I listened to the two original seasons of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy again. I found them bizarrely prescient for 1978. One example: the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation installing AI into every product against the wishes of users.

Why isn't there more shouting about this? This is the USPS undermining mail-in ballots. They find every opportunity to subvert voting and democracy.
Ballots, tax returns and other important mail may not get postmarked the day you turn it in, USPS warns

Aus aktuellem Anlass:

Wenn dich Gedanken, Sorgen oder Gefühle stark belasten: Du musst da nicht allein durch. Wende dich an Freunde, Familie und Bekannten denen du vertraust und wo du dich sicher fühlst.

Oder an folgende Stellen:

- TelefonSeelsorge: 116 123 (24/7)

Chat & Mail: https://www.telefonseelsorge.de

- Nummer gegen Kummer (Kinder & Jugendliche): 116 111

https://www.nummergegenkummer.de

- Akuter Notfall: 112

Hilfe anzunehmen ist ein wichtiger Schritt.

"The share of U.S. counties where 95 percent or more of kindergartners were vaccinated against measles — the number doctors say is needed to achieve overall protection for the class, known as 'herd immunity' — has dropped from 50 percent before the pandemic to 28 percent, according to The Post’s examination of the public records from 44 states and the District of Columbia."

Any plans for a reunion tour? I'd love to hear a cover of "Wannabe." 😉

#39c3 Talks angucken und am Englisch der Vortragenden scheitern. *Bitte* nutzt doch @c3lingo anstatt mich mit euren Schulenglisch-"Skills" zu quälen 😭

Ich hab ja Bock auf euren Content aber doch nicht so.

📅 Friends, NO Office Hours this week, but we'll probably be back next Friday.

I'm using the time to finish migrating all of my websites over to blue+green deploys on Coolify and a bunch of random things I never make time for like moving my website from Jekyll + GitHub pages over to Django.

Politicians:
Terrified about citizens that might be sending private messages they cannot read on Signal -> Sudden panic about "protecting the children" 🙃

Also politicians:
Grok AI Chatbot collects data and asks for nudes from a 12-year old -> AI is innovation! We should invest billions in taxpayers money in it! 💰💰💰

I love @phanpy but I'm vibe coding a AP app that vibes more with Tweetdeck. Stay tuned.

We had "Pimp Your Cat-Ears" at #39C3, but when do we get "Pimp Your Cat-Girl"?

I've been daydreaming of a neural nets powered note-taking system for a while so I can see at a glance the dependencies of each task. I love how this turns an otherwise dead-system into a livecoding environment.

@ariadneAriadne Conill 🐰 curated relevant content that is more human than text only feeds. It’s more engaging to respond to a comment with a video and the comment super imposed in the video for example.

I wrote a For You algorithm that is really popular on Loops because people love content they are interested in.

Tl;dr: video is more authentic than text, seeing the person and emotion with video makes it more engaging.

If you see something you like on here, don't be scared to give it a favourite ⭐ !

If you really like something, you might want to also boost it 🔁 (which shares it with your followers).

There is no algorithm on here, so you can like and share whatever you want without any additional side effects.

Your timeline on here is entirely in your direct control, it isn't going to push stuff at you or hide stuff just because you liked or shared something.

@JenJenJenJen SNAP

so after being bedridden for 16months due to a hernia, I've finally got my surgery!
now I'm bedridden for recovery, fun!

I'm still about 1400$ away from paying my electricity bill, so if you've got a couple dollars, it'd help me get through this last stretch. Thanks so much!

I am increasingly convinced that a lot of companies no longer consider people using their product to be a viable market. Instead, they pursue feature sets desired by some population that is, itself, self-selecting.

"This feature is very popular with our user base" without understanding that the people who absolutely do not want that feature will simply stop using your product or service.

Think the "Survivorship Bias Plane", but for software and hardware.
