RE: social.vivaldi.net/@everton137

Has anyone here come across Venezuelans on the Fediverse? I personally know only one Venezuelan refugee, and they live in Brazil.

If we don’t have a meaningful presence from the Global South or from other vulnerable regions, that, to me, exposes one of the key limitations of this social space.

Are we, in fact, just a small, relatively privileged group talking mostly among ourselves?

@fasnix @C_OttenburgCarola Ottenburg @kaffeeringeSteffen Voß Installing Google apps on GrapheneOS installs those as regular sandboxed apps with no special access or privileges whatsoever exactly like any other apps you install. GrapheneOS provides a compatibility layer enabling Google Play to run as sandboxed apps in the standard app sandbox. A common misconception is that we provide a special sandbox for it or that it requires using a secondary user, work profile or Private Space in order to contain it. That's optional.

Super Talk von Meredith Whittaker und Udbhav Tiwari von Signal über die Gefahren und Probleme von "agentic AI", also Hilfsprogramme, die mittels "KI" Aufgaben erledigen sollen.

Faire la morale, la morale chrétienne, être moralisateur, donneur de leçon : la morale a mauvaise presse.

Mais j’ai l’impression que quand on parle d’éthique, les gens entendent ou comprennent morale.

Alors que pour moi, la morale, c’est surplombant, inflexible, top-down, alors que l’éthique, c’est un chantier permanent, une réflexion, notamment sur ce qui est moral ou non, personnel et donc bottom-up.

Et l’intégrité, c’est être fidèle à son éthique.

Bref, pour vous :

세상이 미쳐돌아갈수록, 미쳐버린 세상이 일상을 무한정 침식하게 놔두지 않는 것도 중요하다는 생각이 듬. 우리는 할 수 있는 데까지 선량하고 민주적으로 우리의 일상을 삽시다. 누릴 수 있는 것을 누리되 할 수 있는 노력을 다합시다. 절망하지 말고 살아냅시다. 그래야 소진과 냉소를 멀리하고 건강하게 투쟁할 수 있음.

Heya! I just released XenoAtom.Terminal github.com/XenoAtom/XenoAtom.T, a modern replacement for System.Console for .NET CLI/TUI apps. 🎉

It keeps a familiar Console-like feel, but adds the terminal-native stuff System.Console doesn't cover well: ANSI/VT styling + markup, unified async input events (keys/resize/mouse/paste), restore-on-dispose scopes (raw/cbreak, alternate screen, hide cursor…), clipboard, a rich ReadLine editor, & testable backends, built on top of XenoAtom.Ansi ✨

here's a thesis: joy is power. it threatens authority. therefore, authorities strive to control it.

it is telling to then see where joy and its instruments are expressly permitted, and where they are being suppressed.

there is a history to joy. the counterculture movement was suppressed precisely because it started out as joyful.

and it is understandable then why minority issues co-opted symbols of joy: the rainbow. the word "gay".

but this is just a thesis. i'm still building it.

Im Silicon Valley werden tabakfreie Nikotinbeutel teilweise kostenfrei an die Mitarbeitenden abgegeben. Man hört immer mal wieder, dass Nikotin in der Tech Bro Szene als Wundermittel gepusht wird, das zu Höchstleistungen führt. Man stelle sich dies nun ein einer SciFi-Dystopie vor: Mitarbeitende schleppen sich träge zwischendurch zu einem Automaten, wo kostenlos eine süchtigmachende Aufputsch-Droge abgegeben wird. Zu stimmig dieses Bild. Zu stimmit.

Dass Merz auf Arme, Linke, Minderheiten, Nicht-Deutsche, Nicht-Weiße losgeht, aber Reiche in Ruhe lässt und Trump mit Samthandschuhen zuwinkt, ist kein Wunder und auch kein Zeichen von Schwäche, sondern Absicht. Er ist extrem rechtskonservativ.

一つはっきり言えるのは、この人は屑っぽいことを言うチャンスを逃さないということである。

This chart shows the total number of Stack Overflow questions asked each month. As you can see, AI summaries in Google and AI coding tools have nearly killed the site. It is only a matter of time before the site shuts down completely. The golden age of independent news, blogs, forums, and specialized sites like Stack Overflow is over. Whether this is good or bad, only time will tell. Personally, I think we are now restricting all internet traffic to just a few Gen AI apps data.stackexchange.com/stackov

This result shows s the total number of Stack Overflow questions asked each month. THE SQL query is https://data.stackexchange.com/stackoverflow/query/1926661#graph:
```
SELECT
    DATEFROMPARTS(YEAR(CreationDate), MONTH(CreationDate), 1) AS [Month],
    COUNT(*) AS [Questions]
FROM Posts
WHERE 
    PostTypeId = 1
GROUP BY 
    DATEFROMPARTS(YEAR(CreationDate), MONTH(CreationDate), 1)
ORDER BY 
    [Month] ASC
```

The graph shows the number of questions asked on StackOverflow over time, from the site's launch in 2009 until now, the start of 2026.
Initially there is a steady increase until 2014, when the number hits an all-time peak at over 200 000 questions. Then begins a slow decline. This might be correlated with StackOverflow's change of moderator policies at the time.
In early 2020 there is a sudden steep increase, which coincides with the start of the Covid-lockdown, but shortly afterwards the decline continues, faster than before. This might be related to the fact that in mid-2021, StackOverflow was sold to a private equity investor.
In late-2022 begins a very steep decline, which is when ChatGPT (and Google AI summary later on) came out. Since then the decline has continued and today the number of questions asked is almost 0.  (Thanks https://mastodon.social/@lethe@digitalcourage.social for additional alt text)
