@JessTheUnstillJess👾 They’ve ripped away much the IRS funding and fired iirc close to a quarter of its workforce, plus replaced part of their code base with whatever DOGE cooked up, and then yanked around a bunch of tax law into very unclear terms (vibe legislating?) which will have to be legally interpreted. Oh, and drew down the Direct File program. All that on top of how complicated it was just last year. This is very much a deliberate attack on anyone who isn’t wealthy enough to hire it out to an office. Increasing the friction ordinary people experience bogs the system down to reduce inquiry into and prosecution of the rich before they can obliterate what remains of the justice system. You’re experiencing this accurately as an attack on your wellbeing, it’s that hard because they’ve made it that hard.

I needed to read this today. Thought someone else might need it too.

ICE killing analysis: A neutral, detailed description of the video footage showing ICE agents killing Renee Nicole Good. It is clear that the ICE agents were the threat, they did not respond to a threat.

Une trend écolo pervertie par l’extrême droite ?

À l’origine, la trend 141 fait référence aux lettres ADA pour Anti Deforestation Action. Mais derrière cette apparente ode à la nature, la tendance est aujourd’hui largement récupérée par l’extrême droite.

In international affairs and politics there is only power. If you grew up with some fantasies about law and principles it's because they were supported by a balance of power and you had trouble seeing it. Without a balance none of these things have any relevance.

December 16 I bought a 512Gb SATAIII SSD thinking to myself: "Ok, I probably don't need it right now, but I know it will get only more expensive with all this AI hysteria. I don't know if I'll be able to buy it in the future". $43 is a bit much for a 512Gb if you ask me, but hey, it's manageable.
Today is January 8 and this same SSD now costs $125 in the same shop.
All this is sadly wrong.
Meanwhile I have to figure out which OS should I install on it.

Only a few understand the dopamine hit that walking into this classroom as a kid delivered.

Maybe ask them why they haven’t supported our work on the Small Web with a single euro cent all these years.

(It doesn’t matter. The Small Web launches to a wider audience this year regardless. I just had to sell two small family homes in Turkey that I would have inherited to make it happen is all.)

🧘 Want to feel better? Here’s why you should quit Meta.👇

Studies show that deactivating Facebook lessens depression, anxiety and loneliness.

Meta’s own internal research project, known as “Project Mercury”, found that stepping away from Facebook had positive effects on users’ mental health.

The project was shut down after these results.

Instead of addressing the findings, Meta chose to look away and protect the filter bubble.

#ChatGPT falls to new data-pilfering attack as a vicious cycle in #AI continues

There’s a well-worn pattern in the development of AI #chatbots. Researchers discover a #vulnerability and #exploit it to do something bad. The platform introduces a guardrail that stops the attack from working. Then, researchers devise a simple tweak that once again imperils #chatbot users.
