Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.
The Verge is actually doing it. Actually connecting the dots between the fascistic tendencies of app stores with the profit motives of their proprietors.
FINALLY.
The open web has been roadkill in the profit games the mobile duopoly has set up, muscled out of view with policies and choices that were designed to leave no fingerprints. But we can all see it clearly now:

Study finds women use gen AI less than men not due to gaps in skill, but bc they view it as harmful to mental health, employment, privacy & the environment. This is not misplaced: AI has significant energy demands and risks of bias and misinformation.

I saw LLMs compared to a drug in this toot, but in conversation with Himself today we concluded it's like a cursed amulet.
You *believe* it gives you +10 INT. Meanwhile it drains INT and WIS over time, and you don't notice.
Everyone around you knows it's bad for you and generally for the realm, but you won't stop wearing it, they're just jelous of your newfound powers, and they would know how awesome it is if they only tried! Why won't they try? Just try the amulet!!

Today's Search Engine and Hard Fork podcasts were super fun to listen to!!
Excited that 
@CaseyCasey Newton 
@kevinKevin Roose and 
@pj are building their own Mastodon instance called the Forkiverse.
And I absolutely loved the vibe coding experiments Casey and Kevin did to make their own personal web sites (cnewton.org and kevinroose.com)
Feels like we are taking some of the best aspects of the internet we loved and lost and bringing them together with new tech in ways that are incredibly promising for the internet going forward. Bravo.
Must listen.

Catching up on @TIBtv - really enjoying the creativity. Especially enjoying Animation Array episode B tonight. Lots of humour and storytelling in these animations. https://robertafidora.com/animation-array#playlist #TIBTV #music #fedimusic

@TheEntityEntitas the other gnome user cope I enjoy is that they call it a "powerful keyboard driven interface", which I think just means you can't click on anything because the Devs deleted all the buttons
@kyle_pegasusKyle @davidgerard @EF @Tubemeister @TheEntityEntitas
The GNOME project will finish when they reach their final aim: The UI with a single button used by a single mouse button, and when you click on the button, it will tell you "You're doing it wrong" and close itself.

I vaguely remember signing up as a Hilton Rewards Member in grad school to get discounts when I was traveling for interviews. Just cancelled the account and told them exactly why.

@hittitezombierandom thoughts @kyle_pegasusKyle @davidgerard @EF @Tubemeister @TheEntityEntitas Bold assumption that a FLOSS system will ever finish as opposed to hit the 30% done mark at which point there is enough tech debt and complexity accumulated from absorbing the actual variety in the user base without cheating that hacking on it is no longer "fun" so someone gets the bright idea to rewrite it all "so it' simpler" and restart the cycle.

I know not with what language GNOME 3 was written, but I know GNOME 4 will be written with sticks and stones.
Can you suggest accounts to follow that post frequently? Our goal is to optimize Home timeline loading during sync. Thanks for your suggestions

I went to Seattle for SEAGL a couple of months ago. I took the Link light rail from SeaTac to the university district where my hotel was. The train was about half full. I spent most of the time on my phone catching up on Fediverse posts, texts and email.

Friends, this is the coolest thing I have ever seen and you should see it too. A guitar amp labelled entirely in braille. #accessibility #blind #blindness #braille
In the NYT interview published yesterday, Trump openly admitted that his thirst for Greenland is not about military necessity, national security or business opportunities but simply his psychological need to own it.
I think that Trump is looking to secure his legacy as the (in his own mind at least) greatest president ever and adding Greenland would not only make America greater, literally, but also make it a bit bigger than Canada. In other words, a pure vanity project.
