The distance between us: are these people together or apart?

Intriguing images abound in Yolanda del Amo’s new book Archipelago, which explores how our longing for closeness coexists with a desire for individuality.

Jesse, Kerry, 2005
Years before it became a public anxiety, Del Amo pictured how technology contributes to isolation even in shared space.


In this photograph a young couple are side by side in separate beds, each staring at a laptop, their faces illuminated by the screens. The wedding portraits of her over his bed and his over hers suggest the novelty of their matrimonial status, yet there is already a lack of affection.

Plus d’un tiers des Français·es utilise l’IA générative tous les jours

next.ink/223463/plus-dun-tiers

C'est comme pour les GAFAM ou la drogue. On fait comme tout le monde et après on ne peut plus arrêter ça devient indispensable.

La première dose est gratuite et super cool, et après arrive la pub. Le contrôle et la surveillance. La perte d'autonomie et de liberté.

Quality, Velocity, Open Contribution — pick two. If you try for all three, you get none — the maintainers burn out, the project becomes unsustainable.
Lua and SQLite picked quality, and dropped both velocity and open contribution.
When your project is mature enough, you can afford to.
For a project like LLVM, open contribution is not optional — so you're really choosing between quality and velocity.
LLM-aided development dramatically increases contribution volume without increasing reviewer capacity.
LLM-aided review may help at the margins — catching mechanical issues, summarizing patches — but the core bottleneck is human judgment.

@meowray FWIW, strongly disagree here.

I think it is entirely possible to have quality, velocity, and open contribution.

I'm not saying there isn't a tradeoff, but I think the above three can be preserved sufficiently.

For example, in LLVM, I think the bigger challenge than quality is that people view "contribution" as _much_ more about "sending a patch" and not "reviewing a patch. As a consequence, the project has lost community and cultural prioritization of code review as an active and necessary part of contribution.

Also, "open contribution" doesn't mean you _have_ to accept contributions. I think a project can still have meaningfully open contribution while insisting contributors balance their contributions between patches and review, and where contributions that are extractive are rejected until the contributor figures out how to make them constructive.

IMO, criteria for sustaining both quality & velocity in OSS:
- Strong expectation of _total_ community code review in balance to _total_ new patches -- this means that long-time contributors (maintainers) must do _more_ review than new patches.
- Strong expectation of patches from new contributors rapidly rising to the quality bar where they are efficient to review and non-extractive.
- Strong testing culture that ensures a large fraction of quality is mechanically ensured
- Excellent infrastructure use to provide efficient review and CI so tests are effective

I think LLVM struggles with the first and last of these. The last is improving recently though!

As someone who still uses IRC daily please understand that telling people IRC is a replacement for Discord is utter nonsense

IRC does not
- let you post images or other files (DCC send doesn't count even if you somehow get it to work)
- show link previews
- do voice chat
- do screen sharing
- have offline messaging capability

Please stop saying IRC is an alternative to Discord. It's not. Or at best it's a very shitty alternative

“I just hope […] this doesn’t scar him for the rest of his life”, says wife of an Irishman being detained by ICE and submitted to what he describes as "torture" in an ICE camp for five months and counting.

His crime? Having a work permit and paying taxes in Boston for twenty years.

This is what Trump calls focusing on "the worst of the worst".

터치스크린을 넣었을 때 장점 : 1. 회사가 원할 때 광고를 넣을 수 있습니다. 2. 소프트웨어 일부 업데이트를 유료화할 수 있습니다. 진짜 그것땜에 터치스크린 한다니까요 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
