man, it is really hard to write about this $4.7b -- that is b as in billion -- dollar blood plasma donation industry in the US without crying, like.. a lot.

@steveSteve Bate This is exactly the sort of thing I'm hoping we see on the Fediverse

One thing that might need some careful design is: how to scope down the access that each of the C2S-connected apps have? A game for example doesn't need to be able to read all of my/my friends' messages, only game-related ones

I think the work Spritely's been doing could be a good building block for such a generic server

I agree with @julian , algorithmic feeds are not "necessarily" bad.

What's bad is when they are imposed on you and you don't have a way to turn them off (or have no transparency on what they do)

But having ability to setup our own algo with simple rules within our own feed would be awesome

Sweet Mastodon folks, @nau_tilus and I are trying to figure out how to have online MIDI sessions/jams. @manetta at @xpub suggested we'd look into Websockets or WebRTC.
Are there any sound artists, webdesigners or experimental bleepbloopers out there who can help us find the right direction?

have you considered looong pushbutton?

Do you want to hide posts that link to certain websites? You can do this with Mastodon Filters:

1. Create a new filter
2. Add domain names of the sites that you don't want to see links to (e.g. example.com), use new keyword for each domain
3. UN-tick box marked "whole word" for each keyword
4. Save filter

If you're not familiar with using filters, there are easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions for creating filters in the guide at:

The atmosphere has some great labelers that do an amazing job of moderating. But as PDS admins, we do not have a great solution to use these amazing resources. So I created label-watcher. It subscribes to multiple labelers and notifies you if a user on your PDS gets labeled by a watched label.

What if... you had one Fedi account on a generic headless #ActivityPub server that simply hosts and federates your data... and had C2S UIs for microblogging, long form writing, media editing and sharing, link aggregation, games, fitness tracking, and so on, that all used that same Fedi account. Technically, it's a similar concept as ATProto (but no relay and app view) and Solid Pods (but no RDF).

It seems possible... if we can improve the AP C2S API/protocol sufficiently.

Anthropic is putting out this report about DeepSeek at the same time that the administration is reporting that DeepSeek v4 was trained on NVIDIA hardware that evaded export controls. This smells like DeepSeek is going to drop something impactful next week.

This came up a bit over the past week in conversations online, but the way that fixating on short-term productivity in technical work SEEMS good but can actually harm us, is something I've been working on for years.

Really like @b0rkJulia Evans's question about how to field broader fedi interactions escaping containment and becoming a vector for low-grade harassment (or just more generally a mess) to @julian after his talk #FediMTL

AI Added ‘Basically Zero’ to US Economic Growth Last Year, Goldman Sachs Says https://gizmodo.com/ai-added-basically-zero-to-us-economic-growth-last-year-goldman-sachs-says-2000725380 😂😂😂

So far AI has done more damage than adding any true value to productivty unless you consider the following as plus points:

* Getting staff fired
* Stealing journalist, book authors, or artists’ work
* Environment impact
* Hallucinations that caused harm and loss of life
* Creating undressing images of minors and woman
* The list list endless and you have to be psychopaths to like this

Saw a blogger I follow expounding on the value of AI to make everything he does easier and accelerate everything.

I reject the notion that things - anything - needs to be accelerated. That's a pernicious idea that's been created by the tech bros and capitalists to further enslave us.

Everyone needs to slow down. Productivity is a lie.

마냥 길게 보고만 하는 소리고, 그 과정에서 일어나는 시행착오의 혼돈과 과도기적 잘못된 선택이 가져오는 데미지들을 마냥 지엽적인 걸로 치부하는 경향이 있는 말이기는 하겠다. 변화 과정에서 사람은 생각보다 치명적인 실수를 크게 하곤 하니까. 하지만 돌려말해, 그런 수준의 탈선을 저지르지만 않는다면 덜컹거리면서도 그럭저럭 어딘가에는 도달할 거라는 - 그게 뭐 맘에 들지 않는 낯선 곳일지언정 지구의 어딘가이긴 할 거라는 - 조심스러운 낙관이라면 낙관.

그런 변화가 일어나도 어딘가에서 어떤 일에서 '코드의 행간을 읽을 줄 아는' 사람이 필요한 누군가가 필요한 순간은 계속 있을 거고, 지금 컴파일러가 똥을 싸는지 아닌지 분간을 하는 사람이 이따금 필요하듯이 그런 포지션과 지위에서 일을 할 거다. 농도는 줄어들어도 팽창한 볼륨 속에선 총량이 유지될 가능성도 제로는 아니고... (*그만큼의 볼륨 팽창이 가능하냐는 데에는 제법 회의적이긴 함)

수많은 '소프트웨어 제작자'들이 아마 맨손으론 코드 작성을 못하고 끽해야 읽는 정도만 가능한 사람들이고 이게 생산자들의 대부분인 상황이 되는 건 쉽게 상상이 가능함. 혹자는 그게 전반적인 질적 저하를 유발할 거라고 단언하지만, 나는 도구의 발전과 상황의 변화가 서로 피드백하며 일어나는 일이기 때문에 결국 대세적으론 '용납 가능한 질적 수준의 유지' 라는 범위에 구속될 거라고 생각함. 아 물론 마소처럼 국소적으로는 개짓하다가 조지는 곳이 나와서 사람들 신경을 박박 긁겠지만 (롸잇나우 긁고 있고)...

이걸 다 깔아놓더라도 우리 인간이 프로페션으로써 하는 일은 생각만큼 변하지 않을 것 같다. 변하기는 하겠지 - 하지만 그건 축의 이동이지 소멸이나 변화가 아닐 뿐? 과거 [고급언어를 쓰더라도 컴파일된 어셈블리를 보고 어디가 삐끗했는지 볼 줄 알아야]만 제대로 된 '프로그래머' 소리를 듣다가 이제는 그렇지 않다고 하면 그것도 참이지만, 어셈블리 레벨에서 일어나는 일을 이해하는 프로그래머에게 가치가 없냐고 하면 그렇지도 않잖은가. "깡코딩을 할 줄 모르면..." 에서 비슷한 시프트가 일어나도 골자가 딱히 바뀔 것 같진 않다.
