Hi, yes, welcome to Mozilla Burger. It's true our burgers come with asbestos but the good news is you can pick it off yourself. Look how easy that is. No we can't make a burger without it and let you add it yourself later. Why would we do that?
👋 Hi all, I’m available now for short/medium term engagements.
I can optimize, overhaul, or rework any of:
* CI/CD workflows/pipelines
* deployment processes
* cloud infrastructure
* data pipelines
* API docs
* dev environments
Please DM, or contact me via https://aviflax.dev
A thing that's super frustrating is how the existence of service workers means entire groups of websites (say, all Google service simultaneously) will suddenly stop working unless I go into the Firefox "Task Manager". This is a critical part of using a computer like cmd-opt-esc was in Mac OS 7 or ctrl-alt-del was in Windows 95, but it's not foregrounded as well as it was in those old OSes. The browser recreated a problem from 90s computing but didn't recreate the solutions from that era

me in 2022: make everything a native app, preferably a CLI. no browser apps ever if possible.
me in 2026: I don’t trust anything except my browser or a full VM to open untrusted media in a decent sandbox.
hell has frozen over and I don’t hate the idea of web chat apps, provided they run in an actual browser and not an Electron app.

If you choose not to pay your $100/yr then if you want to write code for a new apple iOS device you need to call technical support to get them to reset your list of allowed devices. It's nuts. But now my flashcard app runs on my phone again.
Anyway, this is one of my favourite flags in my flag deck. Every country (or state or overseas territory) ought to have a flag inspired by Atari Adventure.

I “love” these little AI slop artifacts that creep into all our codebases now… But who knows, maybe in the “We have to clean up the Asbestos mess”-future these can be helpful…
Current favourite in one of ours, deployed in production is in a blocklist:

I wrote about AI again. On some level I don't now why I do this to myself
https://jenniferplusplus.com/what-is-a-token/
Actually, I wrote most of it months ago, for work. But, it was well received, so I put it on my blog. This is the more generic version.
The short version is that AI is not magic. It's a real phenomenon with real behavior and tradeoffs. I'm deeply tired of *****ALL***** the tradeoffs being handwaved away. And so much imagination fills in for the actual behavior. So I tried to describe how it's built, because that informs how it works, which informs what it actually does. And to be clear, it does things. It's not useless. But that's not the same as being useful, or worthwhile.
Anyway, I already put ~4k words on this in the article, so I'll shut up and let it speak for itself.
@jenniferplusplus
Good article! I have a similar stance, as an academic computer scientist. I do have one minor quibble, though: transformers do not generate tokens. They generate a probability distribution of potential next tokens, and are dependent on a "second system" to collapse that distribution into a concrete token. I've demonstrated this here:

I am very confused by how after migrating Mailcow from Alma Linux to Alpine, it is now using significantly less memory 
I mean before it was also somehow memory leaking and I think that stopped too?

📰 Claude Code Remote Controlが登場。ソファでも移動中でも、ローカルセッションをスマホから動かす (👍 87)
🇬🇧 Claude Code's new Remote Control feature lets you access local PC sessions from your smartphone - perfect for coding on the go from couch or train.

Back in December, we had a large outage at work. The internal investigation took a while and the internal report was roughly 40 pages long. For the public, we managed to try and condense it to a much shorter format that we think can still offer useful insights to other organizations:

I am now officially an iNaturalist ambassador 👨🌾🕵️♂️🪿🍄🐝🌻
My first project is organizing a BioBlitz (people come together at a place and identify all the living beings they can find) for the marsh near my apartment.
It's happening on April 25th to coincide with the City Nature Challenge.
It will be co-lead with Ryan Bartlett, a local native bee expert, who'll be bringing fun gear to safely catch insects and ID them.
Our findings will lay the groundwork for more intentional stewardship of that land.
