Roland Mimi Ngoy from *Dignité RDC*:
*"The role of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is fundamental: we provide the raw materials. What comes from Congolese soil is then decided by governments—where it goes, who buys it, etc. But we play NO other role; it is very sad."*

ngl, one reason i am not going to start using LLMs (besides all the other reasons) is that literally everyone i've ever encountered who goes all-in on slopcoding ends up talking like a fucking cult evangelist about them, and i'm not interested in becoming a fucking cult evangelist.
like even the (very) few slopcoders that i actually still like and mostly respect: i don't think y'all understand how incredibly fucking creepy you sound all the time!

At #msc2026 Youssef M. Ouled from 
@AlgoRace explaining their research on racist & militarist uses of AI, like in ‘Lavender’ (the AI machine directing Israel’s bombing in Gaza) and biases in new uses of AI by Spanish police, where cops adopt similar to ICE algorithm-guided tools for making decisions on spot about "who is more violent". Also about collective efforts like the citizen's-AI coalition: https://iaciudadana.org/ for forcing EU to make deliberative calls and deliberation with citizens
who called it casting with verbal but absent somatic or material components and not “speak and spell”

the bad neighbor has loudly announced to the building group chat that they would rather block fiber internet installation to all 36 units indefinitely than allow a technician into their apartment for five minutes, as they have a god-given right to privacy
so how many skeletons do you think we're talking?
The infrastructure phase of AI governance has begun. Recently, CC attended the AI Impact Summit in Delhi, and what became clear is that AI governance is shifting. The conversation is moving beyond high-level principles and into harder, more structural questions about infrastructure, stewardship, and power.
Read our reflection on the biggest takeaways from Delhi and what we believe is CC's critical role in filling a global implementation gap.

The implementation of Typent starter packs, inspired by BlueSky, is now complete.
For TYPENT users, consent is required. When you add someone, they receive a notification asking them to accept or decline. They are only added once they accept.
For accounts on other Fediverse servers, they are added directly, since other platforms do not yet support a consent flow for this feature. Once they do, we will update this to require their approval as well.

I started working on my implementation of #audio and #music production software (aka DAW) called Maolan. It supports #FreeBSD and #Linux, with experimental support for #Mac and #Windows. I am currently working on support for #NetBSD and #OpenBSD. When I get it to work on all the mentioned OSes at least in virtual machine, #Solaris is next. Once the core architecture is in place, contributions will be more than welcome. Stay tuned.

I’ll have much more to say about the MacBook Neo next week on Mac Break Weekly, but my early critique is that even tho I’m a fan of this, we shouldn’t pretend that at its core, this isn’t a $300 Chromebook being sold for $600. The $300 premium is prob worth it for a subset of buyers. I love expanding the ecosystem to more people. But this is still a very expensive Chromebook with way worse connectivity and more storage. Yes, it runs macOS but…

Hi, can anyone give me some pointers around learning coding on the #AtariST ? I picked up a copy of Atari ST Internals, going to get a 68000 book, but any tips on setting up an assembler/coding environment, that sort of thing. I have very, very little assembly-language programming experience. Many thanks #demoscene #programming

I've broken down the risks and potential response to California's new(ish) Digital Age Assurance Act. It has a giant open source gap that, if fixed, could allay many concerns.
Swift’s ownership tools don’t just help our users. They also help library authors keep themselves honest. When we lend a precious resource to a user’s closure, we wrap it in ~Escapable so it cannot outlive that closure.
