It’s so depressing how quickly as a society we crossed the Rubicon from “plagiarism is bad” to “mass everyday use of the plagiarism machine is good and inevitable and if you don’t get with the program you’re worthless.”

It’s so hard to be a person attempting to live with integrity in this world at this time. The grind is just constant.

British Columbia passed a law that they're done with biennial DST changes starting next year and a bunch of people are fauxpset that they picked "permanent DST" as the solution instead of "permanent standard time."

As someone who, for a long time, was in charge of scheduling games for his local baseball association, let me tell you that "permanent standard time" would be a disaster for summer-time organized sports. All of your fields without lights would instantly become pretty much unusable if the sun sets at 7:30 instead of 8:30 in July.

Your circadian rhythms will be fine, you ninnies -- your young parents won't be if Jimmy can't play his favourite game any more because his local municipal budget doesn't have any money to install floodlights.

More news out of : Edge Impulse Studio is now fully integrated in the Arduino App Lab, the IDE that lets you write programs that can make use of both the application-class Linux-based and real-time microcontroller chips on the Arduino UNO Q.

For AI.

No, wait, come back! It's the good kind! Machine learning! You can use it to train machine learning models on your own ethically-sourced data and run them entirely on-device.

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!

My personal request: if you see a headline that makes you feel a strong emotion, you should think about whether it’s actual for at least 20 seconds before boosting or typing out your opinion

It's simplistic to replace "user" with "person" in technical discussions. Not every person described in a technical document is an end user; some are administrators, developers, designers, data objects, or other kinds of people. "User" is a role in technical systems, not a derogatory term, and we shouldn't treat it as such.

@evanEvan Prodromou My answer is a "No" without a but. Any form of classification or algorithmic unpacking reflects intent. Intent with bias. That cannot be seen or changed. No matter how much we try. That's at least my lesson based on many years of experience. And yes, I am fully aware that my personal timeline also reflects a lot of bias based on the people I follow. But that is ultimately a good thing in a world of disinformation and clickbait.

@jwildeboerJan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange: What if the bias is on the users' part?

For example, if I create a list in Mastodon with the accounts of my close friends, that is an attempt on my part to stay better connected to those people and not lose their updates in the flow of the hundreds of other accounts I follow.

This is biased -- it assumes that a clearer view of my friends' posts will improve our relationships, and it also assumes that I know who my real friends are. But that's up to me to decide.

RE: writing.exchange/@ernie/116172

so Apple is selling the MacNeo with specs similar to the Dell Inspiron with soldered 8GB of RAM of 10 YEARS AGO?

why drop $600 on a laptop when you can get a used Dell laptop for 50 bucks at a Goodwill store?

oh, the keyboard is backlit, has more ports and the display is a touchscreen.

i know, cuz i use one for the “smart tv” i dumbed down on purpose to avoid the fuckery of Roku’s & TCL’s spyware.

Letecký dopravce Ryanair obnoví své spoje do Jordánska, jakmile Evropská agentura pro bezpečnost letectví rozhodne, že je opět bezpečné tam létat.
🗣️ Šéf irských aerolinek Michael O'Leary to podle serveru Zdopravy․cz řekl v reakci na dnešní tvrzení českého premiéra Andreje Babiše.
💬 Babiš v Poslanecké sněmovně zmínil, že se Ryanair „vykašlal“ na lidi na letišti v jordánském Ammánu. Babiš současně vyzval aerolinky, ať pošlou letadla na Blízký východ, kde uvázli Češi kvůli válečnému konfliktu.

A ground up rewrite of a project transitively used by millions would be extremely concerning even without AI usage.

It raises serious questions of stewardship and the responsibility of project maintainers to not create unnecessary churn for downstream consumers.

Maybe this instance will be ~fine.

Maybe other projects get used to doing python3/vue3 level backwards compatibility breaks every few releases.
