the fact that this shit now has an entire foundation, conference, corporate sponsorships, and merch proves that the tech industry is just a never-ending series of grifts in a trench coat
what is even the point of a board if they can't even rein in an extremely destructive CEO

interesting; it looks like Anthropic quietly pulled their donation of $150,000 in AI token credits to Omarchy. they no longer appear as a patron and this announcement post has scrubbed any mention of them. backlash… kind of works sometimes?

@cratermoon@zirk.us yeah, some bullshit about how “when companies pay, candidates become the product”… which, yeah? that’s how employment works. we sell our labor, a product, to an employer who has the budget to pay for labor. like, come on

@brennan@social.lol just in case you’d like ANOTHER reference piece… i dove into why DHH fits the actual definition of fascist about a year ago too https://davidcel.is/articles/the-dhh-problem
RE: https://xoxo.zone/@davidcelis/115232432583137819
since he's making the rounds again, it's probably a good time to re-share my post that shows how DHH has been a racist shitbag (and, yes, actual fascist) for a long time now

the torment nexus has already been opened; you can’t just close it. it’s inevitable
Quoting
Anyone who opposes the rollout of the Torment Nexus is just a social justice warrior!
Open quoted postgetting VC money for what will basically be a tmux replacement is crazy enough but that list of investors is just sooo yikesy. Guillermo Rauch? Lenny Pruss? Tobi Lütke??? Mitchell Hashimoto just continues to disappoint lmao

i always use the same recipe for my sourdough pizza, but i tried a tweak this time and subbed out 20% of the 00 flour for Cairnspring Mills' Trailblazer bread flour and got really good results!! not only was the bread itself way tastier, but i got my first consistently puffy crust
i’ve been wanting to write something like this for quite some time… but now i’m not sure i need to, because @ky.fyi put it to words so much better than i ever could.
i’m right there mourning with you, Ky 😔
i posted this extremely recently, but i guess it just became even more relevant:
just stop using Google. it’s already awful, it’s about to get even worse, and better alternatives exist.
after 20+ years of Googling for free, i never thought i’d pay for search, but i like Kagi enough to do it.
back on my bullshit

i get that it would never make it through the House, but i’m still surprised that i haven’t seen any new calls for impeachment given the massively corrupt slush fund that we all get to pay for with our taxes

@leberschnitzel@existiert.ch @Ashedryden@xoxo.zone i mean what would stop it from essentially pasting a credential somewhere it shouldn’t go? people don’t pay attention when they’re using these tools, so some number of people will just blindly approve the prompts

this is your regular reminder that you shouldn’t trust most influencers about food. unless you love food that looks beautiful and tastes bland. in which case,

some recent VSCode update seems to have started generating a `.devcontainer/devcontainer-lock.json` lockfile, but is it supposed to get checked into version control? i have no idea if it's supposed to be personal or team-wide

i’m not exaggerating when i say that this is nearly every single video (as long as it’s not one where their “guidelines and policies” prevent an AI Overview from being shown)
it is absolutely mind boggling to me that TikTok looked at this feature and said “yeah, ship that”

@pointlessone@status.pointless.one i had a similar thought, especially because the AI chatbot will actually generate a correct overview if i tap through on one of the erroneous ones and say “this isn’t correct”
my main point that it’s absurd for them to have shipped this still stands tho
