@cstross@wandering.shop People keep saying this but LeCunn, Thiel, and Summers are the only names I’ve seen even remotely associated. Like this is the third article presented with this framing that I’ve read in the last several hours and that’s all I can find. I’m hardly a defender of this industry or these people and I’m still totally unconvinced

@jackscottau @geekygirldawn I always liked my friend’s formulation: First you must try, then you must ask. https://www.mattringel.com/2013/09/30/you-must-try-and-then-you-must-ask/

@elizayer@mastodon.social I observe that everybody seems panicked, running, and totally ready to plow over anybody who stumbles in front of them. I’m getting out and glad to be doing so. The wheels can’t finish coming off fast enough, honestly

Christmas: A day set apart by some as a time for turkey, presents, cranberry salads, family get-togethers; for others, noted as having the best response time of the entire year.

@TechConnectify@mas.to This was the article that convinced me that I was sleeping on the value of video and YouTube specifically. And in retrospect I can’t imagine how I ever thought I would rather try to learn how to adjust a door closer (or change a car tire, or do a judo throw, or any of a thousand other things I could learn on YouTube every day) by reading an article https://commoncog.com/youtube-learn-tacit-knowledge/

How to Use YouTube to Learn Tacit Knowledge

How to Use YouTube to Learn Tacit Knowledge

YouTube is the biggest thing to have happened to tacit skill acquisition in the past couple of decades. Here's how to use it.

@ipsquiggle@sunny.garden @TodePond@mas.to The best and most successful marketing is just continuing to share your stuff with people who you think might like it, I have discovered. (To wit: https://youtu.be/UupPvHocUQg —and, I would love to check out your game, I love indie games!)

@TechConnectify@mas.to I think a lot of the Facebook “pivot to video” nonsense was quite specifically nonsense and people hated it because it had people reading articles which had been written as print articles, to camera, slowly, over dubiously relevant b-roll if any, and so of course it was awful and reading the article would have been better. But also of course just as much there’s so much power to the various video forms, done right.

Howdy folks! If you're seeing this message, your Mastodon server didn't process my account migration request. (Most commonly if you're running a third-party server.)

My new account is @kevinr@masto.free-dissociation.com, and I'll be posting there from now on. Give it a follow!

neutron bomb, n.: An explosive device of limited military value because, as it only destroys people without destroying property, it must be used in conjunction with bombs that destroy property.

@SpaceLifeForm@infosec.exchange @evacide@hachyderm.io Why should an adversary bother to do a supply chain attack when every vendor introduces more than enough of these bugs for free?

@SpaceLifeForm@infosec.exchange you don’t have to, literally just power cycling is enough! Though if you want to that obviously works too
