🧑🏻🧑🏻🧑🏻🧑🏻🧑🏻🧑🏻🧑🏻🧑🏻🧑🏿🧑🏿 = white genocide

It seems that Anthropic has vibe coded a C compiler. This one is really good!The generated code is not very efficient. Even with all optimizations enabled, it outputs less efficient code than GCC with all optimizations disabled.

If I were a notable person from the US, traveling to the rest of the world to promote things (as indeed I might later this year), I would at this point expect to be asked about the state of politics within the US. Fortunately for me, I've been very public about my "fuck these fascist fucks" stance so I don't think there will be any surprises were I to be asked.

@NfNitLoop no I appreciate it! I want to learn everything out there.

@fromjason Oh, totally agree on the approach. Not trying to FOSS-shame, just curious where y'all landed. 👍

Also, I totally get that using FOSS would be better in principle. But it's a matter of goal setting and making progress.

My goal (The Janky Web) is simple- to reduce the amount of collective time allotted to ad-tech platforms.

My method is simple, too—move people to apps they already have on their phones, and platforms that feel familiar.

@NfNitLoop yup! For now at least, my goal is to just move them. If you find a co FOSS thing let me know I'll check it out

@fromjason Are you just using Apple/Google Photos, or something else? (Wondering if there's some neat FOSS album thing I should investigate for my friends & family.)

Also, meaningless but, I kinda love that she has an acronym for a name. It's kind of badass so long as she likes it.

The Janky Web is any off-label implementation of a social media space where ad-tech can't reach your group.

For example, my family has a shared photo album where we post, like, and comment on photos.

Me and a couple of friends have a shared photo album exclusively for memes.

The goal of the Janky Web is to reduce our collective attention in ad-tech spaces.

Also, I don't know how I feel about the comments like "oh I like AOC but she won't win because of misogyny"

Sometimes it feels like the call is coming from inside the house. Also, the type of misogyny AOC faces is specific to her ethnicity.

If we can't identify the correct bias, how could we ever look inside ourselves to unlearn and relearn?

We're so late in the game and so many of us still haven't identified the problem.

It's not that Democrats aren't fierce. Their affliction isn't a lack of will.

Democrats won't fight for Democratic Socialism, or any populist movement because they are red-blooded capitalists with a stock portfolio and corporate donors who dictate what they can and can't fight for.

So, we need politicians who share our morals and political ideals, fierce or not.

(AOC is the best of the worst so I'll take it.)

Getting someone to adopt anything new is so hard. I've been championing a shared photo album called "Family Photos" for a year now and the family is just now starting to use it.

My mom was texting everyone photos and videos of the family and I'm screaming USE THE SHARED PHOTO ALBUM FOR CHRIST'S SAKE

Trying to teach my mom about shared photo albums and I spent fifteen minutes explaining that no, everyone does not have access to every photo in your photo app.

@fromjason I totally ignore all of those after the several dozenth of the "This bombshell revelation changes everything!!" video. Then you look and it was from six months ago and changed nothing. I have never really thought of them as part of the problem before, just ineffectual noise.

This seems like the same issue I have with the Democratic Party (tm). They present themselves as fighters while they put on the puppet show of a fight while scrupulously avoiding effecting any real change. When progressive politicians actually show an interest in substantial change, the party white blood cells treat it as an infection and attack it.

I was verified prior it being something one would pay for, nor did I ask to be verified; someone at Meta decided I should be verified and thus I was. I am happy to be verified as I am a public enough individual that others have pretended to be me to try to scam others, and it's nice to be able to point to actual "official" accounts on Meta properties. I haven't paid for any of it, ever.

#NoKings invokes “non-violence,” a civil rights term, as an HR policy against civil disobedience and direct action. But, that’s not how Dr. King defined the term.

During Jim Crow, the unlawful act of sitting in a “whites only” diner meant others would retaliate against you, often violently. Non-violence from the Civil Rights era is a discipline that showed us how to respond after scalding hot coffee was thrown in our faces.

Ukraine's defense-tech investment went from $5 million to $105 million in two years. One deal shows why.

Lviv startup Farsight Vision just closed €7.2 million from Axon—the US Taser maker—and investors from five NATO countries. The target: autonomous drone systems built from real frontline mapping tech.

Founded by two students in 2023. Used by 100+ military units today. A former NATO cyber defense chief just joined the team.
