The other day I posted a part of a rough draft of an essay I've been working on as a thread here. I've been trying to finish this draft for, honestly, months but I never manage to motivate myself to finish it
Anybody who looks past the obvious ethical and structural issues with LLMs is not going to care about how much of a disaster it is for overall productivity or quality from a modern management perspective
So it remains half-written in my drafts

Just made several big updates to NeatIRC, our home-grown IRCv3 web client! It’s still glitchy and missing key features, but it’s nicer than it was a couple of months ago. Currently hard-wired to irc.social.lol, but if you’re an omg.lol member you can give it a spin! https://neatirc.social.lol

Mastodon FeedHey, if you have felt inspired by the community on display in Minnesota, and you want to watch some movies that preach the opposite of that, that people are fundamentally monsters and that there's nothing wrong with stepping on someone's face if it gets you into the lifeboat one second faster, watch "Greenland (2020)" and "Greenland 2 (2025)". Also bad physics and worse geography. If that's also your jam.

The feds will sue if/when state enforces a law like this against them. But every state should pass such a law. The American Civil War II demands legislation like this from every state committed to fighting Republican Fascism.

Chuck Schumer is working towards some waffle bullshit “compromise” where ICE pinky promises to be less nazi-ish, and taxpayers cough up another $10 billion to fund the guys beating the fuck out of people and shooting people on the street.
Chuck Schumer is a fucking coward, a collaborator, and an accomplice.
