I learned a new word today.

'Binfluencer'

That's the guy on your street who puts the correct bin out early each week, thus signalling to everyone else which one they need to take out.

It's also interesting because it gives me a sense of what happens when beginners use AI to write formal specs. It's not good.

#Pontypool, but you get it from chatting with LLMs.

🤔 … this sort of explains all the people trying to get me to talk with LLMs lately.

For greater safety, please avoid summarizing this warning via your chatbot.

Meta acquired Moltbook, the AI agent social network that went viral because of fake posts:

"Moltbook is joining Meta Superintelligence Labs, a Meta spokesperson told us. Moltbook creators Matt Schlicht and Ben Parr will join the team as part of the acquisition. Deal terms were not disclosed."

Didn’t one of the founders already go to OpenAI? https://techcrunch.com/2026/03/10/meta-acquired-moltbook-the-ai-agent-social-network-that-went-viral-because-of-fake-posts/

The AppView is such a large uncontrollable, unpredictable expense. The larger Bluesky gets, the more expensive it is for other nodes like Blacksky.

Interesting insight on what it costs to run Blacksky

If an LLM is used for military purposes, then the datacenters hosting the LLM become legitimate military targets.

the thing that the BLITs and the Snow Crashes of the world did not forsee was that the basilisk would be slow rather than fast, that you'd have to *keep* staring at it for months, and that people would willingly do so, mostly because although it tore their minds apart, it was also moderately helpful for making low-complexity web apps and planning relatively simple administrative tasks

@cstross This is how they get us.

Writers would never use AI-generated slop writing, but they'll happily use AI-generated slop imagery.
Artists would never use AI-generated slop imagery, but they'll happily display art to AI-generated slop music.
Musicians would never use AI-generated slop music, but they'll happily use AI-generated slop writing for lyrics.

(And nobody cares about AI-generated slop code.)

My dude you can pick up your phone right now and just make a movie. The reason why you don't doesn't have anything to do with technology.

Zach has done such a good job that I'm along for the ride no matter what. I made my favorite website ever using #11ty. fromjason will always be an 11ty / Build Awesome site. Though I will miss the 11ty branding. The name rolls off the tongue.

Look forward to a few years down the road where I can smugly say "real ones know it's real name is 11ty"

Given how core MS, Github, AWS and co are, and their YOLO in the AI code approach. We are probably months out from an utterly catastrophic AI driven availability or security related incident.

More and more convinced that the technocrats’ assertion that “AI” will take all of our jobs is a projection of their fear of a general strike.

don't recommend reading the thread. there are a lot of true believers. many simply think that anyone not using AI is going to fall behind in utility, but there are a number of people who insist it is their right to AI slop all over projects that have expressly said do not.
