TIL that `git` commands which allow you to apply `-` will ALWAYS do this filtering before `--reverse` or other ordering adjustements

so in order to query the commit details for "oldest known commit that touched this file" you have to do some harebrained thing like:

`git log -1 $(git rev-list --reverse HEAD -- some/file | head -1)`

Careful everyone there's this scam going around where people buy up all the means of production and try to get you to work on them for less than the value of your labor. You're basically paying them to work

OK, AMERICAN MEDIA, YOU’VE GOT SOME EXPLAINING TO DO.

(Astonishing that no one charted this so clearly before. And don’t expect it to be a lead story anywhere. It’s an indictment of journalism in general.)

Applauding @admin for taking a strong, well-argued stand on this.

Can we get more admins onboard?

Speaking of robot bartenders.

... You're the first person to even mention Cocktail Robotics to me in I-can't-remember-how-long. So it's not as if people are banging on the door asking me "Hey, when's that coming back, I've got a cool idea..."

And, oh wow, can you imagine what an AI-slop shitshow it would be now? Half the entries would be "I made a vending machine that can talk like a sexy secretary, I think we might try to get VC funding for this"....

I see that with springtime and being out doors, anti-homeless rhetoric is on the rise again.

Just remember who around you has been homeless will absolutely surprise you, and they will hear you when you say callous, stupid things

A slopfondler walks into a bar.

Once or twice a month some tech industry guy recognizes me at DNA Lounge. It always used to be *blah blah* Mozilla *blah blah* Code Rush, whatever... but lately all they want to do is proselytize "AI" at me. This has been 100% of fanboy interactions this year. And then they're shocked when I don't want to hear about their awesome project and in fact I tell them that what they are doing is unethical and harmful...

in 2016 I made a comic titled “Mr. Gotcha” that would become most viewed and circulated image I’d create.

Now it is the subject of a book by @glennf examining its history in online discourse. That One Matt Bors comic is live on Kickstarter—back it here:

@aredridel A lot of the discourse seems to be confused as to whether AI is a tool or not - this sort of take feels to me like gatekeeping around using table saws instead of hand tools.

Life imitates Carpenter once more.

On Thursday, I hosted a screening of *They Live*. And then today this happened. Racist, election-denying, insider-trading, fascist, methane-breathing space ghoul "Coach" Tommy Tuberville busts out the Hoffman lenses.

People keep describing things as "mask off" but this is just getting ridiculous.

It's a community-owned alternative to bandcamp.

Let the music makers/publishers/listeners in your life know that there exists a place where we don't have to be shackled by for-profit corporations.
