I refresh the page in a new window and get the "click on bridges" prompt again.

So Google is controlling whether you do the app verification?

This can't be good....

Anyway I refuse to download the app as long as I can so I hope this doesn't get used for anything important

I don't love the privacy implications

And I got my first reCaptcha that requires an app.

I already miss clicking on bridges

This is the purest expression of AI development I’ve ever seen: spending $1.3 million dollars in tokens to make a pretty graph showing you how much you’ve spent on tokens.

@cwebber I still buy lots of paper books. But I actually cannot read them anymore.

I need an ereader's ability to enlarge fonts to rather silly sizes.

But with that, I can still read dozens of books a month.

Thank you @gutenberg_org for giving me enough reading material to last me a lifetime.

for anyone who enjoys my posts and is looking for more AI critique, I unfortunately don’t write anything long form

but @kimcrawley and the good folks at @stopgenai do, and they need your support to keep going: https://stopgenai.com/?page%5Fid=110

in addition, @davidgerard’s journalism is indispensable: https://pivot-to-ai.com/2026/05/16/pivot-to-ai-needs-your-support-sign-up-to-the-patreon-today/

posts like mine aren’t possible without the work of activists and journalists. what they do is unprofitable but crucial for the truth to survive.

Maybe it's old person shit but I dunno I love holding a physical book and reading it still. But I especially love not having to use DRM to read books, and I love libraries

Having "just paper" in front of me can be really comforting and can help me tune out distractions and enjoy the material at hand

I really like the Kingston libraries I have visited, and I have spent a lot of happy time in them and reading books I have borrowed from them since I got here

So with Mac mini shipping dates for every model out past mid-June, are we just ordering M4s now and assuming they’ll ship M5 machines if the new ones are announced at wwdc?

PHP[tek] 2026 starts tomorrow in Chicago, and I won't be there.
Not because the schedule doesn't look interesting. A few talks would have caught my attention: event-driven architecture for resilient PHP apps, advanced SQL features most of us quietly ignore, semantic search and embeddings, or the NativePHP track. Even the advanced PHPUnit session sounds like the kind of deep dive I rarely make time for.
But flying thousands of kilometers for a three-day conference just doesn't fit with how I try to live. That's my call, not a criticism of anyone making the trip. Enjoy Chicago, enjoy the talks, enjoy the hallway conversations that often end up being the best part anyway... and share on the Fediverse ^^

Things I wish journalists knew

* If you report the right-wing dogwhistle, without explaining that it's a dogwhistle, all you're doing is right-wing propaganda

* CEO's/powerful people lie, and it's legal to remind your readers of this when you report on another lie

* Running at a loss due to private investment, then regulatory capture, followed by the inevitable rug-pull is the entire "tech" playbook, stop being naive

* Feel-good "success in adversity" articles are actually just victim-blamey

The Burnham/Brexit thing is terrarium of Labour's failure: by not confronting lies in the past, and not being willing to call them out now, they both deprive themselves of real arguments about inequality and come off as triangulating, rather than honest.

This isn't hard; e.g.: "Farage lies about who is making us poorer because dividing people that work is how those who don't escape paying their fair share. He lied then, and it's hurt us for a decade. And he's lying now to cover his tracks."
