I learned recently about zizmor which audits your GH Actions.

TIL there is a GH-Action for it but it updates the GH Security Section with findings! 🤔

Make sure your kids see this graph https://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=2436

SMBC graph of life satisfaction over time (age), blue line "nerds", red line "most people", where the red line peaks at age 30 then slowly declines, whereas the blue line is under the red one until about age 45, where it keeps going up and up no matter the age ;) https://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=2436

Very funny screw up by Meta. They installed a keylogger on employees PCs, so they could train their AI. However they exposed the collected data online, so anybody could see what anybody who works there has been typing.

My incoming mail pile today includes several thousand dollars worth of inconveniently tightly bound NFPA fire safety codes festooned with keep off the grass signs. I also got the latest comic book from @pluralistic.

A table on my porch is where the new mail sits. There is uncanny Valley from Cory Doctorow. Yippee! Also a dozen NFPA fire codes.

Greetings fellow kids!

We just released v0.21.3 of #GoToSocial, aka Most Sacrilegious Sloth:

https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases/tag/v0.21.3

This is the last bugfix + dependency update release for v0.21.x!

We recommend everyone currently on v0.21.2 or lower update to this release, as it contains some important bugfixes related to exif data stripping and malformed AP messages causing mischief.

If you're updating to this version from v0.21.x, it's a very easy update with no db migrations.

If you're updating to this version from a version before v0.21.0, please follow the update instructions from v0.21.0, but replace 0.21.0 with 0.21.3 throughout. Be aware that the update to 0.21.x contains some database migrations. Please do read the notes carefully!

Don't switch to this version from current (25 Jun 2026) snapshots or v0.22.0 release candidates. They already have everything that's in here (and more).

  • Video processing fixes.
  • Updated robots.txt to tell more bullshit crawlers to fuck off.
  • Fixed some streaming API stuff.
  • Bug fixes related to exif stripping and malformed AP messages.
  • Dependency updates.

Thanks for reading!

It was about 2.5 hours of bot-sitting. About $40 of tokens.

....

So I wrote the code myself. Took 2 hours tops with Zed's very useful autocomplete. I was happier with the code I wrote. I knew it. And then I asked Claude to take a look at it. It sycophantically commended my work and pointed out "used the wrong variable here" (which both had the same type, so yay for type safety, eh?). I was much happier with this model. It cost the company less.

from a fan of it:

Present-day models tend to produce code that is too defensive, too complex, too local in its reasoning. They avoid strong invariants. They add fallbacks instead of making bad states impossible. They duplicate code, invent bad abstractions, and paper over unclear design with more machinery.

and my particular favourite

Now there is obviously a question if this desire to understand the code is one that I will still have a few years from now.

@penpot Is that "responsible, human-centered AI integration" here with us in the room?

Sorry, I really like Penpot, I cherish that an open source alternative to Figma exists. But recently your posts are all about MCP and now you come with this whitewashing... no. Don't. Stop that. If you understood the main complaints about LLMs, you'd know that there is no "responsible" way to integrate them. It's still a trap, it's still built on stolen data, and it still corrupts people's brains.

@tomjennings @jonny LA was making faster progress (measured as progress rather than existing achievement) than the SF Bay Area for some years there.

The D line was stymied by rich folks in BH fighting it every step of the way. And Garcetti and Bass rolled back progress LA had been making generally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%5FLine%5FExtension#Prior%5Fopposition%5Fand%5Fhalt%5Fof%5FWilshire%5Fbranch

I'd add that what helps things get better is showing up consistently for active transportation activism. BikeLA and many other coalitions in LA need donations and members. https://www.la-bike.org/chapters

ActiveSGV has been having a lot of success improving things in the San Gabriel Valley. https://www.activesgv.org/get-involved#donate

There's also the Bus Riders Union https://thestrategycenter.org/projects/bus-riders-union/ #LosAngeles #BikeTooter

Also, don't do what MAGA did which *allowed them to control all three branches of the government and make the enormous social and economic changes they've desired for decades with little or no opposition* is not quite the winning argument you think it is.
