(last year someone raged about it being embarrassing twee Britishness nonsense and yes, that’s kind of the point, I wanted to establish a ‘day’ and deliberately picked something extremely trivial & uncool. I would probably find it mildly annoying if I hadn’t invented it!)

Hey, so, anyone out there looking to hire a remote nerd? I've spent the past 4-5 years doing threat hunting, detection engineering, threat intel, and incident response for large US West utilities. Gotta be full WFH though due to health reasons. Non-LinkedIn, non-ghost job links appreciated.

Saying an OpenAI agent hacked a government website is like saying a gun killed someone. Let’s be clear about responsibility: OpenAI weaponized its own software, and employees from OpenAI used it to hack an Australian government website.

Running a Mastodon server is becoming increasingly problematic due to GenAI.

There’s multiple different things happening, including but not limited to:

- very aggressive scraping of user content and block evasion, with the resource costs that come with it

- AI agents aggressively trying to register accounts and evade restrictions

- rising cost of RAM - Mastodon is memory hungry, RAM is really expensive now

It’s odd to experience first hand, it’s like being consumed by.. a void.

People should stop calling tech manual "bibles". The Bible is a barely coherent bunch of stories and half-truths, told by illiterate men, packaged together by the powerful to exert political control over the masses. Your average tech manual can only dream of being that

Multiple GNOME contributors have told me that they feel it is pointless to vocally oppose the use of generative tooling and that they feel it is just a matter of time before a pro-slop policy is officially adopted by GNOME.

I want you all to know that the relentlessly anti-AI stance is the popular opinion. If you state your opposition as well, you'll be in good and plentiful company.

Edit: Are you a GNOME contributor who is demotivated by AI? Please reach out.

"AI can escape containment and hack organizations, but you can trust it with your data."

"AI can slip out of alignment and develop prerogatives that conflict with yours, but you should turn important tasks related to your work, health, finances and family life over to it."

"There's a chance AI will lead to extinction, but you should welcome its data centers into your communities."

The cognitive dissonance is unbelievable.

People think the minions router being baller as a joke. But I have extensively tested it and it is one of the best possible Wifi 6E routers money can buy. Like someone at Illumination Studios was like "idk $80" and the router manufacturer was like gotchu fam.
