most people look at the xz exploit and see a problem, but i see opportunity. i say let the nsa and the pla provide funding and labor for our open source projects. they'll slip in the occasional backdoor, but it's a small price to pay for sustainable open source

- votes libertarian
- pro gun control and all drugs should be banned
- lsd/cocaine invented by the military
- iraq/afghanistan wars were good

a rant about remote work (software edition)

remote work is a tug-of-war about the hours of the day and the brainspace allocated to work, a tacit negotiation between employer and employee about the time you spend on work and related rituals

noooooooooooo not again will someone please put an end to this vile language

"mores"
i’ve spent a lifetime learning all the exceptions and the exceptions to the exceptions, and still live in constant fear of learning that some common word is actually pronounced the least sensible way

Isn’t half the point of bsky that centralized moderation is an unsolvable problem? Only a tiny fraction of the network seems interested in this at all. Sad!

rebranding again, meta abandons the metaverse to focus on the smoked meat vertical. zuckerberg himself is supervising the transition from his backyard

custom feed algos will only take the interests of the user into account, and not the interests of the network

will new accounts end up completely excluded from common algos? will normies choose the most rage-inducing algorithms? will we have fewer common memes to shitpost about?

i have a vibecamp ticket but idk if i'm gonna go. what if i like it? what if i don't like it? the prudent choice would be to stay at home and not take the risk

i may be the emotional equivalent of a prude but parasocial relationships weird me out. subskeeting a SW lady on here who sent out cute little care packages to viewers

it fills a void and makes people happy. but haven't we fucked up a little bit by outsourcing care/connection to internet strangers?
