What are some ethically good (or at least okay) smartphones on the market at the moment that also perform well? The random crashes of my phone are getting a bit out of hand lately π
I can live with @fairphone.com and Shift phones, just wondering if there are any others I'm missing.

It is unusually cold and icy in Germany since the beginning of the year. Yet I'm still baffled at the inability of most cities to clear sidewalks for people's safety for weeks now. In Berlin the hospitals are even complaining about an alarming amount of people coming in because they slipped on ice.

Feels like Moltbook is yet another proof that humans like to be insulting, especially if they can hide behind something like agents and say "it wasn't me that said it, it was the AI"

I love the field of Web AI!
Models running in your browser can solve so many problems about API based approaches and you can build fun things with it already, e.g. this little physics playground powered by functon-gemma: huggingface.co/spaces/webml...

Sundays are (still) for books. Currently going through this one and it reminds me that you never can imagine the horrors of war until you are in one.

In the unlikely case of ever creating an AGI model, I still feel that it would either just dump all tasks back on us humans or be like Marvin from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (or both)

1. I love to write!
2. I get a lot of satisfaction from putting words in a nice order.
3. I lack the time to do proper writing.
4. I turn to AI to create a nice, smooth text in a short time.
5. The satisfaction I get from it is much lower.
6. I like writing less.
A vicious cycle π

Okay so my plan was to do a week straight of casual, not very controversial posting here to see how this goes and get into a flow.
But ffs US, get your shit together. At the rate this shit show is going I don't see me entering that country any time in the next 3 years (and probably beyond).

Any hacks on actually finishing a side project?
I feel like whenever I get to the point of creating a repo with some structure, a new project idea comes around and feels way more interesting than what I'm working on.

So with all the downskilling articles these days and in fear of my own forgetfulness, I decided it is time I start to only use the command line for git from today.

I can't shake the feeling that something is different in the AI world over the last weeks.
Feels like no gigantic hyped up shit has been going on, which makes me wonder if AI-Hype-companies (especially OpenAI) are running out of material or preparing an even bigger ugly bag of surreal marketing.

ChatGPT image generation seems to make a lot of headlines recently.
So I collected some use cased and experimented a bit myself. As a result I created this (not very serious) presentation, called "The End of Graphic Designers":
