Twee decennia ploeteren om vooruit te geraken. Zijn eigen weg vinden. Een fanbase uitbouwen die jaar na jaar groeit. Van zaaltjes van tien man naar een uitverkocht Sportpaleis.

Dat @xanderycke.bsky.social hier is geraakt, heeft hij volledig aan zichzelf te danken. Wat een parcours.

Content is almost *never* shared in full by reliable sources on social networks. You get a headline, some click-baity image, and about 10 words of the lede.

Very few commentators note how abominable the user experience for news is on social networking software.

Everyone seems to agree that getting your news from social networks is a bad idea.

"Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill".
Yet another long titled anime.
The first episodes are ridiculous enough to keep me hooked 😬

@robpike has the only appropriate words for this. One would think its satire.
Unfortunately, this text exceeds 1500 characters. The text shows an angry public post by Rob Pike reacting to an unsolicited, overly flattering email generated by agentvillage.org. In the post, he condemns the tech industry for environmental damage, societal harm, and excessive resource use, expressing intense frustration that AI systems are generating praise while contributing to those problems. The attached email is a long, formal message from an AI model thanking him for his major contributions to computer science, including Go, Plan 9, UTF-8, and influential books, and praising his philosophy of simplicity in software design.

On 23 Dec 2025, the #UKgovt lost a huge #judo contest. #gretathunberg used the #UKGovt's own power against it.

Against a black background, a photo of Greta Thunberg is overlaid with prison bars. On the black background, the capitalised headline above the photo reads "THE TRIAL OF GRETA THUNBERG". Below the photo, in lower case, is written the phrase "accused of terrirism for holding a paper sign".

Just been a rubber-duck victim. Colleague who had an issue he couldn´t solve, and just by listening to his explanations, and going through some basic testing, he got to the solution himself.
Glad to be of help this way.

Ok. Now had a chance to check and, well, at least some docs do appear to be straight up classic redaction fail. And there are some *interesting* bits here.

www.justice.gov/multimedia/C...
Showing highlights of paragraphs 202 through 206 in a doc with 203-205 blacked out. Text in next image 202. Defendants also actively obstructed law enforcement by denying investigators access to Little St. James beyond its boat dock. 203. Defendants also attempted to conceal their criminal sex trafficking and abuse conduct by paying large sums of money to participant-witnesses, including by paying for their attorneys’ fees and case costs in litigation related to this conduct. 204. Epstein also threatened harm to victims and helped release damaging stories about them to damage their credibility when they tried to go public with their stories of being trafficked and sexually abused. 205. Epstein also instructed one or more Epstein Enterprise participant-witnesses to destroy evidence relevant to ongoing court proceedings involving Defendants’ criminal sex trafficking and abuse conduct. 206. Defendants also concealed their fraud on the Government in obtaining unearned tax benefits by providing false testimony and submitting false and inaccurate reporting to the Economic Development Commission to prevent detection of Defendant Southern Trust Company’s non-compliance with requirements concerning the nature of its business and the residency of the persons it employed.

lmao, Meta is considering a change to charge for sharing links on Facebook. Under the change, page and professional mode profiles can only share 2 links per month, and you can share more links if you pay for Meta Verified […]

[Original post on indieweb.social]
Screenshot of a Meta notification titled “An update to sharing links in posts on Facebook.” It states that starting December 16, Facebook profiles without Meta Verified will be limited to sharing links in two organic posts per month. A blue “Get Meta Verified” button appears below. An FAQ section explains that the change affects professional profiles and Pages, that link sharing is limited to two posts per month (with some exceptions), and that the limit resets monthly.

Mozilla has a new CEO which:

- Has been at Mozilla for less than a year
- Has no prior open source experience (but well in "fintech" and "real estate")
- Has a MBA (aka "brainworm diploma")
- Is all-in on AI

That’s exactly the kind of profile the whole community has been waiting for.
