i don't resent llms but this is real
part of my resentment towards LLMs is to do with them crowding out anything else we could be talking about. there are so many things I could be reading to get better at my craft but I'm presented with "you should actually get worse at it on purpose because nothing matters any more"

So far, CTV News, CityNews 570, and the Waterloo Region Record have not interviewed a single Indigenous, Black, Asian or Jewish person about why they might object to the return of Wilmot's Prime Ministers Path statues.

This is a basic obviosity but there's no reason to not simply state that Trans people were degraded and dehumanized by Trump last night to waves of applause. Everyone saw it, it was disgusting, it made me fear for friends and family, and this rhetoric can't ever be considered normal or okay.

Folks in Ontario get out to vote. Remember that Doug Ford made a big hoopla about cancelling a $100 million deal with Elon Musk. It was back on the table within hours.
No wonder Elon is taunting us.
Get out and vote.

It's weird how everyone in the world knows a Nazi salute when we see it, with the notable exception of journalists and their editors.

Not the front runner… in fact he has lost the momentum over the last 2 months… he has no administrative experience and lacks the articulation except throw threats on carbon tax.. it’s no longer a carbon tax.. it’s a surgical governing of the economy and rebuilding over the dependency we have on US…

How lazy and disengaged do you have to be not to show up for a *virtual* candidates discussion? You don't even have to bloody travel! If they won't turn up when they want something from you - your vote - they sure as hell won't be around when you need something from them.

Countries run by racist tin pot dictatorships and constantly threatening war with their neighbors are often unpopular.

On the off chance there are people who follow me who don’t already know how stupid he looks when he talks about computing, this is what Elon Musk sounds like, word salad funneled through an impossibly huge megaphone by and idiot.
Omg i just discovered that the nation’s social security database is just a file called todo.txt on Jeff’s laptop! Someone should do something. Maybe aggregate the free threaded marshaler or call a RPC with a regex and a little agentic ai. I could do this in a weekend but I’m too busy soloing diablo4

Musk has no technical skills whatsoever, but he wants to appear smart. So he takes bits of information like this, told to him by junior engineers, and regurgitates it to appear smart.

Musk did this with the Twitter stack and Twitter's senior architects called him out publicly, then he fired them.
One of Musk's defining qualities is that he is a conspiracy theorist when it comes to government. He will see some ambiguous information or be presented with an easily debunked tale and he immediately believes the worst.

Donald Trump is threatening Canada with 25% tariffs but only 10% for China.
This isn't about trade. This is a thug trying to shake our nation down.
Canadians will not kiss the ring of the gangster from Mar-a-Lago.

Time to turn off the taps.
Not a single bottle of American wine, beer or bourbon should be sold anywhere in Canada.
From here on in I will only drink "freedom" wines from Canada, France or Spain.
As for the beer? It's shit anyways.

welcome to all new bluesky users. please keep in mind that it is still in beta. there are many features still missing, so please be patient. for example, you may notice that this app loads posts and then shows them to you, instead of not doing that for some reason.

I feel like my generation experienced Peak Internet and we’re now on a downward trend.

Google Search sucks. You can’t trust Amazon ratings. Twitter & Reddit are at war with their users. Every useful news site is paywalled and every garbage one is free.

Turns out 2010s were the good old days.

i thought Reddit CEO Steve Huffman came off bad in his interview with The Verge

this new one with NBC News is disqualifying

Reddit's unpopular changes were inspired by Elon Musk's layoffs & cost-cutting (like not paying bills) at Twitter.

insane.
