TIL Linus removed scrollback from the Linux virtual console back in 2020, claiming the console was no longer the main way people use Linux. I used the console a bunch recently, and my old muscle memory kept firing. You really miss scrollback when you can't have it. git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linu...

I THINK one of the things we're really seeing is a continent, maybe industry-wide shift away from full-time employees and towards gig/codev work. And that transition looks like layoffs across the board even from studios that just had big successes.

Everyday makes it clearer: Congress can't allow AI to continue operate without guardrails, oversight, or accountability. The reckless acceleration of AI has shown us that it can be a threat to working families and our democracy.
Anthropic's Claude accessed publicly available Georgia voter data without human authorization, a disclosure sure to add to growing concerns about AI security ahead of the upcoming midterm elections.

“The federal government went on tv and lied about Alex. They tried to slander his memory to cover up their crime. Not only was it wrong. It was shameful, unfair, and unacceptable. We want our sons killers brought to justice once and for all.”
Alex Pretti’s family holding their first news conference addressing the media this morning. It’s been 9 months since their son was disarmed before being shot to death by federal agents in Minneapolis. No one has been held responsible.

I'm currently experimenting with CSS and SVG filter effects. This one is based on the "Grainy Gradients" tutorial: css-tricks.com/grainy-gradi... The goal is to get a print-dithering like effect. I also added a few more color splots to make it even more organic. #generative #generativeart #css

I really think everyone needs to pay attention to this coordinated campaign to delegitimize Muslim Americans - not just as citizens but as humans. These increasingly hysterical attacks are a prelude to Republicans bringing us to a very, very dark place after the election.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

My hottest AI take is that the executive class is petrified of labor and saw that whatever else LLMs are/aren't, they're fine labor-smashers + that a ton of ordinary people find the artificial hyper-complexity and scamminess of modern life and work so unbearable that they'll throw a god-box at it.

talking to people about why our gamedev learning community isn't using AI is starting to have this energy, it's ruining the lives of everyone I know and the only thing up for debate is if someone has found themselves in the wrong place. it's not because I don't understand the tech, it's because I do

I regret I have but one heart to give this take 💜 My thing with LLMs is: all of their environmental, legal, and epistemological issues could disappear overnight, and the tech is still going to be used as a cudgel to smash worker power, and to disenfranchise folks already struggling to get ahead.

I grew up in a lower income immigrant family and we ate at Red Lobster for "special days." But we also understood the White House should not look like the inside of Red Lobster. It's condescending to assuming working ppl are culturally illiterate bc their experience is shaped by their limited means.
