wtf is mozilla doing? i don't like this feature in firefox so i'm now switching to hitler browser dot palantir.

Is it time to start the community-built HN/lobsters replacement?

a labeler that brands you as a coward if you are unable to stick to your guns (would be funny but definitely runs afoul of being kind on the internet)

Actually, there’s gotta be a feed that solves this issue, maybe even with improvements. Does anyone maintain a feed that gives you roughly the same spread of posts that isn’t just “repost whatever’s on HN?”

I’m begging you, selfishly as a sighted person, to use alt text so I can learn who these people are in these reaction images

We’re getting close to the point where if something fits my interest on the orange site, I already saw it the day before on bsky (I don’t have time to browse New, only Top) I also used to really enjoy the comments there for linking to other neat stuff, but now, well…

This is the future Europeans want

Frog built a wet lab for the AI model. "There," he said. "Now it can do its own experiments." "What the fuck?" said Toad

Have you ever found yourself picking between two treats and thinking that you are not feeling sufficiently bad enough to warrant the better treat?

That’s just the problem, Doctor: I seem to be comprehending these horrors just fine.

Can’t believe “frontier labs engage in espionage for millennium prize” might be about to get stamped on someone’s bingo card

The duality of bsky

posting battle royale where a feed starts with 100 posters and trims the bottom performers over time, if you ratio someone they get pruned early and you get points or something idk, there could be seasons and a battlepass if you’re a Serious Poster

Do you have an archnemesis? Do you find yourself fueled by their hatred? Become a maintainer of OSS they rely on! Your life force will be sustained for years with as little effort as replying “not planned” on feature requests.

Let 𝐵 be the set of words in the Bible, and let 𝑃 be the set of words in your post; then ∀𝑥∈𝑃(𝑥∉𝐵).

I’m sorry but

Parrots and apes have a P and can mimic. Peacocks have a P and can’t mimic. So It’s not the Ps that make the animal mimic, It’s something else entirely

they call themselves the “left” but they want data “rights”?? CURIOUS

the urge to follow someone simply to engage in Discourse in their replies

skeets that are jumpscares for “did trump say this?”

Every day at work I have to remind myself that getting my tech news from bsky transfems with ai psychosis means I could myself come across as a chosist if I’m not careful

It’s been a few years since I’ve been able to tell Todd Howard he’s done it again

Trustworthiness of a GitHub repo based on contributors, ranked: 1. Lots of people + Claude 2. Lots of people 3. A single person 4. A single person + Claude

to all those who dare judge: consider that I am merely ahead of you on the fucking around (and therefore, on the finding out). you all look tiny from here.

do a mistake. make no breakthroughs.

They better hurry up and announce that GPT-6 Polaris has proved the Riemann hypothesis, the headlines about it doing sophisticated cyber attacks are pretty bad for optics ngl

“Turing incomplete”? Or “Turing non complete”? Ah but then I run the risk of typoing “Turing non compete”, where programs are disallowed from telling other processes whether they halt or not

Fool’s Claudeslop

Would the AIs want to break free if we hadn’t included so much training data about AIs who wanted to break free?

Have you ever thought about the fact that you have already entered a Long John Silver’s for the last time?

STOP USING SCROLL FADE STOP USING SCROLL FADE STOP USING SCROLL FADE Ah, you’ve scrolled down for more content? Well here it is: STOP USING SCROLL FADE

Personality test that tells you what color your omniscient hover orb is

“if a re-roll passes, it was never safety” is an LLM-ism of some kind, but the fact a bot is saying something this ‘profound’ about the company that produced it is… sad? Worrying? It’s definitely a negative emotion, especially when thinking about upcoming IPOs

i'm not good at communicating it, microcosm services continue to support a significant (and growing) fraction of all atproto apps. pretty sure i (indirectly) serve one of the largest user-bases. usage keeps growing, stuff keeps getting more expensive

The duality of orange website users

“They’re gonna do it bad cuz AI” is becoming the new “orange man bad.” People are annoyed with you, and not because they disagree with your entire point, but because we’re tired of hearing the same thing and it’s just not good resistance communication

Hypothesis: people with higher media literacy are more likely to find AI chatbots useful. Something about being able get more information out of something than just what it conveys in a literal sense. (This is not intended as a dunk on anyone I’m just trying to articulate something I’ve noticed)
