I strongly encourage my palaeoart peers who work in the museum display sector to write explicit "no AI modification" clauses into their contracts.

Even if your employee contacts at a given museum are trustworthy, you can't rely on outsourced 3rd parties to not butcher your work without said clause.

there are zero fucking good build systems for c/++ except the ones i wrote and the venn diagram of those with cross-platform deploy tooling is less than empty it's a negative fucking set [working on it]

"it's not even that hard, just use a compiled language" => has never shipped code in their life
It's not even that hard, you just need to use a fast pre-compiled programming language like C, C++, Rust, Zig, Go, etc. And stop writing webapps. Everyone who uses electron should have their computer forcefully downgraded to a mid-range 2012 laptop.

A very niche and difficult problem: a personal tool on phones to organize your GIF and meme collection that can be used as a keyboard to auto-insert images on use.

So I can make my smol collection of memes from The Morning Show and just type them in when I want. No more GIPHY or Tenor, lol

ask anyone who has had someone open an issue against their repo demanding to relicense the codebase because their employer can't use it. copyleft as a labor relation has never been more relevant and it's long past time for free software to incorporate the solidarity of positive liberties
My sense now is that a conversation we need to be having across various technological regimes is what intentional opting out looks like in a social form where opting in to various tools is compulsory or coerced.

Again, I am urging orgs, and especially activist groups, to move computing services off of these cursed platforms. I'm creating a how-to guide and invite others to contribute ideas and insights. Why leave M365? Voila: monroelab.com/2025/01/22/s...

A friend said, 'focusing on Silicon Valley isn't helping us replace it.' I disagree. Wars require maps and knowledge of your enemy's methods and plans. Focus on SV, treated as the foundation of a battle plan, is essential.

Paging @harrysimmons3578.bsky.social - who has a thought or two on the US lacking a culture besides the forcibly imported ones the settlers tirelessly work to demean (such as African cultural expression).
I once got in an argument with a Norwegian coworker who said that America never created any real culture. I pointed out things like jazz and he was like “but really that’s African and Caribbean,” so finally I landed on ranch dressing, and I am proud to confirm that we got that goin for us

The use of AI should be noted clearly on the cover, cover page, or ToC so readers can choose another book by an author who still writes.
