before you drag the "software engineering is over by next year" quote, consider Dario's "90% of Code will be made by AI in 3–6 Months" has rung true (for my own dev). No idea what next year looks like, but full-vibe-full-send could absolutely be the default (for better or worse)

A vacina que eu tinha visto da dengue (que tinha disponível nessas lojinhas de vacinação) era indicada apenas pra quem já tinha tido dengue. Essa aqui fornece proteção tanto para quem já teve a doença quanto também para quem não teve! Isso pra mim foi a maior novidade! Muito massa!!

Ano passado eu trabalhei com uma pessoa cega e fiquei sabendo umas curiosidades sobre cães-guia. Quando o dog tá com a guia vestidinha, ele realmente tá trabalhando, orientando a pessoa, não pode brincar, não deve distrair. Quando tira, realmente sai do personagem. Eles são treinados assim na escola

Ubuntu extended their LTS (paid) support to 15 years, meaning that you could support a Ubuntu version from 2014. Ubuntu 24.04 would have support til 2039.

Meanwhile Microsoft is obsessed to phase away computers from 2017.

Tech friends who work in e-commerce and cloud providers who support us. Have a great week and may the final exam be full of nothing but climbing sales. (Final exam = Black Friday / Cyber Monday weekend.)

O Instagram é o novo Facebook.

Achar que todo mundo usa o Instagram e compartilhar links do Instagram como se fosse o link do G1 é absurdo, pois o Instagram limita a visualização pelo app.

Se você não quer usar o app, você terá a visibilidade limitada.

Gender-affirming care saves lives
1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

GPT would have been such a great technology if LLMs were just used to augment search engines. Their natural language processing ability means they can find relevant content no matter how you phrase your query. No more keyword matching, just ask a question, or describe what you’re looking for. 1/2

Por mais que estude a teoria do bloxplot, sempre fico impressionada quando as pessoas tiram conclusões baseada nos quartís.

Pessoal, por mais que seja completamente justo o bozo ir para uma cadeia comum, ele infelizmente sabe demais.

A menos que ele fique em isolamento na papuda até o fim da pena, esse homem não pode ser acessado por outros.

IA é ruim pra alunos.
É pior ainda para alunos negros.
You think LLM-based chatbots can help students learn? Think again.

Take a few minutes to listen to Dr. @drtanksley.bsky.social clear explanation why this is very bad, harmful idea, especially for Black students.

Opinião impopular: ex-presidente não deve cumprir pena em prisão comum.

Precisa de mais proteção, pois teve acesso a segredos de estado. É arriscado deixá-lo em contato com outros detentos.

Prisão domiciliar não dá.

Um quarto na PF é a melhor solução. Foi como Lula ficou preso (injustamente).

Orgulho de ter participado junto com Marcos Hecksher desse estudo sobre Bets no Brasil, ainda inédito, do Instituto de Estudos para Políticas de Saúde (IEPS). Os números são alarmantes e merecem ser vistos pela sociedade assim que publicados. Saiu hoje na coluna de @laurojardim.bsky.social
