i constantly think about this post
En un futuro, si logramos eliminar la mentalidad de esclavos y/o “ponerse la camiseta”, nos aterrará recordar que gente en la oficina veía mal que alguien tomara 1 hora durante el trabajo para salir a correr o ir al gym pero veía bien quedarse hasta tarde en la oficina en largas jornadas de trabajo.

One of my ongoing frustrations with software engineering as a professional practice is that LLMs were in no way the thing that caused this (though they do exacerbate it). Every company I’ve seen in my career fetishized producing solution-shaped objects for problems they didn’t (care to) understand.
"writing code to solve a problem" used to have "understanding the problem" as a prerequisite. but vibecoding allows solution-shaped objects to be produced without any of the hard-won understanding. beware of solution-shaped objects.

DOGE did not fail in any way to accomplish its goals.

Its goals were never efficiency or saving money.

Its goals were to destroy as much of government as possible forever, and to steal data for the Space Nazi.

DOGE is fading away like bank robbery gangs fade away after the robberies are done.

Hoy recordé la importancia de respirar y recordar mantener la calma y la mente fría cuándo tenemos la, usualmente desgracia, de estar frente a un bully, especialmente uno obsesionado con destruir. 😌

Cosa nada fácil y que requiere trabajo constante en uno mismo para aprender a estar en paz. 💚🌱

Mientras no tengamos robots autónomos que vengan a limpiar mi casa o a lavar y acomodar mi ropa, yo creo que trabajar en redes, dispositivos e infraestructura suena seguro.
Podrán "crear" apps con un prompt, pero si un cable se desconecta o una máquina se sobrecalienta, el prompt no va a ayudar... 🌼

Me learning about diVine, “and other stuff”, Nostr

jack dorsey but it’s not profit.

The head of engineering at truth social is part of the nonprofit but projects are about open source.

They promote AI to create software with a single prompt but also promote decentralization and collaboration 😮‍💨

Jack Dorsey is real close to Musk.

DiVine is made by RabbleLabs, on their site you will find a widget called "And Other Things" that takes you to another domain and explains a lot of stuff about their/Nostr's Ai.

Most likely they just want a free dataset of tons of actual videos to train on.
Oh yeah btw the reason why Vine is being relaunched with great fanfare and no Al is because it's jointly operated with an Al company and they probably don;t want to pollute their scrap pile with stuff they've already shat out.

El único programa drag que veo acaba de eliminar a quien opino era la participante más fuerte con increíble talento artístico, creatividad y carisma, su nombre Nayla Downs 💚 lo anterior además a través de odio y envidia.

Una pena. Ojalá ya se deje de dar foco a todo lo que promueva odio y bullying.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Charlatanes, en mi pueblo así les decimos

Usarán IA para "generar photo-realistic images"

Todos sabemos que la industria de la belleza se vale de engaños para vender, pero por que contratar modelos e influencers que ni usan sus productos cuando pueden dejar a pueblos enteros sin agua usando la IA?
I don’t want to seem out of touch but I don’t actually understand the economy anymore.

"Topics often discussed by insufferable people" hahaha... I loved that and I 100% agree
My favorite was this one.

All I ever thought when I saw it was: "Topics often discussed by insufferable people"

"Alexa," He says into the void where once his friendships were. "Remind me... remind me that I'm a winner?"
The pause is brief but brutal, a gasp of silence as his whole self-worth teeters.
"You are so goated." She replies.
"I am. I am goated, ain't I?"
This time there is no answer. There never is.
