FR#157 – Social Software Distribution Open social protocols are expanding beyond social media into the infrastructure developers use to build, distribute, and discover software. Three recent launches show what that looks like in practice.

Gave up all of the currency and promise of the “idea” of America (however flawed), in exchange for “we kill people. We kill lots of people.”

It suggested I look into algebraic effects and Koka

I was recently asking Claude about this:

This looks amazing! Unfortunately I have a meeting then.
Do you know if this will be recorded?

The Flow Is Gone — jd:/dev/blog I used to hold entire systems in my head. Now I hold seven terminals. The trade was worth it, but something real got lost.

Yeah, just read julien.danjou.info/blog/the-flo... and it definitely resonates

What is the interplay between representations learned from (language) surface forms alone, and those learned from more grounded evidence (e.g.,vision)?

The man who ate until he ate himself How Audience Capture makes influencers become followers of their followers

I think about this sometimes

"Nikokado isn’t the only victim of audience capture. Millions of people have been devoured by the public personas they created or attempted to create"

So excited to dig into this

sorry. Yes, this was horrible

Agree completely. They hide behind a label. They should squirm, and those who have the capacity for shame should feel shame

One hopes things will improve over time...

I do not understand how 44% of Americans can support the war with Iran. WTF is wrong with this country

Americans will believe anything! #cdnpoli

I am pretty concerned about a world where there's only 2-3 companies that can run these models. I have been spending the last few days idly musing about a coop that sets up hardware and runs the open models.
