Fascism is here. We are not โ€œgetting closerโ€ or โ€œin danger of.โ€

This matters because it frames our discussion: We arenโ€™t trying to prevent it, weโ€™re trying to defeat it. Itโ€™s not taking over our institutions, itโ€™s taken them over.

Otherwise, weโ€™re always behind, fighting a past weโ€™ve already lost.

@nyquildotorg@gts.nyquil.org: With everyone freaking out about how Microsoft is now saying the quiet part out loud re: GitHub being a repository that exists mainly so they can train Copilot on its contents, I think it's important to mention that Microsoft also owns NPM.

Repeating louder for people in the back:

Github to Codeberg Bulk Migration Script | Rahul's Blog Rahul's Blog

In light of Microsoft folding #GitHub into their AI development team today, I'd recommend getting your shit out now all at once
www.rahuljuliato.com/posts/github... (also it's easy to get your stock .github actions to run on a cheap vps running a single docker-compose'd container)

The irony is that most GEMS music is terrible due to bad default instrumentation

Close, intelligent, in some cases near lifelong friends are starting to talk casually about the use of ChatGPT in their lives or in some cases are clearly getting paid/perks to promote its use and itโ€™s like watching your social circle slowly, and with a big smile on their face, all join Scientology.

Happy Monday!! When you call your payment processors today maybe ask about why they were messing with the chats for some tournaments you were watching over the weekend?

after going through 24 contest entries i think my main opinion is that some people think that "difficulty" is a good substitute for quality level design. the whole kaizo hack trend sucks ass

Understand where this sentiment is coming from but there's a few aspects I'd like to reframe. First being: it would be a mistake to act as though any one person, policy, or government (including the current admin) is the True End Boss Of Banning Porn. It might not be CS but it's also not Vought ->

Today's reminder to keep the pressure on! They're hoping we'll shut up, get tired or bored, and just walk away.

If we keep trashing their operational metrics, they'll fold first.

dismissively saying "good luck with the fascists!" to a queer person saying democrats have abandoned them is a great demonstration of how democrats are worthless fascism collaborators, thank you for such a succinct and clear example

I actually liked this ad, it appealed to my absurdist humor.

Not enough for me to actually want to play golf, though
