I can’t stand being on X it truly has the most toxic takes.

Spend too much time optimizing, you end up doing nothing.

GenAI is incredible but I do think it’s a bubble. It’s only as useful as the data its fed. Over reliance of GenAI will reduce the quality of inputs received and thus the quality of its output. #MadewithoutGenAI will be a status symbol just like handmade and organic products.

Just keep building. Everything else is a distraction.

Note to self: Each day you have to see your vision clearly and fight for it to make it a reality. The only one who could make it come true is you.

I hate that if you’re in tech you almost have to be on X. The tech community here needs to get larger.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important

Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone

Call it a Day Of Transparency

Founder mode has me losing all semblance of balance and routine 😫 I love and hate it at the same time.

Just keep building.

Another day of holding strong to the belief that we have to overthrow the oligarchs and rebuild communities on our own platforms.

Nvidia stock tanked on news you don’t need powerful computer chips for AI, you can run the software on the imprisoned ghost of a Victorian-era child. OpenAI is drawing a pentagram with a lollipop in the center as bait

The comment section on LinkedIn is so cringe. JUST BE NORMAL, GUYS.

Decentralized social media is the future — once the energy problem significantly improves — it will be revolutionary.

But thei were all of them deceivid for anothir environment-killinge plagiarism machyne was made

Most of our problems could be solved by properly funding public education.

I don’t understand how liberals could complain so much about Zuck but still use IG and Facebook. Like, it’s not water guys - we don’t need it!

No notes

Next up: deactivating all FETA products (IG & FB). Saving my photos first and will download my data. We don’t need to use these services. It’s a huge problem that everything in a capitalist society has options except apparently we feel strong armed to have to use FETA products. It’s a fallacy.

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.?

In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

I think it’s wild that political figures and government agencies are using twitter to update us on the fire when it’s mostly just bots and MAGA/Elon weirdos now.

We gotta reject “Well, RFK jr. is right about some things” and accept “if we don’t confront the real problems with our systems, it becomes much easier for con artists like this guy to manipulate people.”

I deleted threads and now I want to delete my Instagram and Facebook. I can’t believe I’ve just contributed to making Zuck richer and richer 🤮 we need decentralized social media that isn’t tied to the interests of one entity

Drones.

Government drones above my barn:

How long will the radical left liberals cover this up? They keep calling it “the big dipper” but I know it’s just drones.

Over the past week, I've noticed tons of inauthentic bsky accounts (i.e., fake people) whose profiles all include "grandmother," "artist," "no DMs!" and lots of emojis/acronyms that indicate "liberal values" including 🦋 for some reason?

All pleasures are guilty pleasures if you have high enough anxiety

We need to get away from this overwhelming sense of information overload. We need tech that improves our lives. Tech that isn’t constantly distracting. We need tech that enables us to live our lives better instead of becoming a social media cyborg.
