Yeah, that’s pretty much what I am talking about. Ideally it will work as a pretty spectacular self-selection mechanism, when all is said and done. 🤞

Sound like my ex-boss. Who was also big on saying “Own your mistakes.”

(Dude “lost confidence” in working with me when telling me to own my mistakes in a call and I went through all the issues and Slack messages, with a shared screen, to look for his non-existing instructions on what to do.)

I’m kinda crossing my fingers on them blowing their own legs off with it, myself. 🤞

The only really positive thing for me is how it unmask so many people for what they are.

And the icing on the cake is how most of them are “proving” how awesome AI is by making trivial shit that no one would and will never pay them for. Literally hyping themselves out of future work possibilities.

Fail fast, fail often, but at least fail loudly! 💪

It’s a bazooka for people who are insecure about their incompetences.

That's why a lot of the impact is to extensively tarpit people who do the work and know how to do the work. Which is extremely counterproductive and rapidly burns those people out.

e.g. In the past 24 hours have watched how this is evicting the most valuable contributors from open source projects.

Can companies be trusted enough to still deliver quality and due dilligence when pressured to be ever more efficient?

For a general idea, one might ask the FAA if they trust Boeing.

The problem: This means regulatory bodies can be spammed by submissions that they don’t have the capacity to review, and that all _look_ competent. But it would be up to the companies, all under different market/investor pressures, to make sure the generated documentation is truthful.

In practice, this could mean hundreds of requirements, system specifications and even verification/validation test specifications that ”people who know what they’re doing” would review and sign, all generated within hours. Very efficient!

I worked on tools for regulated industries that pivoted hard to AI. Medical Devices were the first vertical.

The pitch _absolutely_ was to “ease the regulatory and documentation burden“, implying AI will generate any “missing configuration items” and offer them for quick review & signing-off.

Former Austrian Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl, you know, the one who invited Putin to her wedding has received some 244 000€ by Russia for "analysing" global politics. She was nominated by the far-right Freedom Party, currently polling at around 36%. Guess we'll see more of that soon.

Ernst Strasser gonna be soooo jealous!

One of the nice side effects of being a Slovenian is that at least the odds of our military doing any damage with our signature balloon squadrons dropping water balloons are quite low.

Not zero, but still, schools and hospitals are probably safe.

(Unless someone angers us, then all bets are off!)

We’re past the tipping point with humanity and idiotism. 😞

Ideating is nothing without synergizing. So: Fake!

When you self-checkmate at 4D conspiracy chess? 😬

Good news: @astrosky.eco is now fully hosted in the EU, by an EU company! 🔭

I wanted to migrate to a more cost-efficient server layout anyway, so I figured why not also move out of the US while we're at it 🎉

European politics: A spectacular crash on the German Autobahn?

🤔

Might work as a metaphor, yeah! 👍

Richtisch guddes Zeuch 👌

Aah, so off to Klagenfurt? 😬

(At least that was the only time recently where I went over 200kph with the train coming from Vienna… and promplty after smelled the brakes when entering Carinthia’s after the fancy new tunnel.)

Ich find einfach cool wenn ich dadurch, dass ich meiner Frau und meinen Arbeitskolleginnen nie Gewalt antu schon so ziemlich cutting edge bin. Muss jetzt nur schaun wo ich meine participation award Medaille abholen kann. Oder zumindest ein Diplom. 🤔

Wait, there’s high-speed trains in Central Europe?? 😱

“Amazing the most stupid idiot on the Planet is the same guy that is going to destroy it.”

To be honest I always expected that to be the case, in the end. I just hoped it wouldn’t be in my lifetime.

Uploading Pirated Books via BitTorrent Qualifies as Fair Use, Meta Argues * TorrentFreak In an ongoing lawsuit, Meta now argues that uploading pirated books to strangers via BitTorrent qualifies as fair use.

In 2013 Aaron Swartz committed suicide for facing 35 years in prison for mass downloading scientific articles.

13 years later, Meta is almost getting away with an infraction orders of magnitude larger.

The law didn't change.

As a public servant, I write weekly notes to let people see what I do.

I attended various kick-offs, including for new guidance, new websites, a support hotline, a blog post, and a white paper.

I participated in another #ServiceStandard intro workshop and attended events on AI and digitalisation.

Probably both. 👍

Why would people do it? Why pay for and give away their business data to a vibe-coded “startup”, when doing it in-house at least means one doesn’t have to deal with the risk of the startup disappearing overnight?

It all sounds pretty fucking idiotic and desperate.
