Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

Every office has an executive tier whose emails are like:

saw on news , , can we replce complianc dept with web 3

and a worker tier whose emails are like:

Dear Jim,
First of all, I *love* this idea! Unfortunately, I spoke with Legal and identified a few issues with this approach. For starters…
Well, it's a little clearer now why billionaires are so invested in technology that produces better written emails.

The @firefoxdevtools.bsky.social JSON viewer got better in @firefoxnightly.bsky.social : the console offers access to the original json data via `$json`.
This allows to easily manipulate the underlying data to get what you want

libraries are closer to what the early internet was all about than what it is today. unsurprising, given the web's academic origins.

they are data centers built for and around people instead of severs. a physical network offering so much more than books.
What if we could work with our public libraries to create + sustain convivial infrastructures for local news, local 🎶, digital equity, and more? I wrote abt lots of communities that are doing this work, bldg networks of solidarity + resistance, modeling alternatives to extractive commercial systems.
I wrote about public libraries as spaces of civic solidarity, common knowledge, and public infrastructure — all endangered by commercial and federal saboteurs

"Cheney did all of this because his deepest conviction was that the presidency was an elected monarchy."

napkin math says 58% of the US was younger than voting age in 2000. I'm curious how far back they perceive the roots of what's happening today.

if you don't believe artists actually do anything, if you can't tell the difference between something a robot generated and something a human created, then you'll think it's pretty exciting that you paid less for the same result. innovation!
When editing I think a lot about where the viewers eye was before a shot and where it should be after. You can tell no one made those choices for this because no matter what's happening on screen it's boring and feels cluttered because you don't know where to look cause Ai can't look with human eyes
Coca-Cola's annual Christmas commercial is AI-generated again

The company used even fewer people to make it this year
