I have an offer to make: do you want to run an instance on the fediverse for a group that's underrepresented here?

I'll pay the bills. Period.

I'll do admin if needed (software updates and the like). But you decide what kind of community you want it to be, so you put together the mod team.

DM me.

the "vibe engineering" version of this — even in the fantasyland scenario where the tools work and produce correct results, somehow, even in the face of all the evidence that they don't — is that you establish a permanent unfixable dependency on *OpenAI's subscription services*, which are being […]

this is why there is no such thing as "vibe engineering" and it is farcical to imagine a world where it even could exist. even with all the responsible code review and QA and cross-checking (which is like, literally impossible, given the amount of vigilance fatigue that AI systems provoke, and […]

corporations have been reluctant to "give back" because while it can produce good press, if you start "giving back" to the "community" too much, then the cost savings you got from externalizing your complement starts to erode; if you're going to give money to some tech, might as well own it

bluntly, POSIWID: "open source" is a social system for corporations to externalize infrastructure costs, and, materially, not much else. there are of course principles involved and possible future benefits, but *today*, that's mostly what is going on in the "community"

Let's see what we learn from this case of "Big corporation buys up important open source infrastructure because it's organized as a company". #arduino

I read a lot of stuff (mostly on LinkedIn) about people getting 10x more productive through AI assistants (mostly for Code but also other work products). And I wonder how that works given that you need to doublecheck every generated line, phrase or paragraph for correctness.

Like _how_ […]

And if it's an event or there is an organization you can contact, do so: Tell organizers and companies of your refusal.

Yes. Whenever people present you with Slop Content (outside of active criticism of course) refuse. Refuse to engage and accept.

Is it okay to walk out of conference talks with AI images based on the idea that if they can't be bothered to make their own slides why should I be bothered to look at them?

Here's the CEO of Vercel chatting with Netanjahu about AI _today_.

Great that Mr Rauch is now "Optimistic for Peace, safety and greatness for Israel and its neighbors". People in Gaza will be very happy.

You still deploying all your shit to Vercel and using their software stack?
Sceenshot of a Tweet from Guillermo Rauch (Vercel CEO) about the conversation he had today with motherfucking Benjamin Natanyahu about "AI empowering everyone to build software". He ends it with "Optimistic for Peace, safety and greatness for Israel and its neighbors".
