Just what I’ve been looking for, it supports offline playing!
Exec laughs in accountability and fires people
Proprietary software makers: our software is more secure than open source because the public can’t go looking for bugs to exploit.

Fantastic read, shared at work and now following on mastodon. Also had this thought in regards to my own work:
… I find it reflects a similar problem we’re having with our code base: “simple is not always easy”. This article points out that Generative AI does what is easy/cheap, when what we really need is simplicity (or simplified complexity)
There’s probably another article to write about this, I would title it: “Generative AI won’t solve your Cynefin domain problem”
And now we accelerate the process with generative AI, resampling data into “new” content for profit. But I can’t shake the feeling this will be an undoing, like it somehow devalues the collated data becauce it becomes so abundant (and synthetic).
For most eras, how hard it was to make a good sandwich. And I’m not just talking about the past.
Guy is probably getting scared of his board members and is wanting to secure himself from being outed. There’s a reason why we are now hearing about his drug problem, and those stories are likely coming from his board members.
Speaking of which… Don’t you just love how changing the volume on your phone causes the audio indicator to overlap the button that let’s you skip ads?
I don’t always click on a YouTube ad, but when I do it’s a UI failure because it’s an accidental click. How much do you want to bet this crackdown is a distraction from the fact their ad system doesn’t perform as well as advertised?
It’s like oil dependency, we could blame the individual but that really doesn’t help the situation. Unless of course we’re talking about individual executives, those bastards are totally culpable.
My pixel phone had a wave of salt water from the ocean get into the USB-C port. The phone detected the moisture and disabled the port until it was clean and dry. The port still works.
Not sure how Solipsism contradicts atheism or anything else for that matter… I see it more as punting the question. If my mind is the only way for me to know what exists, and my experience is such that atheism is true, then that’s the end of the discussion. Not sure why I am arguing with myself on this one. /S
What’s the saying? “You can’t control what you can’t measure.”
Yes the Environmental Protection Agency. The Heritage foundation is taking applications and they vet by looking at whether their social media accounts supports Trump: https://www.project2025.org/
Last time Trump did their best to push responsible people out of government jobs, but that was just a test run. This time around it would be a speed run.
Edit: per Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025
The plan would perform a swift takeover of the entire executive branch under a maximalist version of the unitary executive theory
That’s what tanking the EPA is for. Without any oversight of externalities, dirty energy becomes cheaper.
From my point of view, the world is neither getting worse nor better.
Is the climate changing the human world for the worse, or isn’t it? Maybe you don’t deny that climate change is happening, but this comment seems to deny its impact.
Not if you loosely define “organized human society”. Imagine a bright future where you just live in your pod and be a happy meatbag that powers the Matrix. Hell, even corporations are “organized human society”.
Those ghouls are saying we should dim the sun instead of disinvestment in oil.
