Now there's an LLM/AI bubble icon if I ever saw one! A trash can, a document behind it, and an arrow leading from the trash can to the document body.

"I’m sorry this industry took a heel turn. The shittiest of heel turns. It absolutely sucks. But you should take solace in the fact that whatever it might have done to you, it didn’t take away your desire to be useful. It didn’t kill your desire to help others.

You get to keep doing the thing you love.

Now do it for people who will love you back. This is the work."

"The same industry that once called you family is now using the fruits of your labor to commit war crimes. The same industry whose leaders once posted front-page missives to their sites about doing a better job in terms of diversity and inclusion are now selling their technology to fascists who use it to bomb schools.

The industry has decided what it wants to be."

In 1967, IBM commissioned Jim Henson to make a 5-minute commercial for the IBM MT/ST, a Selectric typewriter-based word processor system integrated into its own desk. What he delivered instead was an experimental '60s techno-dystopian work of art.

One of my neighbors threw out a Radio Shack Service Manual for the TRS-80 Model III Microcomputer.

I have a Model III in need of serious cleaning and repair, inside and out, thanks to the seller shipping it with so little protection that what few packing peanuts it had invaded the cavities of both disk drives.

Dumpster dive finds like this are great and all, but being reminded of just how much treasure that's trash to other people makes it to the landfill saddens me.

I think it is really important to analyze the implication of the new IETF Draft Meow MRRP in the wild. I strongly assume it will lead to widespread loss of carriers when applied in areas where IP over Avian Carrier is in use. More research is needed. And funding!

Yeah, I'm gloating over Bluesky being down. I know it's a bad look. I'm just happy that a company that adopted AI to piss off trans people they didn't like, that platformed Jesse Singal over and over again, and whose CEO tried to invent a new transphobic slur is eating shit today.

Bluesky is a transphobic company, I do not like them at all, and I am not sorry to be happy about their loss. I am sorry for the collateral damage that has on everyone who depends on Bluesky for a living.
