Dr. Amy, Psy.D.

The best part of having a doctorate is any time someone asks me to do something I don’t want to do, I write “absolutely not” on a post it and say sorry can’t I have a doctor’s note

RE: infosec.exchange/@catsalad/116

normalize making custom licenses, they make corporate lawyers nervous

there's seemingly a funny side effect for this one btw:

> 2. No part of a work under this license may be used or reproduced in any manner by organizations or businesses with more than fifty (50) employees.
> The Filthy Human Hands License is licensed under the Filthy Human Hands License.

so any org with >50 employees can't even copy the license without immediately needing fair use exceptions or equivalent

@catsalad I know these were super serious UNIX business magazines back in 1985, but today they would literally be the cover of some punk zine.

Nobody on LinkedIn has ever had a bad day. Every setback is a "growth opportunity." Every firing is a "new chapter." Every complete professional disaster is framed as "excited to announce." These people would describe the Titanic as "a bold pivot to submarine operations."

The best advice I have for new nerds: Refuse to pay rent.

Don't subscribe. Don't lease. Don't use their cloud. Don't slip down the freemium slope. Don't create accounts on their services.

Buy it once. Run it local. Avoid commercial software.

It'll be a huge pain and you'll be an outsider but it'll be endless, interesting, and hard fun that'll pay you back with a curious mind and an understanding of the fabric of our intellectual infrastructure that will make you light-years more capable, useful, and healthy than the "AI" zombies.

Covid and AI 

I recognize your right to get infected and suffer. Knock yourself out. Permanently, if you feel like doing us that favor.

But you have no right to infect others. Yet here you are, trying to poison us as you've poisoned yourselves, and you dare to wonder why we're so desperately resisting you, fighting you, and cutting you out of our lives one way or another.

Operating systems, Web browsers, and websites are giving some of my customers weather forecasts for cities or states in which they don't live by default, implying that they somehow aren't where they really are.

I had to `rm /var/db/pkg/*` and re-bootstrap pkg to stop my installed ports from being randomly uninstalled. I did that a few days ago, and it worked.

Now I have my most needed ports reinstalled (installed anew, according to ), and my system is back to mostly normal again.

But because I wiped out my pkg database, I have a few thousand now-untracked binaries that I need to sort through, finding out the hard way which ports installed them.

AI dystopia 

The real AI revolution will come when sloppy programming makes it dirt cheap and idiot easy for random activists to hack war drones mid-flight and redirect them to LLM datacenters.
