Remember to pop your filter bubble every so often. If you think you're not in one, you're trapped in one and in for a rude awakening.

You wrote a novel using AI? Cool. It's like that time I ran a marathon using a Ford Focus.

🐭AI is known to generate close replicas. stuff that looks like the truth, but isn't. people use AI to make up for skills they dont have, and in doing so, the AI generates someone who looks like a talented person, but isn't. the AI generates you, the ultimate fake. you become created by AI

My friend
who studies viruses
says we are in
an epidemiological crisis.

My friend
who studies computers
says we are in
an epistemological crisis.

So I asked
my friend
who studies history
which it is
and after a moment
she said: yes.

Don't go looking for this guy - for your own sake. He's probably not real and he wants to convert you to fascism. It's a waste of time and energy. I share his toots so you can see how this works.

Had a reply guy (possible bot) on here try to get me with a fascist talking point that really makes my blood boil.

PSA: if someone is trying to convince you that democracies are bad and what you really want is a 'republic', that's a fascist.

Republics and democracies are not mutually exclusive.

Made a post on Tumblr about this, 'cause I see this shit way too much these days: tumblr.com/rhube/8128056921876

IT'S HAPPENING

GITHUB, THE FIRST ENTERPRISE CLOUD SOLUTION TO REACH ZERO NINES RELIABILITY

@Netraven

- major web service providers generally sign agreements with their largest customers to provide "five nines" of uptime: 99.999%.

- Github, one of the most important pieces of infrastructure for computer programming in general, has been getting increasingly unstable over the last several months.

- Github's own official downtime tracker is extremely, uh, conservative, because the more they officially acknowledge as downtime, the more trouble they're in with major customers. But even by their rosiest estimates, they've lost several nines

- This third party tracker concludes that Github has dropped below 90%, that is to say, to zero nines, for the last 90 days. Note that this is counting any big observable problem as downtime, even if the entire site isn't completely dead.
