I don't understand this mastodon API endpoint for fetching multiple statuses (see “view multiple statuses”)

https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/statuses/#index

the example seems to say this should work [https://social.ayco.io/api/v1/statuses?id[]=112486535533351427](https://social.ayco.io/api/v1/statuses?id[]=112486535533351427) but... it doesn't 🤔

🔗 Jack Dorsey, Bluesky, decentralised social networks and the very common crowd
https://davidgerard.co.uk/blockchain/2024/05/10/jack-dorsey-bluesky-decentralised-social-networks-and-the-very-common-crowd/

What a great read.

“… the decentralisation in Bluesky is fake in practice, with the network depending on a huge centrally-controlled relay node. The identity server is also centralised.”

My DAC light indicator changes color when hi-res music is playing, I tried some “hi-res” files I found on the web but I think they just edited the metadata because my DAC doesn’t light up the right color.

Misinformation is deeply embedded in the web, and we can’t reasonably expect AI to be better at spotting this.

It’s time for humans to step up.

@kotaro This is true in a lot of industries, maybe even all.

AI-generated code are marketed to speed up development, and who doesn’t want faster development? Every level in the development chain wants this, and it won.

It was the easiest to sell with some level of confidence because code doesn’t lie.

Tech people are also profiled with highest likelihood to be early adopters.

So tech was the foothold that gave AI a chance. But the big question is, does it really scale outside the coding use-case where facts are muddied and mistakes harder to spot?

To my tech friends, this is where AI criticism is coming from: it may work relatively well for our use-case but the powers are selling it in such a way that might influence

Most Tv series season endings suck by design because they are not real endings, but a setup for the next season; with hopes that executives will renew 😄

Case in point: Prime Videos’ Fallout ending is so… upsetting.
