(this was going to be a video, but it got pretty long, plus I think there's a small chance this could appear high in organic search if shared enough)

many of America's largest companies now require job applicants to do a personality test where you pretend you are a CG humanoid blue alien and answer "me" or "not me" to statements like "things happen to me" and "personal best"

We are obsessed with "Wikiflix," a streaming site full of freely-licensed films from Wikimedia Commons! It was created by legendary Wikimedian @magnusmanske

Pet theory: the paywalling of valid, useful information while misinformation is freely available everywhere is a leading contributor to our societal problems.

My million dollar idea I want someone to steal and do, so I can be a customer.

"Dumb Stuff" we sell electronic appliances that aren't Internet connected. That's all.

That's it. That's the pitch. I would buy the <bleep> out of this company if their electronic gadgets were even half way decent, and repairable.

Electronic, no wifi, regular screws to open it up. That's it. Do those three things, and you can be sold by this store.

I will pay this business to curate and find these devices for me.

🤡 Disruptive ‘everything’ JavaScript package created ‘for the meme’

「 On Dec. 29, a package titled “everything” was published to the registry, which is designed to install all other public packages in the registry. This created a registry-wide web of dependencies that effectively disabled the ability to unpublish packages on the site, as packages that other packages are dependent on cannot be unpublished 」

The network effect for #ActivityPub is gaining some serious momentum right now. As more services adopt the protocol, more people, more communities and more content are added to the network making it increasingly more valuable for everyone. This will only accelerate in the coming months as Threads, Wordpress, Tumblr, Flipboard and others federate.

We're still in early innings but there's no way to put this genie back in the bottle. The open social Web / the #Fediverse is going to be huge.

The use the term "artificial intelligence" for stuff like chatGPT and LLMs is like how people use the name "hoverboards" for things that ride on the ground and do not in fact hover.

I am trying & trying to articulate what a bad take it is for a writer to say "I can't pay an artist" but it leaves me seething on such a fundamental level that I just. can't. do it.

When we warn the real threat of AI is how it’s used against people in the present, not the fantasies that some day computers might think for themselves, this is exactly the kind of thing we’re talking about: health insurers using AI to deny care.

Nobody, and i mean nobody, needs to start a new project in the '20s using React. It's legacy tech, built for IE 6/7/8, and its entire ecosystem starts from the premise that we must (in theory) remain compatible with those browsers -- largely though slow and expensive transpilers.

You know who doesn't target any version of IE in new projects in 2023? MICROSOFT. Unsupported, full stop.

Starting from those legacy assumptions is like designing computers with only newtonian physics.

🤔 HTML-First? https://html-first.com/

😍 Yes, you have my attention.

🔥 I'm happy to see a catchy name for the thing I have been advocating for aka the Contact Us form written in React debacle.
