oh no what will people think of me if they find out i know css very well AND i also like tailwind :melanie_shocked:

zicklepop,
@zicklepop@nyan.lol avatar

anyone who hates on tailwind needs to understand that you can't use it without also knowing css. it's also a useful tool for teams where not everyone knows css as well as you do. if you don't wanna use it, don't! but you're not gonna shame me for it that's silly.

I just really hope Apple is preparing a metric hectare of reassurances if (big if!) they’re about to announce a deep partnership with OpenAI.

Like, reassurances about the environmental impact (all that work down the drain?), about the training data sources, about general ethics, about the cringy move-fast-and-break-things startup-bro vibes that they will then inherit onto their brand, etc…

@kwramm @cabel every time i install an os update from Apple it asks me again to enable Hey Siri even though i’ve made my position on that setting very clear to them that no means no

you only get one time around, so make sure you spend as much time as possible writing rhetorical little dunks in the comments of screenshots of completely obvious outrage bait twitter posts

i can't wait to do a job interview at a company that is all in on the AI-con and when they ask me a question about big O notation I'm just going to say "if you cared about efficiency you wouldn't be using AI"

it takes "courage" to not use words like "trans" and "nonbinary" in your os's pride wallpapers that are hidden near the bottom of a list where you clearly have trans and nonbinary-themed wallpapers.

i don't know who needs to hear this but san francisco is not and has never been a warzone of crime or covered in human poop and needles.

zicklepop,
@zicklepop@nyan.lol avatar

re crime: would you believe that cops would lie to increase their budget? what about corporations lobbying for harsher laws against very minor crimes?

re poop: finding a place to use the bathroom in a city is nearly impossible. i got shit on by a bird once and had to beg a coffee shop to let me clean it off and wash my hands with the promise of buying coffee. shout out to the divisadero, stay classy.

I miss the days when I could change my wallpaper

Trying to click on ‘Wallpaper’ in System Settings on macOS results in an error (“Extension process Wallpaper (56773) exited.”)

since anyone can embed trackers in to cohost posts, we can easily see that some of their numbers are what we in the business call "lies"

@zicklepop@nyan.lol avatar

this reminds me of when the CFO of Twitter said essentially that "1 page request = 1 monthly active user" and everyone was like "oh that's how you have 300 million monthly active users: you don't"

zicklepop,
@zicklepop@nyan.lol avatar

also someone tell cohost that just because a very low percentage of your users pay you some sort of money at all, that isn't "radically better" than "the industry." they are profitable, you are not. but tell me more about your investor's mental health issues, i guess.

zicklepop,
@zicklepop@nyan.lol avatar

cohost is so small and so impotent i don't want to write about it anymore. it's not worth the attention. i should start watching actual train crash footage instead of hate-watching a few techies eat it, but it's sooo cathartic.

when they say "don't talk about this," do they mean i shouldn't talk about not talking about it? oops

it's foolish to announce a new nintendo or playstation when companies don't have anyone around to make games for them
