  • I think some people enjoy being contrarian (especially on social media!) - I can't say I do but I don't mind having an alternative opinion :) I wrote this recently - how AI movements hijack outrage and funnel it in the wrong direction, often for political motives... I may update this piece later but for now I wanted to get some thoughts down on paper (or screen?) https://www.notobigtech.org/en/posts/2026-07-24-how-ai-movements-like-quitgpt-hijack-public-outrage-around-ai-and-...

  • A slightly "unhinged" looking comment I might have left, when responding to someone who is (fairly, IMO) calling me out on my blog. I openly admit to hypocritical, paradoxical behaviours. I am a search marketer (!) and I am very openly anti-capitalist (!!). What bigger opposite could you have?? I don't hide away from any of this. I do this work because it pays the bills and I have figured a way to work with clients that are (more) aligned with my values, as best as p...

  • People are probably tired of me saying this - but capitalism is to blame for the current wildfires, on multiple levels: - Native woodlands are cut down, flammable non-natives like Eucalyptus are planted - high in oil and a quick cash crop for land owners 🤑 - Climate change strongly tied to capitalist (human) activities ✈️ - People leave the countryside and migrate to cities to find work - leaving vast wild land vulnerable (no-one to raise the alarm, no human fire-prevention in place) 👷

  • RE: https://mastodon.social/@floridamarx/116997006065223850 These are the people I want to find and support - because they speak to the truth - regardless of how uncomfortable it is to hear. How many times will we see the C word in the context of these wildfires as reported by news outlets around the world? 🤔🤔🤔

  • Wanted to make a joke about jaguar Land Rover with the third pic—but I believe thatʼs a leopard. https://www.instagram.com/p/DbYYwJVjPZS/?img_index=2

  • I don't think a California Governor can really run for president until they finish the fucking bullet train.

  • Roosevelt: speak softly and carry a big stick Trump: yammer endlessly and run out of munitions

  • When I swipe "Unitary Executive" into my Android phone it renders "Unitarian Executive" and I think that is a form of government that is really worth a try.

  • German car designers understand that Americans are currently drawn to and ready to pay for the "angry with a funny mustache" aesthetic.

  • RE: https://sfba.social/@dannyman/117056224812397998 To be clear: I have no beef with BMW here. Or with anybody who buys an electric car that resembles Adolf Hitler. I just think it's funny to be selling or buying a car that looks like this in Donald Trump's America. And of course you can totally buy an electric car from a guy who wants to be a Nazi. I wouldn't do that. That's a bad idea. Please don't give Elon Musk any more money. He is a terrible human...

  • "infrastructure is code" 🤔 I mean infrastructure is computers. Computers are partly code. Computers are also more than code. 🤔 "Code is infrastructure" 👍 In my opinion, successful operations is managing your infrastructure effectively. That means using code to orchestrate the computers, for example. It also means being thoughtful on how you architect the systems and the code. There are cloud people who wish to wash their hands completely of the physi...

  • As a rising power, China is following a historical precedent: mastering emerging technologies. As a declining power, the United States is following historical precedent: embracing military dominance and fossil fuels. "Superpower suicide and its most basic form."

  • Which thermal camera would you recommend for PCB repair/analysis? Preference for "not too expensive" ones :) Also, usable without smartphone if possible.

  • Is it me or Linux Foundation events are prohibitively expensive? Not everyone earns $400k/year https://events.linuxfoundation.org/open-source-summit-europe/register/#registration-rates 230€ for hobbyists or academics ?! It's the price of a smartphone that you buy, say, for 5 years. Who will pay that to attend a conference? If you're not already earning tons of money?

  • RE: https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/116970861761841251 What happens when AI finds 42 0days in the "kill switch" software in a few hours?

  • Hello fediverse, question for you :) Which thermal camera would you recommend for laptop/console PCB repair? Mostly for detecting shorted components. I've tried one from a friend but found it very hard to use, it was not showing much and it was hard to keep the components on focus. It was a guide E2+, and yes I tried with the macro lens as well ^^
