@briankrebs@infosec.exchange Dalio has a horrible track record. He may be right here, but he’s a BS artist.

@Nonilex@masto.ai I don't like saying this, but I don't think the Trump cryptocurrency is a security and the SEC's Atkins will simply say that.

94F and a feels like temperature of 107F here in NW Washington DC, but Izzy still wanted to go out in the front yard and lie in the grass, in full sun. Don't worry -- after about 10 minutes, she told me she was ready to go back inside our house. (In normal weather, she might have wanted to be out there for an hour.) #DogsofMastodon #WashingtonDC #ClimateCrisis

@lrt_writes@mstdn.party @mastodonmigration@mastodon.online @AkaSci@fosstodon.org Hydrogen peroxide is quite safe for fish at 1 ml per gallon, so I doubt this is unsafe for anything other than the algae. (I have a pond in DC, so have extensive algae experience.) But the administration is incompetent in all things.

Good article by Joyce Vance on Anthropic suing the administration. I'm no fan of AI, but as a WilmerHale alum I'm happy to see this lawsuit.

@cstross@wandering.shop I completely understand (and largely agree). And in my experience there is nothing remotely close to Dragon on Linux or MacOS.

Replying to @cstross__dup_483@wandering.shop
@cstross@wandering.shop I wasn't trying to argue with you. I agree with your fundamental point, but I wanted to point out that there is at least one very accomplished author who uses speech recognition software. I used Dragon every day for years as a lawyer. Because I was a very specialized lawyer working primarily in federal securities laws (mostly mutual funds and investment advisers), I didn't use the legal version of the software, but instead used the general purpose version. These days, I rarely use Dragon because I am mostly using Linux and the only way to use Dragon on my PC is to run it on Windows in a virtual machine. I don't have your talents to write fiction, and I think that my years as a lawyer have largely made me incapable of writing anything resembling fiction. Having said that, if I were trying to feed myself by writing fiction, I would start with Dragon, and use its customization tools.

@mattblaze@federate.social @sundogplanets@mastodon.social So true. I was having lunch with a friend who is retiring from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission this month. She was telling me about going through her files and seeing all the things (1) she fixed, but has to keep fixing and (2) that she's tried to fix, but can't get her solution implemented.
