I break things to see how they (don't?) work | I pass the butter | I sometimes push too much on the boundaries of Poe's law, it's wholly intentional | I touch computers for money, mostly with utter disgust | feed contains #Bulgarian, да го еба | (де)бел #хакер | !! и ≠ й ≠ ѝ !!

A chance exists I might understand what I'm talking about if it's related to #computers. I'm most likely thoroughly #incompetent and just love expressing my #dumb #opinions on any other subject you see me touch.

...they despise your kind because you understand the machine, while they have to turn jungles into fuel and enslave thousands of computers just to pretend that the machine speaks to them too.

Replying to @afeinman@wandering.shop
@afeinman@wandering.shop @david_chisnall@infosec.exchange that seems to be the analogy everyone is going for, but I think it's very wrong. There are oppinions to be had about about a governmental policy that amounts to "we will not intervene into your dedication to getting cancer". But that's not that. "Social" media, if we must push the tobacco analogy, is second hand smoking, but even worse. All the smokers are inentionally exhaling in your face and being offended if you don't inhale deeply. Algorithm based, advertisement funded "social" media propagates societal decay far outside its own walls. It ends up financing the worst possible political, business and ideological circles of society. And because it's an inherently amoral enterprise it always incentivises and outright rewards the most amoral actors.

"Hey, I'm Matthew. I used to be a human with a soul. I was even capable of reason. But working for Google has degraded me into a human shaped corporate propaganda megaphone. I know what I'm doing is wrong and terrible. However the world we live in has left me no choice but to support all the terrible anti-customer decisions that my employer forces on me, as I need a job to survive...

Ugh... I mean... Sideloading bad! Scammers make you sideload v1ru53z that the all benevolent Google has not blessed!
The only reasonable solution is for you to do a headstand for 24 hours non-stop to prove you're not being coerced by scammers!"

A popular Bulgarian restaurant chain apparently deployed facial recognition and "smile ranking" for its waiters.
There's no note of this in the chain's site and nothing in the locations mentions that this is happening (that violates several EU laws).

The only reason this came out is because the company that provides the services fucked up and bragged about it on their page (internet archive link in the consumerrights.wiki post below).

Obviously saying this is just for the waiters is utter BS, first because that's not how any of this tech can work, but even more so considering there's a screenshot on their announcement page for it that shows the system keeping information for customers as well.

The norms that open source communities built over decades did not wait for court approval. People chose the GPL when the law offered them no guarantee of its enforcement, because it expressed the values of the communities they wanted to belong to. Those values do not expire when the law changes.

@iris_meredith@mastodon.social maybe (and I apologize for now just going into a reply guy kind of train of thought mode here) that's the crux of it. Tech (capital T) isn't about the tech anymore. It got massively funded, it prooved it's a great tool to exert power and maintain control. That dragged in a bunch of people that only care about the power and control, certainly a lot of ego-driven people. The people who (at least used to) care about the tech (not Tech) are still mostly around. But they (we?) always desperately wanted to be accepted because they (we?) were weird geeks with little to no social circle. So what you described takes place, regardless of ypur motivation you "shut up and code" (sometimes you don't even code as much, depending on where within the wormforce ypu might have ended up), because ypu might have gone in it for the tech, but now that you're part of Tech, everyone says that's a bog deal. You're in a great position for yourself and you need to push through and keep it, regardless of what your motivation might have been initially.

@iris_meredith@mastodon.social to be honest, I'm alao not sure how good we techies generally are, to the extent that "techies" can even mean anything beyond "knows how to make compiter go beep-boop". People in the replies already mentioned this sort of " reactive masculinity" that came from the nerds and geeks ending up on top after it turned out computers can make you money and you can use them.to control people. When you're ostracized for something you are you could take that trait and turn it into a badge of honor. In theory that's maybe even a healthy way to respond to bullies. But also, if you end up becoming powerful (even mildly, by virtue of something stupid like being part of a made up mew "techie cast") and keep latching on to that trait as ypur singular badge of honor, you become what you described. The "person that's in tech". Not even a " person who codes", or "person who makes hardware", " person who likes math" or whatever. Just a "person in tech".

@iris_meredith@mastodon.social I don't know that I exactly enjoyed reading this. I most certainly felt it though. I'm lucky enough to feel generally ok in my body, but working in tech certainly creates a feeling that's reminiscent of what you describe. I spent a good chubk of my adult life in the "disregard for the body" camp, though I did at least bathe regularly. But the concept of purely identifying yourself with your work is frighteningly familliar to me. 10-12 hour workdays where you do what you do without thinking too much about the consequences of it for society or yourself hits a little bittoo hard. Breaking away from that is difficult. Most tech (especially the one that allows you to earn a living) exists within a hypercapitalistic environment. It felt hypercapitalistic 10 years ago, but damn qe've gone so much further since then. To top that off you have multiple literal fascist takeovers around the world, which you need to basically ignore. That is for those of us lucky enough to not need to actively colavorate with and aid said takeovers as part of our job. I can't imagine (and hope I never have to) what it's like to have to choose between being employed and not working for neonazi cooks.

@dreamer@mastodon.world @denschub@mastodon.schub.social I was thinking this as I read "as someonen who can debug and fix things"... People who are good at this are good at it because expoaure to other people's code and mistakes over time teaches you to recognize tlsaid mistake and to be able to follow someone else's thought pattern to recognize imperfections in it (including stylistic ones). This is a whole different beast altogether. This is not a person's humanly imperfect reasoning or modeling. GenAI produces slop on a level and at a volume that goes beyond what 10 person tes could do. Once the industry sobers up the only solution will be to start from scratch. And I think that's also a fair price to pay for all this stupidity right now.

Fuck #google and fuck #revolut!

Thankfully I don't use it for my main capitalism system. Though I'm sure it's just a matter of time until wise go down that route as well.

@pludikovsky@chaos.social @xahteiwi@mastodon.social so I guess if anything not negative has come form the whole AI debacle it's that more people now know about em dashes.

@pludikovsky@chaos.social @xahteiwi@mastodon.social weird as it is, they are in fact the correct dash to use in these situations. People just use a minus sign because it's easier to type, even when they know better (myself included of course).
