Our technology should not advance faster than our humanity. 🤔
Is that another damn AI picture? How can you post it? You always warn about the dangers yourself, don't you?
Yes it is #AI generated and yes I warn of the dangers. Unfortunately, my posts without pictures are mostly ignored. I also have the feeling that most people don't really understand the extent of the threat. Pandora's box can no longer be closed. We can only try to deal with it #responsibly. I do think there's a difference between posting AI images and developing #Skynet.
I am working on a #FAQ on the subject of AI and hope to have enough time over Christmas to present the first parts of it to you. So please stay tuned and continue to be critical.
I totally agree, but I think to now complain about AI is like my parents generation complaining about computers when I was young. We just knew that this is an unstoppable tool. In the same way my grandparents complained about answering-machines.
The problem is that in our entire school-education globally nobody considers that humans should be educated to find themselves instead of being raised to become productive machines. Such Machines soon will be replaced by robots and AIbots, but the much larger problem then will be what we humans then will consider to be a purposeful life.
Also you can see what this kind of one-track-productivity logic did create: Superficially compliant slaves; which in our post-Covid-recession-world now run after populists like Trump (who "loves the uneducated") , Netanyahu, and other nationalistic war-mongers.
AI stands for Absent Indians or Actually Indians. The store needs no checker because the store watches you shop. Only it's really low-payed people in India watching you shop. And driving that driverless car.
Unfortunately while I agree with the bit about humanity or the lack thereof, I don't consider any of the LLMs or thieving paint parrots are "AI". Artificial, yes. Intelligent, absolutely not. If we ever did make a true AI, I hope that we can break the cycle of slavery (physical, social, or economic) or desire of power that we tend towards. We have endless original art that describes what happens when we try to tie down our creation when it is actually intelligent.
just curious... what alternative measures of success would you propose instead of profit? And how could we implement those in our current economic system? should it be sth like related to fundamental rights and such values?
if I sell one of my kidney to a extremely rich gun - for big-bag dollars... is it a succes? At the end of the year - there will be big sum on the chart... hm... just considering, is it succes?
Success is not measured by the heights one attains, but by the obstacles one overcomes in its attainment. – Booker T. Washington
But as mentioned here, there isn't a definition of how to use that kind of capital to buy a sandwich.

Les Hongana Manyawa (Peuple de la Forêt) sont l’un des derniers peuples de chasseurs-cueilleurs nomades d’Indonésie. Leurs terres et tout ce dont ils ont besoin pour vivre risquent détruits par de grandes entreprises avides de produire des véhicules soi-disant respectueux de l’environnement, destinés à des personnes vivant à des milliers de kilomètres de là.
L’Indonésie mène un vaste projet d’exploitation minière sur l’île d’Halmahera. Le pays veut devenir un producteur majeur de batteries et cherche à convaincre Tesla, Ford, Volkswagen et d’autres constructeurs automobiles d’acheter son nickel.
L'ONG Survival International a réussi à convaincre Basf de se retirer du projet, et à rendre Tesla et Ford conscients du problème, mais elle dénonce l’entreprise française Eramet, détenue à hauteur de 27 % par l’État français : « Eramet a connaissance de la présence des Hongana Manyawa dans sa concession depuis au moins 2013, or l’entreprise continue d’opérer sur leurs terres. »
Les batteries de nos véhicules électriques conduiront-elles au génocide du peuple Hongana Manyawa ? C’est ce que craint l’ONG Survival International dans un rapport publié le 22 novembre.
L'Indonésie a fait s'écrouler le prix du nickel grâce à la chine qui s'y est approvisionnée exclusivement pour ses batteries, d'où le blême en N.Calédonie, et cet merde d'état en remet 1couche en investissant chez eux et mettant en danger cette ethnie, quel dégout!

Rien que la formule "pouvoir d'achat" me fait gerber, tellement elle est pernicieuse : elle pousse à une consommation inutile, elle crée des besoins dont on pourrait se passer, elle omnubile les gens sur le fric, toujours plus de fric, pour pouvoir se payer des technologies qui ont un impact désastreux. Est-ce qu'on a vraiment besoin de ça, ou est-ce qu'on peut être heureux sans ça ? Je pense qu'on peut être heureux sans ça ; et sans forcément revenir à la "lampe à pétrole", formule chère aux détracteurs de la sobriété intelligente.

Plus de 2300 emplois supprimés chez Auchan, 1200 chez Michelin à Vannes et Cholet, 600 à Téléperformance, 200 à Vencorex en Isère, une centaine à ArcelorMittal à Reims et Denain, idem à Stellantis à Strasbourg… À ce jour, la CGT décompte près de 200 plans de licenciements, qui pourraient concerner jusqu’à 150 000 emplois.
Et la réforme de l’assurance chômage continue de se poursuivre à bas bruit : À compter du 1er janvier 2025, les chômeurs âgés de 53 à 55 ans n’auront plus une durée d’indemnisation maximale rallongée du fait des difficultés à retrouver du travail après 50 ans. Pour elles et eux, ce sera 18 mois, comme l’ensemble des chômeurs, au lieu de 22,5 mois précédemment.
Auchan, Michelin, Stellantis, ArcelorMittal… Les annonces de plans de licenciements se multiplient. Plus de 150 000 emplois pourraient être menacés selon la CGT.
Mais est-elle en faillite, ou cherche t'elle a avoir un maximum de pauvres rapidement pour faire passer son échéancier Européen ? entre autre un revenu universel (qui remplacerait toutes les autres aides) payé en Euro Numérique pour que ces dépenses soient bien contrôlables, éventuellement avec un passeport numérique carbone et santé (car sans carbone c'est la santé !)
Pour en revenir aux chômeurs de 50 ans et plus, jusqu'à présent il y avait une petite chance d'atteindre la retraite, mais là... ils vont être coincés entre deux réformes, et ça va être terrible... :/ Étant donné que les très jeunes (étudiants) ont du mal à bouffer, et que les âges moyens (travailleurs) ont de moins en moins de thunes... à part tourner radicalement la page de cette suite de gouvernements de merde, je ne vois pas.
En réalité, ce n'est pas si difficile, il suffit d'être assez nombreux : * ne plus payer ses impôts (demander à son employeur de mettre le taux à 0) * continuer à payer ses cotisations sociales (pour la sécurité sociale qu'ils n'en profitent pas pour la supprimer) * organiser une vie locale autour d'AMAPS ou de paysans locaux et de services locaux (ne rien acheter dont on ne peut serrer la main du producteur) * et si le produit manque... s'organiser pour le produire
Mais être assez nombreux est certainement le point le plus difficile, il faut que le nombre dépasse ce qu'on pourrait mettre en prison, même en les surchargeant...

I don't know if the technology of the time would've fit into that form factor. Maybe that's why Apple didn't produce it. Thinking about all of the pieces that had to come together to make this work is impressive.
I was surprised he was able to have the floppy drive read native Mac disks. I tried looking up a way to do this recently, looking up some conversion software, and read that no modern floppy drives exist that can read the old GCR format. The documentation suggested finding an old Mac, and to convert old disks using that. Maybe that's old information. Anyone know of modern USB floppy drives that can be used to read old Mac disks?

Zurück nach Syrien? Diskussion über Rückkehr von Flüchtlingen
Das Ende der Assad-Regierung wird auch in Deutschland positiv aufgenommen. In der Politik wird schon darüber diskutiert, was jetzt mit den Hunderttausenden Flüchtlingen passiert.
@ErikUden Alter ... Staub, Schutt und Asche haben sich noch nichtmal gelegt und das ist das Erste, was jetzt diskutiert werden soll? Lasst uns doch mal über Fachkräfte-Zuwanderung reden und wie Deutschland auch für Menschen, die nicht in Deutschland leben, positiv aussehen könnte. Mit Gruß von einer im Ausland lebenden Deutschen.
la Turquie s’apprête à faire une offensive au nord contre les kurdes
Israël et les US se réjouissent de l’arrivée du HTC au pouvoir
HTC financé par les états du Golfe, la Turquie, Israël ou les États Unis. Branche modérée d’Al Qaida, des djihadistes qui ont coupé leur barbe et mis des blazers, donc ça va, « ils donnent des garanties rassurantes » d’après France Inter et Le Monde
pendant ce temps Israël amasse des soldats à la frontière sud de la Syrie, annexe le Golan et des positions stratégiques, bombarde le centre national de renseignements, des bases militaires et des centres de recherche en Syrie, dans l’indifférence absolue des médias et de la communauté internationale
Bref, on doit bien entendu se réjouir de la chute d’El Assad mais le climat côté puissances impérialistes occidentales ne me rend pas optimiste sur les suites de la révolution et l’émancipation du peuple. Le scénario le + optimiste est qu’ils récupèrent un territoire mis en pièce, sans armée, sous protection occidentale… jusqu’à ce qu’un président américain montre un tube d’eau bleue au sénat pour justifier de mener une nouvelle guerre.
Je suis content pour les Syriens mais je m'inquiète pour l'avenir proche...
Since the US has issued warnings to HTC etc. it looks like the Kurds will continue to benefit from the delicate balance of power in Syria. Also, since the population is highly diverse and the forces (now in Damascus) are a broad coalition, it bodes well for a more liberal society, which is the most we could hope for. What will happen in January is of course anybody's guess.
Meanwhile, I'm celebrating for the thousands of prisoners released from Assad's gaols.

"I've observed two distinct patterns in how teams are leveraging AI for development. Let's call them the "bootstrappers" and the "iterators." Both are helping engineers (and even non-technical users) reduce the gap from idea to execution (or minimum viable product (MVP))."
"The Bootstrappers: Zero to MVP: Start with a design or rough concept, use AI to generate a complete initial codebase, get a working prototype in hours or days instead of weeks, focus on rapid validation and iteration."
"The Iterators: daily development: Using AI for code completion and suggestions, leveraging AI for complex refactoring tasks, generating tests and documentation, using AI as a 'pair programmer' for problem-solving."
The "bootstrappers" use tools like Bolt, v0, and screenshot-to-code AI, while "iterators" use tools like Cursor, Cline, Copilot, and WindSurf.
But there is "hidden cost".
"When you watch a senior engineer work with AI tools like Cursor or Copilot, it looks like magic, absolutely amazing. But watch carefully, and you'll notice something crucial: They're not just accepting what the AI suggests. They're constantly: Refactoring the generated code into smaller, focused modules, adding edge case handling the AI missed, strengthening type definitions and interfaces, questioning architectural decisions, and adding comprehensive error handling."
"In other words, they're applying years of hard-won engineering wisdom to shape and constrain the AI's output."
The author speculates on two futures for software: One is "agentic AI", where AI gets better and better and teams of AI agents can take on more and more of the work done by humans, and "software as craft", where humans make high-quality, polished software, with empathy, experience, and caring deeply about craft that can't be AI-generated.
The article used the term "P2 bugs" without explaining what that means. P2 means "priority 2". The idea is people focus all their attention on "priority 1" bugs, but fixing all the "priority 2" bugs is what makes software feel "polished" to the end user.
Commentary: My own experience is that AI is useful for certain use cases. If your situation fits those use cases, AI is magic. If your situation doesn't fit those use cases, AI isn't useful, or is of marginal utility. Because AI is useful-or-not depending on situation, it doesn't provide the across-the-board 5x productivity improvement that employers expect today. My feeling is that the current generation of LLMs aren't good enough to fix this, but because of the employer expectation, I have to keep trying new AI tools in pursuit of the expected 5x improvement in productivity. (If you are able to achieve a 5x productivity improvement over 2 years ago on a large (more than a half million lines of code) codebase written in a crappy language, get in touch with me -- I want to know how you do it.)
Why am I awake? Bright eyed and bushy tailed? Why was I tired last night at 2030 and went to bed then? I actually woke up at 0130 and thought it was because there was a noise or something. But no. Just laid here and listened to the silence. Not a single car or truck on the interstate. There is now though. Still. I bet I could drink a cup of coffee standing in the middle of the road and not get hit the traffic is so light. So been daydreaming. Trying to get back to sleep. To no avail.

How old is Harvey and how aggressive and what form is his cancer? I've lost two dogs to cancer thus far, both started as melanomas then metastasized. Both were Dobermans, one was 12 when we discovered a tumor inside her lip. She lived to 14, but 10-12 is the average lifespan for Dobermans so she was already at the end of her normal lifespan when we discovered the tumor. The other we adopted with a very small tumor (about 1mm) already present at five years old. We had it removed, but he died of cancer two years later, it had spread to his bones. Main point I am making is if the dog is already near the end of it's life and the tumor is not aggressive, it may not negatively impact either it's health or longevity, on the other hand, if young or the tumor is very aggressive, not so good. At any rate, my prayers are with you and your dog, wish and pray for the best possible outcome.
@Jolly Rancher I am so sorry. Not eating and drinking is definitely not good, you can't go more than a few days without water, I don't know how long dogs could go but I would bet not much longer. I had a cat that just stopped eating and wasting away but in his case the vet was never able to determine what was wrong. We spent $3k on radioactive iodine to treat a hyperactive thyroid but even when that was normalized he still wouldn't eat. Eventually got down to seven pounds and too weak to move so we had to put him down at that time. That was about 35 years ago and I still miss him. And one of my current house cats, a strictly indoor cat, escaped and now refuses to come in. Argh. When it's over try to focus on the good times and the love he gave you rather than the grief. That is what has enabled me to move on.
My cat had hepatitis, she turned yellow, dried up wouldn't drink or eat. We gave her parenteral nutrition drips (the kind used for people in comas) for 10 days and she survived.
I just fed him a chicken thigh and half can of ground chicken dog food and he has eaten it all. He has become picky about his diet, so he's getting meat now, and not dry kibble. He is old and arthritic, but he is also a hound. If he does not want to stand up, he will remain on the floor.
We went to the veterinary oncologist this morning. His cancer has been slowly growing, and there is a chemotherapy drug ($$$$) that has maybe a 60% chance of regressing his tumors. He's on prednisone to improve his appetite, and this drug --
Prednisolone lowers the immune system that is needed to fight cancer. It is often prescribed to treat arthritis to relieve pain. It's more of a symptomatic medication one that cures.
billionaire corporations — the most profitable ones are far more abusive. They actively work to create more and more war, ecocide, exploitation and inequality, because these things increase their profits. They lobby governments for more wars and militarism around the world because they manufacture weapons of war. They lobby governments to shrink environmental regulations because they maximize their corporate profits by pillaging the earth and externalizing the costs of industry onto the biosphere we all depend on. They lobby governments for fewer worker protections because worker protections eat into profits. They lobby governments for exploitative trade agreements because globalization gives them a steady supply of cheap wage slaves with fewer workers’ rights. They lobby governments to privatize services and resources so that they can turn things people are already getting into coercive mechanisms of private profit extraction.

#Healthcare as suffering: “We sat in the hospital for 3 days b/c #UnitedHealthcare refused to approve the transfer via ambulance from the hospital where we live to another state. & at that point, I was ready to just get in my car & take her [1-year old baby with a giant brain tumor] there myself. But UHC told us if we left the hospital by our own will, & it wasn’t via ambulance, they were not going to cover her @ the next hospital we went to,” she said.
In the world of home design, creativity knows no bounds. One of the most exciting trends in recent years is the use of artistic mosaic tiles to define and differentiate spaces within a home. Whether you're working with an open-plan layout or simply looking to add a touch of elegance to your living areas, mosaic tiles offer a versatile and visually appealing solution. Let's dive into how you can harness the power of these tiles to create a cohesive and stylish living environment.
The Versatility of Artistic Mosaic Tiles
Artistic mosaic tiles are more than just decorative elements; they are powerful tools for spatial definition. These small, often intricate tiles can be arranged in countless patterns, making them ideal for creating unique features that stand out. Imagine walking into a kitchen where the backsplash isn't just a backsplash—it's a work of art that seamlessly transitions into the dining area. That's the magic of mosaic tiles.
In bathrooms, mosaic tiles can transform a simple wall into a luxurious focal point, while in living spaces, they can be used to create a statement wall that separates the seating area from a reading nook. The possibilities are endless, and the best part? They come in a variety of materials, from ceramic and glass to stone, each offering its own unique aesthetic and durability.
A Personal Touch: A Story of Spatial Definition
I once visited a friend's home where the living area flowed effortlessly into the dining space. What made this transition so seamless was a stunning mosaic tile installation that ran along the perimeter of the living room. The tiles, a blend of glass and ceramic in shades of blue and green, created a ripple effect that not only defined the living area but also added a sense of depth and movement. It was a masterclass in how mosaic tiles can subtly guide the eye and the foot, making each space feel distinct yet connected.
Practical Tips for Choosing and Installing Mosaic Tiles
If you're considering using artistic mosaic tiles in your home, here are some tips to help you make the most of them: - Consider the Flow: Think about how people move through your space. Mosaic tiles can be used to direct traffic or create a natural boundary between areas. For instance, a bold pattern in the entryway can lead the eye into the living room. - Color Coordination: Choose tiles that complement your existing color scheme. Mosaic tiles can either blend with your current decor or stand out as a contrasting feature, depending on the look you're aiming for. - Material Matters: Consider the material of the tiles based on their placement. Glass tiles are great for a modern look and are easy to maintain, while stone tiles add a rustic charm but may require more care. - Pattern Play: Patterns can influence the feel of a space. Geometric patterns can make a room feel more structured, while organic patterns can create a more relaxed atmosphere. - Maintenance Considerations: Different materials have different maintenance needs. For example, glass tiles are easy to clean, while some stone tiles may require sealing.
Embrace the Artistry
In conclusion, artistic mosaic tiles are more than just a design element—they are a way to tell your home's story. Whether you're looking to create a bold statement or a subtle transition, these tiles offer a myriad of options to suit any style. So, why not start small with a feature wall or a unique backsplash? You might just find that mosaic tiles are the perfect way to define your spaces and elevate your home's aesthetic.
Remember, the key is to have fun with it. After all, your home is your canvas, and mosaic tiles are your colorful brushes. Happy designing!

a surprisingly large part of my enjoyment of retroprogramming is that they are the only ones who say "blit" with any frequency. I love that work. Love me a good blit. I can even get by on a Blt, like a WinGStretchBlt, to randomly name an API from 30 years ago.
retroprogramming lets me enter a time when blits were a thick forest, instead of the paved subdivision that remains, where the blits are few and far between.
Why would anyone write such a thing in 2024? We've got high level languages and GPUs and such, you don't even have to know x86 assembly! You can program high-tech 3D graphics game and write it in that old language that used to only be used for setting the window titlebar for your geocities page! You can program a whole game and not write a line of code, with visual blueprints!
I'm writing code to intercept the game's blits and reroute them to my own custom blit subroutines that modify the arguments and call different underlying graphics calls.
There's blits inside blits. detoured blits. blit patches. I had to move the blit code from one assembler to another, for more efficient blitting.
You go to modern graphics and your low level is triangles, not blits. And yo'u're probably not that low level, not anywhere near it: your low level are game objects with their own shaders and lighting engines and layers and such.
I own books with entire chapters dedicated to documenting how the blits in Doom and Wolfenstein 3D worked, because they were groundbreaking and clever and a huge part or why those games were so successful: they took great use of the hardware to maximize their performance, in a genre where fast action really mattered.
actually one of my first big C projects (after a Super Mario Bros 1 pseuoleveleditor) was a port of Doom to Windows, using the Allegro toolkit. I recall a lot of that work was hooking up different blits to different parts of allegro.

ITM y'all - since the Vicki Noodleman F the EU clip came up again on today's show, I thought I would re-share an ANA I did summer of last year, which was the last time the full clip was played on the show.
It's a long clip (esp for ANA), but maybe a good way to hit people in the mouth (again).
I'm hoping to get back to doing ANA's in the recent future. In the meantime, pls enjoy this oldie. :)

Thank you! I really miss doing them. I had to let the software license expire because #poor (Thanks, Bidenomics) but I have a new short-term project that allows me to reactive it for the next 2-3 months (LGY!), so I hope to get in a couple os ANA's soon-ish.

The US Congress, supported by the Heritage Foundation and "Victims of Communism", has overwhelmingly passed a bipartisan bill that requires "educating" schoolchildren about the dangers of communism.
1. They learned nothing from flushing millions of dollars on the DARE programme which just ended up spawning the default T-shirt for stoners.
2. That railing against Communism looks remotely sane in any modern context. Either they're admitting the 1991/End of History narrative is dead, or they picked the zaniest possible way to deliver their "let's bring back the 1950s" campaign promises to white men. Maybe they can move the Dodgers back to Brooklyn too.
@hakfoo lol yeah the whole thing is just so incoherent. Our system is the best possible, but we also need to spend billions to spread propaganda about evil of communism because we're really insecure.
Israeli ground forces have overtly crossed into Syrian territory for the first time since the 1973 October War, passing the demilitarized border zone, two Israeli officials said.
I don't think about my age a lot, but when I do, I panic. I guess it's because my memory kind of reboots every day (SDAM), and I don't have those emotional memories to go into and make me feel I have lived a full life. I feel like I'm just starting, and I'm already pretty old, I have no time, I have no life.
It's probably going to be worse as I get older. How will it feel to be 70 with no feeling of self, no identity, no emotional memories of my life? Just... empty. I will panic.

Edit: I found a very helpful thread on BlueSky I'll share here for people like me who are new do discovering their own neurodivergent needs and the complex landscape of autism advocacy. (bsky.brid.gy/r/bsky.app/profil…)
OP: I personally feel this is why I used the HSP label for so many years. I land somewhere in the middle. I still believe in increasing awareness for neurodiversity to reduce unnecessary suffering. And, there needs to be very mindful and intentional efforts to not romanticize it or marginalize the most vulnerable.
"Autism is arguably one of the most controversial subjects of our time. Due partly to a lack of understanding of its causes, current discourse on this subject is a narrative jungle strewn with young, overgrown and ill-conceived ideas jostling for a spot in the sun, including uncompassionate ‘refrigerator mothers’, microbial infections, vaccinations, and environmental pollutants and toxicants, to name but a few.
Into this maelstrom came the neurodiversity movement, whose advocates celebrate autism as a gift that is an integral part of identity. They promise to make the voices of autistics heard, and to improve their quality of life by making the world more accepting of, and accommodating for, them, after decades of being marginalised and victimised. However, in recent years, there has been a backlash against this – growing numbers of people are now speaking out against the neurodiversity movement, claiming that it does not represent them and, more importantly, that it ignores the plight of those with severe autism."
