This amazing new kitchen appliance will let you cook a meal in half the time. Every now and again it’ll slip in some fecal matter or a poison mushroom.

That’s Copilot for programming.

I’ll be honest, hearing SEO people complain about the state of Google now is like hearing an arsonist complain that they just can’t get the quality of kerosene they used to.

I played this with a friend today in Akihabara: [[typing of the dead]].

It's honestly a lot of fun.

When someone questions the role of linking or dismisses it as spammy behaviour, they are often viewing it through the #closedweb lens, where linking outside the walled garden is discouraged or penalized. The #openweb, however, relies on this practice to thrive. So, before sounding off with uninformed critiques, remember: linking on the #openweb is fundamentally different from linking on the #closedweb.

#Openweb: This refers to the original, decentralized ethos of the internet, built on openness, freedom, and people's autonomy. Linking enhances knowledge sharing, amplifies lesser-known voices, and enables people to explore varied content freely.

#Closedweb: This describes platforms dominated by algorithms, corporate interests, and paywalls. On #dotcons, linking is often spam and is penalized or buried, precisely because it can disrupt the curated control these platforms wield over what people see.

I'm not usually a fan of meme translations, but I think it wouldn't be inappropriate to translate the scene where Kodachi meets Ranma and instantly falls for him with "oh no, he's hot!"

Remember also that part of the adversary here is foreign governments, not actual candidates. Their goal is not necessarily to pick the winner, but rather to weaken the legitimacy of the US government's ability to function. Disinformation about election integrity is a central weapon in their arsenal for achieving this.

The concern here is that old search engines can give you links and you can go into them to verify the content. AI taking over our search engines hides the sources of information, forcing us to blindly trust the AI and wherever it got its information from.

Instead of "bus number", we should talk about "VC number", like what's the likelihood of somebody rolling up with a dumptruck full of cash and turning the project into a promotion maximizer?
