@GossiTheDog here is the CEO of Zapier saying that all new hires must be "AI fluent" - and what that means.

Mainly, it seems to mean to uncritically adopt AI for all kinds of workflows.

@ajsadauskas @jeffjarvis.bsky.social A lot.

As someone who was born in East Germany and witnessed the changes of 1989/90 up close, this article touches on all the salient points:

@evan the poll question should be: which of these browsers do you distrust the least.

Because that's what using browsers comes down to these days.

@gamingonlinux At this point in time I will say to Debian 'Good on you', but also ask 'Took you until now to figure this out?'.

@mikey @grumpasaurus @mekkaokereke Bluey is fantastic. First time I heard about it I thought it was just another silly kids show. It took all of watching one or two episodes in earnest to completely change my mind.

@mekkaokereke And lately, the problem with controlled burns is that the window to do them safely in is getting tighter every year (I wonder why (no I don't)). Even if you had the manpower and resources to do all the preventative burn-offs you needed to do, you probably still couldn't do it due to unfavourable weather conditions.

My wife is involved with these kind of burns in a small area here in Queensland, AU. Even they haven't been able to do as much as they reasonably needed this past year.

@mekkaokereke how much of a role do for-profit prisons play in this?

@FediFollows Holy crap, that's me! @making_tracks is my Peertube account! Thank you for the shoutout!
