Always check your kids Halloween candy, my kid just found this privacy policy update which auto opted them in to their data being used to train AI models.

My workplace is looking for a PHP / Laravel full stack dev to join my team. Fully remote, well established Sydney-based SaaS app. I think it's a great place to work. AU compatible timezones preferred. All experience levels welcome to apply, DM for more details.

PHP is *not* slower than JS on the server!

@futurebird

Definitely some of the most overtly fascist and horrifying language I’ve seen used officially. It’s not a dog whistle it’s a foghorn.

Responding to difficult questions by saying "Look, I'm not going to lie ..." and then leaving the room.

@evan People wearing headphones staring at their phones, entranced. No eye contact, no conversation, no situational awareness.

@koosli No because my wife does it. I prefer it made but I probably wouldn’t bother unless she did it because I’m a little piggy. She does it because she prefers it not because I prefer it. Don’t @ me, I cook the dinner and wash the dishes!

@koosli I guess that makes me a little piggy.

@jenn “I noticed your website doesn’t use the power of chainsaws.”

@thomasfuchs Not disagreeing with you at all, but isn’t the “non-determinism” just an illusion created by a pseudorandomly generated parameter? Like any neural network, the same model should always give the same result for the same parameters right?

@rysiek @tek @pluralistic This is how I read it as well!

Starship Enterprise implies the existence of Starship Free, Starship Personal, Starship Cloud (Most Popular), Starship Cloud Pro, Starship Cloud Pro PLUS, and Starship On Premises (Contact for pricing).

@evan ?

@evan When is this track of yours gonna drop?

@cwebber We’ve been through this. ActivityPub is on Thursday nights at the Irish pub. Everybody brings an activity to do or share while we hang out. E.g. a board game, some craft etc. Threads is a guild of knitting clubs that meet weekly. They are moving their weekly meeting to Thursdays at the same pub, and say you can bring *any* activity.

@jan Also that dude seems to have direct read access.

@thomasfuchs Yep. Not enough computers.

@goodthinking @ajsadauskas I guess that makes you a “content creator”.

@evan Toilet cleaning is a scam manufactured and perpetuated by Big Peroxide. Toilets are natural and have their own microbiome which stabilises if left for a couple of months. The aroma and colour are normal and indicate that the process is working.

@Cleopatra @tb Besides, given that we don't have any knowledge of the future, I don't think we should be murdering random babies on the off-chance that they might turn out to be a psychopathic murderous dictator.
