Fedi users: we want protection / safety / moderation tools!

The actual incident was that I had my acceptance offers revoked and was banned from that year’s event because I joked “be strong because rejection emails are going out” on the grounds that speakers are “not allowed to say anything negative about the event”.
Like I said, the organizers had no sense of humour. No, I won’t publicly name the event because they know what they did. They still send me emails asking me to come as if I will forget how they treated me.

I am old enough to remember Napster being sued out of existence for asking to treat copyrighted material the same way OpenAI wants to, but I guess the “wrong people” were involved with Napster as opposed to the grifters at OpenAI
TIL about “congenital naysayers” — a great label for a lot of behaviours that frustrate me #phptek24
Thinking about the AI skill threat:
$100/hr to fix your stuff
$200/hr if you did it with AI
@evan I have two Norse mythology tattoos — one of Odin’s ravens and Mjolnir on the inside of my left and right forearms respectively
Anyway, on a Friday where I have made myself despair about my chosen industry, I am going to change things up. Give me answers and I will make up questions for them.
Call it Grumpy Jeopardy /ht @doppynl for the idea
Writing that long post on my thoughts on LLM’s solidified for me that the shittiest people keep making generational wealth online. My own efforts have touched thousands of people but still a wage slave in my early 50’s.
@evan And he blew that one up too…metaphorically driving a car through the relationship
@evan I know this is the point of the episode but that family is so incredibly dysfunctional. I could not cope with that
Asking people to care about everything or only the thing you view as important both lead to the same outcome of nobody giving a shit
@janl Upping the beard game is next
@Crell This is far from a one-sided conflict and I am disappointed so many refuse to see it that way.
I remain convinced the only reason SBF ended up getting punished is because he stole from other rich people.
Loving a job that will never love you back is the first step of a journey that ends in burnout and despair. So many of my peers and are so bad at setting the boundaries that our profession requires but refuses to acknowledge.
“Believe in automated testing as a path to better outcomes” was a random thing I stumbled across on 2003 and it changed my life. No regrets.
True wisdom.
I would say this type of road calming is working exactly as intended. Slow the hell down and pay attention.
@evan Definitely no polls ???
The arrival of a new RPG manual always brings with it a combination of hope and chaos.
