Seeing the updates from https://frame.work/, I'm so happy I spent money on this machine. I won't be buying any new hardware (yet, I'm thinking of doubling my RAM) but the fact that we finally have an ARM offering, a matte screen and newer board for Intel? Pretty dope. I do want to consider getting my new home PC to be within the chassis they're suggested. Only if I need it — I don't right now.
Don't know how I missed this happening at Microsoft. https://www.gamesindustry.biz/zenimax-qa-workers-form-union. More unionization efforts within the software industry.
If you're in a position where you can determine if a union contract can pass (an executive or close to such, like an SVP) and you're actively against it internally, say that externally. Let the people who you're lying to on a daily basis that you, in fact, do not value them and see them as nothing more than an "expensive line item". Retract any mentions of caring about people from your company's messaging because internally, it's a farce.
If you allegedly trust the skill and minds of your workers, then have enough respect to allow them to be fully recognized in the procedure of every day operations, not as some "asset" but an authority over what they do — that's why you hired them.
Read https://about.sourcegraph.com/blog/cheating-is-all-you-need and this is a decent intro to what LLMs are and how they can be used (from chat assistants to automation levers) and it does constantly shock me that the more people entertain this, they don't realize how they're opening a hatch to the bottom of open roles that'll weaken (and move) lower income roles and positions that are conventionally deemed as "creative" to abuse. It's a toy to people who can't relate beyond themselves, and a flag of fear to those who understand how the history of automation has led more people to more abusive situations.
Yeah, that'd be a good heuristic to use!
Good question. PKCE is an extension and not part of OAuth main (from what I understand) so I imagine that state and the PKCE logic allows for some more validation that a server and client can allow for verification, like being able to choose what kind of hashing algorithm in advance (my implementation opts for S512).
Got to that via https://mmapped.blog/posts/17-scaling-rust-builds-with-bazel.html, another good read about a journey of different build processes for Rust (which ironically promotes using Google's build system, Bazel).
Whew. https://www.roguelazer.com/2020/07/etcd-or-why-modern-software-makes-me-sad/. I wish this (the effects of working at FAANG/MANGA companies and spreading those corporate processes into other places only because of some idea that "it's the best way to do things") was something more people pushed against. It definitely happened at Lyft when I worked there with the influx of Google and Facebook developers basically strong arming internal services to use more Google-y shit.
This looks pretty cool. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fluxkeyboard/flux-keyboard-the-keyboard-reinvented

That thirty million could have been spent on so many things. Like keeping Persona going. Or providing e-mail services to give people a way out of Google and Microsoft. https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/introducing-mozilla-ai-investing-in-trustworthy-ai/. What are these executives thinking?
Ah Dr. Stone is coming back (the anime) and I am very happy, lol. I still need to finish Jojo (I think I might start reading the manga starting from the very beginning).
Interesting. I wanna see the makeup of those participating versus those who promoted this trend. https://www.fastcompany.com/90847899/how-a-viral-tiktok-trend-vandalized-kia-brand
It's like charging people for bottled water (or fucking bottling water and not building public infra to distribute water to whomever wants and need it - because you need it to stay alive) but in the realm of knowledge. Fuck them.
Fuck publishing houses for using copyright as an angle to control what gets to be put into mainstream circulation. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/03/book-publishers-with-surging-profits-struggle-to-prove-internet-archive-hurt-sales/
Heh, when a "handy" service becomes almost pointless.
AK Press is giving away three books (one of which I'd recommend: As Black as Resistance by Zoe Samudzi and by a respected author, William C. Anderson - got a two-peat in this listing).

The only true benefits of these events are the profits of private companies and officials that can yo-yo between private and public sectors (like DAGs that go from Lockheed to Purdue or public CTOs that've worked in companies that employed violent systems on civilians, like Raytheon or Palantir). Not something that's really reported (gags are held in media for "reasons", if not shot down) in commerical media as well.
