ICE Accidentally Sends Maduro Back to Venezuela

@leckse @pty @overflo leider passiert, nach meiner Erfahrung, auch nach nem Strafverfahren nicht viel, weil auch die strafen ein Witz sind und selbst wenn die gerechter wären, kommt es, schon allein wegen der Anzahl an Problemen, nicht oft genug zu nem Strafverfahren.

Here's a mini guide on how to bring your website to up-to-date standards! You don't even need to have AI to be an AI company

Screenshot of a series of search input updated to make them look like all those AI websites

Update your search input for the Al era
Take your old, dated input
Screenshot of a basic input with a search icon, search placeholder and Search button

Make it monobloc
Same thing but with the button inside the input

Round everything, it's 2025
Same thing but rounded

Center that text
Placeholder centered and a small horizontal separator between icon and input

Change the vocabulary and use an abstract random shape for the icon
Placeholder is now "Find anything", button is "Ask" and the search icon is now a random shape

Add the Al Glow™
Same thing but with a gradient glow around the input and as the background of the button

I knew about the radiation and cooling issues, but I didn't consider Bandwidth and Power Generation. The scale of these datacenters is really mind-boggling.

Depression isn’t always tears and darkness.
It’s staring at your phone, knowing you should reply, but feeling frozen.
It’s eating cereal for dinner because cooking feels impossible.
It’s sitting in your car because you don’t have the energy to go inside.
It’s wanting connection, but feeling too fucking drained to engage.

Unix - BSD developers : this code should run and be maintained as long as computers exist.

Linux - GNU dev : this code should run and be maintained as long as someone is willing to do the work

Consultant: this code should run until the end of my contract.

Enterprise grade B2B software : this code should run till the end of the demonstration to that big customer.

Vibe coding : You are perfectly right. The code doesn’t run. Try this one. You are right, it deleted your hard disk, I’m sorry.

Erinnert ihr euch noch an SETI@home? Damit konnte man dem SETI Projekt seine Rechenleistung zur Verfügung stellen, um Radiosignale nach Spuren von Außerirdischen zu durchsuchen. Zu Glanzzeiten standen dem Projekt 700 TeraFLOPs Rechenleistung zur Verfügung.

Heute verbrennen wir ZettaFLOPs, das 10.000.000-fache, für schlechten Code, falsche Antworten und herzlose Kunst.

Früher war mein lieblings-unnützes Wissen ja, dass Wombats Würfel scheissen.
Inzwischen habe ich gelernt, dass Koalas 2 Daumen haben und daher immer KI generiert aussehen und das finde ich tendenziell noch besser.

How broken is today's frontend culture?

@fugueish points out that the median *mobile* page is now larger than a copy of DOOM (2.6 MiB vs. 2.48 MiB), the P75 page is larger than 2 DOOMs, and the P90 mobile page is 4.5x the size of DOOM:

Linux is an operating system on which you need to type cryptic commands to make it do what you want.

Windows is an operating system on which you need to type cryptic commands to make it not do what you don’t want.

MacOS is an operating system that makes what Apple want, no matter what cryptic commands you type.

Meme of currently collapsing infrastructure of the internet. An edit of the XKCD Dependency comic.
A big stack of blocks depicting “all modern digital infrastructure”
At the bottom is a big foundation on four pillars labelled “C developers writing dynamic arrays”
On top of that is a thin pillar which everything on top of it balances upon, labelled with an image of a shark biting an undersea internet cable.
Balancing on top of that is a wide block called “Linux foundation”
On top of that are two small pillars supporting everything above it labelled “DNS”
A bit further up are stacked medium sized blocks “aws”, “Cloudflare”, and a small pillar beside it labelled “unpaid opensource developers” holding up everything above it
A bit further up is a device with a crank that tilts the entire stack above it (I forgot the name) labelled “AI”
Beside the stack is Ferris (rust mascot) on a rocket labelled “rust devs doing their thing”
On the other side is Red (the angry bird) flying at the stack, labelled “whatever Microsoft is doing”
The stack splits in two halves, with one containing “oracle” and on top of that “jvm”, with the other half being the rest of this description:
Further up the stack is a thin pillar labelled “crowdstrike”
Even further up is a thinner pillar holding up the rest of the stack single-handedly labelled “left-pad”
The entire rest of the stack is labelled “something happening in the web”, with blocks for V8 and wasm, wedging and levering up the stack, and on top is a

@scy Aktuelle Staffel keine Ahnung, die guck ich nicht. Vorherige Staffeln würde ich jetzt nicht sagen, aber wer suchet der findet sicher irgendwas.

Es gibt einen Namen, krass, damit hätte ich nicht mehr gerechnet.

Ich hatte eigentlich schon mit der ganzen Sache abgeschlossen, mich dem ganzen jetzt nochmal stellen zu müssen ist echt hart.

Ich weiß grade auch gar nicht ob ich das möchte, aber klar ist auch das ich das machen muss, was der getan hat darf nicht einfach so durch gehen.
