There’s been quite the uptick in open source projects very clearly being “vibe coded”. Super easy to tell when they all have readmes littered with emojis. Dunno why these LLMs lean so heavily on them but I’m grateful they do, makes spotting AI slop a lot easier.

Give the trash panda due process or we riot.

Trump's proposed and actual travel bans target 48 countries. All 48 are non-white, while no majority-white country is targeted. It's a travel ban on brown people. Also: He's ended all refugee and asylum seekers except white South Africans. Racism is US policy now.

@jason I think it’s free on Xbox too.

New, by me: How Each Pillar of the 1st Amendment is Under Attack

In an address to Congress this month, President Trump claimed he had "brought free speech back to America." But barely two months into his second term, the president has waged an unprecedented attack on the First Amendment rights of journalists, students, universities, government workers, lawyers and judges.

This story explores a slew of recent actions by the Trump administration that threaten to undermine all five pillars of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees freedoms concerning speech, religion, the media, the right to assembly, and the right to petition the government and seek redress for wrongs.

@Oregon_Pacifist ah. I’ve talked to people who shared accounts when they were younger and wished they had their own gamertag instead.

@Oregon_Pacifist you don’t want her to start her own achievement legacy?

I think we are going to end up with a split web... on one side there will be the billionaires and tech bros, algorithms and false narratives... on the other there will be the rest of us.

@aparrish Every single time I hear the sentiment "like it or not, ______ is here to stay", I like to take a moment to reflect on the overwhelming majority of "things we were told would be permanent" that now, *shockingly*, no longer exist.😮🫢🤗🙄

@briankrebs new way to grift? “Bribe another country” and basically have them store some of it for him to get at a later date?

Human nature being what it is, it seems extremely likely that sometime today we will see millions of U.S.-based TikTok users installing some shady or "free" VPN software just to get around the ban.

So even though we banned TikTok, ostensibly for security reasons, we end up creating an even bigger security problem when millions of people install some app that can read and modify all traffic.

@hryb So just a rebrand to use iPhone phrases instead?

I guess this happened too.
