Breakfast is my life's work.
All good things start with a roux.
Jeg er virkeligt bekymret over udviklingen. Ikke kun digitalt, men i samfundet generelt.
Privatliv handler ikke om at have noget at skjule, men om at have noget, der er eget. Noget, som ikke er til vurdering. Ikke til salg. Ikke til visning. Noget, der er fredet, fordi det er dér, vi bliver til som mennesker.
Hannah Arendt skrev, at det totalitære begynder med at udviske grænsen mellem det private og det offentlige. Når alt skal være synligt, bliver intet helligt. (1/3)

#ICE Is Using a New #FacialRecognition App to Identify People, Leaked Emails Show. “The new tool, called Mobile Fortify, uses the CBP system which ordinarily takes photos of people when they enter or exit the U.S., according to internal ICE emails viewed by 404 Media. Now ICE is using it in the field.” | 404 Media https://www.404media.co/ice-is-using-a-new-facial-recognition-app-to-identify-people-leaked-emails-show/
Me enseñaron a usar "usted" con desconocidos. La wiki de Indieweb usa "tú". Mi sitio web personal abarca algunos temas profesionales, pero es principalmente informal. Me cuesta decidirme, ¡y luego me cuesta con la conjugación después de elegir!
IndieWeb Create Day - July 2025 #indieweb #iwc #community https://www.luisquintanilla.me/posts/indieweb-create-day-2025-07?utm_medium=feed
For years I have relied on the maps at https://native-land.ca to help me understand the history of the land I am on. Today I discovered it has an AI tool called Kōrero that you can converse with to create a personalized land acknowledgement statement. (As I am what many would consider an “AI skeptic” I want to call it out when I see a large language model actually doing something useful.)
Below is the statement it created with my input. I love it!
With gratitude, I reflect on my lifelong connection to this land—home to the Lumbee, Skaruhreh/Tuscarora, Cheraw, Mánu: Yį Įsuwą (Catawba), Saponi, Occaneechi, Eno, and Shakori peoples, whose care for these waters and forests sustains us still. As someone who walks the banks of the Eno, I commit to honoring their legacy by protecting this river, supporting my neighbors, and tending to the land as a humble participant in its story. Let my actions—from mutual aid to mindful stewardship—be a small continuation of the care that has shaped this place for millennia.
XSLT is a functional language for manipulating primarily tree-structured data and information, such as you might find in XML or JSON or HTML for example.
Someone recently asked me for an XSLT course that includes XSLT 4; usually i teach XSLT 3, the latest, but 4 is in preparation. It's not quite ready for production use, but if you want to be ahead of the curve the course might go ahead in the next month or two.
DM if interested.

On the topic, I thought this series was quite good:

It does a really good job of bringing together the threads of climate change, infrastructure, and the experiences of human beings.
Project Gutenberg turns 54!
On July 4, 1971, Michael Hart had the idea of using a computer to read and enjoy literature. This innovation led to the creation of Project Gutenberg, which continues to thrive today.

I've been working on the website for the WFSA - the World Freestyle Skateboarding Association - for the best part of a year.
It has become very apparent that next to no one knows what #RSS is these days (or realises that it still exists), and I think that needs to change - so this is now on the sidebar for every article on the site.
RSS is the most useful tool possible for getting away from the "siloification" of the internet. It needs to be more widely used!
Not another nickel for the state of Israel.

Welp. Between this and the earlier AI-"written" book, I am thisclose to recommending that we cease purchasing titles from Springer
"Based on a tip from a reader, we checked 18 of the 46 citations in the book. Two-thirds of them either did not exist or had substantial errors. And three researchers cited in the book confirmed the works they supposedly authored were fake or the citation contained substantial errors."

@randahl Fascists will literally destroy each other instead of going to therapy.
Back in the day, Twitter used to be really good if I set up a thread to connect freelancers with clients. Let's see if Mastodon can do it.
Clients: if you're looking for freelancers/contractors, get in the comments
Freelancers/contractors: get in the comments
Everyone else: boosts appreciated.
The market is *dead* for freelancers and a big part of that (in my opinion) is fragmentation. Let's get that network effect *back*.
