tried to explain to someone today that using signal group chats is all well & good but it does increase your attack surface linearly with the number of participating devices so maybe discuss things accordingly even without a subpoena-able record & they looked at me like. wait. don't you teach sports

Ever wondered how SkyTrace works, what data we collect, or how to opt out? I've added an FAQ page to the SkyTrace website that will (hopefully) answer those questions and more. skytrace.aly.town/faq

added support for a minimum threshhold for (blocking) moderation list subscription to SkyTrace so in the future I have the option of it not serving abusive lists that exist solely for name-calling and aren't actually subscribed to, while still keeping traceability for real moderation services.

I am inclined to not Believe The User on this one, if the claim is that users did not know this was possible, mainly because we have been having a slow-moving 30 year moral panic about exactly this kind of thing.

My Judaica publisher told me rabbis keep filling his Talmud margins so I asked how many margins he has and he said he just goes to print and adds wider margins afterwards so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding whitespace to rabbis and then his printer started crying.

I'm a free information radical. I have spent most of my career publishing open-source code and building open-information systems. I grew up getting access to knowledge that I never would've otherwise had because of the Internet. The past 5 years have accelerated it. I think the future is bright.

Attie lets you explore the public data on the AT Protocol, it is not a life assistant and does not run on your PC and it respects blocks. what is the comparison here exactly?

When it does well it's because DHH did it. When it doesn't do well well that's the Agent's fault. DHH would never.

it's not the code that makes him bad, that's bad too. it's not even the racism. it's the immediate rejection of responsibility. you like it? that was me, i did that. you think it's dumb? i didn't do anything, that was my agents that's also been something he's shown the whole 20y i've known his name

I’m not saying that there are no arguments for DHH being, say, a decent engineer who is now incredibly lazy, sure but I do wonder why it always correlates with “actually London *is* too Black and Asian and Denmark *should* shoot gypsies like dogs, wdym I’m a nazi?”

if you’re going to post a wall of slop to convince yourself—not me—that DHH is actually a genius, please be my guest, but keep it outside my mentions.
