New Yorkers, at what stage does the Ramones’ Rockaway Beach chorus stop kicking around your brain when waiting on the A line?

Are there docs updates or tutorials/pointers that would’ve made it less steep?

I think I’m on cortado number 7…I almost…don’t want any more coffee? Didn’t know that was possible!

Had to do some emergency flight reshuffling, and now the Timeshift app says I get to drink coffee from 8am to 10pm. This is the coffee enablement I've been searching for since 15.

Two of my repeated (but favorite!) conversations at TrustCon were about how other trust and safety organizations can open source some of their work, and how to _actually_ consume open source software. You hit the download button and then..? Now written up, and with slightly better artisanal visuals

Making a last minute trip across the Atlantic and itineraries might leave me with an open night in London in a few weeks... There was some budding interest in open source solutions for online safety at @protocolsforpublishers.com; worth a meetup/show-and-tell on the topic?

The greyhound would like to remind you that both are possible

I am pleased indeed. The geoduck didn’t ask for this; they just want to squirt at people at low tide!

I haven’t had enough coffee yet to bring anything serious to the internet, so here’s a good dog to start Monday.

I see AI has moved on from "load bearing" to "shape while the concrete is still wet." What school of construction did these machines go to that we're pouring concrete without a mold?

I've been doing paperwork with "State of Delaware" headers this week, and I can't open these documents without hearing Dropkick screaming "to the State of Massachusetts!" Someone had to know this was kicking around in my brain, and now you do, dear internet.

Is it happy? Is it angry? Does it just want to tell you about the freedoms of open source and steal your fries? Never felt more seen by an animal bot account.

It raises the “how do we triage and respond to vulnerabilities at bigger scale?” But that was already in discussion.

030

Anne Bertucio de Hollembeak @annebdh.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Lukewarm take: the OpenAI and Huggingface incident is interesting because of how many steps were involved, but it isn’t about “what do we do with AI?” It was a chain of exploits that were found and kicked off the (imperfect but) established vulnerability response processes for both companies.

If you’re curious about this open source and free tools thing people keep talking about at #TrustCon, join @julietshen.bsky.social and I at 12:15pm today for the open source lunch meetup. Bring all your questions, requests, and ideas!

Charging all my batteries (literal and metaphorical) for #TrustCon next week. Holler if you want to talk about what ROOST is up to, or open source for safety more broadly!

Unfortunately no :( Still on the hunt for livestream-compatible models, more TVEC models, etc etc etc!

I haven’t been social media-ing much these days, but today is this distinguished gentleman’s 12th birthday. He’s now spent 3 times more living a life of spoiled luxury than he spent at the racetrack, and I think we’re both grateful for that.

Gate agent is making boarding announcements with the same tone you’d use to assure toddlers at a birthday party they *will* get a cupcake, but it’s not time yet. It appears to be highly effective.

Coop

Coop is an open source review tool that enables organizations of all sizes to implement scaled review and automated safety solutions.

Join the @roost.tools crew on Thursday to see the Coop content review console in action and hear from some of the #opensource contributors who made this release possible. If you're just getting started in #trustandsafety, or feeling overwhelmed by manual review spreadsheets, Coop is where to start!

If you’re not in the weeds on online safety: - models are (and have been) how to classify potentially harmful content - but they’re expensive and come with their own harm and behavior definitions - this one is cheap, open source, and responds to *your* content policies Huge kudos to Zentropi!

I've seen a few copyleft folks arguing that agentic coding could actually bring more emphasis to copyleft and the free/libre movements. It wasn't an argument I was expecting; it's an interesting one! www.gjlondon.com/blog/ai-agen...

Grateful to have @hailey.at @tpepper.bsky.social and @tgthorley.bsky.social to be along for the as @roost.tools navigates all this. ROOST tools protect hundreds of millions of users. We should be using advancements to protect them *and* provide stable, critical software.

What changes is still all in flux! - Does the idea that OSS becomes a reference for agents (instead of import) hold water? If so, is that necessarily bad? - How can you give an agent tightly scoped instructions to stay within a "low tech debt" diff of main?
