This. 100%. If you absolutely need to doom spiral right this second: log off. You’re fully entitled to feel how you feel, but skeeting “We’re so fucked” thrice daily like a Gregorian chant helps nothing and no one, including yourself. And decent odds those strangers you’re arguing with are bots.

Remember Kids, there's an MSQ relevant cutscene during Stone Vigil too, and if you kill the boss while a sprout is listening to Lahabrea babble you are, in fact, a complete shithead.

A thing I think about a lot is how directly this stuff is descended from casino customer-tracking apps as they were emerging in the 90s. Addiction By Design covers this in a chapter - casinos harvest data on videoslot players and then measure exactly where their "Frustration point" is on losses.

Even if you don't like AI, it's important to understand that not all AI is the same. You should appreciate that the more powerful versions absolutely do threaten people's jobs and we should be figuring out how to prepare for that as a society.

Perhaps instead of Columbus Day we can celebrate Columbian Exchange Day where we celebrate the food pairings that had never been possible before, peppers and onions, chocolate and coffee, basil and tomatoes.

I still enjoy being able to flip back to Following to make sure I haven’t missed anything from my most crucial people, though, and I’m not sure I’d be better off without even having that option

On the other hand, I don’t actually follow you and only found this through For You For You is my primary way of interacting with BlueSky / ATProto now So maybe this dream isn’t wrong, it’s just everyone else (including default BlueSky Discover feed) has an algorithm skill issue

On the one hand, this gives me bad vibes because it’s the same dream that‘s already lead so many social networks to default to or push an algorithmic feed over a feed of people I asked to hear from, a decision which has been pretty universally bad in my experience, at best misguided

I’m thinking mostly about websites that, even when you go to the UI for choosing specific cookies, make it hard to save your choices rather than go back to All or Nothing

🍂 Arashikou 🐸 @arashikou.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
I get why cookie disclosure UIs are designed to encourage / trick people to click “Allow All.” What’s interesting to me is how many websites seems optimized to get you to say “No Cookies” if you won’t accept them all. What’s the advantage to the website there vs letting you choose?

BTW the way I use punctuation in my semi-formal prose is to follow the rules when it aids in clarity, and otherwise focus on how my voice comes through to the reader, even if it means not being strictly correct. I think many skilled writers do it this way

saying that LLMs makes you lazy is mostly incorrect, and ignores one of the actually harmful things about them: it means that as long as you're still capable of talking, you're capable of working. you can overwork yourself in ways that were never remotely possible before

Alas, I don’t know if news agencies have access to transcripts, and even if so, it would probably make it harder to sensationalize the articles, so I'm skeptical we’ll see it soon

I want to start seeing this in reporting so bad 🥺 I feel like showing people alleged consequences of using AI without showing the actual interactions is subtly contributing to non-users’ disconnection with what AI is & isn’t capable of and what healthy & unhealthy usage looks like

It's amazing to see people now just buying cheap hardware off AliExpress and turning it into 10x the value by building better firmware with Opus 5.5. For example, this 60$ synth now has firmware options that add lots of new features or even turn it into a Groovebox.

I want #VRChat to be a place where people are free to create differently from me. Don't want to experience AI-assisted work? Ask for the tools to make that choice. But our personal boundaries don't have to become everyone else's rules. More art in the world, not less.
Tall activist-style poster in hot pink, near-black, and white, using bold condensed typography, rough painted accents, and flat high-contrast color fields. Its message advocates creative pluralism: personal boundaries around generative AI without imposing those boundaries on other creators.

“This world supports

YOUR RIGHT TO CREATE
DIFFERENTLY THAN I DO.

Don’t like generative AI?
DON’T USE IT.

Don’t want to visit AI-assisted worlds?
DON’T VISIT THEM.

Want tools to identify or filter AI-assisted content?
THAT’S A REASONABLE THING TO ASK FOR.

But someone else’s art does not become an injury simply because it was made differently from yours.

I WILL NOT DEFEND CREATIVITY
BY DEMANDING LESS OF IT.

What can I do?

PLAYERS:
Explore what interests you.
Ignore what doesn’t.
Ask for better discovery and filtering tools.
Treat creators like people even when you dislike their methods.
Your boundaries don’t have to become everyone else’s rules.

CREATORS:
Make things.
Make strange things.
Make handmade things.
Make procedural things.
Make AI-assisted things.
Make things using combinations nobody has named yet.
Tell people how you made them when that context matters.
Then let the work speak too.

MORE ART IN THE WORLD
NOT LESS.”

the gamer entitlement is fucking insane. they're yelling at a developer who has spent a decade of his time writing Dolphin and PPSSPP for using Claude to build a prototype. the same people who don't pay for their emulator, certainly don't pay for ROMs are entitled to bully developers now?

I've been lately seeing reddit posts where you have people interacting speaking in different languages without even bothering to translate. I guess on the fly translation in browser has just gotten that good? It's kinda neat to imagine the Internet knitted together across languages.

This AI shit is so groundbreaking it got google to acknowledge fuchsia again
• Large Scale Codebase Migrations and
Optimizations: Argon agents are working on migrating C/C++ codebases to Rust across Google - scaling from tens of thousands of lines in core libraries like re2, libgav1 up to 800K+ lines for the Fuchsia Zircon kernel. Given the criticality of many of these systems, such large-scale rewrites are undergoing rigorous automated and manual auditing, emulation testing, and review before rolling out to production.
