this is the ultimate end point of capitalism, ai will completely atomize everyone and there will be zero shared experiences. there will be no culture, only pure consumption. this must be resisted

if your agents are going to commit crimes, you are legally responsible if you cannot figure out how to prevent your agents from doing crimes, you’re going to have to choose between releasing them and protecting yourself from criminal liability imo this would do more for “ai safety” than a sex cult

"Kennedy would never be able to do the trial in the US because of its significant ethical concerns, Offit added. “He’s taking advantage of a developing country … Is it because children in Africa are more expendable than children here?”" Yes. That is evident. That and the fact "Bobby" is an evil man.

Black text on white background 
"This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss.
 
The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians—including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them – all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes.
 
Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment.
 
To honor the dead, we must fight for a world in which every person can live with freedom, safety, and dignity."

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

Sort of insane fact about how broken US urban planning is—America now spends more building *just the lights for roads and highways* than on all subways & ground mass transit combined Spending on roadway *pavement* is 18x transit spending

Spectre is my favorite vulnerability class because it’s inherent to the way the system is built, and the only real way to fix it for good is to burn it all down. As an anarchist, I can appreciate that

Damn. That color is so cool... I agree, it must be sorcery, if it is lightfast. Oh, I did try to check for toxic compounds within it but its composition seems to be proprietary QwQ If you happen to get a sample... could you capture the light spectrum of its color? Maybe we can narrow it down :3

Félix Fischer @felix91gr.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
If the source of color were structural, it should be lightfast... But I only know how folks can pull that off with gold (a nanoparticle + a carrier molecule). I have no idea if gold is an exception, or if all noble-ish transition metals can be used in that way.

Félix Fischer @felix91gr.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
Holy SHIT that thing pops, omg! It is SO BRIGHT m.youtube.com/watch?v=zAVO... That makes me wonder if it's some form of structural color. Like how gold nanoparticles have a burgundy spectrum of color, where the exact shade depends on their size?

Anyway. My theory is that one of the reasons we have incidents like Crowdstrike's as often as we do is that there are no real consequences for playing with people's lives. Hence why I gravitate towards safety critical systems in software. I want my ethics and my employer's incentives to be aligned.

Such a catastrophe in civil engineering due to negligence (for example, of a badly designed bridge collapsing and taking hundrers of casualties), would result in the engineers responsible for approving such a bad design knowing the risks, facing years of jail. (At least here in Chile) 2/3

Félix Fischer @felix91gr.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
I mean the one part I miss about "real engineering" is the lack of real accountability in most contexts. That massive systems outage Crowdstrike caused in July 19th 2024, for example, (1) affected 8.5 million systems, (2) killed many people in e.g. hospitals and (3) was due to sheer negligence. 1/3

The mere word is cursed. "Content" implies that its substance and identity don't matter; that it's just the amount of "stuff to consume" that matters. I always try to softly push back against that term when folks close to me use it to describe the things they make. For it's not the right goal.

if you won’t listen to me, maybe you’ll listen to @lillywachowski.bsky.social because if you actually care about trans people you gotta drop Harry Potter
There is a big "Harry Potter" series coming out on HBO soon and there are many people opposed to it because of J.K.
Rowling's transphobia.
She is funding trans genocide. J.K. Rowling funds trans genocide, full stop. So, if you support "Harry Potter," you're supporting trans genocide. The money that goes into you enjoying these products, a portion of that money goes to J.K. Rowling and that money goes into her funding anti-trans legislation all over the world. In the same way that if you are against Elon Musk, you boycott or don't buy Tesla; and if you're against global warming/climate change, you try not to buy as much gas, you try to mitigate your use of these products. It's simple math. So, your enjoyment of these shows, and continued support of these shows, is supporting my eradication.

Ah, I see! It doesn't work as an "always" type. When used as a type, it works as a mirror that just takes whatever value the type inference process presents to it. And without imposing constraints to the inference itself.

Félix Fischer @felix91gr.bsky.social · 08/09/2026
Speaking of never: if the never type can be coerced into any other type, there must be a type at the other end of the universe, into which any type can be coerced, right? Did we already have that as _? Was _ the always type all along?

humans have largely accepted that we are okay outsourcing computation, for example a "computer" used to be a job title, but we're mostly fine automating this now, because it's very rote work with near 0 agency and really only one right answer for any given computation (cont.)

there's a pretty simple connection here 1. humans become good at what they practice doing 2. outsourcing to an AI or even other people, means you have stopped doing the thing 3. if you stop doing the thing, you will stop improving, and, long term, get worse at it (cont.)
