Code is art but it is art in the same way that the written word is art, or GUI design is art, which is that to most people it is part of the wallpaper of the universe, not conscious of the fact that someone still has to design their wallpapers

Wendy Carlos should be on the 20 dollar bill. There should be a 50-foot-tall, solid-gold statue of her in Pawtucket. You should be able to buy all her albums in any format you want and a line of custom branded synths. She should be a household name along with Bob Moog.

This is fucking terrifying
Separate research supports the concern. Anat Perry, a Helen Putnam Fellow at Harvard’s Radcliffe Institute and associate professor of psychology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, co-authored a paper in Science examining how sycophantic AI responses erode users’ ability to calibrate their own judgment. The paper found that when AI systems consistently affirm a user’s position, the user’s capacity for independent evaluation degrades over time.

Joanna Stern, NBC’s chief technology analyst and author of “I Am Not a Robot: My Year Using AI to Do (Almost) Everything,” has documented the creep of AI dependency in daily life. Her reporting has shown how users begin with low-stakes queries, such as what to cook for dinner or what to wear, and gradually escalate to consequential decisions about careers, finances, and relationships. The trajectory from convenience to reliance is difficult to reverse once established.

i don't think that the friendslop games themselves are a reaction in terms of juice, but their popularity seems to me to be in part driven by their rough edges and that their juice is more specialized. like a correlation between a desire for grass-touching & global destimulation and friendslopping

are there conversations happening about how big games these days are getting to be too juicy for the brain to handle and that friendslop is in large part a rejection of the corpo gamejuice machine

embracing beerware mindset is the only way to make computers cool again
Engling, for one, wasn't in it for the money. He distributed Opentracker as "beerware," an open-source license guided by the notion that anyone who found it useful should buy him a beer, as he half-jokingly explained in a 2007 talk. "I thought: A lot of people are using BitTorrent, so…."Amid that resurgence, he still sometimes tinkers with Opentracker's code, reenergized by new technical challenges. And just last month, a Spanish anime fan took him out for beers in Berlin to thank him for his contribution to BitTorrent's global infrastructure.

Real good bit about the slippery slope of genAI use. A battle we're already fighting, especially against the C-suite.
Text clip from the Harvard Gazette article: 

He continued, “Whatever your chosen profession is, please don’t let AI rob you of the fun part of it. Your generation’s upcoming battle won’t be humans against AI; that’s at least two months away. … It’s going to be people with substance versus people with shallow knowledge. It’s going to be mastery versus faking it. It’s going to be people with good taste versus tacky. I trust you will put in the work necessary to be on the right side of those battles.”

new: last week, the cook county board signed off on sheriff tom dart's request to nearly double the size of his flock license plate reader network. it came despite revelations the agency worked with the controversial company for years without an agreement and as other cities are ditching the tech.

The county board approved Sheriff Tom Dart’s $1 million request, even as his office used the technology for years without an active contract.
