Just read this interesting article about how the words for "God willing" are super similar in Portuguese and Arabic – two completely different language families! medium.com/@senaidemirci/oxal%C3%A1… #portugal #arabic #language #linguistics #languagelearning

Everybody has to coordinate with Starlink because SPACEX CONTROLS ORBIT. That's against the Outer Space Treaty. Your engineering challenge, SpaceX, is to provide your services with fewer satellites. Not yell at everyone else for having satellites too […]

I'm a little miffed someone read something else into a previous post of mine so let me clear that up: gcc is an outstanding project and compiler set. We owe so much to them.

4 hours a day consistently towards your goal, is more than enough to reach where you want to be. And no, that isn't a magic number, it's the ideal one. Maybe 1 hour everyday might get you there too.

lol didn't see this in time for today's Pivot - Meta Muse uploads your past and present Apple Messages to Facebook's cloud, even if you told it not to appleinsider.com/articles/26/09/28/…

Meta Muse AI reportedly read Mac Messages without consent
In a completely unsurprising turn of events, Meta's Muse AI is stealing Apple Messages, past and present, and uploading the contents to its cloud, even if explicitly told not to.

This is unacceptable. The Google Play app review process now regularly takes longer than a week. I understand that the pipeline is clogged with AI slop, but #Google needs to prioritize #Android apps that have been around for 12+ years and push updates only once a month.
A screenshot of the Google Play Console showing that #Conversations_im has been submitted on September 9, a week ago at the time of posting, and is still pending review.

@sundogplanets AI is terrible for citations. Citations are a huge part of my job (I edit at a journal). All of us journal people are trying to send up the alarm about how much AI screws up citations, and no one is listening. If you ask AI to format your citations it will mess up all your DOIs […]

Open Source hot take: A software project is allowed to be *done*. Not everything needs to add features or rewrite things. You can just be happy with functionality and focus on just maintainance. "Maintenance mode" is not always bad but can just show a mature product.
