antimemetics··on Brazil's X ban is sending lots of people to Bluesky
Rather someone on Twitter shared some text - these aren’t the original court orders - they are at best a paraphrase by someone with a certain agenda.
antimemetics··on Why A.I. Isn't Going to Make Art
For me it’s solely the former even if the marketing/press around it hypes up the latter
antimemetics··on Why A.I. Isn't Going to Make Art
„AI“ (a stupid term to begin with) is just a tool like any other - you can use it to make art.

Of course it’s not going to be creative on its own - it obviously is not intelligent.

But for me comfyui is an incredibly cool tool to be creative.

Such a boring topic after all - all the noise it attracts won’t amount to much once people understand this technology

antimemetics··on Bypassing airport security via SQL injection
Boarding pass checks etc are independent of the security checks. At least security never checked my boarding pass or ID, it was usually a step before and after security checks.
antimemetics··on Elasticsearch is open source, again
sunk cost. at least that’s what elastic seems to be betting on.
antimemetics··on Why is the Oral-B iOS app almost 300 MB? And why is Colgate's app even bigger..?
Weird, I learned this in three places, at kindergarten, again in school, and at home

Yes they make a 3d map of your mouth. It’s nonsensical but here we are
antimemetics··on Eating the Birds of America: Audubon's Culinary Reviews of America's Birds
The beak is the best part!
antimemetics··on Australian employees now have the right to ignore work emails, calls after hours
Surely you are joking
antimemetics··on Australian employees now have the right to ignore work emails, calls after hours
> it is mostly self impose

This is the key. Of course companies don’t object to you working extra hours. You shouldn’t do it - it sets a bad precedent for those who you manage.

Corporations are a form of “slow” AI - this is literally a war against the machines
antimemetics··on Arrest of Pavel Durov, Telegram CEO, charges of terrorism, fraud, child porn
It doesn’t extend to police questioning, i also pointed out it’s a different thing when you are in a court. For the police an innocent bystander can turn into a suspect real fast.
antimemetics··on Show HN: SplitScreen – Create dual-video content for TikTok, YouTube, Reels
What is an easy way to do this manually? I can’t think of any, but then again u don’t use TikTok etc
antimemetics··on Arrest of Pavel Durov, Telegram CEO, charges of terrorism, fraud, child porn
I think in most modern democracies you aren’t legally required to tell the police anything. Courts are a different case though.
antimemetics··on I automatically applied 1000 jobs in 24h and got 50 interviews (using AI BOT)
I rather waste HR drones time than waste my own life taking the job race serious.

Honestly this is just what companies have been asking for with their shitty hiring practices.

antimemetics··on Cautionary tale on using Chase bank for indie business
I would just shrug and chuck it in the trash tbh. Probably not the first or second time but if it happens often and they don’t listen then definitely
antimemetics··on The Katsuification of Britain
Always love to shock US-Americans with the fact that we eat raw pork in Germany (google mettigel)
antimemetics··on What If Data Is a Bad Idea?
Don’t worry you didn’t make a bad choice, it’s disillusionment all the way down in this industry
antimemetics··on What If Data Is a Bad Idea?
Dada scientist
antimemetics··on Sonos CEO says the old app can't be rereleased
I have a Phillips Hue and they now want to force me to create an account - for security reasons.

I don’t know if this sounds as insane to you as it does to me - but a device that does nothing else but emit coloured light needs a frickin account for SECURITY reasons?

Of course I know the real reason is to extract all kinds of data from me but man if this ain’t done Brave New World shit I don’t know.

antimemetics··on An admittedly wandering defense of the SSO tax
Do you mean that the support burden is not a valid reason to charge for SSO? In my experience support us the most tedious, annoying, and time-costly part of building a SaaS so I would definitely always charge extra for anything that requires more support
antimemetics··on GitHub was down
> Declare an incident first, investigate later.

If that would be the best way to deal with it- why is literally no one doing it this way and what does that tell you?
