If you had a thousand dollars that you had to give away to an organization or person that you don't personally know, what would it be and how would you decide that?
Would you give that money to one place/person, or ten different places/people?

Jordan Neely's murderer being acquitted even from negligent homicide (after manslaughter was dropped) is so deeply disgusting and absurdJordan Neely's murderer being acquitted even from negligent homicide (after manslaughter was dropped) is so deeply disgusting and absurd
It's anti-Black racism in plain sight, from end to end
The trial evidence was abundantly clear, over the top, and the White Man gets off scot free β but what really hits me in the gut is that this is just ONE very public trial with clear evidence. There are THOUSANDS of Black people murdered every year in what should be named (and punished) as hate crimes.
Meanwhile, thousands of patently innocent Black people are jailed every year, or criminalized for victimless or minor crimes that White people are rarely charged for.

In light of all the studies linking the "endless scrolling" mechanism as well as suggestion algorithms to actual health risks (literally brainrot) I'd love to see a fedi client that gets rid of it in favour of a design that merely shows you what you ha...@Natanox for users with than a handful of follows that look at the fediverse a healthy low number of times a week, wouldn't there always be more that you haven't seen than you can reasonably read in a healthy social media session?
Seems like algorithmically identifying a small number of likely relevant posts from a variety of people you follow would be the healthier approach. Chronological isn't more healthy, it's just a different algorithm showing a differently limited slice. Trying to see everything new is the addiction.

Serious question: Is anyone making a list of where it may be possible to purchase a *new* car that isn't just spyware on wheels?@briankrebs *CEOs, the only truly protected class

Imagine for a moment that you decided to dig deep into the question βwhat happens when a human presses a key on a keyboardβ@atax1a @hazelweakly I started from neurons firing and went into the electron interaction between the finger and the key before going into electric circuits, etc
Then they asked about encoding binary signals, and I was like, "hey so how is any of this relevant to the security role" and they said "oh no, this is just for fun, you already answered all the security questions"
Which was cute the first time it happened but by the third time I wanted to tell them that it would be more useful to learn about the job and the team. I didn't have the confidence to say it at that point in my career

Packing for Reinvent is the real preinventI'm still confused by why it's "Generative Al" instead of "Generative Als"
Surely there's multiple Als making this shit up behind the scenes, right?

Packing for Reinvent is the real preinventSo Reinvent ads are starting off with some hot Al bullshit
Usually I'd console the non tech folks confused by tech ads at large, but when Al is advertising I'm right there with them, Al is one confusing dude
(Or thousands of confusing dudes in a trenchcoat?)

With the understanding that I am *fully* aware of the many valid criticisms of the Fediverse in general (to the extent that such a thing exists) and Mastodon in particular, and many of the reasons that Bluesky is more popular...@noracodes βοΈ and maybe that's okay. Sometimes masking compromises is fine.
