The new #github based on #react is an abject failure to improve the user experience. On every count it is objectively worse than previous iterations. Page load time is poor, interactivity is gated seemingly on very large JS loads. Initial page layout is broken on mobile and randomly resizes the width of the viewport after loading. The number of micro-annoyances seem to be adding up daily. This is like an object lesson in what not to do to your successful webapp.

If you're looking for an answer, I seem to remember initial test screenings finding him far too quiet to make out, so they did some re-recordings + made him louder but then it sounds a bit off 🤷🏽‍♂️

Stop defending companies as if they're people in 2024. I'm begging you please. Just because the government treats them with personhood doesn't mean you have to. Legality of a concept does not equate to its morality. Edit: I was not asking for peoples' opinion on corporate personhood. This was some of y'all first interaction with me so imma add a disclaimer (and reminder to read): "legality of a concept does not equate to its morality". Meaning even with laws of personhood, people aren't considered HUMANS. Closest to a measurable object by which the law is prejudiously applied to. I swear, the first feature I'm making for my site when I add AP support is disabling replies.

I had a thing yesterday where a mutual made a joke that was likely supposed to be lewd. Someone replied with a follow up joke. I had another joke to that reply and I was typing it up and then I was like “wait, just because this person is telling a sexual joke does not actually mean they want one in response. Being mutuals does not mean I have carte blanche. Don’t be a weirdo” Thought it might be useful to read. Just because someone does something doesn’t mean you can also do it. And being mutuals doesn’t mean there aren’t boundaries. And at the end of the day, is the joke you’re thinking of saying even that funny? Probably not.

Today is John Mastodon Day: On this day one year ago, a journalist misunderstood some facts and created the person of “John Mastodon” out of them (https://web.archive.org/web/20221216232836/https://www.mediaite.com/opinion/hypocrisy-and-fear-all-the-way-down-at-twitter). That day, the Fediverse got a new meme, a patron saint and a running gag at the same time. Let us all celebrate it! #JohnMastodonDay #JohnMastodon #Fediverse

tech is dominated by cis white dudes, and tech blogs more so. in more specialized domains (like accessibility), it's even worse. when writing my last blog post, 90% of the resources i linked to were written by white dudes. if you're part of a group that's underrepresented in tech, i would love to see your blog. if you don't have one, consider starting one (i can help!)

OpenAI suspends ByteDance’s account after it used GPT to train its own AI model: Isn't it hypocritical to use the copyrighted work of others without permission but deny others the same opportunity? OpenAI scraped the entire Internet but is now acting holier than thou. https://www.theverge.com/2023/12/15/24003542/openai-suspends-bytedances-account-after-it-used-gpt-to-train-its-own-ai-model OpenAI can train on various data types such as text, images, books & videos without permission, but competitors can not access it once it's in their system. So, yes, it is a problematic version of copyright

So fittingly described by @aral@mastodon.ar.al what's wrong with the Term of User: The Big Web has “users” – a term Silicon Valley has borrowed from drug dealers to describe the people they addict to their services and exploit.
