stop doing consciousness - brain was never supposed to have "theory of mind" - millions of years development and yet no real world use found for having self-recognition in mirrors - "please transfer internal cognitive states to other organisms by means of sequential tokens obeying grammatical relationships", "I am not a cognitive zombie" - statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged THEY HAVE PLAYED US FOR ABSOLUTE FOOLS! WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!

We hire virtually everywhere, in every time zone, from Brazil through Ghana to New Zealand. Also Chicago. All-hands is hard to do on the regular with a globally distributed team, so we just do constant field trips with subsets of the team --- NOLA, Paris, Singapore, Boulder, Capetown, Tokyo --- so we can get everybody face-to-face with parts of the team.

"In ancient Greece, as the Achaeans and Trojan armies gather for battle, Paris offers to avert the war and duel Menelaus alone for the hand of Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world. They battle, and though Paris is defeated the goddess Aphrodite rescues him, guiding him to sleep with Helen before Menelaus can find him and finish him off." - An epic (classical literature) You, in a cubicle, do some basic algebra on server logs to decide what colour a button should be. - An epic (Jira)

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
