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 ā€œusersā€ – a term Silicon Valley has borrowed from drug dealers to describe the people they addict to their services and exploit.

I'm very excited to announce that I'm going to speaking at the #OpenUK State of Open Con 2024 conference in February šŸ™Œ

There's an incredible line-up and I'm very proud to be one of the talks chosen - from the submissions to the Open Source Software and Open Source tracks that I was helping review, there was some incredible submissions and speakers, so it's very cool to have made it to the line-up!

I'll be speaking about dependency-management-data, but for those that have seen me speak about it before, there's a tonne of new stuff since my last talks, and I've got some new stuff that'll be dropping into the project + the talk before the talk in February šŸ‘€

Extra special ā¤ļø to my fellow high functioners. There’s nothing easy about grinding to a halt, but there’s also a special kind of hell for people who continue to function and seem normal. It feels like drowning in plain sight. And on that note, the phrase ā€œit’s OK not to be OKā€ can pop itself right in the sea as far as I’m concerned. Tolerance of poor mental health is bare minimum. Being not OK isn’t OK. People don’t need ā€œpermissionā€ to be in that place, they need to be helped out of it.

TW: Suicide 2 nights ago I was in the worst place I’ve been mentally for years. I didn’t want to be alive anymore and I didn’t plan to act on it but I know it’s a short step from there. I sent a mayday text to 3 of my closest people and within 20 mins had someone with me. After a big chat, and 2 days of proper sleep, eating well, seeing friends and healthy distraction, I’m feeling much calmer and I can see the woods from the trees. Cont…

Every single person I know is currently at Grade A, Defcon-1, Ultra Premium Level exhaustion right now. So if you're scanning social media and this applies to you, let this be your motivational speech. DON'T do thing. DON'T go get it girl. STAY in bed. ORDER in. EAT some soup. TAKE a nap. REST is not failure. REST does not make you weak. REST is not laziness. REST is self care. REST.
