In general, it's very plain that there are *both* (1) people who expect that the appropriate amount of AI code assistant use by the people who write their software is "literally none", and (2) software engineers who do not want to use AI code assistants in writing their code, but can no longer find jobs willing to employ them to do so. The trick we need to solve is to somehow connect (1) to (2). (Assuming it is still possible for humans to fund humans to do labor. That might not be true anymore)

@shad0wdragon i think the fact that there are projects which are "open source", but which have hard incorporated the idea of "people do not build our project from source" into their user model, is a sign of a bad problem

What I was thinking was maybe perhaps having a fork of either WriteFreely, or Ghost, so that you get the federation, etc.

but also use the same open source OTW Code software, that both Ao3, and SqWA, use, for the benefits/convenience?

And perhaps, instead of using servers/instances, it instead have each and every profile as it’s own separate mini website, complete with dashboard, reading history, fics, etc.?

I.e. think something similar to how Tumblr handles profiles, but decentralized.

And each profile would interconnected with each other (unless they defederate).

Basically, each of the profiles would be their own instance.

Or something.

IDK.

Apologies if this was written weirdly, I am currently at work.

@gnomon @grimalkina I'll send you one if you DM your address to me.

okay it looks like my at-home server is constantly sending around 40Mbps to my linode over tailscale, and I'm having trouble figuring out where the traffic is coming from. iptraf and iftop tell me that the data transfer is happening but can't tell me which processes are involved.

Anyone have any ideas?

@gbargoud I dunno but mine has one of 'em now! (The other one is still... passable. Not good! But passable 😁 )

Do you think there's a British Limp Bizkit tribute act called Limp Hobnob?

(As the prices of rent and food go up, and the "% of wealth" numbers start to look stranger [1% of the population owns 50% of the wealth, that sort of thing], if trends continue unbounded eventually you hit a point where the *only* way to get money to live is to do something that makes an already-wealthy person happy. More and more industries change from making products to sell, over to some sort of "storytime" where a billionaire is delighted by the way you dance and gives you "investment".)

I've got two reports that librewolf severely degrades the audio, which might be due to their anti-fingerprinting measures interfering with the clock that drives the audio synthesis. If that's actually what is going on, I'm going to have to work out a way to detect when these measures are in place so I can have it advise the player what the problem is. Which is a really funny problem to have, identifying a browser that's trying not to be identified.

Took me awhile to get to this because I have been busy with other things but *dark souls font* rabbets and dados cut! The dry fit looks good. It was really hard to cut everything accurately because I'm pushing the limits of what my table saw can handle with how long all the boards are but everything looks close enough that it should square up decently once it's glued and clamped. The assembly will have to be done in the room I'm putting this in as it will be way too big to move after.

Old woman: A stick! A stick! You see a varvulf, you throw the stick and it chases! Don't even need to throw! Just do littttle.... PUMP fake!

Me: ... okay
