After five years, @rek and I recorded a new video for Hundred Rabbits in which we talk about some of the changes we've made to Pino since our return from Japan, based on the lessons we learned sailing the Pacific Ocean.

De kalender is geschreven door taalkundigen met specialisaties in de verschillende taalfamilies in Afrika.
Door het jaar heen zetten ze zo nu en dan een taalfamilie of een schrift in de schijnwerpers.
Op de achterkant van een dag vind je onder de uitleg vaak een qr-code voor meer info.

@selea A wide-angle shot of a live musical performance featuring a crowd in the foreground and performers on a stage. In the foreground, the backs and raised hands of a crowd of people are visible, including one person wearing a white baseball cap. On the stage, one performer stands near a microphone, and another person plays an electric guitar on the right. The atmosphere is filled with thick fog and bright, colorful stage lights in shades of blue, green, and purple that create visible beams. Metal stage trusses and lighting equipment are visible on the left side of the image.

@clacke an integral part of the AI project is to blur the difference between humans and machines, and not just by elevating the machines but by degrading the humans

Linux Foundation: "Open Source devs faster with AI"
Source: self-reported. 😕
https://www.linuxfoundation.org/research/oss-development-gen-ai-era-2026
About self-reporting:
- devs think that they are much faster with AI. See the first attached image that plots the with-ai vs without-ai estimates of the data from metr: https://github.com/METR/Measuring-Late-2025-AI-on-OSS-Devs
- But they are not. See the second attached image, screenshotted from the article by metr: https://metr.org/blog/2026-02-24-uplift-update/#other-means-of-measuring-productivity
Self-reported AI productivity numbers are usually badly wrong.

#Mastodon is getting a new look in our upcoming 5.0 release.
We wrote a bit more about our design process and how we approach community input. If you’re on mastodon.social you will see the new design tomorrow, on Tuesday. We rely on your feedback!
@Mastodon Why the hell would you put the new post UI box at the bottom of the screen on MOTHERQUACKING DESKTOP LAYOUT?

@graf I'll call sometime, its been too long
@2003MugishaPhocit There was a Christian fundamentalist comic writer named Jack Chick who drew "Chick Tracts" that circulated quite a bit in the 1960s and 70s. They were mostly about Satan laying traps for children, who'd end up in hell. Halloween was one of his favourite targets.

I need to remember to search up my group Halloween costume ideas since I have so many but never remember them in time.
