Just got these messages from @seengoals@mastodon.social, one of the members of Gaza Verified, basically accusing me of running a fundraiser for Gaza and keeping the proceeds (I have no fundraiser on any fundraising site anywhere) and extorting me to share his fundraiser or he’ll apparently go public with it.
So here’s what’s going to happening instead: Nabil has been removed Gaza Verified (

AVFTCN 040 – Returning From A Hiatus, and Plans for 2026
I'm back. After a self-imposed hiatus for most of 2025, I'm returning to something I've been deeply missing... writing and speaking. If you've been following me for any length of time, you know that not writing or speaking is, for me, a kind of pressure that builds and builds until I am ready to explode. 🤯 So what happened? The short version: my role at the…

I recall that a long time ago, someone told me I'm acting like a cat. Curious it didn't get me thinking; though I guess I didn't really know any cats back then.

Sonnet 138 - CXXXVIII
When my love swears that she is made of truth,
I do believe her though I know she lies,
That she might think me some untutored youth,
Unlearned in the world's false subtleties.
Thus vainly thinking that she thinks me young,
Although she knows my days are past the best,
Simply I credit her false-speaking tongue:
On both sides thus is simple truth suppressed:
But wherefore says she not she is unjust?
And wher…

Still, per the OP’s point, we should learn from what it is about vibe coding that really appeals to people.
The OP makes the case that we should find better abstractions and better idioms to fight boilerplate. Yes. And that we should look to things like Hypercard that reward inexperienced experimentation and exploration. Very very yes.
The latter part of my thread argues that we should •also• search for better solutions to the “Don’t make me decide! Just do something typical!” problem. I don’t know what that looks like, but we should take that problem more seriously.

tl;dr—
Moods are always tangled with assessments (opinions/interpretations). When you want to shift (or nurture) a mood, you can examine the assessments associated with it… See if they’re grounded or not… See if their actions you can take about them or not.
In my experience that simple process reliably moves moods.

I still remember the abject horror I felt when some "ConservaMom" on twotter back in the day 'pointed out' to those who wanted free and universal health care that a Ferrari would no more have value if everyone had one.
I don't know what exactly I replied, but it got me an instant block and I'd be ashamed of myself if it hadn't.
It really is a brain worm. But is there any hope for the affected? I think even in my most demented free-market-believer day…

Very nice article. You might like the popularization of how a LLM works, if you don't know already.
I personally appreciate the last third of it, about the meaning for coding tools, and about how single-purpose models could theoretically be so much more useful. (And - my addition - they could do so while being ethical and efficient too.)

My mom gave me this over the weekend and said that she doesn't know if the coins are worth anything but I should bring them home anyways. They are from a trip to #Ireland in 1984 or 1985. I am pretty sure that the bank that this deposit envelope is from hasn't existed since the nineties.
My grandpa sure was OCD. He wrote the conversion between Irish pounds and dollars on the envelope.

Today, Wikipedia turns 25 years old. It's never been more important — or under more attack from authoritarians. Here's what to know about how we got here, and what we can do to push for its future and support them as they start to demand fair support from the AI companies that are profiting off of the community. There's no better example than Wikipedia of the web we make together.

Dear people in #Gaza
I know your situation is very bad, but there are many thousands of you.
I can afford to make only three gifts each week, and those will inevitably mostly go to people I already know. So no, I almost certainly cannot support you by sending you money.
If you send me private appeals, I can't share them. I am now receiving so many private appeals that I cannot…

(This is not some kind of false modesty. Most of what you’re hearing from me here is just me passing along information from community channels. My personal contribution has mostly been helping communication, helping people with tech issues, doing some volunteering, keeping watch, protesting, doing neighborhood support work — that kind of stuff. I don’t want to downplay the importance of any of that. It matters a •lot• that there are so many people doing all of those things! It matters that I’m one of them! Just…you know, I’m one among many, a small player who somehow ended up holding one of the mics on Mastodon, and that’s it. The courage you see is the courage of many.)

As the rain fell in torrents, except at occasional intervals when it was checked by a violent gust of wind that swept up the streets, Stark checked his Thieves Guild tag (for it is in Ankh-Morkpork that our story lies) and glanced along the street where a magically illuminated sign flickered futilely against the darkness, causing him to comment to his companion, "You know, Dormy, I think this is going to be our night!"

I Verified My LinkedIn Identity. Here's What I Actually Handed Over: 'I handed a US company my passport, my face, and the mathematical geometry of my skull.

It’s better to live with heartache than to not know what it is to love. I never expected to be in a long-distance relationship, and although days like today are painful, it’s worth it.

Let me just start with Kharg Island.
We can put troops on there. We can air mobile them in. We could land them by boat.
I guess the comment I have about Kharg is, I’m not sure what the significance is of putting troops there.
It’s only about 20 miles off the coast of Iran. So you’re definitely under the threat of their weapon systems.
You’d be very, very vulnerable there.
And I don’t know that it would give us any particular tactical advantage that we don’t…

Erich von Däniken died today at the age of 90.

More than the ancient alien hypothesis, his books took me to many fascinating corners of the world, be it in the Americas, in India, Sub-Saharan Africa, or the English countryside. 1/3

The last couple of days have been relatively quiet in Minneapolis. ICE seems to have been much less active in the city, though everyone (including me) is sort of afraid to talk about that too much lest we jinx it.
They seem to have been more active in the suburbs, and maybe that’s all it is: a geographic shift.
Maybe the cold is keeping them inside. (A bunch of them are from places like TX and VA, and I’m sure they don’t know how to dress.)
