I hope people look at this and realize that licenses will not protect them; they will only ever protect capital in the long run aus.social/@KathyReid/11241389

The Stack Overflow / OpenAI news does not alarm me too much. There is *lots* of bad #accessibility information there. I did a talk on it.

The Stack Overflow rugpull is another data point in my head which discourages me from contributing *any* content to a hoard owned by a corporation.
I’m hoping that ActivityPub will one day enable SO-style knowledge bases in which the individual nuggets of content are owned by independent servers and cannot be purchased by anyone.

Allow me to re-stack two of the AP’s graphs. #Uvalde
“… an investigator hired by Uvalde officials found that the city’s officers did not deserve punishment, and in some cases, praised their actions …”
“… prompting shouts of “cowards” from the audience and causing several family members of the victims to angrily walk out of the meeting.”

What do you mean, ancient computers with no stack? My first BASIC interpreter didn't have a stack, and it felt really modern! Well, back then. So I passed arrays around and an index. Worked "fine" even for recursion.
But then I wanted to port my recursive generate-a-christmas-tree algorithm to my little cousin's BASIC interpreter, as a Christmas present, and it wouldn't let me pass the array to the subroutine either. That's when things got a bit difficult ...<…

Remember that you can "no hire" companies too.
You want me to train three big models and hand you running code for your take home test when I've trained them, deployed them at scale, rev'd them, and there's a public Stack Overflow blog post co-authored by me explaining the whole thing?
That's a no hire from me.

Going to Denver for Small Press fest next weekend, so printed a bunch of copies of the first non-library zine I've made in forever. Let me know if you want a copy!

A stack of quarter-sized zines called "Games on My Shelf (I Have Not Played Yet)" Issue #001. There is an image of an old board game with a spiral layout in the centre of the page.

Anyone need the PCB for a 16KB Apple II/II (not IIe) Language card? I had PCBway make me some but the smallest quantity is 5. So, I'll likely have 4 left over.
