Long-Form Comes To Bridgy Fed

Up until now, Bridgy Fed has only supported the bridging of microblogging content. Even when we bridged articles from the web or from Article types in ActivityPub, ATProtocol-based microblogs would only receive a link to the article rather than the content of the long-form post. One of the main reasons

The AI Iceberg: Understanding ChatGPT

Analogies are useful for understanding complex ideas, and there are plenty of complexities for educators trying to wrap their heads around ChatGPT. In this post, I’ll try to explain some of the features of the chatbot and the model it’s built on top of. I'm deliberately avoiding any kind of analogy that represents the AI as magical, mythical, human, or godlike - we've seen enough of them. I’m not claiming that this analogy is watertight or that there is no better way to conceptualise […]

[en] Big Tech "kill zones": football transfer market #analogy

"... causal evidence that acquisitions by six major US #technology companies [#GAFAM] and IBM create what we call a “kill zone” in startup industries. Just as Manchester United’s acquisition of Rooney signalled to other clubs that competing for top #talent would be futile, #tech giants’ acquisitions appear to #discourage new #market entrants and reduce venture capital #investment ..."

"... debates about digital sovereignty, the future of the European #startup ecosystem, and whether current #antitrust tools are adequate for the #digital age."

"... the economy becomes less #innovative because ... most promising businesses do not grow enough to challenge market incumbents."

OII | When big tech plays like Man United: How ‘kill zones’ threaten Europe’s future

Dr Fabian Braesemann examines how tech giants’ acquisition strategies mirror those of elite football clubs buying up young talent, and why this matters for Europe’s digital sovereignty.

🌭 Analogy for yolo quotes about why nobody needs to read or understand AI-generated code anymore.

– Eating corndogs at the state fair. Honestly, you know it is bad for you.

– But if you do not think too much, you can convince yourself that maybe *this* unknown brand of mixed meat is actually healthy.

– As long as you never thoroughly check, you need not validate any correct (or incorrect) assumptions.

🤷 Ignorance is bliss. And lately, I have been encountering a *lot* more willfully blissful people. Even folks who should probably know better.

Personally, I tend to think of AI as info during the Cold War.

Here it is. When you're facing something that you don't think that you've ever faced before, the easiest way to understand it is to find an #analogy. Or a #fractal.

One of my favorite mathematical tricks — it almost seems too tricky to be true — is the Propositions As Types Analogy. And I see hints the 2‑part analogy can be extended to a 3‑part analogy, as follows.

Proof Hint ∶ Proof ∶ Proposition

Untyped Term ∶ Typed Term ∶ Type

or

Proof Hint ∶ Untyped Term

Proof ∶ Typed Term

Proposition ∶ Type

Survey of Precursors Of Category Theory • 6
https://inquiryintoinquiry.com/2025/05/05/survey-of-precursors-of-category-theory-6/

A few years ago I began a sketch on the “Precursors of Category Theory”, tracing the continuities of the category concept from Aristotle, to Kant and Peirce, through Hilbert and Ackermann, to contemporary mathematical practice. A Survey of resources on the topic is given below, still very rough and incomplete, but perhaps a few will find it of use.
