Embedded programmer. Veterinarian. Impatient idealist.
Simon TathamA thought I keep coming back to:
If programming is a large part of your life (professionally or not), then it's remarkably difficult to completely waste your time while programming.
It often _feels_ like it, whenever you didn't solve the immediate problem. But skill is your most important resource, and every line you write trains and builds skill.
Even code you shouldn't have written, or that reviewers hate, or that doesn't work.
Sometimes it's _only_ practice – but that's still not nothing!

TattieYou can be told you are non-binary,
discover yourself to be non-binary,
be assumed to be non-binary,
want to be non-binary,
resent being non-binary,
decide to be non-binary,
grow into a non-binary person.
And none of these are mutually exclusive.
April Kingone thing i love about being in a long tech career is seeing how far things have come over the years.
when i started it was all “ugh clippy is so obnoxious” and decades of progress have gotten us all the way to “ugh this ai assistant is so obnoxious.”

s0 Is Not A SysadminKinda surprised I’m not seeing more calls for people to get into HAM radio in an era of increasing natural disasters. It’s like the obvious thing communities need to organise themselves when the cellular infrastructure goes down for days or weeks…

Joseph CoxNew from 404 Media: someone put facial recognition on Meta's smart glasses to instantly dox strangers. You look at them, sends face to a facial recognition tool. LLM infers name, sends to people site. Gets phone number, address. I've seen it in action https://www.404media.co/someone-put-facial-recognition-tech-onto-metas-smart-glasses-to-instantly-dox-strangers/
Someone Put Facial Recognition Tech onto Meta's Smart Glasses to Instantly Dox Strangers
The technology, which marries Meta’s smart Ray Ban glasses with the facial recognition service Pimeyes and some other tools, lets someone automatically go from face, to name, to phone number, and home address.
