@lina I think half the problem really is that a lot of the Internet has got addicted to being angry at the state of the world, so they're actively looking for things to be angry about so they can portray that righteous anger.
This interacts *extremely poorly* with the fact that (as you say) on Bluesky and *ESPECIALLY* on Mastodon the "discourse" is *extremely* receptive to anti-AI stuff so "I hate AI, share if you agree!" stuff gets boosted more. There is a very narrow band of "acceptable" opinions on here and if you post stuff that validates them you get attention. Given how difficult it is to get attention on Mastodon to begin with, it's a vicious circle.
Honestly I echo what the post you quoted said, and it's part of why I reactivated my Bluesky, because at least I get the impression that people on Bluesky care about *something else in the entire world* other than tech sucking and the world being doomed.
Also had some fun building my own minimal, super fast starting text editor: https://github.com/dsp/de/blob/main/README.md. It's still in the works and i am slowly adding features, but it's main goal is (a) graphical (b) fast starting (<100ms, currently 20ms) (c) vim bindings. Renders first frame in CPU and switches to GPU. Only what I care about, completely tailored to me.
Ohh so much fun. I just developed (or had claude develop) a quick kubernetes proxy that setups certificates in my yubikey and then uses them to proxy my production k8s cluster that is on the same tailnet. So now with tailnet + proxy + yuibkey i can easily control my cluster locally. Super fun to have my certs on my yubikeys. https://github.com/dsp/yubikey-kube-proxy
Happy to be recognized on OpenUKs 2026 honor list https://openuk.uk/honours/
It also has a very interesting take on the “Copyright” problem, at least from the artist perspective. Hint: it is good the way it is

People know I am quite pro-AI, and not bought into a lot of the typical criticism, but this one is worth a read https://pluralistic.net/2025/12/05/pop-that-bubble/#u-washington and quite compelling

Just released cargo-nextest 0.9.113, with support for a long-requested feature that I realized I needed all of a sudden: debugger support! Run individual tests under gdb, lldb, WinDbg, or Visual Studio Code via CodeLLDB! This preserves all the environment setup done by nextest.
For more, including one-time VSCode setup instructions, see the documentation: https://nexte.st/docs/integrations/debuggers/
Nextest's releases are now also marked as immutable, meaning that they cannot be altered by anybody after the fact. This is cryptographically attested via GitHub and the Sigstore transparency log. See the "Release attestation (json)" at the bottom of the release page: https://github.com/nextest-rs/nextest/releases/tag/cargo-nextest-0.9.113
As always, update via cargo nextest self update! Hope this feature is as useful to you as it's been to me.
This is a good game. Try it! I was lucky enough to be in the playtest and it’s good fun.

Good news everybody! The SteamDeck/Linux stutter is now fixed in Death by Scrolling, plus some other awesome quality of life changes. We continue to make improvements mostly because I can't stop working on the game. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3773590/view/613179230182706248 #DeathByScrolling #indiedev #pixelart
