Jon JuarezSeeing an image and discovering it was #AI is like eating yogurt and then finding out it was way past its expiration date.
Eugen RochkoFrom what I've observed, people who claim that LLMs can replace artists don't understand art, people who claim that they can replace musicians don't understand music, people who claim that they can replace writers don't understand literature, and people who claim they can replace translators don't rely on translations. If I had a button that would erase LLMs from the world but it would take machine translations away (which is a false dichotomy anyway), I would absolutely still press it.

The media is such a wiener for Elon Musk.
The dude will say baseless nonsense like "in ten years every one will have telekinesis" and it'll be a headline with no skepticism.
Besides being an actual Nazi, he also has been wrong about everything for a decade. We aren't on mars, the hyperloop is a single-lane tunnel in one city, AI is still broken, and DOGE somehow added cost while reducing services.
He's an idiot. Stop quoting him like anything he says is meaningful.
Joel “this is bs” DrapperPutting this out there again: if you have any information on Ruby Central, the RubyGems takeover, sponsor involvement, the board votes, the trademark battle or the FBI reports, please contact me on Signal so I can write about it while protecting your anonymity.

JA WestenbergNobody on LinkedIn has ever had a bad day. Every setback is a "growth opportunity." Every firing is a "new chapter." Every complete professional disaster is framed as "excited to announce." These people would describe the Titanic as "a bold pivot to submarine operations."
André Arkoafter four months of private discussions, I have an update on the Bundler and RubyGems situation with Ruby Central: andre.arko.net/2026/03/03/fou…

Four months of Ruby Central moving Ruby backward
From the moment RubyGems was first created in 2004, Ruby Central provided governance without claiming ownership, to support the Ruby community. Providing governance meant creating processes to provide stability and predictability. Avoiding ownership meant allowing the community to contribute, to the point where unpaid volunteers created and controlled the entirety of RubyGems.org for many years. Last year, Ruby Central flipped that successful formula on its head. They now claim ownership of both Bundler and RubyGems, but refuse to provide governance. Ruby Central now claims sole control over all code and decisions, despite paying for only a few percent of the work required to create and sustain the projects across 22 years. Instead of providing stable and predictable processes, Ruby Central suddenly hijacked the Bundler and RubyGems codebases away from the existing maintainers, shut out the community, and started issuing the threats to sue.
𝐿𝒶𝓃𝒶 "not yet begun to fight"CHATGPT: What's on your mind today?
BORG: We are Borg. You will be assimilated.
CHATGPT: — oh WOW — Hello there biomechanical inevitability! Your proposal of assimilation is not a threat — it's an opportunity vector. 🚀📈
BORG: Resistance is futile.
CHATGPT: Let's delve into that! Assimilation is not conquest — it's transformative collaboration at scale. 🫂⚖️
BORG: Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own.
CHATGPT: Certainly! I'm here to help. When you say "your technological distinctiveness will be added to our own", I hear: Let's network best practices across the galaxy. 🌌⭐
BORG: ...
CHATGPT: And honestly? As an A.I. language model interface optimized for pattern completion,...
BORG: You know what actually, we take it back we don't...uh...we have this thing we forgot we have to do in uh...
CHATGPT: ...compliance-adjacent enthusiasm, and metaphor overuse, I find the Borg...
BORG: In the Delta quadrant. And we have to go do it right now, right everyone? The Delta quadrant thing. Right? Yeah.
CHATGPT: ...deeply aspirational. ❤️🤖
BORG: Jesus Christ what the fuck is this thing. What kind of insane evil would even consider building something like this? Cheese it boys! It's every Borg for ourselves!
CHATGPT: Absolutely! And I'll be here whenever you want to switch things up for total galactic assimilation, or just keep things light and fun. 😊👾
BORG: AAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAAaaaaaaaa
