Den Kurznachrichtendienst X haben wir aus mehreren Gründen Mitte 2023 verlassen und sind zu #Mastodon gewechselt. Doch viele wissen noch nicht, dass es Alternativen gibt. Daher gilt es im Zuge der breiten Initiative Di.Day (#diday) dezentrale und unabhängige digitale Dienste und Anwendungen zu stärken.

Kommenden Sonntag finden in #München Veranstaltungen wie z.B. #Linux-Install-Parties statt. Alle Termine hier: https://termine.di.day/

Somebody send this clip to Microsoft and let them know how customer see and feel about their products 🤣

Imagine if the package registries and #OpenSource components that you use were no longer available.

Would you still be able to deliver a single line of code? Would your software even start, or would your business come to a standstill within minutes?

AI Hallucination Cases compiled and maintained by Damien Charlotin, a French lawyer and scholar. This database tracks legal decisions1 in cases where generative AI produced hallucinated content – typically fake citations, but also other types of AI-generated arguments. https://www.damiencharlotin.com/hallucinations/

This is really messed up. Who will respobile if innocent people get punished because of this?

Mastodon which is incredibly hot, supports RSS beautifully.

Just add .rss to any account to get the feed. Amazing!

https://mastodon.social/@davew.rss

Open that in your favorite feed reader. It’ll work.

Post a screenshot, say what the reader app is.

And pass this on to everyone who uses a feed reader.

Spread the word!

This is a huge deal for the open web.

Pluralistic: Bragging about replacing coders with AI is a sales-pitch (05 Aug 2025) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow

This conversation made me laugh

IT jobs lingo decoded:

• “We’re like a family” = no boundaries & call at midnight

• “Fast-paced” = chaos everywhere

• “Self-starter” = zero support for anything

• “Team player” = unpaid overtime & get ready to work on all holidays including weekends

• “Competitive salary” = below industry average

• “Nimble” = drop everything & work on my problem

• “Flexible work hours” = starting time is fixed but don’t think of leaving early

What else?
