"But humans also make bad PRs" and this is obviously true. But if I spend hours/days helping a human get a PR over the finish line I've taught that person how to do future PRs better. Maybe they never come back, but at a minimum I've taught another human something useful.
If I'm talking to an AI agent, there's a 100% chance that next session every nanosecond I put in reviewing the PR is wasted. The next PR even by the same "author", will have the same issue.
It's not sustainable.

#ClimateDiary “Above is a fictional weather forecast for August 18, 2050, broadcast by French television in 2014, intended to warn against the disastrous consequences of global warming.
Below is the weather forecast for June 22, 2026.”
(By @jakubwiech on unmentionable)
This brings out super starkly how #ClimateChange has accelerated so much more quickly than we thought even just 12 years ago.
Alright Burnham, let’s try freedom to protest a genocide, no deadly cuts to disability services, leaving trans people the fuck alone, renewable energy, taxing the rich, safe third spaces for kids, and Scottish independence.
Oh and last but not least, going after the fascist networks organising hate mobs. You know, actual terrorism instead of the Met wrestling old age pensioners to the ground for protesting the fact that one can’t even express support for Palestine Action without getting in seriously expensive legal trouble.
Juridisch kan het misschien
maar in de praktijk is het te omzeilen leg je de rode loper uit voor massasurveillance https://www.nu.nl/tech/6399908/minimumleeftijd-voor-sociale-media-in-nederland-kan-maar-uitvoering-blijkt-lastig.html
Reguleer liever Big Tech, zodat platforms minder schadelijk en verslavend worden, en vergeet de rol van ouders niet! https://youtube.com/watch?v=se5XApX6Z84

Folks need to recognize how much transphobia is driving the debate over the girl dad in the women’s washroom.
People have been so conditioned to hate and fear trans people that they now see bathrooms as a “sacred space” such that they will endanger kids to prove a point.
This is where hate and division lead.
A few years ago no one would have thought twice about a man bringing his two young daughters into the women’s washroom.
But years of trans hatred and fear mongering mean people believe only “women” can access that space.
People think those two young girls should have been taken into the men’s washroom despite the fact they would have been exposed to male nudity and possible aggression.
The girl dad did the right thing.
Anyone saying otherwise is pushing a narrative.
If a man wants to hurt us, he doesn’t need an excuse to enter our washroom.
He will just force his way in.
This particular incident proved that.
The girl dad asked permission. He checked with an employee. He had a reason to be there.
The straight male aggressor did not.
He forced his way in.
Traumatized the two young girls.
Caused a scene.
Abused local police services.
He was the predator, and he chose to access a “women’s only space”.
Trans people are not the enemy.
Girl dads are not the enemy.
It’s a false flag.
I’ve been the victim of sexual assault and I can honestly say I’ve never feared a trans person.
I’ve been in washrooms with trans women, drag queens and girl dads…I’ve never feared for my safety.
Stop allowing political rhetoric to cause division.
We can be better than this.
UK’s proposed under-16 social media ban may be politically bold but it misses the point
Our research at City St George's, University of London shows 2 in 3 students oppose a ban, calling for platform accountability instead: https://www.citystgeorges.ac.uk/news-and-events/news/2026/may/2-in-3-oppose-a-social-media-ban-for-under-16s-finds-student-opinion-poll

Right. A ftiend of mine is trying to find a junior developer role in an EU country for a 19yo trans woman with an EU passport who has to escape abusive parents. She's at the "Writes her own operating system" level, so not your average 19yo.
Anyone hiring? Links to job specs or adverts appreciated.
