Pluralistic: The Reverse-Centaur’s Guide to Criticizing AI (05 Dec 2025) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow

My 5-year-old brought home a family project: “disguise a turkey” as anything he wanted. His top three choices? A Minecraft Creeper, Bad Bunny at the SuperBowl, or the #MoWillems Pigeon.
Can you guess which one won? 😄

I decided to start with something practical: a place to host my “living resume.” Now it’s a matter of keeping it growing through incremental steps—the only way forward when there’s so much to build and limited time.

Special thanks to @mxbck for providing an excellent #11ty-based foundation to build upon: https://mxb.dev/blog/eleventy-resume-builder/. Your work gave me the inspiration and motivation to keep learning about the web and building on it. I really needed that!
