2/ programming - am seeing lots of non programmers accessing the joy of building but agentic programming is so much fun for seasoned builders too! What a ride! Also loved the assessment of @moltbook.bsky.social (MoltBook) as art...

Oh Twitter, the wedge we use to widen those small gaps into multi hour productivity sinks... And we're not kidding anyone, bsky is no different.

For a while there we were alone, with GPT, Claude and Perplexity not available. Even though Gemini was chugging along, it felt a little like being home alone with the grownups out of town, no?

How have I only now found out that @iandunt.bsky.social's striking 13 has a podcust, and why is it read like the shipping news?

It's not the Artificial Intelligence that is to blame, it is (human) natural idiocy.

@dorianlynskey.bsky.social just heard you ask on OGWEN how is Reform ahead if Farage is less popular than both legacy party leaders. Well they might lead in the voting intention surveys but are far from having a majority. The difference between Nigel's popularity and Reform's isn't huge.

I was just listening to the @theresthistory.bsky.social series on Hitler's path to power and this is no spoiler or anything new - the parralels are chilling. And what made it even worse is that a versy similar thing is happening in Israel as we speak.

Now that I have mastered the details and structures for this, Iโ€™ll be glad to build and possibly host similar services for on-line repositories. [#DigitalHumanities] (3/3)

In infrastructure news: Just deployed a matching service for 48,124 Hebrew place names and their Latin and Arabic equivalents, as well as the 150,018 variants of these names. The service is at match.dh-dev.com/kima and is based on Kima, the Hebrew names gazetteer at [#DigitalHumanities] (1/3)

2/2 The service is obviously based on Kima, the Hebrew place name gazetteer @sinai-rusinek.bsky.social and I maintain at data.geo-kima.org, which just recieved a 50% increase in the amount of name variants. Enjoy and please let us know what you will be using the service for.
