I’m in SLC wrapping up my time in the US/with the in-laws. Canada soon hopefully
Yes? (I’m there right now 🤣)
Spent many (many!) hours pulling legal explanations and apologies from lawyers who were caught using AI that hallucinated in which they explained to a judge why they used AI. The explanations are astonishing and extremely good:

RIP Aaron Swartz 🥺
1. Ruby Central claimed that since they used the RubyGems open source code, they *had to control it* for “security”.
2. Ruby Central uses my open source code, Phlex and Phlex-Rails.
3. Does this mean that Ruby Central now have the right to takeover my gems “for security”?
I wrote an opinion piece on the RubyGems takeover, which I have been careful to separate from my reporting on what happened and my fact-checking.
Why I’m not rushing to take sides in the RubyGems fiasco (but I’m tripping over my own dick to dish a decade’s worth of pent-up gossip and resentment about one person)
After the RubyGems takeover, Ruby Central left André Arko with access to critical production systems including the production database.
Only for like 600-700 years, so yeah, a while. That’s pretty modern and “woke” for some of these people to catch up on. 🤣
Simi just wrote up an announcement that he’s done cooperating RubyCentral and it’s another very important read in this whole situation. Notably, he confirms everything in Joel Drapper’s write-up that’s already been circulating and really puts Ruby Central on blast.

I guess we can thank Wordpress for the prior art

every company on earth demanding its underpaid workers use the garbage generator machine for everything and now they're mad that all they're getting is garbage
After listening to about a dozen first-hand accounts, I’ve published what I know about the RubyGems takeover.
I’ve known André for, like, twenty years? If he’s your bad guy, you need to check the batteries on your carbon monoxide alarms immediately.
❤️ Yeah, I assumed it as mostly ignorance… but it’s hard for that to not feel like it’s willful given the previous cast has spoken out repeatedly. Then there’s also “it’s just an audio play, no one will notice or care as much” that could be extra :/. I mean get paid, etc, but…. :(
The list of actors who signed onto the audiobook/audioplay was depressing and made me feel like nobody actually cares, outside of trans adjacent circles.
Take your Kimmel protest energy and use it to freeze out that hateful JKR too!
Maybe HP was a part of your childhood. Well now it's a slap in the face and a dagger in the back of people who just wanna live.
Don't let her see a dime!
The funniest thing about Charlie Kirk was that his entire shtick as a teenager was “watch this college dropout DESTROY these undergrads.” And he then went through the entirety of his 20s and into his 30s … still debating undergrads.
It’s as if a competent would-be little leaguer no one had heard of showed up at Williamsport and struck out some kids — then just kept playing against succeeding generations of 12 year olds for another decade.
TIL DHH and Tobi are racing together.

That’d be a far more exciting past time, befitting their status!
Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

Some people think ChatGPT has a place writing things like news briefs, stuff written to a specific style and tone and, y'know, kinda boring.
So Science did a study.
ChatGPT failed.
Why? It got stuff wrong. "Also, extensive editing for hyperbole was needed." www.science.org/content/blog...
Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.
Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.
Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.
Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.
Whatever gets us more cool stuff!
… unfortunately, as you know, people. But I guess spite powered motivation is a thing, and whatever gets them out of bed in the afternoon.
This is, at best, an extreme mischaracterization of what’s happened over the past week.
As a member of the rubygems team for over a decade, Ruby Central’s actions happened without discussion with the maintainers team. Afterwords, the entire team spoke out against what had happened.
