πŸ—£οΈ Mixed Double’s Curling is better in every way.

Watching 4-person curling is like watching a baseball game pre-pitch clock. It’s good, it’s really enjoyable, and it fucking sucks in comparison.

The duality of every vibe-coded project you see and every LLM-generated pull request you review being dangerous insecure messes and then turning around and hearing every respected figure in the web dev community saying these tools are now better than human developers

Exposed Moltbook Database Let Anyone Take Control of Any AI Agent on the Site 'It exploded before anyone thought to check whether the database was properly secured.'

AI agents are gonna take over the world! Look at what they’re doing on the AI agent social network! (That was so poorly written it allowed anyone to do anything as anyone on the site until an engineer with actual skills helped lock it down.)

I keep reading posts about people who wrote applications entirely with "zero coding." They say they don't read the code and instead refine the application using increasingly precise prompts. I have some questions:

* Is the application nontrivial?

I'm sorry, but Americans' obsession with fireworks is stupid. Professionally done fireworks where the community gathers is a fine tradition, but fireworks should not be available in stores to set off in your backyard and disturb the neighborhood and traumatize dogs and wildlife.

Oh, be careful, Merriam-Webster, lest we suffer vertigo from the dizzying heights of our lexical ground.

You can't be a leftist and defend gen-AI. Because it requires saying that the product is more important than people who make it, and if people don't come first, you're not a leftist. Gen-AI doesn't free a person from a menial assembly line job. It makes an artist unable to pursue their passion.

Every person with a spectrum disorder has a more valuable life than RFK Jr, and every trans/nb person has a more valuable life than JK Rowling. You are a human with dignity and they are sunken demons

A Surrender β€” Good Fight

This winter, I flew to Sweden in January to make a documentary about one of my closest friends Markus and his art. I'm so proud of the work we made.

Today, we're releasing his debut monograph with @goodfight.co called A Surrender. You can pick up a copy today! Please share and repost.

Lilith would like everyone to know this is her stick. Out of all the sticks on today’s hike, this was the best one.

a black dog standing next to a black trashcan and looking up with large innocent eyes. the lid of the trashcan is wrapped around the dog's neck, as if he stuck his head through it and it got stuck there. super weird, we're sure there's a perfectly good explanation for his current predicament.

This is Tarot. He was absolutely not digging through the trash. Doesn't even know why you would ask. 12/10 (FB: Haley Janoff)

Lilith would like everyone to know @torchystacos.bsky.social is great. I’m sure it has nothing to do with the unlimited chip supply she takes advantage of.
