It’s really weird, because every platform has assholes or whatever, but usually it’s due to context collapse from strangers. Here, it’s usually a tiny minority that wants to scold or police over (often contrived!) objections, and it’s just… exhausting. Takes the fun out of hanging out online. Not sure how to fix it. 2026-06-23T20:23:23+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqstyuhnctqvwp9zshg3wefp790m8vzz3e243s8ztsdln7nlqmjqczqzyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3g02t8th This has been on my mind for *weeks*.

The multi-trillion-dollar AI industry? Their *most advanced platforms* are controlled by a plain text format that John Gruber made up for his blog, and then bounced off of a 17-year-old Aaron Swartz, before sharing it with the world for free. *That* is the internet. Here&#39;s the amazing (true!) story of how Markdown took over the world. <a href="https://www.anildash.com/2026/01/09/how-markdown-took-over-the-world/">https://www.anildash.com/2026/01/09/how-markdown-took-over-the-world/</a> 2026-01-09T17:26:50+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqspkq7rngk0jdfprhdxxv8lrdwrutdjr5vxxljsq8yvlsz562z7h6gzyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3gq6l89j Since ChatGPT came out in late 2022, over *half a million* tech workers have been laid off. That fact, and their voices, aren&#39;t really shaping the conversation about AI, and what &#34;AI&#34; really means in culture. So I started to get into it: <a href="https://www.anildash.com/2026/01/06/500k-tech-workers-laid-off/">https://www.anildash.com/2026/01/06/500k-tech-workers-laid-off/</a> 2026-01-06T23:29:20+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsqn36fvgfn232cmkdw5sh5ngdmcy0hpgg7vmcxt644cpkphn245qgzyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3g460q72 The number one thing I&#39;ve been hearing from people in tech lately is, basically, &#34;How the hell am I supposed to work in this industry anymore?&#34; Though most folks are kind of afraid to say it out loud.

We do this *no matter* how votes go today, no matter what disruptions or attacks come, so find peace in knowing what does not change, what they can never stop. Once you’ve voted, sign off, and don’t look or scroll if it causes you stress. Tomorrow we get to work. 2024-11-05T13:56:51+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsyn2nzlcacm7kaa5uma88jpzryh9uygqfnyq9u5twnzr2l0tqefuszyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3gts9qs0 4th day of November… <a href="https://youtu.be/dZ5msDv_X4o?t=128">https://youtu.be/dZ5msDv_X4o?t=128</a> 2024-11-05T03:45:07+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsgl823yqrqvtqcehyljsd427c7nx75tnhl9w320elwvdgqmtwea3szyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3g9mk80t Please, if you have kids out tonight, be aware and careful as drivers will kill more children tonight than any other night of the year. <a href="https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2022/10/31/23427256/halloween-children-car-deaths-pedestrian-safety">https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2022/10/31/23427256/halloween-children-car-deaths-pedestrian-safety</a> 2024-10-31T13:21:53+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsrsm4wrjsk3yjztvquhk5y4kevrmmwyreycpk75y9ndx505pl5s6szyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3gkd00w8 I have an old iMac with a 5K screen and an Intel processor, and I&#39;d love to pay somebody to hack one of the new M4 Mac minis into fitting inside that great old case and using that screen. 2024-10-29T19:47:45+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsvpqkjnhnnkdg8svkyycg7e3h2twtvke9x4efclem5fhmucp2qs3czyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3g3ylrt3 Hi friends! Today is a good day to remind you: if you are in this fight against the fascists, doing the work to care for the vulnerable, I am joyously conspiring with you! If you are enthusiastic &amp; excited, I am too. If you are worried and have misgivings about some of the people or policies in the coalition, I do too. But if you are committed to the work, we will get there together. I’m grateful for your company. 2024-10-28T00:51:48+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs2ljezgct4xs94q5jkk6fhpjdfvq7wt0nz49jhu43qp84e26ycfvszyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3guyc527 Hey everyone! Tomorrow (Friday the 25th) at 5pm NYC time on YouTube, I&#39;m going to try something I&#39;ve been wanting to do for a while: answering your questions about the tech world from the perspective of someone who&#39;s been in many different roles over the past 2 decades. I&#39;m especially interested in questions that can help folks with their careers! If you have a question you want answered, just reply or DM, along with whether you&#39;d like to be anonymous or not. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/bnWJxxczsB0">https://www.youtube.com/live/bnWJxxczsB0</a> 2024-10-25T05:06:40+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsr96p8f4tyrqgcgkfgty4adpus2sun3345u5g7jl54ksmykegp5tczyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3gdpe76u Your LinkedIn should list whatever emojis you added to Slack at your workplace. 2024-10-22T21:02:47+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsqpgruy3emnlxr89xfsh700zar9u8a3e04va5jhqspn37w03latmgzyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3guptj2u I rarely use ride-sharing apps because they&#39;re destructive to public infrastructure I care about, but recently I had to use Lyft and YOU CAN&#39;T USE IT ON THE WEB. Their website literally tells you to go get the app, so you can&#39;t use a desktop browser at all to access their platform. That is an absolutely *wild* choice, and even more absurd that it goes unnoticed in the current media/tech ecosystem. 2024-10-22T16:01:03+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsd4g4m6eadgew6vrms9ekgck7nun425amx4ud9jtvax7n7t4tq86qzyr2zfs55tqukgmk3du523vwf30jfhhzyfptxxcmjgest3dk7f4k3gm2kz3d Proud of everyone at <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1m24qfk8mead3xy9d3ctx9amt6f74ukepdqca9eey4mgn2502ynfsujd9a3" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Electronic Frontier Foundation</span> (<span class="italic">npub1m24…d9a3</span>)</a></span> — workers, leadership and community — for coming together on a milestone agreement.
