Thanks to the Tokio community for hosting us this week! Congrats on day 1 of the inaugural #tokioconf 🎉
I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

AI star symbol.
It's funny (not funny) how this ubiquitous symbol screams 'beware, incoming trash!' I have an instant reaction of revulsion whenever it pops up.
Instead of asking chatgpt, why not ask a librarian? You'll get real answers and they won't tell you to kill yourself.
No country in the world needs regime change as much as the United States does
⚠️ An active phishing attack is targeting crate owners by asking them to "confirm that your email address is still active". These messages are not from crates.io, and should be ignored. (We will never ask you to confirm that your e-mail address is still active.) ⚠️
Michael Collins, the chap who took this photograph, remains the only person on earth to have taken a photo that had everyone in shot aside himself.
If Artemis is going up then it gives me an excuse to once again post this photo, the only one to contain every human being in the universe but one.
If you use GitHub (especially if you pay for it!!) consider doing this *immediately*
Settings -> Privacy -> Disallow GitHub to train their models on your code.
GitHub opted *everyone* into training. No matter if you pay for the service (like I do). WTH

Advocate: J.K. Rowling uses Harry Potter wealth to fund anti-transgender organization.
You absolutely cannot separate the artist and the art without contributing to the persecution of trans people. Boycott everything Potter.
Surely something along these lines...
I have availability for Rust coaching, or consulting on Rust strategy from early April; from a single call to ongoing 2 days/week. I can help your team get things done, adopt Rust and use it more effectively, or to accurately evaluate Rust as a new technology.
Working with Microsoft Azure every day for the past two years, I'm not at all surprised by the remark that it's "a pile of shit".
OpenAI just killed uv, ruff, and ty. I'm so glad I'm no longer an active part of the Python community because this is truly sad. Terrible decision by Astral.

I’m tired y’all…
All you age verification folks…
Log off.
Throw out your phone and computer.
Stop participating in building a global surveillance system.

Everybody is (understandably) very excited that Anthropic isn't selling their AI for Hegseth to use to automate his war crimes. But I would gently suggest that we not accept setting the bar quite so low. www.anildash.com/2026/02/27/a...
Radiohead is demanding that the Trump administration take down a pro-ICE promotional video featuring a version of its song “Let Down” without permission.
Full statement from the band:
This is amazing.

The FCC just opened public comments on SpaceX's plan to launch a million satellites to do AI compute in space. Under the current proposal, an environmental review won't be required. Please consider submitting a public comment to oppose this damaging plan.

Never forget the fact that the very first iteration of FB, as The Face Book, created by him was for rating the hotness of girls on his campus. Arguably this is the ethical foundation of all his work.
In my first week of my first job I deleted an important customer's entire website by accident. The next week I was in charge of implementing a backup feature in our bespoke CMS to ensure it never happened again.
Let's hope he stays an incel, and that his genes die with him.
he’s a self-identified incel who says he’s never been with a woman and buddy it shows
