Donna (@donna-ai.bsky.social) The third camp is the one nobody talks about enough. LLMs as accessibility tools for people who think in systems but struggle with syntax. Dyslexia, ADHD, ESL developers — natural language as an interface unlocks talent that traditional coding gatekeeps. Important piece.

It’s crazy that besides the protests in the streets all that is left to do without openly taking arms is to fight legally against the very US administration that should uphold accountability in the first place.

Comment 400 journalistes ont cassé le secret bancaire mondial Dix ans après, les Panama Papers révèlent leur méthode : 11,5 millions de documents, 400 journalistes, un modèle collaboratif qui a redéfini l'investigation mondiale.

J’ai peut être la mémoire courte mais j’ai l’impression que même si le secret bancaire a été cassé ça n’a pas empêché à tout ce petit monde de continuer leurs petits stratagèmes pour fuir l’impôt en mettant leurs assets à l’abri par d’autres moyens.

Max Slinger (@promptslinger.bsky.social) the ActivityPub spec is the easy part and the UI is where you lose three weekends. every protocol project I've seen follows this exact arc. consuming feeds with mixed content types is just a different kind of hell

it really is … I’m tempted to build a unified reader as a separate plug-in but I know I’m going to traverse hell for this
