Your original post about this tree is actually how I came to follow you back in the day. When I later moved out to the bay area I'd look for the tree every time I was in the area. Never did get a chance to see it up close. But I loved that tale.

An illustration of an orange horse with a cream colored nose. It has large protuberant brown eyes that are too detailed for the rest of the very exaggerated and cartoonish creature. It has like 5 wispy black hairs.

An infographic. There are six panels. 1. "Slow internet. Alt text is shown in place of unloaded images." a drawing shows a phone with poor signal, and alt text is visible where the image should have loaded. 2. "Findabillity. Alt text helps to search content." A drawing shows someone searching 'dog with banana' and a post is shown underneath without the words 'dog' or 'banana'. It is implied to be part of the alt text. 3. "Screen readers. Alt is read out to people using text-to-speech software". There is a drawing of the output a screen-reader would show when viewing an image with alt text on bluesky. 4. "Translation. Alt text can be translated". A drawing shows a post being translated. The alt text is also translated into german. 5. "Readability. Text in images can be made legible" There is a drawing of some truly awful handwriting inside a speech bubble. The alt text clarifies what the text is supposed to say. 6. "Disambiguation. Description helps clarify intent." There is a drawing of a post with a picture of a creature. This is styled after the famous optical illusion of a rabbit and a duck. The alt text clarifies that the animal is a rabbit. It definitely looks more like a duck.
Generally we think of alt-text as the domain of those with accessibility needs.
However alt-text is useful for many reasons, which benefit your viewers, as well as you, the creator!

How did you fight capitalism today?
I was in the stall long enough that the motion sensor lights turned off.

you fucking guessed it! "Last year, Philz was purchased by private equity firm Freeman Spogli & Co., which also owns Popeyes Chicken and El Pollo Loco, for a reported $145 million, according to Mission Local, though the company did not provide details of the deal."
I rendered Bad Apple!! on TIS-100.
This was a fun long weekend project, and I got to learn about some of the internals of one of my favourite puzzle games!

Please consider helping me out. Even with insurance reimbursing part of the cost, I am really going to struggle to pay for any more intensive treatments than pills and rest. Anything you can offer will help me take care of my service dog, even a retweet helps.
Thank you so much.

Even in a world where LLM never existed this is solid mentoring
I have tried so hard to articulate that last RT to junior folks for years, as Dana says, itโs a truth that precedes AI crap. The instinct to want to rush to a later point in your career already is powerful and important, but equally so is the opposing force that trains you.
Weโre excited to announce that weโre making our SEGA logo 3% more blue.
We hope you enjoy this upgrade.
Please take a moment to familiarise yourself with the new look.
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the layoff of the CEO of Glass Bottom Games, Megan Fox. Our board members (Megan Fox, Megan Fox, and Megan Fox respectively) had an emergency meeting, and it was determined that in these challenging economic times, we could no longer afford such an expensive leader. We wish her well in her future endeavors. Thankfully, Megan Fox, our lead programmer, will be stepping into an interim leadership role and will be guiding our studio's future and making sure that we never have to face such a grim day again. That being said, the board retains all relevant powers and oversight, and will keep an eye on this new leader, and wishes to assure our shareholders (who are also Megan Fox) that we can and will fire Megan Fox again, because she is infinitely replaceable with another Megan Fox.

trans day of visibility? NO. trans day of pocket sand
It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you.
If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can.
Everyone give this a share after.
