@randahl Hey Randahl,
It’s 2026, not Dickensian England; we call it mutual aid, not begging.
If we’re talking about Gazans, they are currently facing genocide at the hands of Israel with the full support of countries like the USA, Germany, and the UK and the complicity of almost the entirety of the so-called civilised West. International organisations like the UN are deliberately being prevented from functioning by Israel and US.
If you want a list of people we’ve verified via video calls that you can help during this ongoing genocide by settler colonialists, please see:
https://gaza-verified.org/donate/
I would strongly urge you to take the context into consideration. Ask yourself what you would do if you couldn’t feed your family, if you couldn’t afford to treat your sick children, if the institutions that were supposed to be helping were shackled, and if you were actively being hounded off of every other online space by corporations complicit in the genocide being perpetrated against you.
If people are being forced to ask for help, it’s not their failing but the failing of the system that is forcing them to do so.
@aral
There is no shame in asking for money on social media. Lord knows, most of us are one setback away from penury. Giving money to people who need it is an necessary charitable act.
But please don’t call it “mutual aid.” Mutual aid is mutual. Mutual aid is people working to take care of each other collectively. Mutual aid is building power and changing our circumstances together.
è un quarto d'ora che provo a scrivere un consiglio su Veloso per @matz ma trovo sempre una canzone più bella di quella che avevo pensato in precedenza.
Amo molto l'album Transa registrato durante l'esilio londinese.

Fun Fact: My smartphone is turned off 95% of the time or so. I only turn it on when I have a specific need for a specific function. The overwhelming vast majority of my activities are on desktop systems, using native code or browsers where the invasive permissions of common mobile apps are generally not present. REMEMBER: The reason so many websites push you to use their mobile apps is that the iOS and Android permission environments provide vastly more opportunities for the collection of your personal data.
@lauren Happily a Graphene user as of two weeks ago, but this surely is a more definitive approach, I respect it ♥️
Timmy Trumpet should be fined for false advertising, because it’s clearly a trombone.
@jpm Timmy is the trumpet. Definitely some kind of blowhard bell-end device at least

@rbreich At this point, is it safe to say that #trump’s name appears more often in the files than #epstein? Maybe they should name them the #trumpfiles.
@jamie @toddsundsted examples of things we learned: handing over a PR should include the plan doc. The plan should be checked off by the AI as you go so it needs no other context to start up again. Plans should have sequence diagrams so you can understand what you’re asking it to do and also see what it built, and so it can understand the overall picture in not that many tokens. We’ve often handed off PRs and happily completed them.
@jamie @toddsundsted if you discover things are off track, have it assess the code against the plan and ensure it didn’t miss anything. If something is wrong with the design, revise the plan and get it to adapt the code. Because it’s non-deterministic, getting it to review its own code is also very effective.

Criticize the government online? DHS might demand Google hand over your info.

@malwareminigun the question is, how much is "very little"?

@raphaelmorgan oh i didn't intend to throw too much shade there actually just meant to note that it seems insufficient as a criteria on its own and worth noting just because nonprofits are very much created as corporate shells. it's not like an easy problem to solve at all i just do think that governance concern is an essential component of a robust solution
@hipsterelectron very good point, we def need to be wary of trusting nonprofits just because they claim to be nonprofits 😅 hopefully any software that pops up is thoroughly vetted by the community either way, and we take "nonprofit" as a yellow-green flag but dig further into how much of a lie that is lol
