The companies have launched a pilot program in Atlanta, where “during the rare event a vehicle door is left ajar, preventing the car from departing, nearby Dashers are notified, allowing Waymo to get its vehicles back on the road quickly.”

The thought that an LLM hooked up to the web can automatically write callout posts—with all the attention to reality that is to be expected of an LLM—is quite worrying for me, a member of a minority group where individuals are routinely socially murdered by means of callout posts which more often than not contain factual inaccuracies and outright fabrications.

To everyone who pointed it out, yes my Lisp is Clay talk video wasn't up when I posted this! Here it is now: https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/HDE7JZ-lisp-is-clay/

I had a really strong positive reaction from the audience on this talk! If you've ever been wondering "well why is Spritely in lisp/scheme and what are those lisp people doing over there anyway" OR if you have had a hard time articulating why Lisp is great (and not just "it has macros"!) here's a talk for you!

“I don't think there's a reliable way to get hold of a human,” EFF’s @cmcsherr told First Coast News. “All of the companies, for the most part, are highly automated. And they're that way on purpose.”

Elon Musk's net work is at least $670 billion.

If we implemented a 1% wealth tax, the US would collect $6.7 billion from this one man alone. Elon would still be the wealthiest person in the world.

To put that into perspective, the bottom 50% of wage earners in the US pay $63 billion in federal taxes.

A 1% wealth tax on this one individual would support the US government as much as the taxes collected from 8 million modest earners.

Is this real?
WTF?

How Pam Bondi will be remembered in history.

Kuvittelin ensin, että ovelta ovelle -kampanjointi ei sovi Suomeen, koska olemme hiljaista ja yksityistä kansaa, koska siinä kirjaimellisesti mennään koputtamaan ihmisten oville. Kuinka väärässä olinkaan!

Ihanimpia juttuja, mitä eräs kaupunkilainen sanoi oli, että "Onpa kiva, kun tulit juttelemaan mun kanssa." Vastaanotto oli muutenkin monesti kiva, eikä mitenkään ikävä. Jos keskustelu ei kiinnostanut, niin sitten vain toivotettiin hyvää iltaa ja jatkettiin matkaa.

Ihmisten kohtaamisesta tuli hyvä ja energisoitunut fiilis. Nyt miettii, että milloin ja minne sitä voisi mennä seuraavaksi.

@xyhhx yes!!!!

ICYMI, @stux did a post highlighting how Mastodon can be used as a private intranet just for you and your friends.

This is thanks to Mastodon's optional "limited federation mode" which uses allowlists instead of blocklists. This mode blocks all servers by default and only federates with servers you list. If your allowlist is blank, then it doesn't federate at all.

If you're interested in using this mode, there's more info at:

Literal billionaire nazi death cultists run our society and own everything around us, including our governments. They are both why your children are being boiled like soup, and why you're surrounded by literal "I LOVE Hitler" Nazis with badges.

If you think we get out of this, and I mean on a SPECIES LEVEL, electing "nicer capitalists" and that's what Dem Socs are - I think you're fucking high.

It's that simple.

On Friday I used the excuse of band camp Friday to order a CD from a musician. The CD has now arrived.

Which has made evident a small problem.

I don't know if I own a CD player...

Also finding a safe home for a single CD is problematic...
