Threat intel and Cybersecurity research firms: if you're not providing RSS feeds to your blog, you're hurting your brand.
Whatever traffic you think you're driving to the site by preventing analysts from ingesting feeds is outweighed by the reputational damage of not providing a service we expect and rely on.
And if your reason is because it's hard behind Cloudflare, well, you're telling on yourself twice.

@zwol the way i've talked about it to people is "we've tried making it super painful to use unstable features and it hasn't helped much; have we tried making them easier to stabilize instead?"
@sundogplanets @MelkyWay wow you have hamsters? Our data packets get delivered by ferry. Social media comes over on the dangerous cargo sailing.
@ChrisCorrigan @MelkyWay We switched over to hamsters here in Saskatchewan after some piracy incidents on Regina's mighty shores.

US law enforcement warns of "anti-tech extremism" as AI hatred grows
The feds are raising the alarm about a new category of threat.

@arstechnica I think you'll find what they decry as "extremism" is actually the moderate or centrist position thanks
I'm surprised that anyone can afford gaslighting these days.
There must be a renewable equivalent.
@neil
My brain went immediately to "fart lighting" for some reason. A renewable form of gas production, I guess. But that's a completely different activity.
in all, ahem, seriousness, if you want a Liberated Social Network but you only want stern serious grown-up posts on it, you haven’t liberated jack
@da_667 oh yeah, docker will fuck you HARD with its brain-damaged networking configuration assumptions. If I ever need to run anything inside docker, I’ll run one docker container inside a proper VM or Incus container so docker can drool all over its own private network configuration without stomping on the dicks of anything else.
@jpm I'm just so fucking irritated because I don't want to have to run a Linux VM on a physical Linux host to run containers because docker is pants on head stupid.
I'm glad I found a solution. Still fucking pissed I had to figure all this out.

a stalwart Man was subjected to my post with a cute girly aesthetic and he took the time to let me know how much it annoyed him that there are posts on Mastodon that are cute and girly. There is of course only one solution
Given the recent burst of activity around enterprise pricing and contracts, I think April 2026 was the month when both OpenAI and Anthropic found product-market fit https://simonwillison.net/2026/May/27/product-market-fit/
@simon so to get a shareholder-fit they need to charge each user 20k per month to get 10x growth in 2-3 years?
