@tante A who is who of dickheads or worse…
So DHH (the racist and fascist) got 8 million USD for his foundation for his garbage half-baked config files that he claims are a "distribution".

I hate this timeline.
New Shirt Alert! 🚨👕
I really like this one because
it is also educational! 🔒✨
This shirt's design references the 7 foundational principles of Privacy by Design, developed by Ann Cavoukian in 1995:
1. Proactive
2. Default
3. Embedded
4. Functional
5. Secure
6. Transparent
7. User-centric

New Zealand is to introduce a bill banning children under 16 from social media. Platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat and Facebook could face fines of up to 10% of global revenue if they fail to verify users' age. The government says social media exposes children to harmful content and addictive technology. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cj068q7qj19o #Media #SocialMedia #Privacy
@Em0nM4stodon There's a photographer here (in the UK) who has been quite vocal in her criticism against them, posting reactions on LinkedIn pages (not that that will hurt them much). She also raised awareness to a petition in the UK to try and have them banned or at least discussed in Parliament.
In addition, and this is a nice win, she got the school her daughter attends to ban them. Feels like that could snowball hopefully.

@Steve12L comme ma banque est aussi mon assurance, j'ai pensé que c'était plutôt à ce titre qu'ils me prévenaient
@Natouille Itou pour moi.
Je n'y avais pas pensé !
Et je pense que tu as raison.
👍🏼
@Natouille Première fois moi.
Etonnant.

The AI code-review bot my company uses just wasted 2 hours of my time. It reported a bug in cache logic in a PR. I didn't change caching, but it's a Rails app so unexpected invalidations and indeterminate staleness can both happen. Report said it doesn't invalidate properly, so I investigated but couldn't find the bug.
It was talking about the fact that these cache entries can be stale for up to 2 minutes, which is intentional. There's even a comment about it right above my changes.
@jamie It looks like think our job as _seniors_, _staff_ (or what not) is to debunk what the AI suggess or "discovers", they are getting closer, but nowadays (Aug 2026) still had a lot of red herrings.
Last week the AI suggested us to use `ENV.fetch('key')` instead of `ENV['key']` in order to _fix_ a security issue with ruby's JWT gem, that was technically correct, but in our case it would make a fraction of our fleet down because reasons - to long for a post. Blind flight is a risk, tho
Just sent the US government six dollars so they will continue to recognize us as benefiting from section 230.

it's a shame that, as i understand it, mobile development is the worst it's ever been, or i'd probably clean house

@theeclecticdyslexic you don't say why I, or you should give attention to this. I tend to want more than "I've been told", or the rest of what you say if I'm to get activated about something.
I'm not saying this isn't worthy of vitriol, I'm asking why it is because I don't know, when I've seen people hating on DHH a few times recently without knowing that is behind that.
So can anyone point me to his racist or fascist statements, or his support for others making such statements for ex.
