I wonder what fraction of actually used in the wild exploit vectors for web browsers just *go away* when you install ublock. Is it 95%? 99%?
I think google should finally demonstrate that they're actually serious about internet safety and push an update with UBO active by default on all chrome installs
Long-duration energy storage is not waiting for one perfect invention. It needs markets that value time, contracts investors can finance and infrastructure that can deliver. My new evidence-led briefing examines what must change, and why grids are the next part of the story.

Mastodon is a work of fiction. All of the characters, organizations, and events portrayed in your timeline are either products of the poster's imagination or are used fictitiously.
I believe in me.
Hi English reader. Can you confirm that when we post in English you see this post ?
French readers, can you see this English post ?
@cartes_app Hi, English reader here. I can see the post but it gives me a "translate" button and thinks it's in French.
@phloggen @mavu @heidilifeldman I’m not sure what you mean. Election outcomes are certified by state officials.
As for whether people will “accept” election results, that depends on lots of things. But actually holding the election is a prerequisite to even having that conversation.
I’m not sure what nihilistic fatalism accomplishes here. What will happen is far from certain, and this is far from over.

The climate crisis is not waiting for the future. We must END fossil fuels, now.
@greenpeace Description: Two weather maps of France. Above map shows the notification "DEMAIN APRÈS MIDI 18 AOÛT 2050" and temperatures from 26°C in Bretagne until 43°C around Avignon. Below image shows "France prévision demain après-midi, Lundi, 22 juin 2026" and a map with temperatures between 28°C in Northern Normandie and 43°C in three locations in central and south-western France (Bordeaux, Nantes, Tours).
I totally endorse using nato phonetics. Useful for radio, calls, & even things like being a LEGAL OBSERVER in high stress situations where comms matter. I make these wallet friendly plastic cards that I give away all the time to help learn! Made my kids learn by reading out license plates and signs.

Oui.
Mais force est de constater que l'IA industrialise la médiocrité (et là encore je ne parle pas *que* du développement logiciel. Il suffit de voir le web ou les réseaux sociaux noyés d'articles de merde.)
"L'IA n'est qu'un outil" pourrait peut-être être valable si on était pas dans une économie capitaliste de l'attention.
@sebsauvage @pb on pourrait dire que les blogs ont industrialisé la médiocrité de l’écriture. Ou alors qu’ils ont permis tout à chacun de faire son truc en toute liberté

Now I'm off to navigate public transport and a hospital for a cardiologist appointment and then the same in reverse.

@alexisbushnell I've just had to tell Cress she can't fight the lemurs at the zoo. Can you just back me up and confirm that you won't give her any 😜 for it?
Y a du LLM ?
Parce que je crois que "on n'utilise pas ces trucs" est un argument clef pour trouver des perles.
@nartagnan Non, pas de LLM ou ce "genre de truc" dans notre quotidien 😀

Hier j'ai testé une nouvelle appli de GPS pour Andoid.
ça m'a mis assez mal à l'aise, comme si les développeurs de l'appli n'avaient fait aucun choix, aucun autre choix que de copier le plus Waze. Tout est bancal dans l'appli.
Quelqu'un m'a appris plus tard que c'était vibe-codé.
Oui effectivement je ne l'aurais pas deviné... mais les résultats sont là.
Les conséquences de l'IA vont être très concrètes dans toute la société, et pas que dans le développement logiciel.
@sebsauvage @pb oui mais quand tu vibe code tu peux choisir de faire de la merde ou de diriger vraiment ce que tu veux. Qu’est-ce qui t’empêche de choisir les détails de l’UI et de l’UX ?
Après tout c’est qu’un outil. C’est customisable à l’infini.

I am working on an art project that requires some precisely cut material, I need someone with a laser cutter.
As I was engaging online one site asked me to upload a file for an estimate, I uploaded a .svg file thinking I was being pretty technical.

They are definitely the right vendor.
