I gotta say, "Google Search is added to the list of products killed by Google" was not on my year's bingo card.
The most significant downside of the mastodon and so-called fediverse is that it has no users. It's just me from millions of accounts, and to prove that i'll now post this from all of them

IT WAS IN THE TRAINING DATA. Your gave the machine a pile of correct answers and free license to plagiarize.
I remember people being wowed that Claude Code could implement a complete C compiler. But somehow it doesn’t sound quite as impressive when you phrase it as “given every existing C compiler as input, the LLM can produce a C compiler as output.”

Buonasera amic*, l'estate è ormai cominciata, qui si ride e si scherza ma vorrei fare delle puntualizzazioni per evitare che dal disagio sfoci il pensiero magico*:
1) se fa caldo, non è colpa di quelli che si lamentano del freddo
2) se fa freddo, non è colpa di quelli che si lamentano del caldo
3) se X dice:"che bello oggi c'è il sole", non significa che X apprezzi il cambiamento climatico o che ne sia la causa principale
4) se Y dice "mannaggia volevo andare al mare ma piove" , non significa che Y desidera la siccità e la morte della specie umana
tenendo conto di questi assunti, buon divertimento e guerra caldisti vs freddisti

@GeePawHill Some year it would be interesting to discuss the value of connoisseurship because it cuts to a distinction that I think is true about how you and I listen to music. I will say that I think any literary list that includes Joyce, Dostoevsky, and Kafka is self-subverting-it can neither be useful as a reading list to connoisseurs nor non-connoisseurs. (And, I love Kafka.)
@hsfear It's an endlessly fascinating topic for art of all kinds, I think.
What role does education play? How do we bring the juniors along so that they can even *understand* what the cutting edge is doing. Or should we, even? Maybe it's our private VIP bar, and one can only ever find it by oneself.
I've learned so much from stretching myself to try and grok some of Pat Metheny's music. *Some* of it. Some is still out of my reach.
@PragmaticAndy I'll have to refresh my memory of his take.
@GeePawHill Live At Jimmy’s version. Great live album. May call dolphins.
Abbiamo davvero bisogno della polizia?
In “Immagina un mondo senza polizia “, Geo Maher non propone un’utopia ingenua: indica la strada per rendere obsoleti polizia, carcere, confini e apparati di deportazione, mostrando che la sicurezza può nascere da comunità forti, giustizia sociale e mutuo soccorso.

@erincandescent yes
La sfida delle nostre rivolte è stata il nostro incontro: da Nord a Sud, da Est a Ovest, dall’esilio e dal fronte della lotta, le nostre parole sono quelle nate dalle rivoluzioni in Egitto, Sudan e Iraq, dalle rivolte contadine in India, dalla ondata di lotte femministe in America Latina, dal movimento per George Floyd negli Stati Uniti, dall’insurrezione in Sri Lanka, dalla resistenza palestinese e ucraina, e da tutti quei luoghi in cui qualcuno lotta per dimostrare che un mondo libero dai tiranni è ancora possibile. E per immaginare quello che verrà dopo.
Dalla tipografia è appena arrivata la nostra ultima novità "Le rivoluzioni del nostro tempo. Un manifesto" del collettivo The peoples want.
Disponibile in libreria dal 29 maggio.

@helge oh that's interesting, I didn't realize it wasn't thru iCloud or whatever their version of Firebase is... I'm not sure I have the mental bandwidth but it would be good to find the docs and share with the people doing this effort. I have nothing to do with this one other than being a heavy CalDAV user, I just posted the link because I am trying to drum up support/awareness/usage of CalDAV on fedi.
@deutrino Push on iOS essentially always has to go through APS on Apple platforms, there is no way around that. The difference is that Push is usually bound to apps. But w/ CalDAV Push you have the situation where the app is a generic app like Apple Calendar.app, but 3rd party servers can still push to it.
Either way, the mechanism isn't Apple specific IIRC, it just provides the endpoints to register push subscribers and such. I suspect it might make sense to just use this mechanism, not sure.
@SKleefeld nice! He has a lot of stuff I hate. Too rave for me. But this style is delightful. He has a few records in this area that I’m exploring.
@markwyner Yeah, I get that. I'm definitely not a fan of his rave type stuff either. FWIW, I do rather like most of the album "Andorra" as well.

"The safety guarantee of European digital infrastructure is not that it’s European but that it’s democratic.
European digital infrastructure is presumed to be safer not because of its location, but because of the democratic governance that controls the legal environment in which it operates. The assumption of stable democratic governance is precisely what an authoritarian wave now moving across Europe is putting in doubt."
@GeePawHill Maynard Ferguson’s version is definitive for me.
@PragmaticAndy I'll have to refresh my memory of his take.
“Dobbiamo dichiarare ufficialmente una situazione di emergenza dovuta ai cambiamenti climatici.
Senza questo passaggio, non si potrà trattare la questione come un problema cronico, di fondo”.
