After all these years of coding, today, for the first time I decided to install #Neovim ...
Will I stay mentally healthy?
Who knows, I've done the first part of the tutorial and I feel a strong attraction.
The more time passes, the more I fall in ❤️ love with big pixels and blocky cursors.

I've just seen an absolutely disgusting article. I said "seen", not "read", because I'm blind and I could not read it.
for your reference, here's the first beautiful sentence of this article:
"ffGE ARrj XRejm XAj bZgui cB R EXZgl, Rmi mjji jrjg-DmygjREDmI XgRDmDmI iRXR XZ DlkgZrj."
I don't know the technology behind this BS, but screen readers see it as scrambled text, kind of encrypted or something like this. I guess it's some font juggling (ChatGPT supposed it's gliph scrambling, where random Unicode values are mapped to random letters — I'll trust her in this because I really don't care about the tech behind it), but if you have a tiny little grain of empathy, never ever ever do this, for goodness sake.

Major Cloud providers have all suffered significant outages recently. At an unprecedented rate.
They are firing engineers because of their 'AI'.
I wonder if these things are related.
@stefano I am certain they are. So far, #tech companies are pouring billions into #AI but there is little to no #roi.
For AI to be used correctly it needs to serve some otherwise mundane function, not replace staff with decades of institutional #knowledge.
So far, we've seen AI churn out glitchy #pictures and #erroneous #text #generation.
Call me a #Luddite, but this is definitely an instance where going back to the olden days is necessary, i.e. a decentralized #internet run by #humanbeings.
