At least for me, displaying comments on patches in GitHub has been broken for weeks (and I tried several browsers, clearing cookies, etc). I know software is hard... but not *that* hard. This looks like there's just no one around anymore who gives a damn.

I'll be attending @bobkonf@discuss.systems Berlin tomorrow. If you're also going to be there and want to chat, let me know!

Calling code generated with a large language model 'clean room' is just silly. These are trained on everything, including the code you're claiming isn't in the room.

Codeberg is under a heavy, long-running DDoS attack. The Forgejo docs warn that if you allow open sign-ups, you will be inundated in spam. The modern internet is a shark pool, and unfortunately part of self-hosting is learning to wrestle sharks.

The thing with bubbles is that people have gotten impressively good at keeping them going. Even if built on pure nonsense, when there's a capital surplus a bubble that provides avenues for profitable speculation (and/or grifting) can just keep on running on the power of that alone. (Bitcoin still exists, for Christ's sake.)

So, Anthropic, you're saying someone just went and accessed your publicly available interface to train their language model? How outrageous! We need a new scary term—"distillation attack"—for this, because it's clearly something totally different from what you and your peers have been doing to, well, everything you could get your hands on.

'Morged' as a verb meaning something like 'provenance-washed via AI, turned into nonsense in the process' could be a useful piece of terminology in the coming years. I propose we adopt it.

"Digital sovereignty," if taken to mean we should switch from unaccountable American companies to unaccountable European companies, is largely missing the point of the problem. In a globalized economy the two are going to be functionally indistinguishable. What we need is non-profit digital infrastructure that's not beholden to the perversions of financialization.

Skated Wannsee to Grunewald Kuhhorn to Pfaueninsel this morning. Ice thick and mostly smooth, though there are occasional messy cracks and refrozen broken ice. Unfortunately the Havel further north is still ice free. Wonderful tour regardless. Saw a brave fox cross the river.
