I'm aggressively trying to de-stress.
one way I do that is by imagining Bill Gates up on that desk, in that famous photo, desperately trying to please a Russian dominatrix:
(female voice, unseen behind camera)
"Oh vat a vonderful boy you are, William! Now let me forward dis to Moscova and then we give you Big reward, da?"
"Anything you say, Melania!"

IANAL but... US Supreme Court today announced they declined to hear a case about AI. The USPTO office had declared previously that anything that came out of one of these GenAI tools in response to a prompt (like LLMs, like Claude or ChatGPT or Gemini) could NOT be copyrighted. Whether text, code, art, etc.
The case was a challenge to that. since SCOTUS declined, it means the USPTO ruling stands. which means all you fuckers who have used GenAI to give you text/code/art are fucked. lolololol
a win for human labor talent and our professional craft. BOOYA!
They are automated ripoff machines anyway. Fuck em
might be a poison pill too for compatibility with GPL or some other FOSS licenses. hopefully more legal analysis comes out soon on downstream implications

lots of youngsters today will be wishing they knew about how to do CI/CD the old fashioned way: JUST SOME UNIX SHELL SCRIPTS, BYOTCHES.

spammer/phisher "MastodonNotification" is making rounds today. beware. they show up in your Notifs inbox and then sometimes before you can report them they delete the toot, so theres nothing for your report to link to, so Mastodon Android app refuses to let you report them
so far from:
mstdn.ca
mstdn.party
blackmail threats and they use an anonymizing link shortener service

The Individual has tried to raise the price of electricity, batteries, solar and wind.
As with his attacks on Venezula and Iran before, he is once again trying to raise the world price of oil, but now by his strongest attempt yet.
Who benefits? Putin's Russia. Saudis. Texas and the US fossil fuel industry... YET AGAIN.
Ignore his rhetoric. Means nothing. Observe and weigh only his deeds, and their physical, logical consequences. Always, only those.
