I love how they played such a big part in destroying peopleās attention spans TO engage in longer form contentā¦ only to have to enshittify their own platform to solve the problem that they helped create
I meanā¦. Depending what steps youāre taking with transition (particularly with medical transition), Iād argue Iām very much NOT ābiologically maleā.
When I think about all the physical changes that have happened to me, I canāt really attribute a lot about my body that feels or is functionally āmaleā.
Do I have a dick? Yeah. But does it work like a guys? No. Itās closer to a clit than anything else, for example.
Plus weāve had contract phones for decades without the manufacturer putting yet more dead switches in our devicesā¦ Do we really want more of this shit?
Say this stupid bullshit was true: youāre spending so much time baby minding the fucking thing that youāre not saving time?!? I donāt doubt that slop generators can code. But can they generate good code AND save you time? No.
I just don't agree with the sentiment about how FOSS devs need it because theyre usually one man shows.
I'm a FOSS dev, and yes, I'm a one gal show. But, I was doing this before AI and I'll be doing it the same way long after. I don't want a so called "tool" that's going to hallucinate security problems into my work.
What about the word "butch" in your view is exclusive to people with uterus's? Because doesn't that mean that trans women (by this definition) can only feel good in certain clothing? Is butchness defined entirely by people with uterus's enjoying men's clothing?
Iāll let you know if I do! Itās sad how hard it is to find stuff. The best place Iāve found so far is tumblr and a few of the hashtags there. But even then, itās hit and miss.
I wish I lived in a country where the internet wasnāt restricted, at least then Iād have Reddit. My VPN is blocked by Reddit. Though Iām planing on buying a cheap VPS to circumvent this issues
I think there's a missing point from the "Brain drain" part of the post:
Yes, brain drain is real when using these tools. But its brain drain and the fact that this gravy train bubble will pop soon. And once it does? Prices for these tools will skyrocket.
Even if the bubble doesn't pop, they'll have to increase prices to remain viable. At which point, you're dev infrastructure will be entirely dependent on AI slop, and you won't have developed any of the skills to cope without it. This is a slow motion car crash waiting to happen. If you outsource intelligence to private corps, you WILL get screwed.
This is exactly the kind of job Iām looking for. The software industry is full of the vilest exploiters. I donāt care if I donāt get paid a bunch, I just donāt wanna fuck up our planet or our people.
Itās just unfortunate that most tech companies are full of the worst people to walk the planet. (I am being a little hyperbolic here, but honestly Iām so sick of all the experiences ive had)
Worse yet are the brits who think we're better than the US and think theyre crazy. and like, sure. But, we literally colonised the states and started half this shit. Not to mention that we'd do exactly the same given half the chance, influence and resources.
When America coughs we catch the cold.
Edit: To be clear: i'm very well aware we colonised practically half the world too, and left unwavering damage in our wake. Even more recently too. My point is just, I feel like the UK has successfully whitewashed ourselves from the conversation about colonialism sometimes and it really frustrates me.

If you like funky Argentine funky indie pop? Bandalos Chinos are the dogs bollocks
Yes but, if you do that you donāt get to completely give away your thinking faculties to the magic misinformation machine š¤”
Thanks, I absolutely hate it.
Badge of fucking honor.

Definitely. While I agree with rolling back some of these tech first policies, I think we need to be focusing on HOW itās used.
I worry that disabled kids will be caught in the line of fire, too.

Itās a weird one for me, because it feels inevitable anyway, and Iām at the point where I just wanna get it over with š«
Pure vibesss!

Huge thanks for all your incredible work on this!!

This is just corp-speak for āwe will burn you the fuck outā
