  • It’s especially disappointing given the mission statement of beehaw. You know, the one they require every user to read when signing up and write a statement about?

    … we grew increasingly upset with modern social media. Modern social media has become a breeding ground for hate speech, for trolls, and for bad behavior. We don’t want to recreate that environment. We want to explicitly make a nice little corner of the internet where we can hide from racist, sexist, ableist, colonialist, homophobic, transphobic, and other forms of hateful speech.








  • I’ve been playing through Powerwash Simulator on Gamepass recently, among other things. The game has just enough going on to keep you engaged while also being super zen (until you’re trying to find those last 6 things that are only 99% clean agggghhhhhhh). Progress goes at what seems like the perfect rate, you’re never spending long cleaning an individual item, yet there’s so much to clean that you get a pretty good sense of accomplishment from finally finishing a map.

    It’s pretty good for playing in the background too during useless wfh meetings while being able to stay fairly attentive




  • Yeah that’s one of the major issues I have with it. It gives people a way to take their responsibilities, delegate it to an AI, and wash their hands of the inevitable subpar result. Not even just in programming, I think over time we’re going to see more and more metrics replaced with AI scores and businesses escaping liability by blaming it on those AI decisions.

    Back in the realm of programming, I’m seeing more and more often people “saving time” by trying to use GPT to do the first 90% but then just not doing the last 90% at all that GPT couldn’t do.
