Maybe twitter thought that your account was used as a proxy for nitter? I think it's really annoying that you need to be logged in to see most posts.

Remember your 3-2-1. Personally, I still like these defcon sound bites, even though I've heard them plenty of times. They are part of the atmosphere that the stream wants to create.

Stories like these make me sad when I think about chat control and age verification. Kids in the future may no longer be allowed to talk to random helpful strangers on the internet about computers and other technical topics, because apparen

It establishes that operating systems have the necessary infrastructure to reveal information about their users in a standardized way to other systems on the internet. Once that is established, it is easier for politicians to push for newer

Yes. However, the economy is also bad due to other factors like unnecessary wars. Things can still get worse outside of the AI bubble.

AI might help you with building the thing that you want. But AI can't help you with finding out what is worthwhile wanting. See also Rich Hickey's remarks on AI: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLDwbhuNvZo

Unlikely. Maybe I'm overly optimistic, but I think it's fairly likely that the RAM situation will have sorted itself out in a few years. Adding reference counting to the JVM and .NET would also take considerable time. It makes mor

The "voluntary" scanning is still mass surveillance of private messages. We as technologist tend to rely on technical methods to protect our private data. But non-technical people should also enjoy confidential communication, even
