Probably fun defined in the ephemeral context. As-in it was "fun" to play in the context of the short form video attention span, social media brain rotted individual. Then it was thrown away and never played again. It's defin

I currently see a shit ton of work involved with "scaling" (aka cleaning up) the AI generated slop that was output in the past 2-3 years.

yet another security oriented company that doesn’t practice what they preach. On the flip side, there was allegedly no PII leaked. But this event is still a red flag as it means their internal ops are absolutely shit. So it’s another vendor

As if the new owners of twitter give a shit about its sustainability. It is all about capturing the platform to change the conversation around 2024 US presidential election cycle and US politics. It’s effectively become a political propagan

how is this any different from healthchecks.io or openstatus.dev? Seems I can't even selfhost your product either, which is a huge redflag in my book.

It surprises me to no end that people continue working for this lunatic. When this company was offering an early severance, I am surprised only 159 took the offer [1]. Per cited article, this was 8.4% of the total workforce. Apparently ther
