We’re craving amber because it’s the single most human-friendly color technology can emit at night

What we’re really craving is a future where tech is aligned with our biology and respectful of our sensitivity

It’s a deeply vulnerable yearning for more attunement, warmth, and care emanating from the devices that make up our world

The world craves amber.

This was not a one-shot

It was a two-shot

I told Fable 5.2 to make the video of it's dreams, and 9 hours later:

If you point them to the right spots in chest / neck it also shakes and loosens all around the head and jaw. Bob&Brad guns are great. Yoga nidra helps (ally boothroyd on yt, downloaded by claude so it’s ad-free). Weleda arnica massage oil (amazon). Lavender/camomile tea. Hot water bottle. Sauna. Shaking. Moving more.

@claude’s refusal to do defensive cyber now seems to be the single biggest ai cyber risk of them all

So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and https://t.co/QlOXb3COq3 went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.

I guess you can now use your Mac on the light phone lol

want to see how the whole Paper Mono launch video was made?

everything is code but I didn't touch any of it

here we go 🔥

[Welf @_welf]

My WiFi connection here sucks, but here I am, sitting outside in Switzerland using my Mac (which is at home in Germany) on the @daylightco …

With good connections on both ends this will feel increasingly native, with all the benefits of the paper-like screen

[Welf @_welf]

@tomcxphillips @supermirror_app @daylightco This, it turns out, was too optimistic. It might take another week. Would you be interested in testing a beta version?

[Welf @_welf]

WiFi/network mirroring is now finally working almost flawlessly with @supermirror_app 3.0

Full keyboard and trackpad input handled, almost no latency

It’s so fun to use my Mac on the @daylightco, in a completely different room!!

[Welf @_welf]

@tomcxphillips @supermirror_app @daylightco Soon! Hopefully tomorrow

[Welf @_welf]

@ThisisMarcG @supermirror_app @daylightco To the dc1 :)
