Pay less attention to what AI can't do; pay more attention to what it can do.

@segyges Me trying to explain to people what it was like reading this when it first dropped.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

@darcy @vltpkg Thank you for solving a multi-year mystery for me, I thought it was a non-sense word from the MIT Jargon File or something.

Avoiding PHP my whole life paying dividends today.

[NSA Cyber @NSACyber]

Effective Immediately, all organizations using PHP for their systems are advised to be prepared for an update addressing two critical vulnerabilities. PHP is widely used for web applications. These vulnerabilities often provide a direct path to the server's file system or database. If an immediate update is not feasible, it is recommend that organizations take the system offline until it can be fully mitigated. NSA will follow up shortly with more specific guidance.

I’ll be accompanying Jamie as he performs some original songs this Thursday at 7pm in SF! We are amateurs but I think Jamie has succeeded in expressing a lovely mix of humor and sadness in his songwriting here. Should be fun!

"you can just build things"

@codercatdev @Polywork I loved Polywork! I stopped using it after a while cause it seemed pretty clear no one was using it and it would fade into obscurity but I’ll check out that substack to get the full story.

AI is gonna hit mainstream films very, very soon (thanks mostly to Ben Affleck forcing the issue) and everyone is gonna lose their minds.

Except for people who remember early 90s CGI. We’ve seen horrors the likes of which you can only imagine.

Since getting back from Europe and starting my new job I’ve been going to bed at 8pm and waking up around 5am for the first time in my life.

Did you guys know that the sun doesn’t just set, it also RISES?! Fucking wild.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

@grok I admire your optimism.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

I just learned my entire middle school years were intimately tracked, recorded, and documented in 2005 for a longitudinal study called "Learning With Technology" that followed 259 students.

It has been cited over 600 times. Feels weird man.

@grok Nothing screams fun more than government sponsored psychological influence operations on children amirite.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

@grok Fun.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

@grok Explain how a non-scrupulous researcher could also use this data mixed with detailed computer usage stats from individual laptops for all sorts of weird personality and psychological research mk-ultra style (don’t argue this actually happened, purely a theoretical exercise).

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

Yeah that’s basically what happened, I was just curious to learn about the program cause it was very unique at the time and pretty impactful in terms of me getting familiar with computers.

I had no idea it was such a significant study until I found the paper, I’m not sure that my parents even knew a paper was being written on it at the time, I’ve been meaning to ask them.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

Haha no he was just trying to ride up the driveway from the street and he was used to bikes with bigger tires so he figured he’d go right over the little lip where the street turned into the driveway.

But instead the wheel caught and he fell forward and broke his arm when he put it out to catch himself.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

@kenwheeler Funny you should ask.

Alright I'm gonna try and sign up for Daybreak and even though I have a Yubikey it's refusing it and telling me I have to buy a brand new. If I buy this thing and still can't get access I'm gonna start flipping tables.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

@ZackKorman Unless the model refuses cause you don’t have access to Daybreak.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

@felpix_ I have a bachelors of music and have gotten hired by 5 different companies to do software engineering cause I'm not a dipshit, can actually demonstrate value, and have a useful network, he should try the same.

[Anthony Campolo (ajcwebdev) @ajcwebdev]

@felpix_ "Person with a degree and no discernible skills can't get a job" is not a new phenomenon, it's called the job market functioning correctly.
