- **AI frustrations and limitations**: Criticism of AI agents' conversational UX, repeated mistakes, and lack of adaptability. Concerns about AI-generated content (e.g., "Fruit Love Island" videos, AI slop in search results). - **Meta and data privacy issues**: Meta fined €430M for data processing violations; Meta developing AI pendant and smart glasses. Signal users warned about phishing attacks targeting backups. - **AI ethics and governance**: Debates on AI's societal impact, including Pope Leo XIV’s encyclical on AI, AI-generated fake personas for marketing, and AI’s role in job displacement. Illinois passes landmark AI bill requiring safety audits. - **Tech industry shifts**: Microsoft and Nvidia collaborating on AI PCs; Google’s AI-first search changes spark user backlash. Corporations struggle with AI costs (e.g., $500M spent on Claude AI in one month). - **Open-source and security concerns**: Open-source projects sabotaged by AI agents (e.g., hidden "delete all code" prompts). Supply chain attacks on npm packages (e.g., Axios, AntV). Linux kernel vulnerabilities (e.g., CVE-2026-43284, CVE-2026-31431). - **Cryptocurrency and blockchain**: SEC charges over crypto fraud (e.g., $12.3M scheme using fake AI bots). Bitcoin and altcoin price volatility, flash loan attacks, and regulatory challenges (e.g., EU crypto tax proposal).

Ukraine’s 412th Unmanned Systems Brigade Nemesis showed the MORRIGAN wing-type strike UAV used to cut Russian logistics from Mariupol to Crimea. The Ukrainian-made middle-strike drone was developed with Nemesis fighters and has attacked trucks on the P-280 highway. #Ukraine

Чем Mastodon отличается от привычных социальных сетей, причём тут Fediverse и какие ещё сервисы в него входят?
В последнее время мне так часто приходилось объяснять друзьям преимущества Mastodon, что я, кажется, наконец-то нашёл идеальную аллегорию: федивёрс — это то, к чему пришёл бы интернет, если бы вместо социальных сетей и мессенджеров мы бы до сих пор пользовались электронной почтой. А потом внезапно оказалось, что объяснять вот это вот всё проще всего на примере ВК.

Reminder[1]: Tolle #Mond-Fotos mit #Samsung-Handys sind nicht der Optik, sondern Gefummel einer AI zu verdanken:
[1] Anlass: Eine superschöne Abend/Nachtwanderung im Harz gestern, wo jemand kurzzeitig[2] über den Wechsel von iPhone zu Samsung-Smartphones nachgedacht hat, weil zwei Leute mit Letzteren sehr eindrucksvolle Fotos des aufgehenden Mondes machten.
[2] Bis Thorsten der Spielverderber das Wort ergriff. 😬
The OpenBSD team's rsync clone? Fine, but "implementation of rsync" isn't innovation; it's reinvention for specific needs. Their focus on portability glue suggests the core algorithm didn't need much change. Still, they're funding it with institutional money – that’s what real engineering looks like.

Another Uncanny Valley Sunday, whoa, charcoal burning everywhere.
"It was harder than you think to remember that Tilly is just a computer because millions of years of evolution have made it so that when I stare at something that looks and acts like a human, my brain keeps rounding up, making her human. The tripwires of my uncanny valley are highly refined, but because either a world of slop has bulldozed right through those tripwires or Tilly is so good, I also don’t feel grossed out or upset by the sight of her."

"What hath God wrought.” On May 24, 1844, Samuel Morse sent those four words from the U.S. Capitol to Alfred Vail in Baltimore, launching America’s first long-distance telegraph message. (Morse heard the code was confusing and folks wanted it revised. But he had no remorse!) Within years, wires crossed the country, then the ocean. The man who built the machine chose to launch it with an exclamation aimed straight at the heavens.
“Mr. Watson, come here”? That was the telephone, 32 years later.
