There are good things and bad things about the new generation of AI, but one of the most terrible is the ability to impersonate humans. Let's not do this.
Counterfeit people are more dangerous than counterfeit money. They are tools for disinformation and manipulation. They destroy trust.
Let's not allow them. futurism.com/the-byte/facebook…

Jimmy Carter’s idealism and humility left a lasting imprint on American life
Former US president Jimmy Carter, a man defined by his humility and idealism, has died at 100.
Many US presidents come from modest upbringings. Born in Plains, Georgia, Jimmy Carter’s Depression-era childhood was no exception. His home lacked running water and electricity, while his rural high school lacked a 12th grade.
What made Carter exceptional was the degree to which these humble beginnings would influence his life, most notably his time as America’s 39th president from 1977-1981.
Jimmy Carter’s idealism and humility left a lasting imprint on American life
The former US president was widely criticised for his time in government, but his work on leaving office came to exemplify what a post-presidential life could entail.The Conversation

Today, I discovered that in #Rails 8, the command for setting up a fresh database has changed from `db:migrate` to `db:prepare`. This caught me off guard since it wasn’t mentioned in the [Rails 8.0 release notes](guides.rubyonrails.org/v8.0/8_…).
Thankfully, I found it documented in the [ActiveRecord CHANGELOG](github.com/rails/rails/blob/8-…).
However, testing migrations now requires `rails db:migrate:reset`, which feels far from intuitive.

There's a lot I don't know yet, but no sense in delaying with what I do know – hi, my name is Robin and I'm trans.
I'll be going by Robin Riley, and using they/them pronouns for the foreseeable future. And it's going to take ✨ time ✨ to update my info everywhere, so please bear with me.

#Cloudflare
Of course there needs to be a campaign against oppressive regimes but all Tor users worldwide are under DoS attack by Cloudflare. We have lost access to ½ the web and no 2024 efforts counter the loss of availability.
Also in 2024: archive.org went down for a day or so, at which moment all Tor users also lost access to archived Cloudflare sites.
