Doing my annual update of my CV and it's so hard to fit all the stuff I've worked on in the past 12 years onto just a few pages. 💀
Web Brutalism but with Global User Styles to make it all look nice again
Easing back into daily computer touching in anticipation of going back to work on Monday.
The constant threat of violence against the poor under capitalism is a great way to enable unethical behavior in those that hoard money. Why bother threatening violence yourself when you can just thrown in a rope to the drowning and threaten to cut it off if they don't dance for you. Fish in a barrelx
It seems like a good way to make a thing successful is to turn it into a borderline cult, but IMO manipulating people to do stuff for your ends is unethical.
So many crypto adjacent things act like cults. A lot of language trying to foster identity with the projecr / others as an oppositional out group. Lots of information control around what to focus on. And lastly draining vulnerable people of their funds and energy once they're sucked in.

Hey so I'm sure ya'll have seen the hubbub about it, but in case you haven't:
The Honey extension actively steals affiliate revenue from the creators that you use links from whenever you search for coupons with them.
It does this by replacing the affiliate code your creator uses with their own affiliate code.
Also the company is owned by PayPal.
This movie would have been so much better as a cartoon in general. Seeing a grown ass woman say "Sonic did nothing wrong" with no goof factor like it's real drama deals me massive cringe damage. She played her role great but the tone of the movie is all over the place
The live action sonic the hedgehog movies would be so much better without the asshole cop character. Like he's so unlikeable and so unfunny and interrupts the flow of sonic and robotnik doing their thing.

@dansup Might be relevant for loops, tiktok open sourced its recommendation algo. https://github.com/bytedance/monolith
@gyro personally I'm just kinda pissed that the setting lacks style. The cults aren't wearing cool robes with funky sigils and the cities are sorely lacking neon and funky hair styles. 😿
It's pretty cool how we're in the timeline where corporations are buying nuclear reactors to feed their machine gods as humanity dives into global extinction

This feeling of alienation, it is a kind of overwhelming feeling of drowning in something that keeps greeting you like it knows you, but really it can't see you at all. Instead it seeks to reshape you into what it expects you to be with with its gaze.
These things probably make me more upset than I ought to let them.
But it's hard not to see it this way.
Neat, lattice based cryptography visualized.
