@brandon Big mood. I've been messing more with LoRa based mesh networks, but some groups that focus on internet censorship won't consider something that doesn't work with existing consumer hardware which is pretty frustrating.
@agowa338 All of these! Check out the protocols in @agregore for example. Also been looking into #Reticulum a lot lately

@nasser IMO this speaks more to LLMs not actually being able to replace humans long term. For some stuff maybe, but they fundamentally can't do the things experienced programmers do. 🤷 Even IBM is starting to hire juniors again cause they realized the golden goose is BS

@nasser It's definitely the lower skilled developers that get the most excited by it. But then they get trapped in that they don't actually develop the skills they need.
@thejikz @futurebird Say more! I would have thought stick bugs would be easier to wrangle given their size
Reflect Orbital wants to destroy the night sky to deliver "sunlight as a service". SpaceX wants to destroy Low Earth Orbit to launch one million "AI datacentres"
The only way to formally protest these two ideas is to file a comment with the US FCC, which is horribly complicated, but the American Astronomical Society has detailed instructions posted here: https://aas.org/posts/advocacy/2026/02/how-submit-comments-satellite-applications-fcc
Comments due March 6 for SpaceX and March 9 for Reflect Orbital. Write! Write! Write!
One of the interns decided to interview devs across my org about how/whether they use AI for development and what they think about it. They shared without names but with titles.
I noticed that the more senior a dev is, the more they’re likely to have low opinion of AI and/or only use it for very narrow purposes. More junior devs tend to say things like “it makes me a better dev”
@BigTittyBimbo Hearty sharting 💪💪
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
Yap with me and send me cool links relating to my interests. 👍
