3️⃣ Now it's a good time to ask Mr. Zelensky for evidence behind "where those bots were coming from"—which brought millions of views to clickbait outlets that didn't bother asking for proof.

Hope his claim wasn't based solely on social media influencers and a placebo effect.

People think I'm joking when I say that disinformation threatens democracy and sovereignty, and that this means that kinetic options should be on the table, even if ideally not used.

all those people who called me "irresponsible" for advocating air strikes against specific data centers better be eating crow.

I double-checked this on a couple of Xitter stat sites and it's true. Average views of the main AfD account dropped 90% and average engagement dropped by 60%. This is commercial social media for you: bots, damn bots and Russian bots.

Zojuist van incidentele gift naar vaste maandelijkse donatie gegaan. Ik kom de winter vanzelf wel door. Oekraïners niet.

In acht dagen hebben we, mede dankzij twee stichtingen die samen 48k doneren, inmiddels... € 218.000. Maar doel is een miljoen! Heb Cartman ontmoet, toen ik in Oost Oekraine met Vrienden v Oekraine. Zeer indrukwekkende man. Grappig ook. Hij studeerde in Utrecht. Vrijwillig bij het leger gegaan.

Software engineering could and should be done with the same care as any other type of engineering. This is a post in honor of Margaret Hamilton (and also a subtweet of all vibe-coders everywhere).

Screencap "“I fought to bring the software legitimacy so that it — and those building it — would be given its due respect, and thus I began to use the term ‘software engineering’ to distinguish it from hardware and other kinds of engineering, yet treat each type of engineering as part of the overall systems engineering process,” Hamilton told El Pais in 2018. “When I first started using this phrase, it was considered to be quite amusing. It was an ongoing joke for a long time. They liked to kid me about my radical ideas. Software eventually and necessarily gained the same respect as any other discipline.”" Source: https://news.mit.edu/2026/margaret-hamilton-computing-pioneer-dies-1007

De beste manier om hier te handelen is om aanmelden weer per gemeente mogelijk te maken in plaats van alleen in Ter Apel. Daarom walg ik zo van het idee dat de grenzen gesloten moeten worden. Dit is geen fysiek probleem, maar een bureaucratisch probleem dat op vluchtelingen wordt afgewenteld.

I get that people are scared of an uncertain future, and they want to be told that someone like Altman is powerful and special enough to see the future and shepherd them through it. Trusted media aren't supposed to encourage this.

I love it when a #creative person archives their work on the Internet Archive.

I began doing it years ago with my stories, and it's enriched my life.

Sell your #books.

Sell your #music.

Sell your art, vids, etc.

But also consider future generations.

Add your creations to the #InternetArchive.
