Avi Rappoport (avirr)

@inthehands@hachyderm.io Hopefully that gives floodwaters somewhere to go?

@Javvad@infosec.exchange Usually a fine is a price. In this case, it looks like they’re trying for an actual deterrent.

@inthehands@hachyderm.io One of the great blessings of open source — for a while — was that people could just start analyzing and writing code, and other people could evaluate them on what they actually did.

@woozle@toot.cat @HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social Sure if it’s a gay guy. But their people deserve every deference and assumption of innocence.

@integerpoet @justkwin @jamesthomson @Cdespinosa Metrowerks knew it because I did the attestation but I decided to forget immediately.

@sundogplanets Glorious, thank yoi for sharing

@inthehands Not all “Avi”s… In fact my parents left Israel after Jewish religious extremists stoned our car for driving on a holiday.

@sundogplanets I would be happy to edit, and I bet a graphic designer would like to help out.

@justkwin@toot.community Is that the Hornet?

@willsigg@mastodon.social Have you knocked on their door?

@unnmatched@mastodon.social @SecondUniverse@autistics.life Blocking this rude account

@jencmars@mastodon.art Gorgeous! I have a vine but the few butterflies seem to flitter, not rest

@sundogplanets@mastodon.social Re-learned the meaning, again

@timbray@cosocial.ca “But the weak link is the recent graduate students. The weak link is that if you are a developer building an AI data center, and you go to a bank for a construction loan, the bank will probably ask something like “well, can you get tenants to rent this computing power?” And you will say “oh yes people love computing power.” And the bank will say “okay, who are your anchor tenants?” And you will say “oh they haven’t even been founded yet; it will take us a year to build this data center and by then all the AI companies will be different.” And the bank will say “hmm, hmm.”

@neurovagrant@masto.deoan.org Because they were trying for perfect fidelity with Word.

@inthehands@hachyderm.io I once got a job by complaining about the default values and the placement of icons. I got to fix them!

@stefan I once heard an eminent economist say that libraries are socialist, as though it was a bad thing.

@inquiline Why privacy matters even if you’re not doing anything wrong

@woody@pleroma.pch.net That’s how you write a skeptical news story.

@ceejbot Well, half are below average.

@datum Kaiser Permanente has installed visible monitoring in the clinics I go to. It’s really reassuring

@BioMan@awful.systems Ah, thanks. I’d never seen the abbreviation and didn’t make the connection. That experiment was so badly done.

@woody@pleroma.pch.net China as an internet pacifist nation, my ass

@Cdespinosa@mastodon.social TLA collision!

@sassdawe@infosec.exchange @ludicity@mastodon.sprawl.club works for me at home, FWIW.

@nada@manganiello.eu Praising the groups who are most effective at serving Gazans would be very useful. Calling out the bad actors can be very fraught.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social @MisuseCase@twit.social a news source: https://fortune.com/2026/03/17/krafton-subnautica-chatgpt-delaware-court-ruling-ceo-reinstated/

@nfultz@awful.systems what HF incident? I did search

@OEWordhord@mastodon.social Lovely painting

@inthehands It used to be really rare so I’m still surprised by sharing it.

@mjg59@nondeterministic.computer It would have been impossible to have Web search without Unicode. Which still has value, despite LLMs

@paddington@mastodon.social Troubled Apple Computer…

@danwood@mastodon.cloud Have you tried Quinn @justkwin@toot.community ?

@Nonilex “Risky” in that we may change the court’s structure and accountability because they broke the constitution

@adapalmer@wandering.shop next, stopping clearcutting of British Columbia

@straphanger@urbanists.social Gee that sounds familiar

@sundogplanets@mastodon.social YES! I suggest you offer opinion pieces there, WSJ, USA Today, etc.

@ccohanlon@merveilles.town @Sardonicus@mastodon.social Gorgeous, love the spirals.

@timbray@cosocial.ca I’m not sure but I hope it’s disclosed

@GiftArticles@tomkahe.com @inthehands@hachyderm.io No surprise. But the link doesn’t go to the story

RE: https://mastodon.social/@j2bryson/116876820894152554 Poetic justice

@davidho@mastodon.world @roens@hachyderm.io We need a Windfall Profits Tax

@nickgully@mefi.social @sundogplanets@mastodon.social So they lied, and here’s some science to prove it. I’m deeply offended that they named it Earendil.

@kottke This aggregator is kinda overstating things, if you read the article or https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2026/03/31/us-forest-service-moving-headquarters-from-dc-to-utah/89411487007/

@futurebird@sauropods.win The paradox of toleration needing defense

@axel I’m pretty sure that this report, like the last one, ws written by an AI set to “snark”, the information seems useful

@chartier They’ve learned nothing in the past 30 years. My mind boggles.

@briankrebs@infosec.exchange Elvis in his prime, like, 1965? When Don was about 20: that tracks. He’s lost 60 years.

@franklinlopez@kolektiva.social “PGP is where usability goes to die” cracked me up! But that was back in the day when we had open SMTP relays and a whole lot fewer attacks
