    @aaronpk at the last internet identity workshop I ran a session called "Your greatest standardization regret" and Token Exchange was brought up by a few people 🙂 @Vibronet pointed out the dangers of doing weird things with it

    Each company publishes their opinion on a technical standard and the machine generates the spec based on the consensus!!!

    It returned "200 OK" and returned a bearer token! This was exciting, we were generating some token and it was indexing the arbitrary VIN as the identifier.

    To make sure this wasn't related to our session JWT, we completely dropped the Authorization parameter and it still worked!

    You might have noticed you can't send NFTs on Coinbase Wallet iOS anymore. This is because Apple blocked our last app release until we disabled the feature. 🧵

    OK so @OpenAI's new #ChatGPT can basically just generate #AIart prompts. I asked a one-line question, and typed the answers verbatim straight into MidJourney and boom. Times are getting weird...🤯

    In 1951, Adelbert Ames created the mind-boggling ‘Ames Window’. It’s so effective that even when you know how it works you can’t break the illusion

    @cwebber ActivityPub is the protocol invented by Twitter's "Blue Sky" foundation. It works by appending posts to "the blockchain"— the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit.

    Kind of insane how there are a small number of expensive hyper-popular dense pre-car downtowns scattered through some rural areas and the policy response has been "we should never, ever build anything like this again"

    I'm calling @MerriamWebster out. "Gaslighting" was the 2016 word of the year, and trying to declare it the 2022 word of the year is, well, gaslighting. https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-commentary/gaslighting-word-year-mirriam-webster-gaslit-1234637682/

    I disagree. An algorithm is not intrinsically bad. As long as we understand that it represents the interests of whoever paid to have it constructed. I think an algorithm with human values that simply wanted to enrich experience is perfectly possible.

    I haven't seen one, probably because nobody has ever had a financial incentive to construct it.

    Mastodon would be a good place to try to make one.

    I'm going to be clear: I never saw - or imagined to see - a tech company *deliberately* creating such a toxic culture.

    This is coming from someone who worked at Uber during intense times. But we did not have random firings, a sense of zero job security, or comparable madness.

    This is amusing. Websites are struggling with the crawler requests from Fediverse instances when a new post propagates through the network. https://www.jwz.org/blog/2022/11/mastodon-stampede/

    Now that blogs and personal websites might see a revival, tons of people will have to learn the lessons us older website operators have learned during the first wave of social media when Twitter and Facebook got big.

    The main lesson being: don’t serve dynamic content directly without any cache layer.

    The fact that dudes go on a diet but they call it "biohacking" is so funny to me.

    Like if men started knitting they would call it "hyper threading" or "powertangling" or some shit
