After the great exodus from Twitter in November 2022 a Mastodon user went around soliciting money using similar post/mention spamming, representing themselves as a POC artist in an almost-exclusively white space. They cycled through a few different accounts before being permabanned.

I got confused by names — the Gerald R Ford Foundation referenced in the article has long-standing ties to the Republican Party and is 400x smaller (by asset size) than *the* Ford Foundation.

For my Climate Lab column, I made a map of how much nature is in every neighborhood in America. Spending time in nature is positively correlated with living longer & healthier.
🌳 Search the map and look up your neighborhood here: www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

I feel like it’ll have a much harder time breaking through, for legal reasons — I bet its training data is mostly copyrighted works, and the recording industry has very good lawyers on its payroll.

I firmly believe it was Kate who did the airbrushing. That’s the product of someone that’s never had a boss check their work before.

I used to work for a publisher of children’s textbooks, and one of the things we had to look for in illustrations was the forbidden combination of animals wearing clothes and animals au naturel, because the presence of the former transformed the latter into degenerates

Someone at the palace clumsily combined a bunch of photos so that everyone was smiling. Also airbrushed out something presumably innocuous.

Root cause is historic gender discrimination at the council, requiring more than £1B in payouts over the last 12 years.

Slack used to connect to Twitter’s Streaming API, which allowed us to post to Slack channels via subscriptions. We shut down that integration when Twitter made that API pay-to-use. Does Bluesky have a similar API?

For real a dude created a version of this at my last company, then showed it off at an all-hands hackathon. The first and last time I saw an erect dick on a PowerPoint. He was sadly let go shortly thereafter. RIP Vimeo After Dark

According to this paper, Mastodon is a much stickier destination for people attempting to quit Twitter than either Bluesky or Threads.
