Yesterday’s Bluesky outage made it really difficult to promote my interview with Eurosky about providing an alternative to Bluesky’s infrastructure, so youtu.be/FgTemyBFpgc
I am optimistic that in the future we will see, for those users who want that, an automatic and permanent, complete bridge and #interoperability between #Bluesky and #Mastodon after our discussion today at the #IJF26 in #Perugia with Rose Wang Felix Hlatky Björn Staschen. See Video of our […]
Important point here from Risky Business on why NIST ending its work of generating CVSS scores for CVEs "opens the door for a lot of infosec drama." risky.biz/risky-bullet...
I never understand why anyone tells people to “learn AI” - the whole damn pitch of generative AI is that it saves you from having to have any kind of expertise

Authors are slamming Reese Witherspoon for telling followers 'it's time to learn A.I.'
This is the line the Commission is taking. Thomas Regnier at today's midday briefing: "Why did we decide to have it open source? To be transparent and to allow for... developers, to test it, to play with it, to potentially help us to improve it... That open source code will be constantly updated..."

This is… good? I mean, isn’t this the kind of timely scrutiny you want from open source?
Yesterday Bluesky went down. @eurosky.social servers worked but we couldn't communicate as we don't have an app.
Our next step is to build everything we need to operate without Bluesky. We're raising €100,000 to build a European app backend supporting 100k+ users.
A lot of digital sovereignity is technical and boring. For non-tech people the distinction between platforms and infrastructure feels a lot like eating your veggies.
That is why I am happy @eurosky.social somehow finds a way of making this exciting.
Check out this interview! 👇🏼

Felix, CEO of Mastodon, and I hope to collaborate more. Mastodon has wide adoption in Europe and 8k communities (servers) running independently. The customization they give communities is inspiring to me. Public squares should be a gathering place for you to discover cozier corners/communities.
"selling off cielo24’s 13-year digital footprint—every Slack joke, every Jira ticket, emails documenting internal victories or frustrations sitting in employees’ multi-terabyte Google Drives—as training data for the next generation of AI. For that, cielo24 received “hundreds of thousands of dollars”
Justin Hendrix@justinhendrix.bsky.social
"Defunct startups are being liquidated for their Slack archives, Jira tickets, and email threads—operational exhaust that AI labs now treat as premium training data."
"Just like the 'one rogue reporter' defence initially protected the News of the World in the early days of the phone hacking scandal, 'Mandelson lied' did the same for Starmer."
For no particular reason thinking about Dylan Moran on Berlusconi "So fucking crooked he sleeps on a spiral staircase! So corrupt, every time he smiles an angel gets gonorrhoea! He’s had so many face-lifts, his face has moved to the top of his head, you have to get on a step-ladder to watch him lie"
Nine Inch Noize is a lot of fun, as was the Peel It Back tour, but the NIN Tron soundtrack was meh and I really want the band to return to the experimental road it started going down with Bad Witch
