Github is not the end.
The lifecycle of a pull request.
You have three options to contribute to a repository:
- Paste a patch on the web UI
- Compare two local branches (you’ll see this only if you’re a collaborator on the repo)
- Compare across forks

„Great Reset“ am Kahlenberg: Wie Orbáns Rechte eine Wiener Uni kapern.
Das Orbán-treue MCC wird mit Putins Öl-Millionen finanziert – und hat eine Wiener Privatuni übernommen. Auch eine Ex-ÖVP-Ministerin steckt drin. Jetzt kommt raus: Das MCC verbreitet Verschwörungsparolen am äußersten rechten Rand.

With Carrots & Sticks ~ Can the browser handle web security?

AI and the Uncertain Future of Work.
If artificial intelligence is going to doom us, I suspect it will be more mundane than humanity getting outcompeted by a race of smart machines. It will be instead: nefarious actors using large scale deployments of AI agents to foment division, sowing propaganda and FUD, followed by reactive policies that strip rights and engender mistrust; algorithmically-refined ads masquerading as entertainment that soak up our precious time and attention, with none left for boredom, creativity, introspection, or critical thought; convincing AI fakes that deceive us–both willfully, exacerbating the social isolation epidemic, and unwillfully, feeding the $X00B/year scam industry. A common theme of these and similar problems is technology moving faster than our collective ability to adapt to it.
Relevant: AI coding mandates are driving developers to the brink.
