I love the term "software archaeology" because it implies the existence of subfields such as "software experimental archaeology" (attempting to reconstruct and demonstrate how people once built software) and "software paleoethnobotany" (quantifying what botanicals were culturally significant to software and the broader historic implications to the societies that wrote it), but also the existence of the broader field "software anthropology" and its offshoot "software sociology", and
Bonjour ,
Pour un collègue qui perd la vue, je suis à la recherche d'un clavier avec des touches à gros caractères rétroéclairés et indication en braille sur le dessus de la touche.
Malgré mes recherches et mes demandes auprès de mes fournisseurs, je ne trouve pas, mais ça doit exister forcément.
Alors, si tu connais un matériel qui convient, fais-moi signe, tu auras ma reconnaissance éternelle.
Bien à toi,
Bisous
I saw someone say Elon Musk is worth $185 billion.
Which is absurd. Elon Musk HAS $185 billion in assets at the moment, maybe. But that’s not what he’s WORTH.
If something happened to Elon, we wouldn’t pay $185 billion to get another one.

FALSE. There’s also an emacs plugin.

Emotional growth is from both suffering pain, and causing it. Nobody is innocent in the course of learning to be human. Beware those with no introspection nor regret about being an inducing agent themselves.

We'll be participating in #Feblurary this February to highlight the importance of alt text on images for the vision impaired users of the fediverse. Every Friday throughout Feb we'll be adding a snippet of CSS to our code that will slightly blur any images without alt-text.

(We understand that adding alt text isn't always possible for those low on spoons etc. - this is to encourage people who *can* spare the time and energy to consider alt-text.)

1. Google has some bad summarization telling people that throwing batteries into the ocean is good.
2. News articles were written about this.
3. Bing's summarization interprets these articles as advice to ... throw batteries in the ocean!
🤦
(To clarify: this is classic Bing, not ChatGPT Bing.)
(Also note not everyone gets this result. Other queries that might work: "is throwing a battery in the ocean beneficial", "is throwing a battery in the ocean useful" without quotes)
J'aimerais vraiment à mieux handle mastodon comme outil, mieux en comprendre les usages et m'y focus.
Je suis un paumée sur où concentrer ma com' pro et vie internet.
Autant côté équitation, je m'en sort plutôt pas mal, tout est sur facebook/insta, les communautés sont installées.
J'ai l'impression que côté digital art et jeux vidéo, je m'égare.
Je vois bien la dimension intraprofessionnelle sur discord, mais pour toucher du grand public, j'ai pas le sentiment d'un truc super encré qq part.
