I take in a lot of Mastodon posts, tech-focused videos, tech-focused articles, and the like. From comments made by all these people, I sometimes think I'm the only person who doesn't miss wired headphones for my smartphone. I switched to bluetooth headphones many years ago and have loved them. No cable to get tangled with a cane or leash, no juggling my phone and a cable when working out, no cable snagging on a branch or door handle. I love bluetooth headphones!

tip of the day: If you're looking for an assistive technology specialist at an institution for the blind, I don't hink it's a very good idea to have a driver's license as a requirement to be considered for the role. By enforcing such a requirement, you're essentially cutting off the people who would be the most capable of performing that particular job. Naturally, I will not be mentioning the name of the organization with this lackluster requirement.

> On August 5, 2025, Stein-Erik Soelberg (“Mr. Soelberg”) killed his mother and then stabbed himself to death. During the months prior, Mr. Soelberg spent hundreds of hours in conversations with OpenAI’s chatbot product, ChatGPT. During those conversations ChatGPT repeatedly told Mr. Soelberg that his family was surveilling him and directly encouraged a tragic end to his and his mother’s lives.

it's amazing, we've replaced the FBI with a machine that can push mentally ill people into violence. We no longer need to spend agent time radicalizing people into building bombs, buying weapons, etc.

Thank you OpenAI for helping us keep the government small :laugh:

Thank you 2025

Here I mention everything and everyone I am grateful to in 2025. Of course you too.
I am always and eternally grateful to you. That’s why I mentioned you on the exhibition flyer and now also on the blog article.

The entire analog section of my Mackie ProFX 12 V3 mixing console pans ever so slightly right, when the controls are dead-center. Nothing I've done, in as far as cleaning maintenance has fixed it, so I think its a more fundamental permanent problem that likely requires physical electronics skills beyond my own. So I can either go hunting for another small 12-channel console that does ultimately what I want, which is feed at least three stereo pairs, and one phantom-powered XLR to a pair of XLR-connected studio monitors, and provide buses of all this to/from the computer. Or I can simply do what drivers do when their cars pull to the right. Just keep the wheel a bit left. I can set all the pan controls on all the channel strips to what sounds like center, as opposed to what feels like center with the de-tent.

„Oficiálně – například v otevřených přiznáních velkých počítačových firem – dnes AI píše čtvrtinu až třetinu veškerého nově vznikajícího programového kódu. Ve skutečnosti to je pravděpodobně více, možná mnohem více, protože většina programátorů má pochopitelně motivaci nepřiznat, kolik práce za ně AI dělá,“ píše Petr Koubský: denikn.cz/1930468/umela-inteli…. Mně tahle cifra furt nesedí, vůbec. Kolik kódu zhruba generujete přes LLM? (Za případné sdílení díky.)

třeba u nás ve vývoji OS je to pořád málo, protože se stejně 70-80 % času tráví hledáním řešení a domluvou jako to udělat a jen 20-30 % psaním kódu. Problémy jsou u nás celkem komplexní a požadavky na optimalizaci velké. Ale v aplikačním vývoji v jasně zdokumentovaném prostředí (třeba různé BI aplikace na platformách MS) se dnes už téměř výhradně vibecoduje a prý to celkem funguje.
