  • "Browsing Geminispace with Alhena just got more interesting! Version 5.4.0 adds gradient backgrounds. Just like color emojis, animated gifs and favicons, this feature is optional. Also included are a few small bugs fixes and some nice improvements to the HTML to Gemtext converter." gemini://ultimatumlabs.com/gemlog/20251007.gmi

  • "That unix shell scripts read linewise is part of the trick. How the file is edited is also important; some programs use a rename(2) to move the update in place, which creates a new inode (possibly one with a different security context, which might be bad)." gemini://thrig.me/blog/2025/10/07/seek-seek-revolution.gmi

  • "For a year, the narrative has been “AI is taking our jobs.” But that’s not what’s actually happening. The real culprit behind our tenuous job market is old-fashioned economic uncertainty—and that might be the bigger problem." https://time.com/charter/7323579/the-real-reason-the-job-market-is-stagnating-and-how-to-respond/

Like the AI Influencer guy who recently posted about his last day at IBM but it turned out he was just moving to Red Hat. What a joke."

  • ""There are SO MANY VPs at IBM like this..." because IBM is a Marketing and Finance company FIRST and a technology company second. IBM prides itself on having access to the C-Suite offices of its current and future clients. IBM curates high-level employees that are successful in marketing to C-Suite personnel."

  • "She appears to be successful at that job and thus is rewarded - which the deleted-commenter seems to take offense to, using what they see as derogatory terms in an attempt to belittle the decision to have this person in that job. If they aren't making money for IBM, they won't be there for too long. Or maybe they will be...but that's IBM's decision to make, not the commenters."
