Curious to see how it plays out with Patrick O’Donovan insisting that he’s going to push one through. https://www.kfmradio.com/news/national/oireachtas-media-committe-wont-recommend-social-media-ban-for-under-16s/13 May 2026 09:05 +0000at://did:plc:ksjfbda7262bbqmuoly54lww/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlpx5djxvs2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/aaron.bsky.team/post/3mllggan4sk2wLast week I was on a planned vacation, which ended up being good timing given a wave of dogpiling directed at me. One positive difference from similar moments in the past is that our detection systems for coordinated harassment and abusive pile-ons are improving. So I don't need to see any of it.11 May 2026 13:55 +0000at://did:plc:ksjfbda7262bbqmuoly54lww/app.bsky.feed.post/3mllggan4sk2whttps://bsky.app/profile/aaron.bsky.team/post/3mkzpfjohak2pTbh part of why people hate decaf is the lack of caffeine - but also because it’s usually badly done with heavy chemicals. I used to drink terrible quality decaf as I switched to low caffeine options and when the first smell is more like burnt rubber, you aren’t doing yourself any favours.04 May 2026 12:47 +0000at://did:plc:ksjfbda7262bbqmuoly54lww/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkzpfjohak2phttps://bsky.app/profile/aaron.bsky.team/post/3mku75vu6g223Super sleep deprived. Ground some decaf beans manually, threw them in the aeropress that folks on bluesky convinced me to buy, did not measure the water or the immersion time. This is by far the best cup of coffee that I have likely made in months. I have no idea how to reproduce.02 May 2026 08:14 +0000at://did:plc:ksjfbda7262bbqmuoly54lww/app.bsky.feed.post/3mku75vu6g223https://bsky.app/profile/aaron.bsky.team/post/3mkrqrqnvl22nI was recently doing a podcast about Canadian workforce skills. Some interesting questions came up about a report looking at AI sovereignty but Jaxson Khan. It looks at multiple dimensions such as cultural as well as the usual technical stack independence. aicompetitiveness.ca https://aicompetitiveness.ca/01 May 2026 08:51 +0000at://did:plc:ksjfbda7262bbqmuoly54lww/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkrqrqnvl22nhttps://bsky.app/profile/aaron.bsky.team/post/3mknmf63f4c2nI feel so bad for rightscon. They keep valiantly trying to host in the global south only to get screwed over by the global south. Brutal challenge to find safe spaces to host a massive human rights conference. https://www.404media.co/rightscon-human-rights-conference-suddenly-postponed/29 Apr 2026 17:22 +0000at://did:plc:ksjfbda7262bbqmuoly54lww/app.bsky.feed.post/3mknmf63f4c2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/aaron.bsky.team/post/3mjxg3q2onc2jThat is incredibly cool.

This genuinely comes from no other purpose than trying to understand what it was, but I took it too far. #warhammer10 Apr 2026 18:41 +0000at://did:plc:ksjfbda7262bbqmuoly54lww/app.bsky.feed.post/3mj5xy6ufcc2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/aaron.bsky.team/post/3mj5jg5qdck2vIn the early days of the app it was always ‘but you are targeting my identity and are biased’ when the content was usually repeated death threats.
