this is good. public servers can be joined without an invite link, so they are really closer to forums than closed, private spaces. forums are all indexed on google, and discords should be too. discord has been a nightmare for niche info accessibility
Discord is about to put your public messages on Google Discord will start making messages from Discoverable public servers searchable on Google and other search engines from mid-December. The feature is ON by default in most regions, but you can opt out: User Settings → Data & Privacy → turn off “Show my message content from Discoverable channels on web pages.” In the EU, UK, Canada, Brazil, Australia and South Korea, it will be OFF by default. Private servers, DMs and group DMs are not included. Usernames and avatars won’t appear alongside indexed messages.

if you think this is bad, you are either misunderstanding what a “public server” is, misunderstanding the role of a search engine, or both

i’m suddenly very interested in cryptology math news because i uh. had encryption-shaped psychosis in 2016, i built a weird way to do encryption based on uh. human somatic memory + digital cues? i’ve been decrypting it ever since, it’s not nonsense curious if that’s been done

Super interesting thread on autism
Replying to @DanseurTabby
That's the tail end of the spectrum. At the lighter end there's dependence on an idiosyncratic lexicon (maybe more than one) for understanding and communicating an inner state. "I'm upset," is too raw, direct, unreachable. "I feel like Marge when Homer gave her the bowling ball"

Hey so this is the best commercial created in my lifetime and it's not close
How is the internet less private than in 2006, when the whole family shared one computer? Back then, the internet was weird, personal, and all of ours. So, we got your favorite meme legends back together to say it louder: What happened to the internet? 1/3

every field of inquiry is shaped by the type of person who would choose to engage in that field of inquiry to begin with this has downstream implications for everything, but especially for AI

Now is a good time to change passwords that you've reused or that have appeared in data breaches, get a password manager, turn on 2FA with an authenticator app, and turn on automatic updates. This weekend. Carve out some time and do it today.

if you care deeply about the human intention, craft, and experience that goes into art why can't you go one post without mentioning AI

“While the act of creation is inherently satisfying, there’s a danger: one might find satisfaction in the labor itself and mistakenly believe that a high-quality piece of work has been created,” he said. very insightful comment from miyamoto
Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto, the acclaimed designer behind Super Mario and Zelda, has explained why he believes generative AI won’t make human creativity obsolete. "There will always be a role left for us to play." videogameschronicle.com/news…
