zrrk This is where I write stuff sometimes.

The Pinlist

This is the Pinlist: a list of things I read and wanted to put somewhere, along with quick thoughts on them. Should I read something that I have a lot of thoughts on, I'll (try to) make a dedicated blog post.

2024-12-31 => The /ai 'manifesto' by Damola Morenikeji Thoughts: Similar to slashpages, I need to write a blog post about my stance on AI. You can already guess what it is given the emoji I use for the 'AI' tag there ;) Tags: 🙅‍♂️ AI
2024-12-31 => Slash Pages - A guide to common pages you can add to your website by Robb Knight Thoughts: Great inspiration - I want to implement some of these here, and especially the '/uses' part which sounds rad. Tags: ✍️ Blogs & blogging
2024-12-31 => What UNIX Cost Us by Benno Rice Thoughts: A great talk! I especially like the hints on to how to "constructively" react to technology like systemd. Tags: 🐧 Linux
2024-12-30 => Declare your AIndependence: block AI bots, scrapers and crawlers with a single click by Cloudflare (Alex Bocharov, Santiago Vargas, Adam Martinetti, Reid Tatoris, Carlos Azevedo) Thoughts: It's sad that this is required... One more reason to use Cloudflare, as much as I'd prefer not having to. Hey, at least it's free (until it's not, but y'know). Tags: 🙅‍♂️ AI
2024-12-30 => AI scrapers cause massive traffic on forums and downtimes for humans by Dennis Schubert - Title was reworded Thoughts: AI companies are a net loss for society: what a surprise! Sad, but unfortunately not surprising. Tags: 🙅‍♂️ AI
