<p>Huh, this is an incident now?<p>Our github->slack subscription breaks every few months, they never acknowledged it before. At this point we have a doc with the list of repos and settings, whenever someone notices that things are awfully quiet we just go through it and resubscribe.</p>

<p>I've experienced the following sequence more than once at work, and I remain baffled by it each time:<p>- Receive a huge vibecoded PR for complicated new feature.<p>- Complain that this needs some design doc to figure out the right approach first.<p>- Author says no need for design doc, easier to have vibed implementation and discuss the concrete code instead of abstract document.<p>- I disagree (obviously), but review the PR with feedback along the lines: this entire approach is flawed, throw this out and start over.<p>- Author gets defensive, says "but this is already working and ready, let's just merge".<p>- I tell them there is no chance in hell this is getting merged. They go sulk to their manager that I'm not interested in helping them launch.</p>

<p>Why is it that every gemini/gopher discussion throws out the baby with the bathwater?<p>> Chrome alone controls roughly 73% of global desktop browser market share.<p>> More and more, the webdevs of the world test and develop for Chrome only.<p>> It doesn't need to be this way. https:// is not the only way to connect and interface with the Internet<p>These are completely unrelated concepts! Google/Chrome doesn't control HTTP nor HTTPS. There is nothing wrong with the protocols, you can just make your website plaintext file if you like.</p>

<p>Completely different things.<p>C2PA is basically a signature that serves to prove it came from certain source.<p>It's useful in case you want to prove you got an image from AI model to someone who doesn't believe you.<p>It's trivially removable and not useful against people trying to pass off generated images as real.</p>

<p>Yes. Instead of having to figure out the bone angles one by one you can drag eg a finger and the rest will follow as much as constraints allow.</p>
