Per my policies, I need to ban every employee and contractor of Anthropic Inc from ever contributing code to any of my projects. Anyone have a list?

Any project that requires a Developer Certificate of Origin or similar should be doing this, because Anthropic is making tools that explicitly lie about the origin of patches to free software projects.

Trending due to Cory Doctorow boosting it I have to notice.

This is some techrights level character assassination and it's trending on mastodon right now. (Also it's largely AI generated.)

planning my trip home tomorrow by #EV --

Stopping in a city park for 20 minutes. Or maybe 30, there is a lake and trails.
Stopping in Asheville long enough to get some good cheese.
Lunch in a cafe downtown in a college town

Vs the uncivilized alternative:

Stopping um, somewhere to pee and because $3.50/gallon is somehow cheap now.
Stopping um, somewhere for fast food and oh is it $4/gallon now?
Arriving 1 hour early tho! Time to catch up on news about the war.

About done with making my youthful mistakes I think.

(I turn 50 next month.)

successful piano tipping, which was tricky given the size of the room it's in

disassembly will need to wait for another day, blocked by several issues including not having a big enough screwdriver bit

My I naturalist brained sis

I wanted to perform Annea Lockwood's "Piano Burning", but it is impossible to get it out of the little room it was built into.

I already de-stringed it, which is the worst bit, besides the sheer barbarians at the gates feeling of it all

I remember implementing automatic hard wrap in BASIC, I was probably about 12 years old. The Helix bug may get to that age before they do it lol.

helix still mostly fine but I am really missing automatic hard wrap and had to resort to this macro to limp along "@mip:reflow<ret><esc>;"

I had been meaning to try hx anyway, and also I had been wanting to use haskell-language-server which requires some horrible mess of plugins in vim and just works in hx

really a pity about vim, it does look like they either fixed or introduced a security hole with one of the commits, so I hope that works out for them. I used vim for about 25 years, emacs briefly before that.

I do remarkably little editor configuration or fancy stuff despite using it all day, but anyway yesterday I discovered vim is getting vibe-coded commits and today I have switched to a pretty stock helix which looks like it will be fine.
