Call me boomer but I didn't know what e/acc meant so I looked it up. In case you're too embarrassed to ask, allow me: e/acc is short for “effective accelerationism" It's a techno-optimist view of the world that defends technological and economic progress as the morally right (and inevitable) choice to make in order to solve universal human problems and move us forward. It basically defends people who do things and rejects overregulation and “doomism”. Specially true for things like AI, space, etc so people push for these to evolve fast instead of putting on the breaks. created by @beffjezos, @bayeslord, @zestular and @creatine_cycle (I think) you're welcome

What if you took the core abstractions of Plan 9 from Bell Labs and put them in a WebAssembly module? progrium.xyz/blog/2025/spir…

This quote from Doug Engelbart sums it up well - computers should help people approach a problem space, understand it and find solutions. Particularly in the context of group work, I would argue our tools and practices regularly fail that brief

They buried the lede on this new study. It's not that exercise beats out SSRIs for depression treatment, but that *just* dancing has the largest effect of *any treatment* for depression. That's kind of beautiful.

So proud of @JenSugden and @chrssgdn for getting their first @Victoriocity book over the line and into pre-sales. Having seen a draft I can tell you this is a bonnet-gripping romp through mystery, intrigue and hilarity set in a bizarre-yet-plausible techno-Victorian age. **BUY**
