History is the study of human mess. And that mess matters. Because we’re not going to navigate the 21st century with clean models. The next pandemics, climate shocks, political collapses—they’re not going to play by the rules of probability theory.
You know the type. MIT-trained, Substack-fluent, AI-curious. They can quote Hume, dabble in Bayesianism, and confidently wield phrases like "regression discontinuity" and "effective optimization landscape" in casual conversation.
Wonder if there's also a lack/distrust of empathy at work too?

Both cats were curled up in a ball, acting like they were asleep. When I looked closer though, they both had their eyes open. Were they pretending? Were they playing tricks on us? We may never know.

Agents could make it easier and cheaper for criminals to hack systems at scale. We need to be ready.
by Rhiannon Williams, April 4, 2025
"Agents are the talk of the AI industry—they’re capable of planning, reasoning, and executing complex tasks like scheduling meetings, ordering groceries, or even taking over your computer to change settings on your behalf. But the same sophisticated abilities that make agents helpful assistants could also make them powerful tools for conducting cyberattacks. They could readily be used to identify vulnerable targets, hijack their systems, and steal valuable data from unsuspecting victims.
"At present, cybercriminals are not deploying AI agents to hack at scale. But researchers have demonstrated that agents are capable of executing complex attacks (Anthropic, for example, observed its Claude LLM successfully replicating an attack designed to steal sensitive information), and cybersecurity experts warn that we should expect to start seeing these types of attacks spilling over into the real world."
if there are any #GNOME designers/artists (gnomes? gnome heads? gnomish sourcerers? gnaphic gnesigners?) seeing this, does it comply with the HIG in your opinion? what would you suggest changing if not?
the cheesecrater icon uses the standard rustacean image, which doesn't have that smooth, rounded look the HIG usually suggests, but i lack the skill to make a "blobby" version of ferris.
the crates browser, with its triple-pane layout (third screenshot), is the most complicated of them, but it's based on the design of the crates.io website, which displays the readme alongside a right-aligned "metadata" pane.
(also: either it's very hard to write descriptive alt text for UI design screenshots, or i am very bad at it. possibly both.)
would you believe me if i told you that getting an icon to appear in this dropdown menu involved several hours of reading GTK forum posts, documentation, and examples in both rust and C, with more than one null pointer dereference along the way
i took a break from working on cheesecrater, and i've since implemented user preferences, including a mostly finished dark mode. adwaita makes it really easy!
