I've spent most of the day trying to improve a web server's performance, and it's... better, but still having issues, and I don't know what else to do. PHP will just randomly decide to start taking forever to run something, until I restart the PHP-FPM service. It's frustrating. :/

My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse

She spent the whole morning performatively screaming at Congressmen, but this image of Bondi saying nothing and refusing to turn around will be the only real takeaway from her testimony today.

Considering the "whole system" is corrupt and only benefiting the already-rich... I'm fine with it being torn down.

No appointee of this administration even bothers to create the appearance of doing their job anymore, just openly serving as the president's personal apologist and attack dog. Completely illegitimate government
wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.

Court battle over surveillance footage at the Broadview ICE detention center reaches new levels of kafkaesque absurdity: The DOJ claimed it *couldn't afford* hard drives to put video footage on. Plaintiffs bought THE US GOVERNMENT hard drives. ICE "lost" them.

Government Loses Hard Drives It Was Supposed to Put ICE Detention Center Footage On
A Kafkaesque saga in which the government has failed to produce critical video footage has reached new levels of absurdity.

By this logic, red states are all parasites on the blue states. All red states consume more in tax dollars than they provide.
The US extracted the wealth from Puerto Rico through sugar/tobacco plantations for decades while paying farm laborers almost nothing. The Jones act has taxed Puerto Ricans to prop up a US shipping cartel for a century. The only parasites are the wealthy Americans extracting wealth from the island.

In the wake of a massive confirmation that the tech industry’s run by deranged pedophiles, not a single tech platform should have the balls to start demanding ID and enacting invasive policies.

Yet they continue. They’re the ones being outed as dangerous and we’re the ones being regulated.

I'm so enthralled with the whole Trump-Carney-Windsor-Detroit Gordie Howe bridge scandal. A billionaire who owns the only other bridge gets pissy and suddenly the fucking President is ranting on Truth Social about how Canada is evil. It's so funny. And so, so dumb. And corrupt. Can't forget corrupt.

Nice that Bluesky has added "drafts", but I still wish they'd:
- fix performing multiple searches in a row on iOS (right now I have to exit the app, or switch accounts)
- add the ability to turn off reposts from specific accounts

I don't understand the support Israel still enjoys from "centrists". No matter one thinks of Palestinians (most of whom are just trying to live their lives peacefully), this is insane. :/
“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.
Israel used weapons in Gaza that made thousands of Palestinians evaporate
US-made thermal weapons burning at 3,500C caused 2,842 people to "evaporate" in Gaza, Al Jazeera investigation finds.
