Testing to see if this post will show up in my following feed, since it seems to have been vanished.
Yes, and the solution here is to put some responsibility on the user for the content that they are viewing. Web2 companies are publishers putting volunteered content in front of eyeballs. Web3 companies are distancing themselves from the content by having the users host the content.

Embrace pronoia, which is the opposite of paranoia. Choose to believe that the entire universe is conspiring behind your back to make you a success.

new: federal agents have targeted rideshare drivers at o'hare on at least ten separate days since october 10.

in some cases, agents returned to abduct drivers multiple times in a single day, taking as many as ten to 20 people each time.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.

But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

I tried switching to Cursor from my usual ChatGPT copy/paste flow last night -- It mangled my codebase and then demanded I pay for premium.

Reportedly this event happened Oct 7, but we're just seeing the video now.
NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.

Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.

She was later released with NO CHARGE.

A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

Responsibility for posts needs to be offshored to the network graph. The product department should not be taking responsibility for the crap people post. Delete the delete button, let the posts live with the users. "you don't like that post? why did you replicate it then."

Option 5. "TypeScript is the worst timeline."? "Only Severed workers write TypeScript?" calling all creative answers. 🌋
Am I the only one who found the options to this question confusing? None of these is consistent with the TS39 "Type Annotations" (aka "Types as Comments") proposal. Erasable types should be _ignored_ (like comments) at runtime.

Also… please take the survey! 🚀
