low stakes posting today reminds me that 1) Facebook is for talking to people you know IRL but don’t like and 2) microblogging sites are for talking to people you don’t know but do like.

Sorry @spavel.bsky.social for dumping this thread into your replies. I guess it’s something I didn’t know I wanted to talk about
“Deterministic Automation” In complex software, especially legacy systems, we’re always trying to get to determinism. There’s a web of dependencies, services, blobs of software no one has touched for a decade.

The Trump administration is trying to cut off access to gender affirming care. I am with the transgender and nonbinary community in this moment of anger and fear. We cannot, and will not, let this stand.

Listen, I know it was in a major newspaper or something, but I have no need to read a bunch of neo-nazi gen zers.

The sandwich story is ultimate Brooks
I took my friend with only a high school degree to a fancy party and saw his face freeze up at the terminology being used by the elite. “Hebephile?” “Ephebophile?” I quickly asked him if he wanted to go somewhere else and he anxiously nodded yes and so we went to a Trump rally.

Someone on here predicted local police forces would start getting territorial. With this and the Minneapolis police, I wonder if that’s starting to happen. It’s not like these PD’s are particularly strong constitution defenders
NEW ORLEANS OFFICIALS: “We insist (Trump’s ICE goons) clearly ID themselves… there is no precedent for masked law enforcement… they have ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY… citizens are being racially profiled, chased, hunted… the chaos and lack of professionalism is ALARMING…”

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the KDE desktop environment is the nicest GUI I’ve seen. Blows both Windows and Mac out of the water. (Gnome also, I can’t stand gnome)

Wealth tax is really just a way to safeguard money that might be wasted on vanity projects like the Metaverse. We’re doing it for their own good

I have said before and will say again that it is such a loss that we no longer get covers of this caliber for fantasy books.
This art is by Jean-Léon Huens. These covers are for the Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander. They lit my imagination on fire as a kid.

How sure are we the Mamdani/Trump meeting wasn’t GenAI. It certainly feels like a hallucination

The most predictable part of Trump is that if someone is nice to his face he’ll be positive about them
Reporter to Trump: Would you feel comfortable living in NYC under a Mamdani mayoralty?
Trump: "I would. I really would. Especially after the meeting, absolutely."

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.
