Use correct terminology!

It's not "expresso," it's *espresso*

It's not "hone in," it's *home in*

It's not "irregardless," it's *regardless*

It's not "vaccine skeptical," it's *pro infectious diseases*

It's not "pro medical freedom about vaccines," it's *scientifically illiterate*

Another day of reminding everyone of Carl Sagan’s eerily accurate warning about the dangers of not being able to ask skeptical scientific questions to those in power or authority.

This might come as a complete surprise to all you americans out there but this behaviour makes me as a european not want to have anything to do with the US any more. I'm not even buying Heinz ketchup anymore.

What an absolute asshole.

So our CEO just told us to go back to the office. Full stop.

We should all just pretend like it's 2019 again apparently.

The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

This is the "stock prices can be manipulated" part.
I think it's a mistake to focus on stock prices in this moment. As we've seen, stock prices can be manipulated, and don't represent the real economy. If the stock market were to reverse course are we going to start singing this administration praises?

Choosing EU tech isn’t just practical, it’s a signal.
Every euro we spend shapes the future we’re building.

Next days more switches to come.

It is absolutely right that we do not need Greenland (or Canada) for natsec reasons because they are already close NATO allies. So the only rationale to turn the US into an aggressor in our own hemisphere is if you don’t plan on NATO being a US alliance in the future.

Here’s my ask of you today:

I want you to engage with EVERY article/post you see about Signalgate. Like, comment, share. Every one.

The reason why the media kept talking about Hillary’s emails was because every story & post about it got massive engagement.

Sound good?

The breach left military and intelligence experts asking the same questions as the public: Why would top U.S. officials use a free messaging app to discuss classified military plans?

Just stumbled on this brutal gutpunch of a video:

I've trained The Algorithm to show me stuff like this— randos working on projects and showing them to you? I've never seen this channel but I've seen a dozen like it. Dude fixes radios. The video is not about radios.

Most of what we call "tech" is about getting the right information into a database and trying to prevent the wrong person from reading or updating it.
