New plan this week because I keep failing blood tests (in that they fail to get a successful draw) because my veins are hard for folks. Hydrating constantly so at least we can't say that my lack of hydration is an issue.

idk so far my experience in the "liberal haven" that is california is that yes there are a ton of liberals, but I have a hard time finding leftists and y'all massively lack solidarity that I've been able to find easily on the east coast and genuinely I find it horrifying

I think a year given the current growth and limitations we're seeing between new models - essentially walls are being hit and they keep claiming they're better while they aren't eventually people who believe in this stuff are going to notice

I don't have to care about duolingo anymore right and I can close my account and they can keep up with their rapid decline - I just really wanted to finish my German course because I was so close and now I've done it.

I really do feel like most people need to spend a little time, even one day a year, doing basic service in their own community like feeding people.
Kinda goes double if you do other movement work. Serve at a kitchen, pack a local pantry, hand out toiletries or warming kits. Resets your brain.

Bad actors will SQL inject you, but they will also find ways to take your “good faith” features and abuse them: location services, community tagging, voting, auto-moderating with mass reporting.

Anyway I think people building social media platforms need to work with folks that know how to red team them not just from the typical engineering standpoint, but from the network abuse pattern standpoint and I hate how much knowledge I have of this just from existing on something awful.

Someone recently asked my github had no messaging feature and I laughed, because we’ve built it and scraped it internally like 3 times.

I worked on one of them because I was like if we build this I want it to be anti-abuse focused.
