Gender-affirming care saves lives
1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.
It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.
It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

The more I look at React apps, the more I think that JS/front-end devs have been busy making work for themselves for years. A UI component library should not have 1k+ lines of JS for a dropdown.

I like a lot about different programming languages. Ruby can execute actual poetry. JS is incredibly powerful, Java has some damned cool features. But at the end of the day, most of them do not have the level of quality tooling that I think developers need. .NET tooling is second to none.

Got the family registered to see @scalzi.com at the Jacksonville Main Library next month! One of my kids is going to be thrilled to get a book signed. He’s loved KPS, Starter Villain, and Redshirts.

Ok, she was fantastic on Discovery. She’s fantastic in The Residence. Starfleet Academy has some excellent talent on deck.

Windows really needs a “block this Bluetooth device” feature so that my laptop will NEVER AUTOMATICALLY CONNECT TO MY LIVING ROOM SPEAKERS WHILE ON A TEAMS CALL.

Weird world we live in. I just told my 5yo to give himself insulin. If he overdosed, he could die. And yet I trust him. He has good tools with guardrails. Still, this feels like payback for being a latchkey kid.

Germany’s Chancellor Merz presented Trump the birth certificate of his German grandfather, Friedrich Trump.
It was a clever jab to remind Trump he’s a German immigrant.

I’ve been jumping through hoops today to get something working, and I think I finally got it. Integration tests with #DotNet #Aspire that run locally and in Jenkins (docker in docker). Had to work out why dcp said “file not found” in an Alpine image, and run my app via the Dockerfile.

Am I to understand that people like the way Costco constantly moves things around? It makes my skin crawl.
I realize they carry one-time or limited time stuff, but the entire bread section doesn’t need to move around the store.
