Just learned that the creator of the Material Theme for VS Code has retroactively relicensed it as a commercial product, and started threatening everyone he can find who is using the previous version which was Apache licensed

Totally unrelated, I just published my first VS Code extension

1/ I agree with this.

Yes, blanket Trump tariffs are likely to drive up prices for consumers, hurt US manufacturers, invite retaliation and if applied in North America disrupt well established NAFTA/USMCA supply chains.

But it may not be universally obvious, and Trump will have mitigation options.
Telling Mexican and Canadian governments to sit back and hope that the trade gods make it all OK when faced with Trump tariffs says more about a quasi-theological belief in the power of free trade than any serious appraisal of the current state of Canadian, Mexican or US politics

A failed president who incited a coup attempt and then was found liable of sexual assault and then was convicted of felonies won the popular vote and electoral college. I still haven’t seen a satisfactory explanation. Probably never will.

once spent 30 minutes methodically explaining to my parents that movies are not supposed to look like *that*.
For those going home to visit family this weekend:

• Samsung calls it Auto Motion Plus
• LG calls it TruMotion
• Sony calls it Motionflow
• Roku calls it Action Smoothing
• Google TV calls it Motion Enhancement
• Vizio calls it Smooth Motion Effect.

Another important piece I did, back in 2016, just for fun, when I was actually starting to work on a couple official #Overwatch short stories that got published later. I loved the game so much back then and it was an honor to work on the license!

Bluesky is an open and public social network, much like websites on the Internet itself. Websites can specify whether they consent to outside companies crawling their data with a robots.txt file, and we’re investigating a similar practice here.

A number of artists and creators have made their home on Bluesky, and we hear their concerns with other platforms training on their data. We do not use any of your content to train generative AI, and have no intention of doing so.
