I'm not saying Boeing murdered the whistleblowers. I'm saying try not to run a company such that people think you MIGHT have.

If kids are "catching gender dysphoria" because of social media, it's because visibility matters. People see others, it is discussed, and they ... recognize some aspect of themselves in it.

That's it. One of the reasons I recognized I was queer early on was because... my mom had gay and lesbian friends and the visibility gave me a name for something.

THIS. IS. A. GOOD. THING.

I assume now that Apple has said they would support RCS, that Google will kill the team for it and create another messaging option.

but there isn’t. there absolutely isn’t. not with the current system in place.

third party candidates are vainglorious spoilers.

i have no thoughts on apple's vr announcement other than: 1) if you think $3500 is expensive, you've never worked in industrial design/prototyping/govt/etc, and this is easily 10-100x cheaper. 2) like many things with apple, this is just the tip of the very pointy spear.

Rumor but from a source… Broadcom is telling all H1B engineers in VMWare that they have to either move “home” or be laid off without severance. Effective nearly immediately.

Pure cruelty.

Can we please call all these far right people what they are? Terrorists, hoping to use violence, or at least the threat of violence, to achieve political gains.

Say it again: THEY. ARE. TERRORISTS.

I don’t know how much clearer they can transmit fascism. It’s brutally clear and yes, your friends and family that support them at this point are fascists. https://press.coop/@NPR/112361945767154783

I’d be curious of tips from anyone on how they use #orgmode to manage notes when there’s lots of media like images.

As someone who was quite involved in UNIX and BSD in the early and mid 1990s, it's really exhausting watching the massive Linux-washing that goes on about how "Linux was the first open source OS".

It wasn't even the first from northern Europe.
