This kind of shit is why I’m interested in alternative social networks and wrote FeoBlog.

Letting so much of our online activities be captured and controlled in for-profit walled gardens is a recipe for abuse.

Is this a @SnowpackJS bug or a @RollupJS bug? My #JavaScript bundler knowledge is a bit weak sooo... I just opened the bug against my own repository. 😅

The iTunes app on Windows is a bit of a joke. While I was waiting for it to load, I fished out my old Spotify password, logged in there, found the song I wanted, and started playing it.

Fossil fuel billionaires are profiting off this nightmare. CFOs called it a “jackpot.”

The reason GOP are scrambling to blame the Green New Deal is bc it’s the biggest legislative threat against the corrupt powers responsible for (& benefiting from) the suffering unfolding now.

A drilling company that operates in Texas and Louisiana told investors that the surge in natural gas prices — amid powerful winter storms — was giving it a major financial boost.

"Obviously, this week is like hitting the jackpot," CFO Roland Burns said.

@NfNitLoop ("Cody C. #BLM") replied to a tweet by @NfNitLoop:

I can also rename "foo" to "baz", and now I can access my data at "baz:bar". So the data does seem to be associated w/ that file somehow.

@NfNitLoop ("Cody C. #BLM") wrote:

Investigating some odd #Windows behavior. Colons are not, AFAIK, valid in file names. And yet, I can open a file called "foo:bar" and write to it from Python. Windows lists a 0-byte file "foo". But I can re-open "foo:bar" and read out my data.

Where can I read more about this?

TL;DR: Optimizing the issue count metric is dumb. Optimize for meaningful communication w/ users/devs.

@NfNitLoop ("Cody C. #BLM") replied to a tweet by @NfNitLoop:

"Pull Requests welcome". 😣

A better solution: Tag this bug as acknowledged and awaiting a PR. Then people who have interest/time to contribute to the project can easily find issues for which they can contribute!

Don't pretend the issue doesn't exist!

@NfNitLoop ("Cody C. #BLM") wrote:

Having a bot that comes and constantly closes bugs that people have taken time to report to your project seems to me... counterproductive. Unless you think maintaining an low issue count is important? But you're just hiding the issue(s) and frustrating your users.

I was fired once for posting that I was considering taking a job at another employer. (It was only public for 30 seconds -- long enough for Technorati to scrape it and cache the first sentence such that the CEO saw it.)

All the debate about the ~slippery slope~ of GC being fired for posting super bigoted things makes me think of all the ridiculous things people I know have been fired for. Like, one time my mom lost a job because her boss found out she used a sick day to stay home with a sick kid

You know what would really help me as a business owner? Universal health care.

The money we pay to subsidize employee health care is astronomical and grows every year. I'll happily pay higher taxes to cut out health insurance companies that make $40 billion a year in profit.

I go offline a few days and return to a GOP Gov blaming policies he hasn’t even implemented for his own failures.

Gov. Abbott doesn’t seem to have a grasp on his state, so here’s a reminder: Texas runs 80-90% on fossil fuels.

The real “deadly deal” is his failed leadership.

You know, despite what some in the media and the Democratic Party say, we don't need the Republican Party. We don't need a strong one, and we don't need a MAGA one. Nearly all of us would be better off if the GOP just folded its tent and walked away.

El Paso is the only Texas city that is part of the Western interconnect power grid. The rest of our state has its own outdated power grid thanks to officials trying to escape federal regulations. Thanks to them, 2.5 million Texans have no power
