Today in History:

"On April 23, 1963, William L. Moore was found dead on U.S. Highway 11 near Attalla, Alabama—only four days shy of his 36th birthday... in the midst of a one-man civil rights march to Jackson, Mississippi... shot in the head with a .22-caliber rifle that was traced to Floyd Simpson, a white Alabamian. Mr. Simpson was arrested but never indicted for Mr. Moore's murder." https://calendar.eji.org/racial-injustice/apr/23

What went wrong with the inappropriately named Starship launch? One simple answer: Elon Musk. And NASA is relying on this clown for key parts of the Artemis mission?

So, in my #ruby days, I was all about making incredibly tiny gems that provided value with minimal code.

Okay, Google. You keep insisting that it's well above the freezing point in my area. So I ask you, oh great wizard whose name is a verb, why did I just slip on naturally occurring ice in my yard?

it's very funny to me when people say things like "I don't want to have a recommendation algorithm affect my timeline; I've tried that and it's terrible"

buddy

the number of people who have tried that with a non-hostile recommendation algorithm is probably in the double digits, across the whole world; it's effectively never even been attempted beyond the smallest of scales
