If you're wondering what, specifically, is in those documents, I've worked out what 7 (of 31) of them probably are here, and why Trump kept them (it's pretty bad).

Slowly going through the rest.

LA Times:

“According to the indictment, among the classified and top secret records were details on foreign nation's nuclear capabilities, as well as information regarding defense and weapons capabilities of both U.S. and foreign countries; U.S. nuclear programs, potential vulnerabilities of U.S. and allies to military attack; and plans for possible retaliation in response to an attack.”

If I weren't familiar with his other films I'd think it was going to be kind of twee, based on the trailer. The one for The Favourite was also cut pretty similarly

So, the inner loop of “What the Heck is happening with Reddit?” is this:

They appear to be getting all their ducks in a row to prepare for an IPO, which means shutting down all the 3rd parties that have (in Reddit’s view) been siphoning away advertisement eyeballs.

But

Reddit’s official app has been so garbage for so long for moderating, that many moderators relied on third party apps. For years.

The changes also rugpulled many other community developed anti-abuse efforts.

So, a boycott.

Smith understood that capitalists hate capitalism. They don't want to compete with one another, because that would interfere with their ability to raise the prices their customers pay and reduce the wages they pay their workers. Thus #PeterThiel's anticapitalist rallying cry, "competition is for losers," or #WarrenBuffett's extreme horniness for businesses with "wide, sustainable moats."

React is '13 tech designed to '08 constraints. Nothing about it is innovative in 2023; in fact, it's the slowest way to get functional-reactive frontend programming in the modern era, and I'm agog that the folks pitching it as "the future" seem to have no shame.

One of the constraints is that the team wanted to use an existing library of Web Components, but React made it hard. This is probably going to cause them to favour Preact for the bits of the team that want React-flavoured modern webdev.

It's astonishing how antiquated React is.

Someone asked me today if there was a case for using React in a new app that doesn't need to support IE.

I could not come up with a single reason to prefer it over Preact or (better yet) any of the modern reactive Web Components systems (FAST, Lit, Stencil, etc.).
