You know, I perhaps should be less optimistic about declaring software problems as "solved"… For the last two days our team was fighting with a time zone problem. Time zones! We've had them around for ages, surely by now we should know how to deal with them? RIght?

Troll/reply guy tried to get me to back down from my unequivocal statement that there's no evidence the 2020 election was stolen, claiming it's better to "meet people halfway" if I want to convince them.

No. As a researcher and educator, I believe in providing clear, accurate information.

The "evidence" that the election was stolen is made up bullshit. To call it anything else is a disservice.

If someone claims that 2+2=5, I'm not going to try to get them to compromise that it's 4.5.

I urge each one of you to join us in this endeavor. If not by purchasing the game, then by sharing this initiative with your network, or by contributing directly to trusted organizations working on the ground. The strength of our collective action can bring light to the darkest of times.

To those affected by the crisis in Gaza, I stand in solidarity with you, drawing strength from my own experiences and channeling it into hope for a brighter, peaceful future. (4/4)

Starting today and running until October 31, 2024, we will be donating the full revenue, 100%, from every purchase of our flagship game, Dr. Kobushi's Labyrinthine Laboratory, directly to the UNRWA's Gaza Emergency Appeal. We see this as an opportunity to leverage our platform and resources to provide tangible help. We are committed to transparency, and will publish donation reports.

It's with this personal perspective that I view the current humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Thousands of innocent children and civilians have lost their lives, homes have been reduced to rubble, and an entire community is struggling to find hope amid the chaos. While the scale and context may differ, the human suffering remains the same.

At Symbolic Software, we've decided to turn our pain into purpose. (2/4)

I've always believed that our personal experiences shape our professional journeys. Today, I'd like to share a part of my own story with you.

In 2006, during the Lebanon war, my entire neighborhood was carpet-bombed by Israel, rendering me and my family homeless. The trauma of war, the piercing pain of displacement, and the overwhelming feeling of helplessness are experiences I wouldn't wish on anyone. (1/4)

  1. Safari is the default browser on iOS. Defaults are powerful, especially if..

  2. You couldn't set a different default browser until iOS 14. That's 14 yrs of forcing links to always open in Safari, long enough that people may not even bother to switch browser anymore

  3. The #AppleBrowserBan - browsers on iOS are forced to use Apple's WebKit engine* and can't introduce web features unless Apple implements them

* Yes, all browsers on iOS are pretty much just Safari 📢

So it's pretty much official now: Google paid Apple $18B in 2021, pbbly more in the yrs after that.

And not a single journalists offers thoughts on why Apple might be in the position to ask for this much money.

Well I can (offer some thoughts, that is)

I'm annoyed by the rants about HTTP/2 being "bad" for having one (already mitigated) issue, as if we foolishly left a better protocol behind.
HTTP/1 had a long history of request smuggling attacks due to its deceptively tricky to parse syntax. H/1 got hit by slow loris DoS. H/1 pipelining is forever unreliable — browser vendors have given up on it after years of trying, and getting silent data corruption. The "simple" protocol has created complexity of domain sharding and cookieless domains.

27. The Stone Tape (1972). I didn't have a theme for this week but this is about a haunted house in England, like The Uninvited, and it's a movie from the 1970s about exploring the unknown via technology, like The Kirlian Witness. Cool images but this would be way better without the occasional anti-Japanese racist jags some of the side characters go on.
