Doomsday prepping, except instead of doing it by yourself you do it with your neighbors, and instead of building a bunker you build a just, compassionate, and sustainable community.

@JessTheUnstill Yep. I've heard similar things from amputees and people with other obviously permanent disabilities. It makes me question the actual purpose of these "audits".

It's petty and disgusting and demonstrably counter-productive. Agencies that audit people on disability support absolutely never recover more than the cost of auditing.

It's all just for show and it's at the cost of autonomy and mental health for society's most vulnerable.

You know what actually has EXCELLENT ROI in terms of audits? Tax audits on the super wealthy.

Do you ever look at the heap of tooling you're forced to work with and wonder what problem it could possibly solve that would actually cost *more* time and productivity than trying to get each part of this loosely cobbled Frankenstein of disparate technologies to play nicely together already costs every day?

2/ Elie Mystal cont'd:

Kagan and KBJ are simply destroying this lawyer, Sidney Michael McColloch, arguing against the authority of the SEC.
None of the conservatives are jumping in to save him though. Their silence doesn't mean they're being convinced, I think it means they've already made their ruling

Kagan and KBJ are basically speaking their dissents from the bench.

Well, that's over. And by "that" I mean both the oral arguments and the ability of the SEC to enforce laws. :(

As part of our Secure by Design initiative, we're looking further "left of boom" to understand how security defects occur in the software manufacturing process and what the software manufacturers can do to eliminate recurring problems.

To that end, today we are launching a new series of products: Secure by Design Alerts. When we see a vulnerability or intrusion campaign that could have been reasonably avoided if the software manufacturer had aligned to secure by design principles, we’ll call it out.

such is #AmateurRadio operations, mostly random (which is a big part of why I enjoy it so) ;^} 📡

My Apple Music yearly summary is boring. I only use it when I'm in the car, so I don't spend much time browsing. I pick an album and repeat over several trips. Kelela released a new album and then I started exploring the DEVO albums I never got around to buying, so my top albums are:
1. Kelela - Raven
2. DEVO - Greatest Hits
3. Magnetic Fields - Get Lost
4. DEVO - New Traditionalists

I've started to do the same with the B-52s but I started too recently for it to show up yet
