Dimon has a brand new hit with an essay on Finland that recycles the rhetoric Putin used before ordering the invasion of Ukraine. It means infinitely less coming from Medvedev, but it’s all worrying, even as a trial balloon or an alcohol-fueled screed, I don’t like it. https://meduza.io/en/feature/2025/09/09/we-have-every-legal-right

Re-posting due to current events.

The secret language of coders, part N of many. Today: "npm"

A table mapping "npm" to "possible meaning": a package manager for javascript a public registry for javascript packages using pm the package manager a company owned by GitHub owned by Microsoft that owns pm the registry for use with pm the package manager much like git a command you run by pasting random invocations from Stackoverflow into your terminal one of the reasons your prod systems call out to the internet regularly what you mirror from the internet (without any additional checks) so that your prod systems don't call out to the internet like a box of chocolates: you never know what you're gonna get a surprisingly effective method to accidentally take down half the internet a dictionary of supply-chain attack vectors "signed packages" - what's that? infosec for "right here, there's your problem" one of the many reasons I drink

A good definition for "legacy code" is any code that you're afraid to change or update because no one at your company knows how it works anymore and there's no automated test coverage to tell you if your changes break it.

AI is only capable of generating instant legacy code. At scale.

Hey everyone,

Today @joynewacc and I had video chats over Signal with four people from Gaza who, along with their families, are struggling to survive Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.

I’d like to welcome them all to Gaza Verified.

Please give them a warm welcome to the fediverse, follow them, and help their fundraisers if you can. And please share this so others can do the same.

Thank you 💕

This is me — standing in front of what’s left of a home.
My name is Sakher, and I’m from Gaza.
I’m trying to raise money to help evacuate my family and relatives who are still trapped in northern Gaza, where daily massacres continue and there’s no food, no clean water, no safety.

Yesterday we were displaced from our home under heavy bombardment, leaving behind all our memories 💔.
We fled with our children, bullets piercing around us, saving only our lives.
Now we have no shelter, no clothes, no tent—nothing.
Please help us get basic necessities to survive 🙏. Every contribution, no matter how small, can save our lives ❤️.

Announcing Reciprocate, a Sweet Solution for Making Your HTML Web Components Reactive

Have you ever been chipping away on vanilla #WebComponents when you began to wonder “hey waitaminute…how do I make it so when I set this #JavaScript property, the equivalent #HTML attribute is updated? And if I set this attribute, the equivalent property is updated? Or when either is updated, my component will re-render?! Where are the APIs for this stuff??”

No.

So much no.

These people are asking us to judge the AT protocol on its own merits, entirely divorced from Blue Sky, the company founded and funded by fascists. These are the "keep politics out of tech" people who wan to believe that any tech can be apolitical.

Blue Sky must be destroyed.

As for the purportedly-apolitical and untainted AT protocol, I must again refer to the sage Jules Winnfield: "Sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie, but I'll never know."
