@timbray As someone deeply embroiled in this so-called industry I am always shocked when someone else becomes SHOCKED, SHOCKED to discover that the entire business model of TicketBastard and AEG/AXS is scalping, literally nothing but scalping, that's their whole fucking deal. That's the entire business. Scalping their own tickets.

Trump regime now requires press to sign a document agreeing not to obtain or possess "unauthorized" information.

Anyone who agrees to this is not qualified to call himself or herself a journalist.

But I'm betting most Big Journalism orgs will go ahead and sign.

The FBI is reportedly trying to categorize trans people as “Nihilistic Violent Extremists” (NVEs).

They seem emboldened by the Kirk shooting despite the fact that it was not committed by a trans person.

If you’re cis, and especially if you’re cis and white, please step up.

Speak out. Protect trans people. This is a test to see if we’re willing to sacrifice the basic human rights of an entire group of people. We must say “no”.

Trans rights are human rights.

Dear Lazyweb, My jail.local has an "ignoreip" setting that is thousands of lines long, because reasons. I would like to put those lists of IP addresses in separate files instead of inlining them all in the same place. What's the easiest way...

Hakeem Jeffries voted for Charlie Kirk Day but still isn’t sure if he’ll endorse Zohran Mamdani. This is why the approval rating of the Democratic Party is lower than Trump’s or the GOP.

U.S. Investors, Trump Close In on TikTok Deal With China - WSJ:

"The arrangement, discussed by U.S. and Chinese negotiators in Madrid this week, would create a new U.S. entity to operate the app, with U.S. investors holding a roughly 80% stake and Chinese shareholders owning the rest, the people said."

I am the pond.

My thoughts are the fish swimming beneath the cattail shadows.

My fears are the frogs, floating weightless, their pointed faces parting the lily pads.

My hopes are the dragonflies, warming themselves on a willow branch, mirrored in the still water.

I can know each as a part of me, without pouring all my identity into the one who captures my shifting attention.

The fish. The frogs. The Dragonflies.

I claim them, but I am separate.

I am the pond.

@slightlyoff

After following you, Lawson, and Posnick for the better part of a decade, I engaged in my own wanton act of engineering this summer and published it:

https://github.com/localnerve/jam-build

(detailed, workboxjs based, offline first app template/reference)

I've been finding it impossible to get prospective employers or even other developers interested in these webdev ideas - They're not frameworkist.

I might as well be discussing the compositional qualities of feldspar.

I think, though, it's notable that this panel - handpicked to be made up entirely of vaccine "skeptics" - still didn't have the collective stomach to place more onerous restrictions on the availability of the COVID-19 vaccine (though they clearly are hostile to mass vaccination). It suggests that the political and regulatory dynamics here are fairly complex and fluid.

If you've been waiting until later in the season to get your annual COVID jab, maybe don't wait much longer, because availability might constrict as these recommendations get interpreted by states and by providers.

mattblaze@federate.social ("Matt Blaze") wrote:

As far as I can tell the CDC vaccine advisory panel today voted:

- NOT to require Rx for the COVID-19 vaccine (very close vote)

- BUT to require "consultation with a health care provider" to obtain the vaccine. Unclear if the administering pharmacist counts here or not.

- Availability remains the same as earlier recommendation : 65+ OR 6-64 with underlying risk factors.

Nothing is final until the (acting) CDC director approves.

It is honestly baffling to me, after all these years, there's still a large faction on the left who REFUSE to hold democrats accountable for anything; who still see this as a good vs. evil narrative where the Dems are going to save us.

Trump didn't win. Democrats lost.

@qgustavor FWIW I’ve had this happen before, and it was because the API in question defined the return type as non-nullable. To support partial responses, return types must be nullable so that GQL can insert a null where the data would go, and then put a corresponding error for that null in the errors array.

A GQL implementation might rightly be unable to give you a schema-compliant partial response to your query in that case, so it has to fail the whole response.

The last few months really highlight how much corporations prefer fascism to socialism, and why the democrats refuse to adopt a populist message even if it means losing.
