Kind of weird to see so many people in tech who either don't know who DHH is or hadn't clocked on his douchebro white supremacy despite him flagging his bigotry full mast for years

Dude was a full-on Howard Stern loving, misogynistic, self-described "alpha male" bullshit artist as early as 2009

And 37Signals first imploded in 2021 because they sided with a MAGA manager over their own staff, revealing they'd never actually followed any of the management advice they had spouted over the years

@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.

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.
