Zohran Mamdani earned the plurality of Jewish votes in NYC.

Donald Trump says Jews in NYC who vote for Mamdani are "stupid."

Guess who Andrew Cuomo, his billionaire donors, Corporate Democrats, Corporate Media, the ADL, & MAGA politicians are going to claim is antisemitic?

They're desperate to convince you this is a culture war so they can distract you from the class war as they rob you blind.

Vote Zohran Mamdani for NYC mayor. Let's begin a new chapter nationwide.

New post from @rain on fun IPv6 API Surprises.

https://sunshowers.io/posts/socketaddrv6-not-roundtrip/

At Oxide we use IPv6 quite heavily -- the management network, the layer where I work, doesn't even support IPv4. We also use IPv6 _strangely,_ and in particular, a lot of our tools wind up needing to be scope-ID aware. An awful lot of ipv6 code is _not_ scope-ID aware. (When you're attempting to use link-local addressing _and you're the switch_ it matters a lot which interface packets go out!)

But even we don't use the flow-label bits (so far). I think they're headed for the bin of misfeatures.

These fake and debunked bomb threats in NJ are why we tell people to let go of old sentimental notions of voting on "Election Day" and vote early by mail, dropbox, or in person if you can, but early.

We live in a different world now, where authoritarians will attempt these vote-suppressing scare tactics.

Don't let them intimidate you. Go vote!

Hello Fediverse -- let's have an #introduction and introduce ourselves :3

We're dotmeow, a queer-run community project to register the gTLD .meow. But not only for meows and giggles! The profits of this gTLD shall go to community causes, turning every domain into queer community support, especially focusing on trans issues.

While we've already passed the ICANN Application Support Program, we're just now launching our web & social media presence(s). So while there's not much to see here yet, follow us if you're interested in registering a .meow domain and potentially supporting us in the way -- crowdfunding TBA soon.

Outside of announcements we want to engage with the fediverse as regular fedizens and won't spam you with meaningless ads <3

We deserve better than the old-guard democrats and their rag newspapers.

Hey fellow LoRa meshers 👋

I've recently started working on a little open-source mesh project and I'm curious to hear what got you into LoRa and mesh networking in the first place?

Tell me what you’re building!

Trying out Zen Browser and I don't immediately hate it. It has a few things I disagree with (for example, downplaying the URL actually makes a browser less usable, it's a complexity inherent to the web and obfuscating it makes people less safe) but overall seems to work nicely

`fetch()` required `Promise`, and *that* required getting TC39 to move on something we'd first proposed in 2010, but got blank looks about. But we tried and tried again, and finally it worked. Having DOM in the wings, ready to implement what the language wouldn't (which wouldn't give us `async`/`await`), allowed us to win the day in 2012/2013.

This makes me feel some guilt about the other parts of the DOM we haven't upgraded, but seeing the impact of `fetch()` makes me want to try again.

slightlyoff@toot.cafe ("Alex Russell") wrote:

Doing this sort of work well often requires being willing to see past the current yes/no, and trying to string together a set of partial wins into something better. That helps us identify what's truly must-have, and what might have to wait for compatible future additions. `async`/`await` were in that second bucket for too long, too. And `AbortController` shows that it's possible to work around logjammed SDOs, too.

slightlyoff@toot.cafe ("Alex Russell") wrote:

To be very clear, this sort of thing is never a slam-dunk; if it ever looks that way, it's only in the rear-view mirror. There was a strong argument from some Node-ish corners that error-first callbacks were all you'd ever need. As they predicted (and I feared), TC39 has absolutely shit the bed on cancellation (we had to throw it overboard to get Promises to move in 2013), leaving important problems on the field. But we always had a backup: the DOM.

A couple of weeks ago I was asked by some junior folks why they should consider platform work – implicit in their question, the care and feeding of old, stable platforms – and this sort of impact is one if the things I cited.

We designed `fetch()` (and Promises, and the second version of `async`/`await`) as part of the Service Worker design. We couldn't block the thread, so programming it needed an upgrade, but knew it would reverberate. And it has. I'm so glad.
