When everyone is a developer — including all the vibe coders with their magic lamps — how do we get the AI genies to use web platform features instead of the React code they default to? I have a few suggestions in this week's Web Technology News (WTN), along with links to wisdom from around the web.

It’s #STFUfriday!

When cops ask you questions, ask for a lawyer and then STFU:

- I am not discussing how I’m doing or where I’m going.

- Am I free to leave?

- I am not answering any questions.

- If they ask to search anything: "I do not consent to a search."

- I want to speak to a lawyer.

Let’s talk about sandwiches and jurors. Do jurors have to talk about what they did? /🧵

@denschub
I see they also have a sketch of a large explosion on the moon.

Artwork like that always annoys me. I know I should ignore it.

@Daojoan TBH, it's incredible that shit even kinda sorta works at all even in the "normal" case. The amount of incrediblly major industries that only function because one unknown person does their thankless job correctly day in day out ... It's a lot.

It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if the entire global financial system would be at risk of total collapse if a single excel file in an old shared drive disappeared and couldn't be recovered.

"This week may go down as one of the worst in Donald Trump’s political and economic legacy. The so-called 'blue tsunami' that swept the nation on Tuesday left the Republican Party humiliated, and by Friday, the full scale of Trump’s economic wreckage became impossible to ignore. New data shows the economy teetering on collapse, and Trump’s response has only deepened the crisis, both materially and morally."

"Consumer confidence has cratered to its lowest level since the 1970s, according to the University of Michigan’s index. The numbers tell a grim story: record-low sentiment, record-high pessimism, and a staggering 62 percent of households now expecting unemployment to rise in the coming year—the highest since 1980. The reason is clear."

if I understand the data correctly:

- JBS USA Holdings is a subsidiary of JBS S.A., Brazilian-owned
- National Beef is majority owned (at least 81%) by Marfrig Global Foods, a Brazilian company.
- Tyson Foods, Inc. is U.S.-based
- Cargill Meat Solutions is U.S.-based (Cargill)

and together, these four companies “process” approximately 85% of all beef in the United States.

and the US gov is giving the Brazilian beef industry more money because… why again?

I'm tired of the dems do-nothing-say-nothing strategy; waiting, hoping that Rigged System Pro gets bad enough that we vote back in Rigged System Classic(tm). Then it's back to gaslighting the poor that the system is working for them.

#NoKings, sure. But also, I don't want #NoScrubs — Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, Nancy Pelosi, get the fuck out and let us get to work.

It's upsetting to watch #Democrats scramble to downplay Mamdani's victory by implying he only works as a leader in #NYC

As if people in Virginia, or the mid-west don't also want affordable housing and healthcare, or for billionaires to pay their fair share in taxes.

This is why so many of us on the left are mad at the Dems. They are obstructionists for wealthy interests, and if we don't vote for neoliberalism they're okay with #fascism

Their donors want anything but #democraticSocialism
