And the literal message is also true, I walk a pathological amount for an Angeleno, anywhere within 2 miles I'm walking because it makes me feel real and the world feel real

if you're a programmer, you've surely heard the advice "do not roll your own crypto". dare i say that's even the default opinion amongst developers?

and if you can't trust yourself to do it, why you'd trust a bullshit machine to do any better, i cannot honestly say.

@trabern
One of the children we care for, received books from the Imagination Library for a year or so and they are still on his shelf.

We always pointed out to him who had given him those books.

He has gone from being barely intelligible, to one of the top students in his year at school. Reading is one of his top passions.

I guess trump has forgotten that most of the 9/11 hijackers came from Saudi Arabia, one of the few places on earth that are as religiously repressive as Iran.

@fromjason do this: set yourself up with all the radio feeds from La Isla. the best app for searching & tuning into radio feeds is RadioUpnp for Android.

WKAQ 580 Radio Reloj is the island’s OG 24/7 news and talk show radio station. just tune into and let it play in the background. let it be your “white” noise. that’s how you retrain your ear.

other feeds:

Radio Casa Pueblo
Salsoul
Radio Fidelity
Radio Isla
NotiUno
Radio UPR (our oldest radio station btw)

New activity today in legal efforts to prevent Trump from unlawfully interfering with mail-in voting.

A reminder of what Trump is attempting: he’s trying to use the USPS to control who gets absentee/mail-in ballots. This is to throttle vote-from-home, which for many people has meant requesting a ballot be mailed to them, which they then complete and return by hand or mail. Trump is trying to limit who receives ballots by mail. 1/ #LawFedi

The FDA just approved daraxonrasib, a breakthrough drug for advanced pancreatic cancer that doubles survival time.

This is huge: pancreatic cancer was once thought untreatable.

The researchers received a standing ovation when they presented the trial results, unheard of at scientific conferences.
