There's shit in our water, so take a rip off this tailpipe.

i post a lot of linkedin screenshots because i think its important to know that, as dumb as you think video game executives, analysts and other old boys club members are, they're actually even dumber.

as a christian, one thing i love about trump is that he explicitly rejects the teachings of jesus

Yesterday I heard that weird fact that in the continental US, you can never be more than 115 miles from a McDonalds. And now I’m wondering what are those points in the country that fit within the 110-115 miles range.

This patch flexes so hard I'm surprised it doesn't rip the fabric. #avgeek

If you’re so new to tech that you didn’t know Microsoft owns these things then you’re also too new to tech to have a negative impression of Microsoft as a developer.

American politics is when one party gets to trash an entire state or city and the other party gets asked what they have to do to heal division.

Kennedy contributed more towards the current state of the nation than 99.9999% of the population. This is the America he worked for decades to create.

What are your thoughts on changelog data in source files? I'm thinking of putting change notes directly in the comments of source code files for quick reference information, as a way to record changes without a dependency on git specific mechanisms.

Gutted at the news that Kaleb Horton is gone. Kaleb was a brilliant writer, of course, but he was also a gifted photographer. Years ago I encouraged him to sell his pieces. His work was so good, I told him, and people should see it. Here are some of his beautiful shots.

Those private "weather services"? They all depend on the National Weather Service. Not one can take up the slack.

I think one of the reasons people like watching #SlowHorses is they watch all the characters and say, "Yeah, my job sucks, but it doesn't suck THAT much."

NEW: Neon, an app that pays you to record your calls so your audio can be used to train AI, and already rose to the top #5 free apps on Apple's App Store, has gone offline after a security lapse. We found the app exposed users' phone numbers, call recordings, and text transcripts of those calls.

A programmer told me today that he has a CI build test that searches the code for instances of "print" and his initials, so he avoids committing debug statements.

It’s almost like the podcast grifters exploiting lonely, bitter, excessively online men have a vested interest in keeping them that way.

Periodic reminder that "Abolish ICE" is the moderate position Cops are great

in addition to alarming detail on what DOGE is doing with Social Security data, the Senate Dems report also gives a hilarious peek inside DOGE's workspace at GSA www.hsgac.senate.gov/wp-content/u...

Did some heavy reading last night.

Translation: The stupid economic policies of the idiot here in the White House are destroying American farmers, but bcuz American farmers overwhelmingly voted for the idiot in the White House, we’re having conversations with the idiot on how best to bail out American farmers.

"This used to be the best job I’ve ever had, the best environment I’ve ever had, the best culture I’ve ever had—and they fucking ruined it. I will never ever forget how much they ruined it."

This is not a romance. Nobody is "in love" with apps. There are no A.I. boyfriends. You cannot "date" a chatbot. Accepting this framing and treating it as real is tech-industry propaganda. slate.com/technology/2...

When you're installing a UNIX-ish OS on new Dell hardware, the first thing you have to do is go into the BIOS and drop that "Windows Boot Manager" bullshit.

[standing in line to watch Green Day perform 45 minutes of musical criticism of the Bush administration] gosh I hope there are no politics at this rock festival

Listened to some Nine Inch Nails this morning on the drive to work.

I came across this news story about VHS tapes in 1986 ... that is also about streaming services in 2025

This is like those two white chicks who drove to a Starbucks in a car with blacked out plates, spray painted “BLM” on the side of the building, and then drove away.

folks like this not only ensure losing the race they're running in, they ensure losing lots of other races by becoming a vacuum for money that could be spent on viable candidates

After listening to about a dozen first-hand accounts, I’ve published what I know about the RubyGems takeover.

One of the best reasons to support 404 Media, aside from it being a journalist owned tech news site, is actual change happens because of their reporting.

Had a SUPER fun conversation on @LogRocket about the huge npm supply chain attacks we've seen over the past 2 months I walked through the whole sorry saga from beginning to end. Don't miss it!

Trump's brain is now incoherently flitting from topic to topic as the UN sits listening him to complete silence
