Excited to discover what the lowest bidder has in store for fans! www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/...

No special treatment for the comfort of bigots, please. Cambridge Mayor should apologize to the kid.

We [sometimes] ditched the kool-aid up until a little over a decade ago. We've sent Dem senators to D.C. in the past. I'm crossing my fingers hoping we can do so again come Nov. Letlow is a maga disgrace. This state doesn't need more of that.

Happy birthday to the second-best song about the boys.

Floor-crosser Marilyn Gladu “accidentally” leaves conversion therapy pamphlets around Liberal Convention

I guess Carney has zero standards. A list of Gladu's greatest hits: 1) opposing cannabis legalization, she read a poem in the House urging MPs to "keep our great country safe from all the weed." 2) in 2020, she suggested using the military to end pipeline protests... bsky.app/profile/thes...

should I write the rest of the post or is this the whole thing

Nonprogrammers 5 years ago: "I have no idea or interest in how software is developed, deployed or tested." Nonprogrammers today: "I HAVE STRONG OPINIONS OVER THE DESECRATION OF THE JIRA WORKFLOW CAUSED BY VIBE CODING"

Precisely the reason we are in the shit. Having standards and imposing consequences on people who violate them is so twentieth century.

Why does the federal government gain by having one giant payroll system? We've seen that this is a risky thing to try to build so why do it if you don't have to?

“The wealthy cultural elite who run the media really, really wanted Trump to win” was a much better way to explain what happened in 2024. And the things we’re learning from the Epstein Files give some pretty solid evidence as to both how and why. The anti MeToo backlash was EXTREMELY important.

There are still brave good people in this debased and cynical age. Too bad none of them are in charge of anything.

This is a fun and accurate cartoon. My comment is that cynical and feckless MPs are downstream of the electorate taking zero interest in the quality of local candidates. The average contested nomination is decided by someone who could put forty people in a room. It’s harder to get a job than a nom.

Tubi rules because it is an aggressively uncurated jumble of content. Like a fantasy version of the best kind of grungy ‘80s video store.

Finally getting around to Primal season 3. Great stuff. I can’t think of a better example of sword and sorcery on television.

📣 New Podcast! "Women Invading Space" on @Spreaker

us: we are struggling to figure out the best way to use coding agents, we don't have clarity yet everyone else: our team is moving at speeds unheard of, all our PRs are ai generated, we've cleared 6 years of backlog man we must really suck huh

Curious what American media is making of this, if anything.

the technology itself will endure. OpenAI doesn’t have to

Me: “Why are people so hostile to this interesting but unproven emerging technology?” Me, after scrolling LinkedIn for ten minutes: “Oh.”

“Too often dismissed as a consumer protection issue, data governance is a core condition of economic competitiveness and national security. Data sovereignty is ultimately about self-respect, and it’s way overdue.” Good stuff from @vassb.bsky.social www.theglobeandmail.com/business/com...

no actually im a tough guy clomping around in shoes three sizes too big you must respect me

I'm sorry WHAT

enormously hot take: the reason a bunch of midwit software dev people are in their feels about agentic tooling is that it proves that good requirements specification and technical project management were the hard problem it's important for a human to be able to solve all along, not Coding™

Maybe there would be fewer white nationalists trying to get into the CAF and other places of influence in our society if we didn't look the other way while the world's richest man boosts white nationalism on the global platform he bought with the intention of boosting white nationalism.

Canada can start by making all politicians and government offices stop using X. www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art...

"Mainline conservatism is dying. In the US and UK at least, it is dead.This has been destabilizing to be sure, but let us not waste too much sympathy on it. It caused many harms and ignored many more. We should not fight for a creed that could not fight for itself."

I like how in 2026 a common security paradigm is writing a strongly worded letter to the guy in your computer

Dumbest thing Carney has done so far.

“We invoke international law and the “rules based international order” when adversaries engage in unlawful actions, but abandon those same rules entirely when it’s the Americans…For a country that depends on law more than force for its own security, that is not realism; it is recklessness.”

Here’s a moment where a robust NDP would be useful to Canada.

So the war that does not have congressional approval, already has Canadian approval? Are we just going to knock over liquor stores with Trump next?

It really is either you support trans rights or you support Hitler 2.0

Nothing. I truly believe the establishment in this country is weak, spineless & feckless. It feels a bit lonely to do it -- especially as a low paid freelancer w zero security. So why take the personal risk if none of the bigger players in civil society will even say a word? It's depressing. 3/3

Still using Twitter? You are materially supporting this.

One of the disorienting things about working with LLMs is the amount of garbage in the information space. There’s often frothy hype when a new technology arrives. You serve your users by assessing the tech without buying the bullshit, but it’s never been harder: all this nonsense is unprecedented.

The synergy between the rudimentary 3D and the dawn of flight era is what makes this one stand out beyond its peers. The glossy remake had zero charm by comparison. Missed a few classes playing this one.

My kid’s amazing clown-based 1-page RPG had its first playtest last night! Check out the game here: globalgamejam.org/games/2024/s...

Check out this nifty piece of work celebrating Telidon, Canada’s failed Videotex product. The site has contemporary and modern examples plus a Telidon art generator. remembertomorrow.ca/en-ca

A fun thing to do with AI takes, pro and con, is imagining people saying the same stuff about relational databases in 1972. It’s clarifying.

By the way, in case you want to be alerted if you come across one of these MORONS here on Bsky: bsky.app/profile/harp...

Harper had a slow growth US, which is similar to now. Looked for more deals. Their institutions are broken, been this way for a long time. It's only gotten worse. Winning only masks their core issues. 🇺🇸, isn't alone. EU is too slow, why MC said smaller coalitions on issue basis.

This is big. Very big

Remember when this guy couldn’t find a word to say for Canada in the heat of the moment? I do. Not surprised or displeased to hear that weakly pandering to the worst among us has landed him in trouble.

He can’t really believe any of what he is saying here, can he? Even if he is right about Trump, the country as a whole has proven to be pretty faithless to their friends. We don’t need friends who are only friends when it’s safe.

I had the opportunity to rise during Senate Question Period this week, to ask about the Canadian government's continued commitment to using X for official communications - and about their failure to use sites such as Bluesky and Mastodon. What do you think? #cdnpoli #Canada #Grok #X #Bluesky

“Over the course of a few decades (1990-2020) four times more Africans landed on U.S soil than during the entire period of trans-Atlantic slavery.” www.liberalcurrents.com/future-is-af...

The lack of a viable groupware alternative to Google and Microsoft is a strategic problem and not just for free software vendors. This gap needs filling.
