In the past few days I’ve seen talk about RAM prices shooting up due to demand from big datacenters. Today I read that a historic brand like Crucial - I own plenty of their hardware, including SSDs - is dropping consumer products to focus on gear for those same datacenters. The result (or maybe […]

We must keep paying attention to the particulars of what the Trump regime is doing to people. It is the only way we are going to stay galvanized in the face of large-scale, relentless fascism. It is what makes the utter moral wrongness crystal clear. Case was brought by people arrested by […]

Before I get into the legal ins and outs of the case, I need to note the comparatively banal yet horrorific facts. As I was reading, I suddenly realized I felt *exactly* as I did when I was kid and read Diary of Anne Frank and Elie Wiesel’s Night. The exact same sense of of growing horror that […]

Sometimes people ask questions because they just want to talk to someone. I want to suggest that this is important and something we should make space for. I think that's also why there is a lot of nostalgia and love for "shitposting" ... it's just pure human interaction without a lot of […]

As a teacher I do not say the line "there are no stupid questions" in part because I try to avoid using the word "stupid" but also because it's a lie and everyone knows it. Some questions are better than others. But here is something I didn't understand until far too late in life: People ask […]
