Mutual aid doesn't mean "charity but less shitty" it means you know who to call when an ebike needs fixing, when you want some shake, and when you need to connect your guy who gets asthma inhalers over the border from TJ with your street medic friends who treat people

"Feta wrap" ordered with the same scansion as Hillary Clinton on SNL saying "Fetty Wap"

Social media never misses I’ve been called a lot of things in my life. But this!?

Honestly, I'm still pretty flabbergasted that brexit really happened Shit politicians coming and going, sure of course. That happens. Getting into wars, awful but leaders keep doing it. To actually leave something like the EU boggles the mind

I love that that "comicbook" and "comicinfo" are the length Which means they line up nicely in monospace font situations: code, terminal, logs 🦸🏻📚💥

I enjoyed this video, and this channel in general, but I just can't not hear the pattern of repeating an idea as a series of items in a list. I don't know if he uses AI to write or edit his scripts, but these parts make it sound like he does. .youtube.com/watch?v=tMBR3ur1egk

🖨️🩷 Longshot… do I know anyone in/near Portland, Oregon who happens to own the same printer/toner as me? Xerox VersaLink C500 — magenta toner I just ran out while printing a mountain of zines for an event on Saturday. I'm ordering replacement online, but juuuust in case anyone has some… 👋🏻

JavaScript considered dangerous, harmful

I hate HATE not talking about work in progress projects. But I also know that talking about a thing scratches the same creative itch as working on it. And I know that talking about and never finishing is a bad practice. Woe is me.

ActiveSupport.js I'm genuinely surprised that no one ever ported #Rails' Active Support to Javascript. —— I'm fully acknowledging that it would be a huge annoying pain in the butt to do it, because it's building on top of JS not Ruby, which have very different… all of the things. But still!

Software installation via curl a shell script from the internet and pipe it into bash/etc… is such a dangerous antipattern I wish that we could rally a campaign against doing this: - educate users of risks - dissuade projects - show a better way to projects and users

❌ I can no longer recommend domain registrar Hover̲.com ❌ They pulled some GoDaddy level shit on me. Phone support was adversarial with me and wanted $300+ (fee + renewal) for a domain I let expire. I waited until their registrar hold expired, then re-registered with DNSimple for way less. 🎉

English is always verbing nouns and nouning verbs in America. Am I right.

Idea: EOL planning built into software ownership A human centric *end of life* planning When a maintainer goes radio silence… When a code owner dies… Who inherits it? What are we doing about this? In Ruby land, could we put this into .gemspec files? In a signed EOL.md/LEGACY.md file or something?
