I remain skeptical that engineers will investigate every alert if experience shows that most alerts are false alarms. Hard to build reliable systems that way.

Exceptionalizing antisemitism as the only acceptable form of bigotry to care about on campus is not only unfair to so many other marginalized groups who face bigotry; it's ultimately bad for Jews, too. Keeping Jews as the sole protected class of the government never works out for us in the end.

BREAKING NEWS: 4:07 Anti-deportation protesters are blocking traffic on 101 Freeway in Los Angeles. They want to stop Trump’s deportations of illegal migrants

The desire for the "good old days" forgets that a lot of women were on Barbiturates and Pen-fen because someone decide that the problem wasn't that they were being oppressed and abused but that they weren't hiding it well

I am, but it’s fine, because every post is only one sentence, and I only put one space after commas.

Freedom of movement is a fundamental human right. Borders require constant, systemic violence. I am convinced, however many years from now it takes, we will look back at this barbaric system with the same antipathy as some countries' systems of internal passports and "papers please"

I wonder if congestion pricing will affect suburban attitudes to high density housing near commuter rail stations. Doesn’t help with the “I got mine / no more room” mentality, but maybe with the attitude that people who ride the train belong to a lower social class?

Neighborhood appliance store where you can take in your food processor, get it retrofitted with an IEC C14 socket.

They should study us to find out why we keep making such insecure systems.

I had to teach high school students about files circa 2015. Took five minutes in the first week of class. Kind of wish I’d pushed for that first week of html lessons to become part of the non-elective curriculum for every student.

Finally read Joe Duffy’s retrospective on Midori OS this weekend. Cool ideas about exceptions, actors / message passing. Also hints of how MSR’s investment in Haskell makes it into their commercial products. joeduffyblog.com/2015/11/03/b...
