Ok this is a truly great tweet

Or, hear me out. We don't scrap all Federal gas taxes for the rest of the year. Instead we work to incentivise people to find options that don't tie your freedom to one mode of transportation. My bias is on e-bikes, but walking, rolling & public transit are wins too. globalnews.ca/news/1186458...

The viral marketing campaign for the upcoming #Bobiverse movie[1] is getting completely out of hand [1] I have no idea if there is any such film in the works

The Free Market is always best, except when it chooses against entrenched conservative interests.

The vouchers are for a more limited audience this round.

"Is it the greatest album of all time, or did it just happen to come out when you were sixteen?" Fortunately for Elder Millennials, OK Computer came out when we were sixteen so we don't have to wrestle with the difficult implications of the question.

New version of “if you go home with somebody and they don’t have any books…” just dropped.

I feel like every time #Docker Desktop on macOS has a new version available, it crashes running engines in quiet and surprising ways, is that just me?

Christopher Nolan’s viral marketing campaign has gotten out of hand

enough. i’m tired of github actions. it’s time for github consequences

#Steam needs a "I want to buy this but there's no macOS build, so" button to go along with the "Wishlist" button. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

I'm always amused when the NextDoor set in #Boulder complains that modest infill will turn the city into "Manhattan". Buddy, there's more tree cover on my walk from hotel to company office in Manhattan than the walk from my house here to the neighborhood grocery store.

“Sailing to Valinor” takes on new meaning in a world with elven pornos.

I said something once about the desecration of the classics and he told me something very interesting. Now this is one technician’s impressions from like 40 years ago… but I think time has borne him out. He told me that the point of the whole thing wasn’t colorization. It was restoration.

The best time to invest in electrification, solar, and high-speed rail is 20 years before launching a war of choice against an adversary with ready access to a fossil fuel chokepoint. The second best time is… ever, please, I'm begging us. 😧

@amyhoy.bsky.social Hello! Does anyone still crew the [email protected] email account? I’ve reached out a few times with a billing issue but haven’t heard back.

Unfortunately we live in a world that’s impossible to satirize, because I worked at a midsize PE-backed firm where a long-tenured IT staff member died, and the CEO’s all-hands email said (paraphrasing from memory) “I like to picture him sitting at his desk.”

Why am I meant to commiserate with Brad? He's part of why we're here. He didn't rally against it. He embraced it. He brought it on. He didn't just do this to himself, he did this to all of us, and he doesn't even have the decency in the article to apologize.

Rough week for Lambos

On the off chance, would someone be interested in tickets for UK games expo tickets for Sunday? We bought 2 adult + child but we won’t go after all (31st of May https://www.ukgamesexpo.co.uk/). Happy to undercut the price. #boardgames

I’m willing to suspend disbelief that an alien born on Krypton could develop superpowers after being raised on Earth, but a billionaire who can read/learn? You lost me.

When radioactivity was discovered, there was a rush to market for all sorts of radioactive consumer goods. There were water jugs made out of uranium glass, for example. I think about that a lot these days whenever I see AI products being marketed to consumers.

A little UI nicety that has positively ruined me for systems that don't have it… if I have a URL in the pastebuffer, then select text and paste: Slack, Confluence, etc. make that text a link to my URL. Such a clear application of inferring user intent. Annoys me in gmail every time it doesn't work.

WaPo rewarming a THIRTY YEAR OLD Futurama bit. Except Bachelor Chow is a way better name.

Blow it up like the whale.

Heist to steal the secret wu tang album from Martin Shkreli, put it on youtube

Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time. This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.

Unless it adds STS v Buran to the space race track, I’m out.

“Skynet Edu” I’m dying 🤣

wisdom

Hmm.

Happy April 20!

Studios laying off hundreds and thousands of employees with the excuse that they can move production to the UK and not have to pay for healthcare because the UK has socialized medicine should be humiliating to the US government.

Y'all, the man from this meme NEEDS a vacation. Please, let him rest.

Boulder Daily Camera last week: "Here's an OpEd saying we shouldn't allow building new housing. Move your ass to Lafayette if you want to live here." Boulder Daily Camera today: "Oh shit we don't have enough families here to fill our Elementary Schools. How did this happen?"

Hello friends and fans! I’m starting a new chapter and seeking full-time teaching or instructional design work in Philadelphia, South Jersey, NYC, or remote. If you know anyone hiring someone with a BA in English and a master’s in instructional science, please email: lars [ at ] mclars [ dot ] com

the Artemis mission is what I believe in and want to see more of in the world. smart, kind experts working together for knowledge and discovery.

The ineffable bliss of other commuters being fellow travelers instead of everyone a giant metal box in each others' way.

Yeah this is a much better response to this than pretending it means a draft is imminent The automatic registration thing is being shared by certain news sites in a deliberately misleading way. Men already had to register for the draft, now it’s just being done automatically

Assertion my four year old just made: “Hulk could pick up the [Stay Puft] Marshmallow Man”

The ineffable bliss of other commuters being fellow travelers instead of everyone a giant metal box in each others' way.

I would support taking this argument to its logical next step if it meant every headline now asks if richer neighborhoods and gated communities should get access to 911

Mysterious warning to Ruby app maintainers: “bundle update rack” asap.

Almost three years ago I released CardRunners, a 2p co-op cyberpunk card game about hackers trying to take down the Man. Now that it’s been a while and woefully out of print, any publishers want to pick it up for some refinement and broader distribution? Just tossing it out there. 🎲 ✂️
