cool, cool. so we are sort of like citizens, but not really?
I don't often wear political t-shirts, but I'm proudly sporting this one today.
I'm an immigrant.
I teach American (and international!) college students, research the U.S. economy, consult with policymakers, write books, raise my kids, pay taxes, and try to make this a better place.
Heroes come in many forms and this is one of them
Loved this, and it hit hard (even though I've never worked at Amazon). Fantastic writing.
I don't want to live in a world where we forget how to be kind to each other and that seems to be the goal of those who want to control us.
I was laid off last week. I'm excited to start a new chapter where I can put my knowledge and dedication to work. I believe every chapter closes to make room for something more rewarding. I'm keen to discover the next opportunity. Learn more: www.linkedin.com/pos... #OpenToWork

Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.
Just fuck you. Fuck you all.
I can't remember the last time I was this angry.
This is incredible
Pavel @spavel.bsky.social Inside you there are two wolves. One is active, the other one is on hot standby and becomes active if the first one fails or is taken down for maintenance. Add more wolves as necessary for increased redundancy load balancing. A quorum badger can be added for environments with multiple active wolves. May 4, 2025 at 12:09 AM
If you're a new manager, or about to become one, these insights are for you.
I realized that many of the mistakes I've made during my transition into management are very common, and that's why I decided to write this down.

This is the hardest I’ve ever been owned online
I put smoked salmon in some marinara sauce last night and let me tell you what, don’t do that.
Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs.

A comic called "how to draw goose neck". In panel 1 the goose's neck is very short and is labeled "no". In panel 3 the goose's neck is the right size and is labeled "yes". In panel 3 the goose's neck is longer and is labeled "no". In panel 4 the goose's neck is extremely long and terrifyingly snakelike and it's labeled "yessss".
A comic called The Canada Goose: A Role Model For Our Time. In panel 1, the goose is labeled "assertive" and is hissing furiously. In panel 2 it's "brave" and is standing up to a fearsome swan. In panel 3 it's "good parent" and is standing up to a dog while protecting its goslings. In panel 3 it's "team player" and is flying in a beautiful V. In panel 5 there's a close up of its head and it's labeled "crisp, modern aesthetic". In panel 6 it's eating grass and pooping and labeled "high fiber diet".
There's a lot of talk about Canada Geese and whether they're good and my answer is Yes.

Hey folks, — In case you are into workload identity news (I know, "very niche" topic), you might want to check out the November edition of "What's Up in Workload Identity:
workloadidentity.news/p/whats-up-i...
This edition highlights SPIKE, a SPIFFE-first Secrets Management solution.
Basically it's translating a broad user auth token issued and validated online by an IdP into a new token that can be validated offline by anything that can validate a SPIFFE SVID.
Netflix built a much simpler system with E2E tokens that seemed to scale really well.
The implementation proposed here was only ever a POC, but there's a SPIFFE SIG pushing on the concept.
Doing this safely (ie. without passing around broadly scooped user bearer tokens) isn't easy though.
Here's a write up with more context docs.google.com/document/d/1...
