We are living under the One-Third Reich.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

Not a selfish feeling at all. A generation of lefty policy wonks watched their shameless conservative counterparts shower in money from a right that is openly, publicly corrupting anyone willing to sell out, and they got everything they ever wanted out of it. It's bullshit. It's wrong.

People Are Calling Meta Ray-Bans "Pervert Glasses" On Bluesky, users quickly embraced the term "pervert glasses" to refer to Meta's Ray Ban smart glasses, following a shocking investigation.

Make it stick.

A Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse Since receiving presidential pardons, dozens of former Capitol rioters have gotten into more legal trouble. In Florida, Andrew Paul Johnson was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse.

Jan 6ther Andrew Paul Johnson was molesting a child before he was imprisoned in 2024.

Trump pardoned him - and he immediately went back to molesting that child, AND that child’s friend.

Then he tried to buy their silence by claiming he’d give them some of the millions in restitution he expected.

You need terraform and Claude to initiate a career limiting database drop? That’s amateur hour shit, man.

Not just that. There's something wrong with him like there was something wrong with Jeffrey Dahmer

Hegseth: "The only ones who need to be worried right now are Iranians who think they're going to live"

this is explicitly genocidal

It’s so braindead, this place has plenty of problems but “algorithmic filter bubble” absolutely is not it.

it's like he does the wrong thing but it somehow ends up being right but he doesn't like it

Andreessen doesn't get enough attention (read: criticism):

A picture of PEW poll on global attitude survey, saying the % who rate the morality and ethics of people in their country as good vs bad, where the US has the worst rankings and Canada the best

Americans: we live in a fallen state—embroiled by sin, cheating, lying, and evil. You cannot trust anyone, not even those who claim to know you best

Canadians: I love my neighbors and my friends!

RFK Jr. wants Dunkin’ to prove drinking its iced coffee is safe - The Boston Globe The warning comes as Kennedy is leaning heavily into his agenda to improve American diets.

This moron has no idea how much of a third rail this is. If he goes through with a public fight with Dunkin he will never live this down. In the words of my people "fuck ya motha."

* people are talking past each other in a way that is very incurious
* curiosity is one of the most distinctive parts of humanity and a primary driver of human progress

* typing out code is definitely one of several time sinks, if you take your job seriously and spend a lot of time exploring options
* it is not the only time sink, but it is one
* claude can help explore a design space in a less committal fashion
* this makes the harder parts of eng more tractable

I think about this take more often than I'd like to.

10/10 No notes.

They are literally running with “we have always been at war with Eurasia.” Unreal.

The fact that the U.S. has been so successfully brainwashed into thinking that sunburned white guys with cheeky Nazi tattoos Define the Working Class when the ACTUAL working class is non-white women (many of them immigrants) - yeah, that’s one of the great madness runes of our time.

Jesus Fucking Christ

Personal news update: I'm delighted to announce that as of today, I am an actual Bluesky employee! I'll be working to welcome indie media and local govt to Bsky—and supporting those already here.

I'll always want to hear your thoughts on how we can make Bsky the sort of social media we all want!

One way I think about the health of an ecosystem is the participants are able to articulate the value of the network as well or better than the creators. That's always been part of what makes @rude1.blacksky.team a triple threat: amazing coder, dedicated community builder, brilliant communicator

She's like an old samurai whose great battles are behind her but every once in a while she kills a man with piece of paper just to prove a point

oh great

This is what "anti-wokeness" was all about, making it publicly acceptable to be an aspiring genocidaire bsky.app/profile/mehd...

Indeed my contempt for the people who put him in office knows no bounds

Quote from Washington Times editorial board "[Radical liberals] don't realize that, when they express contempt for the man who holds the country's highest office, they reveal their contempt for the Americans who put him there."

Uh no...we definitely realize it.

It's so telling that these people are rushing to condemn "the campus left" at this moment
