I was pretty sure this administration insisted that we totally obliterated Iran last summer…

Whoa congrats! Enjoy it!

lol @jim-nielsen.com just stumbled upon blog.jim-nielsen.com/2022/css-for... trying to find a pure CSS way to style a link in a sidebar when the user is on that page. Still no dice it looks like...

Finally a great use of AI for my daily routine - Prompted Playlists on Spotify is a feature I've wanted for a long time. I don't have the energy/memory to go through and manually curate playlists (I still mostly listen to 90s music) so really hoping this proves to work well

Greg Bovino Loses His Job The Border Patrol chief has been ousted from his role as “commander at large,” and will return to El Centro.

Looks like his choice to be a lying jackass had consequences

I’m ralphing today - send good thoughts

The Policy Director for the President of the United States said that the VA nurse was murdered because he was an “assassin.”

And not one Republican in Congress will say a god damn word about because they are spineless cowards.

Republicans are in favor of having a gun to defend yourself from a tyrannical government unless you have a gun to defend yourself from a tyrannical government

They’re just straight up murdering people in broad daylight now

This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

Yep - nothing is illegal if law enforcement and the courts don’t do anything about it. They know they can just keep doing whatever the F they want and any repercussions will take years in the courts

Federal judge bars ICE agents from ‘retaliating’ against protesters in Minnesota — The Minnesota Star Tribune The injunction filed Jan. 16 follows a lawsuit brought by six Minnesota residents during the early days of Operation Metro Surge last month.

It’s absurd that in 2026 we need a judge to rule that federal officers cannot retaliate or use chemicals against peaceful protesters

Details, links, and package ranges are listed below

Yeah seems like it more and more

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

Congrats on the new gig!

It would be so cool if the United States Congress still existed.

I think the ease of reading, and how little I notice them missing is what is surprising me. I’ve always been pro-semicolons and agree that ASI is something I’d rather not keep forefront in my brain. I expected to dislike/notice it more

Been working in some prettier `semi: false` code for a bit and I'm surprised how much I don't notice/don't care

We found that the fix to address the DoS vulnerability in React Server Components (CVE-2025-55184) was incomplete and does not prevent an attack in a specific case.

This is disclosed as CVE-2025-67779. New patches are available now, please update immediately.

Researchers have found two new vulnerabilities in React Server Components while attempting to exploit the patches last week.

These are new issues, separate from the critical CVE last week. The patch for React2Shell remains effective for the Remote Code Execution exploit.

Hope this helps! Feel free to reach out on here or in our Discord if you have any questions!
