Her story is also super inspiring www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/f...
2026 Olympic Gold figure skater Alysa Liu's work is so beautiful and joyful, take some time out of your day and watch this performance from the 2026 US figure skating championships: youtube.com/watch?v=9PTq.... What an absolute legend (and East Bay hero!)
This I got from my grandfather. He was a craftsman, and he gave me two precepts which as a writer I've not been able to get away from. One was always take as long as the job tells you to take, because the job will be there when you are not, and you don't want people to say, what fool did that? So I'm a very slow worker. The other precept was if the other chap can do the job, let him. In other words, do only what is uniquely yours.

"How Are the Very Rich Feeling About New York’s Next Mayor?"

Anyone who wants the full story and context should read @sarahkendzior.bsky.social’s “Hiding in Plain Sight”. Read this excerpt from “Jane Doe v. Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein”
Here is a good article. Teaser: “I believe that all learning is fundamentally coercive”. hbr.org/2002/03/the-...
Only during postmortem review!
A change that will do exactly what the author intended and couldn’t possibly cause an outage

Live footage of me in today’s postmortem review where a developer described the behavior-changing code that they couldn’t be bothered to put behind a feature flag / experiment as a “refactoring” and everyone kicked off about how dangerous “refactorings” are

A U.S. surgeon trying to have a “peer to peer” consultation with a doctor at a health insurance company who is hiding his identity as her patient gets denied coverage. And it gets worse from there. You have to see it to believe it.

This sounds very sensible!
I love watching the corrupt Democratic Party establishment, along with their paymasters and enablers in the media, running around absolutely peeing their pants at the thought of Mamdani becoming Mayor of NYC. I cannot wait for him to win.
Science publishing is industry whose incentives are spectacularly misaligned, and AI is already being put to tremendous use exploiting them www.theguardian.com/science/2025...
TIL that the behemoth that is the modern scientific publishing industry was created by Robert Maxwell (father of Ghislaine) www.theguardian.com/science/2017...
The corps like Publix that get mad about CIW & fair farm wages, it's not bc proper farm wages will put them out of business.
It's because they get upset when ANY workers get collective bargaining wins. It's just generic anti-labor politics- not an existential threat to their business.
Ex-farm worker here.
We need to talk about this whole "But a living wage for farm workers would spike the cost of food!" thing.
Not true AT ALL.
Y'all don't understand how fast experienced farm workers are.
The average tomato picker pulls 650lbs per hour.
At $20/hr, that's $0.03/lb for labor.
People are so ready to believe this shit that they're OK with pouring $160 billion into building a huge military operation that sweep migrants into internment camps, invades city parks bsky.app/profile/kenk..., and treats anyone who protests as an enemy adversary www.wired.com/story/dhs-te....
Also on crime: A National Institute of Justice funded study found undocumented immigrants were less than half as likely to be arrested as native-born U.S. citizens overall, as well as for violent crime: web.archive.org/web/20250128... (original article removed by current administration, of course).
So many believed the lie that immigrants will take their jobs & voted for 47 when really it's the GOP taking people's jobs & driving down wages to benefit huge, rent-seeking corporations. But why were you so ready to believe the lie? By @moreperfectunion.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlCj...
When the first family separations of migrants happened under Pres. 45, one of the talking points was that it was being done to stop people trafficking. In fact, as this Pulitzer Prize winning investigation shows, it was done out of pure cruelty as a “deterrent” www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...
“Any political system that prioritizes punishing those who protest genocide rather than stopping the killing has clearly exhausted itself.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...
Is that why the Apple campus is all curves?
Thank you so much for your kind words! ❤️ I’m very happy to hear my work has been helpful!
The ninth commandment would also like a word
Not that _that_ has stopped us before either!!
