Women: "this app has problematic default privacy settings" Guys online: BuT iT's FiNe FoR Me?!

If an app defaults to public and potentially dangerous privacy settings by default, that's your fault as a user apparently. Also don't look at Stava's privacy because facebook is worse. What a joke.

No, I just care. Stop blaming the app. Take some responsibility. Plus, yes, I am asked by the platform to confirm my privacy settings. If you want evil... look to stalk book.

There's this really weird thing where your lived experiences aren't identical to everyone else's. I know, strange thought isn't it? Maybe something to bear in mind.

Some dude replied to this tweet and demonstrated my point exactly - opting out of that kind of crap should be any apps top priority 😂

Oh god I'm going go be in an endless twitter thread of people explaining things to me, aren't I? Time to mute all the things.

So please enlighten me, where am I proactively encouraged to set my settings? Because from where I’m sitting it looks like I had to go find them.

Ahh, victim blaming and deflecting criticism to "but these other people are worse" - that doesn't cut it. The app can do better, they should do better.

If you are a developer who understands a semicolon can break everything I don’t know how you can pretend that you can’t see the power of language and word choice. It’s right there.

Just want to announce that I will NOT be giving any talks in the near future due to cancel culture and SJWs. This has NOTHING to do with the fact that no one wants to hear from me. I am quite handsome and popular, actually

Over the weekend I put together a small site where I'll be posting my #til (Today I Learnt). Interesting things I learn that I don't have the time or inclination to write a blog post about. til.marcusnoble.co.uk

I hate how reminders of the late management at NPM can still send me into a stress/anger spiral. I hate that they go on popular podcasts and disparage the good work of the team that came before them, while simultaneously taking credit for things they didn't actually do.

When you say that you "walked into a dumpster fire to save the web" you might want to clarify what _kind_ of dumpster fire: you knowingly joined a company that just wrapped up union busting

I agree with this post: many developers & sysadmins use online JSON validators, formatters, linters etc. but are often unaware what sensitive data they're putting on unknown websites. jvt.me/posts/2020/09/…

How long do you think they'll last? I wonder how TikTok users will come to enjoy batch jobs, workflows and Oracle UI's? I almost forgot Oracle's famed legal and licensing teams.

This has unnerved so many people that I'm genuinely tempted to make it a promoted tweet and scare some randos
