Whenever I write a TIL (Today I Learnt) post, it’s because if I don’t, it’ll also be that Today I Forgot (TIF). I’ll still forget, but at least it’s written down somewhere I’ll never look.

Luigi Mangione shocked health insurance CEOs who could never imagine working for free or stopping at killing just one person.

"hey hazel how do you know when you need to rest??" dont worry babes, my body has a really cool way of just shutting me the fuck down for two days whenever it wants, so thats usually when i schedule the rest time
cats will scream at bathroom doors instead of just going to therapy 🙄

Today was "upgrade my personal fleet of Alpine Linux systems to the latest (3.21) release" day 🥳 I upgraded 5 systems in about 30min! It was boring! 🎉 Upgrading to newer releases was always an annoying experience for me on other distros, but the #alpinelinux folks have done an incredible job making this Just Work twice per year, every year. I have a few silly system configs that always seem to survive release upgrades without needing changes, it's really amazing. @alpinelinux@fosstodon.org crushed it!
The book that @sarna.dev and I co-authored on writing engineering blog posts is now published. And it’s flanked by the best imaginable “bookends”: a foreword by @bcantrill.bsky.social and an afterword by @scott.hanselman.com! Details and Amazon/Manning links at bit.ly/3AVPWn9.
UKF 15 tomorrow at Drumsheds and I don't know if I'll survive this lineup
apt? I don't know her.💅

Exploiting mansplaining as tradecraft during WW II: “If she wants to know something specific, but doesn’t want people to notice her asking questions, she should simply make incorrect statements while in the company of experts. Her companions will correct her, especially if they're men.” From Elyse Graham's “Book and Dagger”, describing a training school for the SOE.
Attached: 1 image As far as manifestos go, this is pretty short and concise. I think killing people is wrong, especially if it's premeditated, carefully planned, and carried out with cold detachment. There are no heroes in this story as far as I'm concerned; just one killer encountering a killer of a different stripe. Still, news organizations suppressing this manifesto is a dereliction of duty. So, here you go.

In every job I've had before, I put in 100% effort, but ended up exhausted after a few months and hating work. Started a new job last year and consciously decided to only put ~50-60% effort from the off. Manager happy, no burnout and I don't hate work. 10/10, would recommend.
"How did you get to where it doesn't feel so awkward" hahaha bad news
not a big fan of murder as a political tool, naturally, but i am a fan of big symbolic gestures, and shooting the CEO of an insurance company with bullets that have 'deny', 'defend', 'depose' written on them is... *respectful whistle*
if your corporation requires you to use your phone for work, they need to provide you a phone fuck you if you're going to require me to allow you to remotely wipe my personal phone, what the fuck?
My trick for alt text is I use speech to text and I speak the description like I would describe it to someone over the phone I don’t always do it well but it’s been working for me better that typing
my neck my back my CEO attack

its so depressing that a man can't manage a system of precarity and excess mortality organized solely for shareholder wealth for 20 very profitable years without occasionally getting shot to death at 6:45am in midtown new york by a person dressed in a hooded jacket. what has become of this country?

@sean@scoat.es @markstory@mastodon.social type inference also helps a lot here. You get strong, static typing without having to specify. That wasn’t widely available until the mid-2000s.

Attached: 1 image Two years later. Want to know one of the major reasons Mastodon didn't catch on with journalists and large website owners? It is *invisible* in referrer statistics. Here's my blog from the last month. BlueSky now sends me more traffic than Bing. How much traffic does Mastodon send? It is impossible to know due to the "noreferrer" header in all links. (I'm not saying your privacy isn't important. But you can't build a community if no-one knows you exist.)
I want to give you this hadith, as reworded by my friend: "If you're planting a flower and you look up to see that the world is ending, finish planting the flower."
