Logged on after a purposeful day of not watching the news, logging off now after seeing the trash fire it was always gonna be. For the next 4 years, I'm going to try to focus on helping my local community and orgs. It's the best thing I can think to do in the face of... all of this.

Who made this 🤣

A PR of mine was accepted into go-wasm-http-server (https://github.com/nlepage/go-wasm-http-server) that makes it #TinyGo compatible! Now your Go webservers can be built into tiny WASM blobs and run in ServiceWorkers 🥳

Describes complete staff work, a management technique that improves local autonomy, prevents going back and forth, and carves out greater responsibilities for yourself.

I spent the 2017 US Presidential inauguration working in a small open plan office, where someone put it on the TV to then loudly talk about it. I’m very glad I work from home now, and can avoid it today.

When people like this talk about WFH damaging productivity, they’ve clearly not worked in an open office for a while https://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/jan/20/working-from-home-not-doing-proper-work-stuart-rose

The EU should demand that American Big Tech sell their assets to European companies. They can’t be trusted to not manipulate the data for propaganda reasons. Not doing so is a national security risk. Am I doing this right?

if you see someone slacking at their Big Tech job, no you didn't

China having my data can’t be used in American courts Even with nothing to hide I’ve learned that data, motivation, and power can ruin lives

I had very few concerns using TikTok while it was owned by ByteDance I have a lot of concerns if it's owned in total or part by a US company

I would say that the US is moving into "the law doesn't matter, only the President's whim matters" territory faster than I expected, but this is about on schedule.

Human nature being what it is, it seems extremely likely that sometime today we will see millions of U.S.-based TikTok users installing some shady or "free" VPN software just to get around the ban. So even though we banned TikTok, ostensibly for security reasons, we end up creating an even bigger security problem when millions of people install some app that can read and modify all traffic.

they should shut down every social media site and force us all to get a life tbh

Every few months or so, somebody asks on social media why a particular DVLA digital service is turned off over night. Rather than answering it every time, I’ve decided to write this post, so I can point people at it in future. It’s a great case study to show why making government services digitally native can be quite complicated.

I would like for all of this to end in the repeal of the TikTok ban, but it's almost certainly going to end with Trump negotiating the sale of US TikTok as a gift to one of his cronies, which is why Elon and Zuck are elbowing each other so hard right now.

Today I learned the cybertruck is illegal in europe. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

I mean, Jack Dorsey speaking about "Infusing Open Source Culture into Company DNA" when not a single soul has ever heard of him in relation to Open Source before this talk title would have worked as a joke to me. https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event/fosdem-2025-4507-infusing-open-source-culture-into-company-dna-a-conversation-with-jack-dorsey-and-manik-surtani-block-s-head-of-open-source/

Spoilers are the worst. I’ve been binging The Traitors (UK) and saw a spoiler for the outcome of series 2, 3 episodes from the end. Completely takes the tension out of it.

People who don't pay any of my bills: "why are you researching x when you should research y" 🙄🙄🙄
