The absolute gall of this question. A required question, mind you.
I will likely not be getting called in for an interview, but it was totally worth it.

My daughters and I are feeding cows 10,000 pounds of macadamia nuts each and that's what makes us so relatable and makes it so clear we don't need to be taxed at 95+ percent of our income.

Pillaged from BlueSky:
"20 years ago we were suing teenagers for millions of dollars because they were torrenting a single Metallica album and now billionaires are demanding the free right to every work in history, so that they can re-sell it.
The law only ever serves capital."
In this episode of the Mechanical Ink podcast, Schalk Neethling chats with Zack Koppert from GitHub about open sourcing GitHub's open-source program office (OSPO) process, policies, and guidance. They cover a range of topics, including what an open source program office is, how it can be a vehicle for change, and key metrics to demonstrate the value and impact of an OSPO. They also touch on the use of a contributor license agreements (CLAs) and how to archive a project responsibly.
In this week's episode, we talk about the bizarre tale of a tech conference founder who listed a fake, "auto-generated" woman as a speaker, and how he is also behind a popular woman-in-tech social media personality.

This is the reason I infrequently post photos, because I want to spend the time to write good alt text, so don't just upload photos with sub-standard descriptions
I don't know.. I feel like this is going to be unpopular, but I'm going to say it.
I feel like not posting AltText because "I don't know how", or "I don't have the time/energy" needs to just fucking stop.
If you don't know how - learn.
If you don't have the time/energy - save the picture and post when you have the time/energy to AltText it.
It's giving businesses who whine "we didn't build a ramp because they're expensive.."
If the social model of disability is a thing (it is!) then the onus for accessibility is on able people (it is!)
Accessibility is mandatory.
Do better.

i would never use vs code. i can't even figure out how to exit it. ctrl-c doesn't seem to do anything. meanwhile vim tells you how to quit as soon as you run it! it's right there on the screen, only an idiot could miss it
I get #Kagi relying on sources that don't share my values. Nothing in our societal order is uncompromised.
But calling gay rights political is a dog whistle that I hear loud and clear. There's no world in which I directly pay money into that kind of leadership.

I'm shocked that the "Linking people searching for terms associated with self-harm to crisis centers is bad, actually" search engine would think that Brendan Eich is actually good
"You forgot? Must not be important."
Listen bro, I can and have forgotten to eat, pee, sleep, cash cheques. I've lost my car by taking the bus home after driving there.
Importance is not a distinguishing factor here. The fact a commodore 64 has more RAM than I do is the issue
Huge yikes.
Kagi is now partnering with Brave to power its search results — and they seem to be dismissing their users’ concerns regarding this partnership with a company that’s notorious for being led by a proud anti gay rights supporter.
Just as I’ve consistently advised against using Brave’s products, I now advise against using Kagi as long as it contributes to a homophobic business.
There can be no neutral politics when it comes to people’s rights and lives.

Thought of getting a Kagi account but not longer tempted after they announced working together with the Thiel-funded homophobe clowns at Brave. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Why is everyone like that, ugh.
It’s our 5th annual New Year’s party! Jerod & the gang review our predictions from last year, discuss what’s trending in the web world, make a few predictions for 2024 & even set some new resolutions for this year.
Frustrated by finding a great article that I wanted to share, but then realising that it's on medium so people would need accounts to read it. I'm in support of creators charging for content but the walling-off of intended-public content is a dark pattern.
Very cool to have received my first payout from Tidelift, from a company using one of the Open Source projects that I maintain 💸 Thanks very much to whoever it was, and looking forward to the income working towards me getting some longer-term financial support to continue maintaining the projects I do 🚀
