TLDR; “Yes, if you let Nazis get on stage, there will be less Nazis. We’ll simply out talk them. That definitely works every time! Anyway, here’s a pile of money someone unspecified gave me.” Fuck Substack and fuck every “moderate” bagging for “civil discourse” with genocidal maniacs. https://www.theverge.com/2023/12/21/24011232/substack-nazi-moderation-demonetization-hamish-mckenzie

If your platform bans consenting adults posting pictures of their own bodies and their interactions with other consenting adults bodies but does not ban Nazis, you can't tell me that you don't censor content. You do censor content, you're just okay with Nazis.

Thinking of starting a new consulting business, called "That's Fucked Up As A Service". I sit there and you explain your legacy system to me, and all I do is say "That's fucked up." If you agree, you get a discount. If you try to justify the brokenness, you have to pay double.

Something cool newer #git versions are doing - you'll now see Reapply instead of Revert Revert ... in commit messages, if you're reverting a revert.
In an older version of Git (i.e. with 2.34.x) you would see:
Revert "Revert "Commit title here""
Revert "Commit title here"
Commit title here
However, in newer versions (i.e. with 2.43.x) you now see:
Reapply "Commit title here"
Revert "Commit title here"
Commit title here
Which makes it a little bit cleaner in your Git log

Stop defending companies as if they're people in 2024. I'm begging you please. Just because the government treats them with personhood doesn't mean you have to. Legality of a concept does not equate to its morality. Edit: I was not asking for peoples' opinion on corporate personhood. This was some of y'all first interaction with me so imma add a disclaimer (and reminder to read): "legality of a concept does not equate to its morality". Meaning even with laws of personhood, people aren't considered HUMANS. Closest to a measurable object by which the law is prejudiously applied to. I swear, the first feature I'm making for my site when I add AP support is disabling replies.
