I would have more patience for the argument that #OpenSource is dead were it not for the fact the people making the argument are benefiting from huge quantities of the stuff and would rather their customers didn't benefit the same #SoftwareFreedom

Apparently, the #DailyMail has just launched "Woke Watch", where red faced pillocks send in angry e-mails, complaining about transgender asylum seekers giving their house prices pronoun cancer, or something.
Anyway, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should one e-mail wokewatch@dailymail.co.uk to #Troll, #Shitpost or just plain take the piss. No, that would be WRONG. Oh, for shame!

Can we all please agree to not put something called ‘Blog’ on a website if it doesn’t also have a RSS/Atom feed for it? If you’re going to make me have to remember to check your site for new articles, I’m not going to do that.
I co-wrote a cookbook for depressed people and other folks with zero spoons, only knives. It's not meant to be gourmet cooking so much as a survival guide for late stage capitalism. And you can get it for free!

TIL the online dating site OkCupid once (2014) warned Firefox users about the Firefox (then) CEO's stance against same-sex-marriage and offered them download links to other browsers.
That guy, Brendan Eich, now is the Brave Browser CEO.

- 7.2% of American adults are LGBTQ. That's 18.9 million adults, or larger than the entire veteran population.
- 11 million Americans are bisexual. That's more people than the entire state of Georgia.
- 3.6 million Americans are gay. That's more than the entire state of Utah.
- 2.6 million Americans are lesbian. That's more people than every single farmer in the country.
- and 1.6 million of us are transgender. That's TWICE as many as there are cops in the entire United States.
When people say "we shouldn't change our entire society just to pander to such a small percentage of it", that's obviously a really dumb argument from just an ethical stance. But it's also a really dishonest one. Because they would never say the same thing about veterans, farmers, cops, or the populations of entire States.

APIs are ubiquitous and critical to building modern software, and developers must frequently develop custom APIs to streamline user access to their services. However, making an API that provides a great developer experience can be a time-consuming endeavor. As a result, API teams often leave the final mile of integration up to their users. Speakeasy
Monitoring and debugging distributed systems is hard.

Today we’re talking with Alice Merrick & Andy Walker about building a world-class developer experience. You know it when you see it, things just feel right. But it’s more than just a pleasant UI or lipstick on a pig (which is a saying), it really matters.
Last week AWS published a blog post advising that the go1.x Lambda runtime will be deprecated and people should migrate to provided.al2. I was already using the newer runtime, but I also learned from the blog post that AWS SAM can now build Go Lambda functions for the newer runtime - no more Makefiles required!
