trolley problem logic is fun and all but eventually you have to deal with the fact that there's someone tying people to the fucking train tracks

Now I look into it, and I find it's on GB News. Well, that makes sense then.

Even if Twitter dies, almost nobody is going to jump ship to a decentralized platform like Mastadon. Too many people crave a centralized network. They want the Network Effect. They depend on it to attract customers.

I’ve mentioned this, but when I was in high school in the late 90s, we were fighting to get sexual orientation added as a protected class to our school’s anti-bullying policy. It failed mostly because Christian parents said their kids should have the right to, well, bully us twitter.com/gbbranstetter/…

School boards are increasingly adopting a posture where prejudice against trans students by teachers is protected speech, but protection of trans students by teachers is somehow prejudiced speech. twitter.com/JusticeHorn_/s…

If you don't understand this, you're all set for going forward. Watch more hustle-porn. Read more financial and managerial self-help. Admire more people for no other reason that they're rich. Wealth is not virtue. Wealth is not virtue. Wealth is not virtue.

IT'S A TUESDAY 🥳 A few hours to go for Session 03 of #PFWave7 'Into to Web Dev' (are you as excited as we are? yes or..yes 😉). This week is extra special as we're inviting 2 local legends, @Loftio & @CarolSaysThings, to share their experiences with our learners 🐳🤩

Got caught out today. Puncture, for some reason no tyre levers in my bag and late for nursery pickup. Luckily I had my trusty Afro comb. I’m the Black bike MacGyver aka the Shimano Shaft!

hey - you can block people, it’s fine! but blocking people because they’ve written light-hearted criticism of you *might* suggest you don’t actually have a unique, thought-out devotion to promoting debate on social media here’s the article anyway ft.com/content/ee5aa1…

Just for the record: I left Twitter before it was cool to do so. 😊 But seriously, it was the right decision back then and I have no regrets.

I dunno — I got a large proportion of my PhD done when travelling on trains due to the lack of internet connectivity :) You don’t need the 'net to code or write :)

Elon Musk has enhanced his own freedom - to wield power and shape the world in his own image. Will he enhance anyone else's? As a general rule, billionaires gain power at our expense.

I will believe that @ElonMusk is bringing free speech to this site when he starts posting about sex worker solidarity and lobbies for repeal of FOSTA/SESTA. Sex workers and adult content creators -- not Nazis -- are the true canaries in the coal mine of free speech.

So, if you're just an average American who thinks somehow Musk or some other billionaire is going to enhance the voice of the little guy on the Internet, you are a hopeless sucker who's not paying attention.

The next best thing to encrypting data is not putting it out there. Think: "would I want this read back to me in a court of law?"

Greggawatt@kolektiva.social (@greggawatt)Tue, 26 Apr 2022 05:44 +0000

Mastodon isn't the solution, it's just another thing with different problems. Each instance will have to defend itself from a court order if people want info, also it's not secure as you'd think. Take care of what you put out there

Twitter will totally be all about free speech after Elon Musk buys it because he's totally always been about that...

Not sure why people are criticising Elon Musk for spending $43 billion on Twitter. We spent £35 billion on a Test and Trace app and it didn't work.

The $44 billion Elon Musk just spent on Twitter could buy roughly 2 billion mRNA COVID vaccine doses for the world.

Everybody on Twitter wants to know where to go now. The answer is your own website, syndicating out to wherever else people end up. This is the IndieWeb. Let me know if you’d be interested in a talk about how to get set up.

Safely refactoring Ruby traditionally involves many incremental steps and feature flags. Sorbet and 100% branch coverage make it possible to refactor a lot of code safely.

Elon Musk is such a stellar example of this country's anti-intellectualism. A bunch of people calling themselves free thinkers believe that the richest man on Earth proposing the invention of tunnels is an anti-establishment genius.
