The most obvious lesson to draw from the leaked Signal chat is that these people really are morons. It's not a public act, it's not a schtick, there's not some secret back room where they drop the facade. They are genuinely stupid, incompetent people.

I’m giving @flashes.blue a go. It’s a Bluesky app for iOS that only shows image- or video-based posts. Some folks are suggesting it as a potential Instagram alternative.

If you haven't hopped on these free videos that @adamwathan.com is putting out, you should. They are *great*. I've learned a ton. tailwindcss.com/build-uis-th...

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

Molotov-Ribbentrop 2.0

That’s the problem. We’ve been standing by for too long.

This is probably the most accurate take.

Captures it perfectly.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

"Exports account for about 40% of Germany’s GDP, but 3/4 go to the rest of the EU. 'True' German exports, those going outside the EU, are just over 10% of GDP, in line with the US. Nobody ever worries whether Florida exports too many oranges to the rest of the US. So why the double standard?"

“The Democrats didn’t do enough on Gaza, so I withheld my vote to make a statement.” “Well, Trump won and now he’s gonna destroy Gaza.” “Yep. We’re paying the price for the Democrats’ incompetence.” “‘We?’ The Gazans are paying the price, not us” Pause. “I needed to make a statement.”

I’m really not crazy about Twitter’s new logo.

‼️ Update Thread: So a few things happened that I think it would be easiest if I just lump together.

One of my favourite UI patterns is using `backdrop-filter` to create a “frosted glass” effect. When I see this effect in the wild, though, it’s almost never as lush and realistic as it could be. There’s an important optimization that nobody makes. ✨ I share the secret sauce in my brand-new post:

since everyone's freaking out about how public bluesky is, here are some privacy tips: 1. never post pics of your house/area, geoguessers are GOOD 2. if you don't want people to be able to learn A LOT about you, don't use your full name 3. always assume something is public unless proven otherwise

If you’re seeing some glitches today, it’s growing pains from scaling up so quickly! Thanks for bearing with us.

On a very serious note: it doesn't matter if you're left, right, purple or blue, if you want world peace the quickest route right now is to tighten monetary sanctions (and energy sanctions) asap. Below #ruble #collapse graph illustrates the enormous leverage of democratic world over Putin. Use it.

I hear @bsky.app team moved off AWS not too long ago. Found this blog post - newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/i/114113498/.... Would love to read how it is playing out in light of the recent influx of new users. #devops

I really don’t understand this whole ‘stay on Twitter and fight’ thing. You’re jousting with bots and reply guys and wading through ads it’s not Waterloo.
