I'm at the neighborhood social mixer. I'm at the elementary school parent ICE watch patrol. I'm at the combination neighborhood social mixer ICE watch patrol.

We can resume arguing over to who to support in DFL primary elections later! And when we do, we’ll all have more wisdom. bsky.app/profile/whst...

The median Minneapolis moderate right now is like “GET THESE CRIMINAL GHOULS OUT OF OUR CITY” and working arm-in-arm with DSA. People not from here cannot comprehend the degree of factional rancor that instantly evaporated when the men with masks showed up

Trump, Vance, Miller and the rest of those sociopaths thought that we would hate our Somali neighbors as much as they do. Guess what. We don't. They thought that we would be as offended as they are by hearing Spanish or Hmong. They thought we were as broken as they are. Nope. They're wrong.

I wrote section 230 to protect user speech, not a company's own speech. I've long said AI chatbot outputs are not protected by 230 and that it is not a close call. Given that the Trump administration is going to the mat to protect pedophiles, states should step in to hold Musk and X accountable.

I am not a Section 230 expert but being that Twitter is creating and publishing these photos I wonder if they actually have any civil legal protection? @kenwhite.bsky.social ? @akivamcohen.bsky.social ?

“I am truly glad to have formed my point of view on culture and society at a time when there was a peer-based expectation of having values, and of holding each other to them.” - @anildash.com Yes! Sometimes worrying “what would my friends think if I did this?” is good. bsky.app/profile/anil...

For folks who remember the concept of "selling out", I wrote this a few years ago so you can explain it to younger people who are not familiar with what the idea meant within culture. www.anildash.com/2023/04/18/w... It's hard to explain why someone would not license their song for a commercial.

Yeesssss. I'm liking what I'm seeing in the NextConf livestream. Next.js has been bending the meaning of "static" and "dynamic" for a long time. It's good to be up front about it. Next.js 16 is still investing heavily in HTTP streaming which may be counterproductive for many sites.
