That stat is startling! But this is what I mean when I say that Americans only notice horrific things that happen to Black people, when they start happening to non-Black people🤷🏿‍♂️ Ferguson, MO has 14K Black people. It issued ~20K racist citations a year against them🤯, leading to ~30K arrest warrants.

shitposts aside, this one is serious, my loves: if you’re just waking up and you have any service online running PHP 5.4 to latest, you need to take it down RIGHT NOW and don’t put it back online until after it’s patched absolutely catastrophic vulnerability dropped in the middle of the night

How did you find out the young man’s identity, @wsj.com? hmm?

@kylec.bsky.social If you so choose, please ask this question to politicians. What is something that you take full accountability for, whether it goes right or wrong? This can be used for policy decisions, bills sponsored, votes cast, anything.

I have a very close friend in Gaza, a mother of three children, who has lost everything and is in need of donations for her family. 

 Please give if you can. No amount of donation is too small. And help others, there are many Gazans in need. 🙏 chuffed.org/project/1981...

I’m excited to share that we've added a consequential hint to the WebMCP spec! For site devs: set to true when WebMCP tools may perform a high-stakes action: anything that needs explicit user permission in order to execute. If you’re going to make a purchase, send an email, or book travel.

Huge congratulations to the US-based Wikimedia Foundation employees who voted with 92% support in favor of unionizing, and shoutout to the tireless work of the organizers.

Hey all. I could really use your support. I'm trying to build up momentum before I launch my book about reinventing work. To do that I need to get on bigger stages. Here is where you come in. I need votes for my SXSW proposal. Can you vote for my session here: participate.sxsw.com/flow/sxsw/sx...

I've been thinking about the debate over open and closed AI models. The more I think about it, the more it reminds me of the transition from alchemy to chemistry. History might have more to teach us about AI than we realize. I wrote about why. www.linkedin.com/pulse/ai-lab...

This was such a fun episode to record! We could have gone one for a few more hours even.

Erling Haaland♥️ * Vocal supporter of men cooking and cleaning * Self-aware of the historical context of the vikings ("Yes viking history is incredible. But a lot of things were not good... what they did. Let's be honest.") * Vocal anti-racist who used his platform to defend UK players from UK fans

@gottalaff.bsky.social Are you tracking that they may be doing this, allowing Russia back in, because the same case can be made against USA participation due to our aggressive actions against other countries?

Hi, friends. The last 6 years have been a blast, but I just don't like being on The Internet anymore. I'm leaving DevRel, and I wrote a little bit about why. Look after yourselves, and each other. Love, Salma

It would be interesting to see a court debate where both side are putting a number of how many kids Elon killed. Is the defense that he killed more or less than 4.5 million?

So grateful to #SXSW for giving me a platform to help shape the future of work. Thank you to all the people who participated with deep meaningful questions. They brought out the nuance that the talk needed.

@rosiesherry.com wrote two great pieces on community & enshittification. I highly recommend reading both of them. rosie.land/posts/the-co... rosie.land/posts/ai-ens...

Not to toot our own horns but I feel like we packed so much in this one hour panel with @karenhao.bsky.social and John Palfrey. You can find the recording at www.youtube.com/live/I1tJnM8...
