This Day in Labor History: October 16, 1859. John Brown and a group of followers invade the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia (today WV) to start a war and end slavery. Let's talk about this key moment in American labor history!

A New Color (1/5🧵)

gets incredible air here

Good morning, I'm happy to announce the release of Fidget 0.5.0! The big new feature in this release is a WGPU backend for fast 3D rasterization. In places where you can't run a JIT compiler (cough web browers cough), this gives an alternate path for interactive rendering speeds on complex models!

I rewrote my shaders in Rust. Now they're just as slow, AND they take a lot longer to compile 😎 aww yeah.

We have a new 3D AVBD Web Demo for our "Augmented Vertex Block Descent" method. Thanks, Chris Giles! Try it yourself: graphics.cs.utah.edu/research/pro... Source code available.

One reason we need to stake out the maximalist position on what happens to ICE agents & Trump officials afterwards both loudly and often is that it's morally correct, but another is to make it clear to political opportunists that "we must look forward, not backward" shit will end their careers

he got his hat and backpack back!

Amid growing calls for the abolition of ICE, Rep. Delia Ramirez is calling for the entire DHS to be dismantled. Highlighting how much experience the officers who killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti had, Ramirez said, “DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity.”

it is impossible to miss the difference between the names you see in newspaper headlines and the names you don't see in newspaper headlines

One thing that the past year has done to me is I’ve been forced to drop my principled opposition to capital punishment in all cases

A huge part of Spirit Crossing's visual style is the cel-shading and outlines! Everything is modeled for the appearance of these shaders and how it renders in Unreal. That means using soft edges where you don't want an outline and hard edges where you do.🧵

An unmaintainable codebase is caused by social or economic factors (the manager wants a feature factory, the company has no real competitors, etc). If the same incentives are in place, then an LLM is just a way to go faster in an awful direction.

While we’re in the streets demanding ICE Out For Good, Democratic leaders are dodging questions about whether an agency that teargasses babies and kills innocent people should continue to have a budget bigger than most countries’ militaries. It’s pathetic.

"defund the police" is where things ended up at, because every police reform victory ended up meaningless because cops could and did ignore them, and that was possible because they could and did threaten local government officials who would have to actually enforce those reforms.

I got basic ray-marching working in a custom renderer!

what is there to ask. ezra has the friends he wants

man, it is sad that harry enten as turned into this. the horserace coverage of 2016 at least didn't have this nihilistic frothing gambler thing going on

elon spends all day posting explicit white nationalism on his nazi platform, zuck is vastly more concerned with looking cool to MMA bros than anything else, these are not people who are interested in even pretending to play nice with you anymore treat them as the enemies they are

It kinda raises the question of how many chickenshit democrats are chickenshit, vs how many chickenshit democrats just don't think the constitution should apply to latinos & muslims.

I've once again caught the insolent, insubordinate computer doing exactly what we told it to do instead of what we would have liked for it to do

The reason a freakish organization like PSL is able to get credibility with people protesting war or genocide is because they're organized and their members actually show up and take risks. If a liberal or socialist org isn't willing to do that, why should the people taking risks listen to them?

Abolish the Senate. I am absolutely dead serious.

But what if we run out of curly brackets in the middle of the day and you have to haul in a new order.

The agita over protests on here is so weird, man. I mean I get that part of it is "well, we need something to talk about" but some people need to be less obvious about flatly refusing to go outside for any reason

in retrospect it was just great how milquetoast centrists decided the best way to react to the AWESOME police corruption and brutality exposed by the George Floyd protests was to go "actually, defund the police is a bad slogan, the Unserious Left needs to shut up" bsky.app/profile/mcle...

This will not happen unless the mayor directs CPD to arrest ICE in violation. At this point, he will discover why it is a problem that the CPD does not answer to the mayor. If only some well-organized movement in 2020 had pointed this out.

honestly, there's no point in reconvening congress basically ever again if the executive branch claims unilateral authority over appropriated funds. democrats have nothing to gain by helping to obscure the fact that the republicans are trying to build a monarchy - let him have his rump parliament

Master and Commander reboot tie in set

They are torturing people for the crime of legally seeking asylum in the United States.

We all need to dedicate the rest of our lives to destroying the republican party
