Uhhhmmm donβt love a Bluesky dev publicly calling the entire user base conspiracy brained.
If Bluesky users are prone to conspiracies @alex.bsky.team itβs because yβall place no value on communicating and donβt give people enough information, forcing them to come to their own conclusions.
to clarify: the dog always talks. this is only about what sheβs saying.

04.03.2026 17:22 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0again, summary from @shortcircuitij.bsky.social, and link to the opinion here:
04.03.2026 17:06 β π 11 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0Allegation: Detroit officer lied on search warrant application and lied on witness stand, resulting in man spending more than seven years in prison for cocaine that he did not deal. (Heβs released early after conviction integrity unit finds it canβt verify the officerβs testimony, for instance, whether the confidential informant actually existed.) Sixth Circuit: But officers have absolute immunity for lying on the stand, and the search warrant was for the manβs motherβs houseβwhere he disclaims a privacy interest. So you had to show the officer was lying at some other point in the process, which you didnβt argue.
on the other hand, absolute immunity is less calvinball and more grossly unconstitutional
04.03.2026 17:06 β π 65 π 11 π¬ 2 π 0summary from @shortcircuitij.bsky.social, link to opinion here:
04.03.2026 17:03 β π 8 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Man is arrested in Greenville, Miss. for allegedly stealing a car. Investigators search his phone sans warrant, discover evidence of purchases with a stolen debit card 150 miles away in Southaven. They call the Southaven police and share the information, saying they had a warrant for the search. Southaven police arrest him based on the info. Once charges are dropped, he sues. Fifth Circuit: Qualified immunity. It was clearly established at the time that a Fourth Amendment search occurs when an officer looks at material from a phone, but thereβs no case about second-hand viewings of material from a phone.
qualified immunity is calvinball
