This is not new, unfortunately. Itโ€™s been happening since I was a kid. Yes, a checkpoint on I-10 - the whole highway.

This is what happens when you hire people for loyalty rather than competence. You have to lower your standards. Itโ€™s affirmative action for sycophants.

Turns out loyalty is only a virtue if the object of the loyalty is worthy of it.

The argument from Alex about Appleโ€™s monopoly status and store practices is so tiresome. (And I largely agree with Alex!)

Just turned off the latest episode of MacBreak Weekly 37 minutes in. Time to retire this argument. Itโ€™s decided. Apple lost Move on. @leolaporte.me

Someone once said NextDoor is the social network for dogs if they could type. Itโ€™s always โ€œwhatโ€™s that noise?โ€ and โ€œwhoโ€™s that stranger?โ€ which is exactly what I imagine my dogs would text other neighborhood dogs.

The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that theyโ€™re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

Endemic black faced sheathbill looking down on penguin masses on Heard Island

Sen. Peter Squelch (Black Faced Shealthbill party) addressing congress today. He is attempting to champion a resolution to sell penguin eggs in return for tariff renegotiation. So far, heโ€™s received cold shoulders and some Senators whoโ€™ve even flipped the bird, in a typically polite Ice House.

A sharp downward trend in the S&P 500 stock index is shown over the dates April 2 to April 4, with values falling from above 5,600 to around 5,200. The chart shows a particularly steep drop on April 4. On the right side of the image, a cutout of Donald Trump is superimposed, pointing toward the falling line with a smirk. Below him is the caption โ€œI DID THAT!โ€ in bold text.

It's ten times worse today. The abstraction of the Temu-quality squarespaceish UI builder makes it impossible for me to use my CSS knowledge to fix something as simple as padding. Absolutely awful for anyone who who's what they're doing. (Unless what they know is the WordPress UI.)

Many years ago when I was a front-end developer, I hated WordPress because it made so many assumptions about development and made it hard to start from scratch with a template of my own design.

All these years later, installing it for a family blog, I can say I hate it so much more. (1/2)
