A screenshot of an X post with a black background and white text, featuring a "Being Liberal" logo in the top right corner. The post lists products launched by Donald Trump, including TrumpRX, Trump Gold Card, Trump Mobile, Trump Coin, and Trump Social/Truth Social. It also mentions upcoming projects: Trump Golf Resort in Qatar, Trump Plaza in Saudi Arabia, and Trump Tower in UAE. Additional claims include Melania having a crypto coin, Jared buying EA, and Trump accepting a $40M jet from Qatar. The post ends with a sarcastic remark about the Bushes and Clintons being the "swamp" and questions about grocery bills, salaries, and the feeling of getting poorer while the president and his family get richer.

And this is just a small sample of the scams and the grift!

Dear Every Company:

STOP CHARGING PEOPLE FOR AI BULLSHIT THEY DIDN’T ASK FOR, DO NOT WANT, AND SOMEHOW CANNOT OPT OUT OF.

Your bad choices are not our problem.

Just stop it.

Backtrack. I promise we won’t make too much fun of you.

FFS. Stop it.

Everything about AI sucks, but this is the thing that worries me the most. Artistic and creative theft is terrible. Replacement of jobs and the production of media sludge is terrible. But a complete and utter collapse of the educational system will just speed up our destruction exponentially.

A meme from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. In the top panel, one man labeled "literally every company" hands a plate labeled "AI" to a man labeled "me." In the bottom panel, the man labeled "me" nonchalantly tosses the plate down the hallway, discarding it with casual disdain while the first man watches.

Type 1 diabetes requires insulin, and it cannot be treated with diet. Prior to the discovery of insulin protocols, people died of the disease in childhood because it could not be controlled with diet. Starvation level diet kept them alive to about 13 max.

Type 2 diabetes has other medications and

A post from Armand Domalewski (@ArmandDoma
) on X reads: "the left photo has a convicted criminal; the right one does not." Below, a quote from The White House (@WhiteHouse
), posted 17 hours ago, says: "We are not the same." The post includes two images: the left shows Donald Trump in a suit with a red tie, sitting at a desk with U.S. and presidential flags in the background, being handed an item by a woman in black; the right shows two men, one in a plaid shirt and white cap, sitting at an outdoor restaurant table with water glasses and a coffee cup, engaged in conversation.

Skadden Resignation
Today the executive partner of my former firm sent us all an
"update" that attempted to convince some of the best minds in the legal profession that he did us a solid by capitulating to the Trump administration's demands for fealty and protection money. Fellow Skadden attorneys: If you agree with Jeremy London's position that the firm should not engage in "illegal DEI discrimination," should devote prestigious Skadden Fellows to the Trump administration's pet projects, and should help "politically disenfranchised groups who have not historically received legal representation from major national law firms," (taking into account the robust pro bono work that major national law firms already do), then by all means continue working there. But if that email struck you as a craven attempt to sacrifice the rule of law for self-preservation, I hope you do some soul-searching over the weekend and join me in sending a message that this is unacceptable (in whatever way you can). As one of my more eloquent former colleagues put it:
"Do not pretend that what is happening is normal or excusable. It isn't."
There is only one acceptable response from attorneys to the Trump administration's demands: The rule of law matters.
The rule of law matters. As an attorney, if my employer cannot stand up for the rule of law, then I cannot ethically continue to work for them.

You might want to stop running atop

My life as a mercenary sysadmin can be interesting. Sometimes I find things, and sometimes I hear things. Now and then I say things.

Right now, I think it's probably best if you uninstall atop. I don't mean just stopping it, but actually keep it from being executed.

I'm not talking about the OG top, or htop, iftop, or anything else with a "top" name. Just atop.

I can go into why another time.

An education, which isn't limited to the textbooks being sold to students, is how you learn what questions to ask, and what answers to challenge.

LLMs are biased data, not knowledge, generation machines and function closer to a search engine than a person who can reason.

The end of the British Empire as a superpower can be pretty easily marked in history; the Suez Crisis, 1956. An act of imperial arrogance and despotism that the world, rightly, railed against.
The jump from aggressor to pariah is a short one.

DevOps does not require having every single role in every single person.

Several orgs I worked for had multiple dev teams serviced by a handful of dedicated Ops folks. Who where near the teams, accessible and always in-the-loop/know.
