Few tech critiques have aged as well as Phil Agre saying "Oh come on. Face recognition will work well enough to be dangerous, and poorly enough to be dangerous as well." Obviously lands well beyond face rec.

The inevitable terminus of Silicon Valley libertarianism

I know Musk is not a serious person, and I know the admin he serves is not serious also.

But, for the thousandth time, places with HIGH levels of violence DO NOT LIKE PUNITIVE POLICIES.

Those who speak "for the victims" rarely if ever really are.

Are here are just a handful of the receipts:

If certain writers are to be believed, this tool is starting to not work as well as it once did. (Consider how the Russian economy has managed to survive the sanctions that were designed to destroy it.)

Me (crying): Please...I just need to message my coworkers

Microsoft Teams Developers: No you don't. You want a Bunch of Bullshit that also changes week-to-week for some reason

You’d think crypto guys would be used to pump and dump schemes by now

I think it's a minority that wants this

broke: how dare you throw trans ppl under the bus

woke: popularists are selective by issue

bespoke: popularists make specific predictions (eg, dems talking abrego will backfire bc trump "owns" immigration) that are wrong; agenda optimization comes off insincere

That's horrible

I can't decide if "young Chinese women have small fingers" is exactly what it looks like, or if it's an attempt to avoid coming out and saying "China's great because you can use child labor!"

@tromano.bsky.social I worked the night shift circa 2003. I used to listen to the Village Voice radio station. It was so, so much better than an app.

Here are the current 246 signatories of this letter. We are all active Bluesky users, many of us from Gaza but most of us are not. We all however think this app is a better place when the voices of Palestinians in Gaza are heard.

Holy moley that brought back some memories

It's such a senseless thing to say. Like, what if one of my ancestors committed rape or any other crime? So the fuck what?

I think he pretty clearly misread the prompter here. Larger point: it’s irritating how MAGA-land makes believe that democracy promotion was the main goal and motive of invading Afghanistan and Iraq when this was only a minor driver of either war

My statement on the charges filed against me:

Today's action is the single largest mass-illegalization event in US history.

350,000 people woke up this morning with legal status, living and working here with official permission. They'll go to bed as undocumented immigrants facing deportation.

The health ministry has released a new 1,000-page document with the names, ages and other info, of 52,959 Palestinians killed in Gaza. For the first 100 pages (over 5,000 names), the age is listed at 5 years or younger. The first 18 pages the age is listed as 0 (under 1 year)

Just try to process this.
