@sharkfucker420 It’s a good thing “A Modest Proposal”[1] wasn’t titled “The Benefits of Cannibalism” because I guess people would have taken that at face value as well.

@fossilesque Don’t forget those of us in the back row because we slept in and got there late!

@P4ulin_Kbana @potentiallynotfelix fw = fuck with. It means they like it.

@HawlSera I do recognize that tomboys, buff women, etc are worth representing, (and we should push for their inclusion) but that’s not what I’m talking about - I mean people who look like “men” but use pronouns other than he/him.

@HawlSera @chloyster I mean, I absolutely know people who use she/her but present very masc, and vise-versa. They may be relatively uncommon, but so are trans people in general and we’re still worth representing. Not to mention non-binary people who have relatively binary gender presentation. Your experience is absolutely not universal.

@chloyster @alyaza I had no idea the series was developed by Humongous! That studio made so many good games that I’m nostalgic for.

“Why didn’t she just keep her job, give us part of the wages to pay somebody else to do it?” he asked. “That is the thing that the hyper-liberalized economics wants you to do. The economic logic of always prioritizing paid wage labor over other forms of contributing to a society is to me … a consequence of a sort of fundamental liberalism that is ultimately gonna unwind and collapse upon itself.”

“It’s the abandonment of a sort of Aristotelian virtue politics for a hyper-market-oriented way of thinking about what’s good and what’s desirable,” he added. “If people are paying for it and it contributes to GDP and it makes the economic consumption numbers rise, then it’s good, and if it doesn’t, it’s bad … that’s sort of the root of our political problem.”

It’s really funny when conservatives are like “See the problem with Wokeness is <describes capitalism>”

@theangriestbird

“Tim Walz is a weird radical liberal,” the MAGA War Room account posted on X, formerly Twitter. “What could be weirder than signing a bill requiring schools to stock tampons in boys’ bathrooms?”

It’s so funny watching conservatives attempt to turn the"weird" thing around.

@kid TL;DR: If you have a secret variable in your CI/CD pipeline and it’s written to a file that subsequently gets artifacted, anyone who can access that artifact can also read your secret variable.

Feels like a “no shit” moment but I guess I can see how someone could make this mistake in a more complicated setup than the example in the blog.

@solitaire @erev Jesus, I had completely forgotten “tits or gtfo.” Every now and then I get hit with a reminder of how much more pervasive that kind of thing was as little as 10-20 years ago and it throws me for a loop.

@agressivelyPassive You should still clean your kitchen though, that’s my point.

@agressivelyPassive @technom That’s a self-fulfilling prophecy, IMO. Well-structured commit histories with clear descriptions can be a godsend for spelunking through old code and trying to work out why a change was made. That is the actual point, after all - the Linux kernel project, which is what git was originally built to manage, is fastidious about this. Most projects don’t need that level of hygiene, but they can still benefit from taking lessons from it.

To that end, sure, git can be arcane at the best of times and a lot of the tools aren’t strictly necessary, but they’re very useful for managing that history.

@SubArcticTundra Because the flavor goes into the water! That’s why soup broth tastes good. Try chopping up half an onion, boiling for 10 minutes in a pot with enough water to cover them, then taste the water.
