When I finally leave WordPress development (which seems both inevitable and yet perpetually-unattainable) I can see me becoming some kind of expert consultant in slow, careful, deliberate, elegant software development.
Actually… not slow. I truly believe that if you are careful early on you can remove friction and increase velocity.

The 10x Programmer Myth - Simple Thread
TLDR: 10x programmers might exist, but not in the way most people think. There are a few behaviors of engineers, when mixed with a little creative storytelling, that has led us to create the myth of the 10x programmer.Justin Etheredge (Simple Thread)

in those comments she is actually describing the free speech protections afforded by Section 230 (although Rufo et al have ignored where she said those protections were "very important" and instead spun her comments as though she was criticizing it)
slashing or repealing 230 is the real anti-free speech issue here; certainly not Maher's comments supporting it

Kids don't need to get sick to be healthy
We have forgotten how many children used to die before their fifth birthdayKristen Panthagani, MD, PhD (Your Local Epidemiologist)
It’s an example of how a sensible small idea (limited exposure to benign bugs might help with allergic reactions) became wrapped up in the American no pharma, only natural cult.
I think it’s fair to say American given their aggressive pharmaceutical approach and terrible food naturally created the backlash, but threw the baby out with the bathwater.

Truth. Note 'deliberately', which is correct. Malignant narcissists feel no shame or empathy, and are sadistic.

If you're going to make a big deal about Bill Barr supporting Trump in this year's election, at least mention that the side channel Barr set up for Russian disinformation on Hunter Biden in 2020 ended up framing Joe Biden.emptywheel

The big problem is that the people who are paying the costs are not the same who make money by keeping things as they are.
We're asking a transfer of money from rich people to poor people, and we can't have that.
This is why little will be done.

I was just browsing this page about the update to Microsoft’s Trustworthy Computing project in 2012 https://news.microsoft.com/2012/01/12/at-10-year-milestone-microsofts-trustworthy-computing-initiative-more-important-than-ever/ and noticed the link to the Trustworthy website: http://www.microsoft.com/twc
I saw that link doesn’t work, so I put it in the Wayback Machine and found out the Trustworthy Computing website broke many years ago, and MS just left it broke.

I think what happened here is the Trustworthy Computing website was hijacked inside MS to become the “Trust Centre” website, as it has the same layout - except security was removed as a category from navigation (entire menu shown) and link broke.
Instead it’s essentially a marketing page about product upsell.
I feel bad for Charlie and Bret as they have a boulder to move up a cliff. There is a link to Microsoft Secure Future Initiative blog, at least, if you can find the site.

dunno. i think the 'proper perspective' would be that the far right is indoctrinating kids to think that the only perspective that matters is the one coming from rich, white people.
way worse than just a rejection of education, IMO
