Any other tech folks out there have any advice for how to work in an industry that is actively participating in a genocide, without losing what remains of your mind?
Anyone out there happen to be aware of any non-complicit cloud providers?
The big 3 are out.
DigitalOcean?

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me

Can America please please fuck all the way off with date formats that are inconsistent, and assuming everywhere else uses your stupid system.
DD/MM/YYYY or YYYY/MM/DD are fine. There is either an increase in the units or a decrease.
MM/DD/YYYY is just stupid.

I absolutely love it when I hear something in a familiar piece of music that I've never really noticed before.
I have listened to Hey Joe by Jimi Hendrix more times than I could count since I was a teenager and never took notice of the backing vocals before this morning.

No, Samhain is not the word for Halloween.
It's the word for November, and the festival on the 1st of November.
Oíche Shamhna is Halloween, literally November Night.
And if you want to get properly into the old traditions of it, Sean-Samhain is on the 12th of November.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same
