Remember, the Secretary of Transportation is absolutely terrified of this subway system. Just mentioning the ACE line will reduce him to tears.

Freaking love this city and all the people in it so much….a bunch of people went and turned the 4 train into the Polar Express giving out toys to kids along the way from the Bronx to Brooklyn….shoutout to the @newyorkers.live account on IG for doing this 🙏 www.instagram.com/reel/DSnsvWS...

I'm also expressing this because, I don't want to sound whiny, but it's rare for someone to express an interest in hanging out with me.
It usually feels like I have to put a lot of work into hanging out with people. It doesn't help when specific people seem to distance themselves on purpose.

Man, I made a new friend yesterday and I don't think I've ever had such incredible luck in terms of getting along with someone.
It's ironic too, I've been in a slump with social anxiety, but I decided to say "fuck it" and tries to socialize. 10000% worth.

abolish ice. theres no middle road on this and democrats will have to be held to it.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

I don't really understand why you can make a starter pack which is able to basically filter posts for very specific people, but you can't just intrinsically use that as a feed.
Why can't I do that? Why do I have to set up a separate server to do a feed?

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.
Just fuck you. Fuck you all.

to me
Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

NYT provides no evidence here, probably because the claim is flatly untrue. See eg recent Pew data, or many posts on the subject from @gelliottmorris.com this year

ICE agent recognized out Christmas shopping—throws tantrum when citizens profile him.
"We're trying to prevent you from kidnapping our neighbors," they say.
"I'm not doing anything but walking, leave me alone!" he yells.
"Not right now you're not—but the past 5 days you have."

What America needs is corporations to be held accountable and lobbying, even indirectly, strictly forbidden.
America was a nationalist fascist country, and still is, but now the corporations and the ultra wealthy are the ones pulling the levers. It needs to stop.

This is the one I can’t get over, because for all the handwringing about out-of-touch liberal media elites, none of them would’ve ever thought that Middle America wants to hear, “Great news, we’ve got a Harvard professor and a New York Times columnist lined up to debate whether you need God.”

Hey new followers this is why so many 10k+ accounts wrote off bsky. You can't just farm numbers we have humans here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The way stuff gets around on bsky is more like tumblr (reblogs and tags) than an algorithm pushing posts.
Like tumblr, hashtags are used for looking through people's work. Press and hold a tag to get options
You can also post links without getting deboosted

Like VRC+ is great. A bunch of clear value-adds.
Everything else has been terrible. The avatar store needed more time in the oven. Buying credits is classic bundling and dark patterns, you openly incentivize things like world-specific currencies and consumables bought with real-world money. Stop.

I'm reading that you shouldn't put a memory foam mattress on top of an old spring mattress.
But my problem with it is that it's just a bunch of people saying that you can't, but not really explaining why.
Sure, they say that it doesn't support the top mattress as it should and it can void --
