“It's both possible, and even necessary, to simultaneously enjoy media while also being critical of its more problematic or pernicious aspects" was such a simple message that was so thoroughly and viciously rejected, but i think many of you still need to learn it

The outage was Cloudflare’s worst since 2019, and the company's co-founder and CEO says the firm is taking steps to protect against similar failures in the future.
Massive Cloudflare outage was triggered by file that suddenly doubled in size
“I worry this is the big botnet flexing,” CEO said. But outage was self-inflicted.

Family vloggers who censor spouse faces but not their child's face... Are so close to getting the point about privacy and digital footprints and yet... So far away.

Yep. Out of all the sets, the out-of-print DVDs including Mothra movies are always the priciest on eBay.
You can get a chunk of them on blu-ray for pretty cheap. Only one I think that's now out of print is the Godzilla vs King Ghidorah / Godzilla vs Mothra set.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.
At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

Soliciting information from officials is a journalist's job.
The Pentagon's new press policy would make reporters "stenographers parroting press releases, not watchdogs holding government officials accountable," explains NPR's Tom Bowman.

Opinion: Why I'm handing in my Pentagon press pass
Tom Bowman has held his Pentagon press pass for 28 years. He says the Pentagon's new media policy makes it impossible to be a journalist, which means finding out what's really going on behind the scenes and not accepting wholesale what any government or administration says.

Its protections for lawmaker safety are full of loopholes. The only part of the bill that would work is the censorship part.
