Long read about how manufacturing abroad resulted in the dismantling of the US manufacturing industry.

The H1B nonsense of the current administration will do the same for tech jobs.

@zed.dev I installed the Windows version last week on a Surface with an ARM processor.

This week's update says there is an ARM version now.

I checked and the updated version in running is the x64 version.

Do I have to uninstall and reinstall to get the native ARM version?

Anyone who belongs to any minority group needs to be aware that what is being done to trans people can and will be done to them. In a decade we have been stripped of our rights to exist in public spaces by a press campaign and a well funded lobby.

@mullershewrote said the following:

The amazing thing about brave people speaking out is that it inspires others to do the same by creating a permission structure.

It is super important that the truth is spoken because without the truth we have nothing.

This is a good thread and you should read it
What's up with Justice Jackson? She started making her mark and speaking out early, and some of her dissents are so pointed Kagan and Sotomayor don’t even join them. The far right is out for her, and even Republican justices are getting snarky.

So what's up? Here’s my take 🧵

CLARIFICATION :

The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline.

They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY

So spread this around

They can be texted. They can be called.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics. 

Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.

Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...

This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.
