It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:

It’s insane to me that we’re just… letting non-government personnel rifle through government code.
The SysAdmins have to be losing their fucking minds right now.

My sister in law (+husb) don't respect my 🏳️⚧️daughter's pronouns. They avoid pronouns rather than deliberate mis-gendering. They consider this "love" (for someone whom they obviously have no basic respect).
Now their daughter needs help with HTML/CSS/JS.
And I will help because I am not a monster.

I was interviewed at CES this morning. We mentioned that consumers will decide whether they want to be on a platform that is “unfiltered free speech “ or “ moderated”. I mentioned that I loved @bsky.app , and spontaneously people started clapping 🔥.

This is one of my favorite little inventions/projects. It’s called the Gigasauris and it holds SD cards, Micro SD Cards, and switch games in a fun way instead of an “all over your desk” way
It’s made to be an easy jigsaw project you can build with scrap
