I clearly lost this battle, but i still am blown away that apps use notifications to show me ads. It feels like such a violation of trust.

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:
18f.org
We're not done yet | 18F

Everything I own goes to another place. Often underneath a thing.

If you’re in an institution doing any kind of DEI work, the most important thing to do right now is simply call it something else. Change it to “Community Outreach” & then keep on doing the same important work. When they outlaw Community Outreach rebrand it as “Strategic Partnerships,” rinse/repeat.

ABOLITION, NOT REFORM

What is happening tonight in NYC is not madness. It's not overreach. It is EXACTLY how police were created to behave, EXACTLY what their purpose has always been.

This isn't a case of the Big Apple having a few bad apples. Police are a really, really effective rotting fungus.

Seriously, web devs stop disallowing paste into text fields. It increases errors, is user hostile and shits in the face of accessibility.

Game devs are tired. Writers are tired. Comic book creators are tired. Musicians are tired. Actors are tired. Every industry that produces media you love has been ravaged by a parasitic executive class who want to starve creators to feed some shitcunt's desire for a seventh house

I got a seven day ban on Reddit for reporting a screenshot of a racist tweet threatening violence.

I just learned about this site. It’s a place where underrepresented folks can share companies that are safe and unsafe. www.ourblacklist.org

Hey guys, did a woman say something on the internets and you've got "strong opinions" about it? Have you tried shutting the fuck up? Do you feel like you need to play "devil's advocate"? How about shut the fuck up? Have an overwhelming urge to "engage in discourse"? Instead, try shut the fuck up.
