So I wrote this, and it's the best thing I've ever written.
"We will resolve disputes in favor of protecting users as a whole."
That right there. That tells everyone how Trust & Safety is going to act, and it gives T&S profound latitude. They're not there to rules-lawyer or first-amendment.

Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

It is our understanding that Bluesky in its current state is largely a social media platform for people who have a problem with authority. Out of respect for you all, we will not attempt to engage in the usual "brand building" of establishing a hollow parasocial relationship with our followers.

jj init — Sympolymathesy, by Chris Krycho
Jujutsu (`jj`) is a new version control system from a software developer at Google. It seems promising, so I am giving it a try on a few personal projects.
