Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?
It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

The most vulnerable people must be exposed to more vulnerability.
The Ag Committee's part of the Reconciliation Bill raises the SNAP work requirement age for able-bodied adults without dependents from 54 to 64. It also changes the definition of "dependent child" from under 18 years to under 7 years old to determine "Able-bodied adult without dependents."

It’s not just that MAGA has unmoored the American mind. They pathologize anything they consider an out-group. Rs label sexual, ethnic minorities and even just political opponents as “degenerate.”
Conspiracy theorists like RFK talk about people with autism like they’re sub-human.
It’s everywhere.

You're Not Crazy. America Has Gone Mad
American politics has become so insane that being reasonable feels like a malady, and MAGA agrees.

Per Star Tribune: "A Minnesota State Patrol spokesperson estimated about 25,000 people crowded the area"
A look at the “Hands Off!” crowd at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul today. I'd guesstimate the number of protesters to be around 10,000.

one of tech’s biggest problems is that it used to invent stuff that made people’s lives better and easier and in recent years has pivoted to “fake money for scams” and “plagiarism machine that puts you out of a job”
This is what blows me away every time. There's no one who NEEDS predictive text machines. It's not curing cancer or feeding people or producing clean energy. It's just sucking up resources, convincing CEOs to fire humans who do better jobs than it can do, and allowing founders to siphon VC money
"will require a breakthrough energy source" my dude, it requires nothing because it doesn't need to exist. you WANT a breakthrough energy source to keep playing, and you can get in line behind the people who actually need it #comemierda
