How did they lose you? I am in a similar place with the Canucks. Married into the fandom years ago, but continued absolute incompetence and a toxic culture from the ownership on down has soured things a lot. Still root for individual players, but apathetic about the team as a whole.

Oh man that sucks, have very much enjoyed your work over the years. Hope you find a new gig quickly.

Links drive traffic away from the hellsite rage echo chamber and onto other websites, reducing engagement metrics which are linked to executive bonuses. Although “Elon is a fucking idiot” is probably an equally valid explanation.

Injuries, coaching change, Elias Pettersson (F) turning into a pumpkin. Max Sasson was their 2C last night. Cursed franchise, might be Etsy witch time.

One of my all time faves

For that specific player in return too, big yikes across the board

I’m on Aslan’s side even if there isn’t any Aslan to lead it

Nailed it, as usual. You focus on tech but let’s not forget the actual concrete human cost left in the wake of these absolute ghouls across all industries.

Many moons ago I interviewed at Facebook and was asked to pitch them a new feature idea. I suggested something around monitoring at-risk signals for depression and surfacing resources to help users. Now those same signals are probably used for targeting antidepressant advertising. Bleak.

Great piece here about WHY it sucks so bad. Spoiler: it’s the ads

Leafs in 6 (fingers)

I have this one hanging on my office wall as a constant reminder

Congrats man, happy for y’all

Salty, weird and absolutely not for everyone? (I ask this as an enthusiastic Vegemite enjoyer)

You don’t want to outsource your critical thinking faculties to the bullshit-generating plagiarism machine? How very dare you.
