When Yahoo bought Flickr and delicious, was that anti-competitive, or does it only count if it works?

getting a laser printer was 100% worth the up-front cost. you know how much ink i've had to buy in the last year and a half? none ink

Right? They're not even that expensive anymore either! I've been carrying around mine for like 6 years now. I think I've bought one replacement toner.

Upload is a comedy but it’s like a legit passive critique of tech eating up everything and finding a way to charge for anything. Those without funds are forced to live at 10 minutes on the hour and you can’t even get clothes in some cases.

I watched through the first season of that wayyyyy too fast

When will standards folks realize that "spec" is short for "specification" and not "speculation"?

Use the device flow for this, right @aaronpk?

Device flow is a good option for this. But the regular auth code flow and either automatically launching or just showing the URL to click on works too. Downside of that is the CLI app needs to spin up a web server to catch the callback. Device flow doesn't have that requirement

One key skill to develop in the Zoom era: performing grimaces and skeptical expressions intense enough to steer the conversation without having to say anything 😛😖😬😮🤔

Need to patch Lighthouse to not have expiring tokens when attempting to send out Webmentions. I’m using JWTs (only because this inbuilt system is using that by default) and it’s a bit annoying to have this huge token string. Might consider implementing a simpler token that keeps data on the server so the client knows less

JWTs leaking info to clients is underrated

Every time I get on a video call and people see my video looks great, the first thing I get asked is which camera I’m using, but the camera is the least important in the whole setup. Lights are the main thing, angle, lens and how far my background is contribute a lot to the look.

There's a saying that writing software is more like tending a garden than constructing a building -- things constantly change.

But the more I learn about how buildings evolve, I think this process is actually a perfect analogy for designing software!

“I don’t like the color of that wall in my house”

“Thanks for the feedback! We’ll consider repainting everyone’s walls if enough house owners agree with you!”

The lack of agency we have over our software would seem absurd in other contexts.

Mixer and TikTok are not analogous. Mixer was an attempt to take market share from a successful, loved, market-dominant platform with nothing but money. TikTok /is/ the successful, loved, market-dominant platform. It would be hard for Microsoft to fuck up TikTok’s trajectory.

My father sent me a similarly worded email a few weeks ago. Apparently I’m “indoctrinating the children into a broken lifestyle”, and then cited many of the same “concerns”. Which I honestly thought were selling points. Just wait until he finds out two of them are gay! 🏳️‍🌈❤️🤷🏻‍♀️😂
