“It’s proper to blame President Trump…But Trump’s our president. If Americans in both parties don’t do their utmost to check and overturn his actions, we will all have been part of the betrayal of Ukraine. We will all have been part of a betrayal of America.” www.thebulwark.com/p/four-dimen...

The Ukrainians are extremely capable warfighters. It is a travesty that the current American administration is not supporting the Ukrainians as Americans should. It is the right thing to do. I stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇦

Today's Planet: Sunset on Mars. Imaged by the Curiosity Rover. Sunsets on Mars appear blue because the fine dust in the Martian atmosphere scatters the red wavelengths of the Sun's light. This is the opposite of sunsets on Earth, where the atmosphere scatters the blue wavelengths. #thedailyplanet

The uber-rich nazi and the felonious fascist-in-chief… Growing up in America, I never imagined that the White House would become synonymous with white supremacy and bigotry in the 21st century. I know now that democracy is indeed fragile, and American exceptionalism is but a footnote in history.

The West needs to get that the Ukrainians can win if properly supported.

The U.S. should do whatever it takes to give Ukraine all of the support it needs - weapon systems, intelligence, training, - short of direct intervention against Russians by American military personnel.

It was inevitable that gullible MAGA cultists would be disconcerted when their false messiah turned on them by implementing Project 2025. 🙄

Have once upon a time been a Rails dev, and now focusing on #rustlang instead, I was not surprised to find something like Loco. @steveklabnik.com what are your thoughts about it? Is it something you would use yourself, or is the WAY in Rust just different? github.com/loco-rs/loco

The first election I voted in was 1988, and I have always identified as an independent. Throughout my life, I have voted for both Democrats and Republicans. Since 2016 it’s been only Democrats, because MAGA Republicans have corrupted their party. When Republicans find honor again, I’ll reevaluate.

In mid-December I temporarily disabled my Meta accounts because I needed a break - even before Facebook went X. Don’t miss them, and may not go back. Loving Bluesky though, now that everyone is showing up, and am likely to adopt Flashes once available. No more Big Tech controlled by billionaires!

This has been happening quite a lot over the last few years, and speaking as an AI / Autonomy Research Engineer at a major aerospace company, AI in avionics systems IS a significant contributor to the answer. Speaking as a pilot, automation is safer than humans. viewfromthewing.com/they-came-wi...
