You should know that a big part of 18F's work was to make sure multi-million to multi-hundreds-of-millions dollar contracts at fed and state level didn't go to shitty enterprise IT consultancies that repeatedly delivered tech that didn't work, was late, or didn't even do what it needed to

Bra at Syklistforeningen presser på for generell 30-grense i by. I sommer fyller 50-grensen 60 år. På de årene har den tatt livet av flere hundre mennesker, deriblant svært mange barn. Skrev denne for 5 år siden. www.morgenbladet.no/ideer/kommen...

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Hi, broken record here. The same degraded information environment that led to Trump being elected is still in place. Most people still aren't being told what's happening, who's at fault, or what the effects will be. And there's zero reason to think traumatic events will "wake people up."

Reminder: we are being trained not to care about other people. It underlines the attacks on migrants, on DEI, on trans youth, on so-called "wokeness." Sure there are legitimate critiques but this is not about critiques. It's about supercharging capitalism's culture of uncare.

Nå som en del folk ser politikken og ideologien de har vært nyttige idioter for utfolde seg foran øynene sine så er det åpenbart aldri for sent å snu, men man kan ikke gjøre det og likevel tviholde på talepunktene og den oppdiktede kulturkrigen. Da har du tatt valget om å fortsette å være idiot.

I literally do this (transportation safety) for a living, my parents are proud and respect me for that, and yet I'm really really concerned about my ability to get my Dad to stop driving when he should (not that far off). This is going to be a massive challenge and shouldn't fall only to family.

What we’re witnessing in America is what happens when disordered discourse captures a political party, then the state itself. The Republican Party was the first to fall - abandoning truth for conspiracy, ideology for grievance, and policy for performative outrage.

Who could've predicted? When people spend more time walking in cities, they spend more money than if they're stuck in traffic in cars.
