Your weather app gets its info because of NOAA. Your mail arrives at your home because of USPS. Your plane navigates the skies because of the FAA. Your food is safer -- and we get alerts when it isn't -- because of USDA. You hear about earthquakes *worldwide* because of USGS.

platform engineering is just fraggle rock for engineering teams

This is such a great point because here we have the world’s richest man and the president of the United States and they’re both idiots, and there’s a cognitive dissonance where one can argue “they can’t be idiots, look what they’ve accomplished.” But yet still they are idiots

it's my boy @sogrady.org's birthday today. please be sure to send your best regards.

Come work with me and the awesome crew at Pomerium!

Bought it yesterday. Highly recommend.

Obviously Atlassian is investing heavily in making JIRA slower.

This makes it sounds like someone was making a Llama-based tool to identify China-unfriendly social media posts, used OpenAI to debug the code, and OpenAI banned them because of the code they were writing to use Llama, as opposed to abusing OpenAI.

China seems to have used Llama to build an AI surveillance tool to collect anti-China social media posts, and presumably intimidate at least some of the people who posted them. The power of open weights www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/t...

nothing like getting up at the crack of dawn to go to the airport without any coffee and the tsa agent looks at my id and says, and i quote, ‘uh-oh’

If i were president i would issue an executive order stating that everyone had to love each other and listen to CDs and then I'd push through universal healthcare

If we’re going to war, fine. Let’s go to war. Is cheesecake a pie or a cake?

Many, massive congratulations!!

when I was younger I thought the subplot of Ender’s Game in which Ender’s siblings shitpost themselves into running the world was the least realistic part of the book I am coming around to the idea that it was by far the most realistic

NEW — 19-year-old DOGE engineer Edward Coristine turns out to be the grandson of former KGB spy Valery Martynov, who played a role in a sprawling 1980s espionage saga. www.jacobsilverman.com/p/prominent-...

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center say results of a Phase I trial of an mRNA vaccine aimed at preventing pancreatic cancer show promise. The vaccine PREVENTED the cancer from coming back in patients who had already received treatment for MORE THAN three years. 🧪🧵⬇️

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

This truth. And it correctly describes the Enshittification of everything.

Repost if you have tinnitus.

I don't think we're talking enough about the fact that the pressure to remove DEI from science means women die.

WIRED health & biotech writer here. If you're a USDA employee working on the government's response to the H5N1 bird flu outbreak and would like to speak securely about what's happening at the agency, please reach out to me on Signal at emullin.06. I can honor requests for anonymity.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

People who still think, at this point, that doing the "normal" things like writing your congressional representative, as if we had or have had a functional government, will actually make a difference is just like people who believe that you can pray cancer away

Nazi punks fuck off for sure but I'd love for nazis who like other types of music and ones who don't like music at all to also fuck off

I’m in a few groups for women in aviation and I haven’t seen this much sadness and despair in many years. Being a female flyer has never been a walk in the park but things were getting better. Now all of a sudden things are getting worse again, especially for our sisters in the US.

Looked this up. Spot anything about the publication date?

As a heads up, @roomy.chat will be under maintenance as we add in new features and beef up our core foundations 🚧 If you still want the early alpha experience, come hangout at dev.roomy.chat (Note: chats will be broken once in a while, so they may need to be deleted as we update the app)

One of the biggest mind-bends is this: Atlassian, the creator of JIRA, founded 23 years ago is NOT profitable. This is despite generating $4.6B in revenue (!!) Linear, founded in 2019, building “the modern JIRA for startups/scaleups” IS profitable. Make it make sense

My @infoworld.bsky.social explainer into the science of Microsoft's Majorana 1 quantum processor went live overnight. A lot of thoughts condensed into 1500 words on what it is, how it works, and why it's a really important step on the road to quantum computing. www.infoworld.com/article/3828...

Meta has always been a shitty company doing shitty things for society as a whole www.businessinsider.com/meta-approve... . Honestly if you have an account, close it.

It’s over for Alexa and Amazon! Hello again www.home-assistant.io @paulusschoutsen.nl

Why are we letting them frame it as “laid off?” If you get laid off in the private sector, you get a letter that says it was no fault of your own (making it easier to get jobs in the future or unemployment), and also a severance check which is often months of pay. Without that you’re just fired.

Time to start slapping these all over the place 👀 @printinkling.bsky.social they look great, thanks again!
