What in the Lisa Frank did Mason just say? He wants to be a dolphin? All the technicolor dreams little Mason.

Um, so Mason on love is blind might be illiterate. Minnesota is one of the best educated states in the country. Or maybe I’m just being ana-ka-litical…

Glad to have gotten invited so early on. Been in a complicated relationship with tech this last year so I’ve used this account less than I expected. Here is to a great next year for Bluesky!

What's kind of amazing is that we're actually living through a huge technology revolution where our entire power grid is being replaced by solar panels and battery storage and you hear less about it in the press than you did about the totally fake "tech" of NFTs

I love tech, but the business world around it is just getting worse. What ways are there to work in tech without hating yourself these days? (I started in the late 90s and been tired)

The production and graphic design of this years #Eurovision is really great. Will be hard to top next year. Visually beautiful and stunning.

Watching the #Eurovision final. Hoping to see France, Cyprus, or Finland at the top.

I had turtle soup once and I feel terrible about it every time I see a turtle. Sorry about you cousin Jeremy.

If the US is serious about protecting people’s data from ending up in the hands of foreign adversaries, Congress should toss out the TikTok ban and instead pass comprehensive data privacy legislation to prevent the collection of data in the first place.

“This is how any new surveillance method starts out: The government says we’re only going to use this in the most extreme cases,” EFF’s @cooperq.bsky.social told the @washingtonpost.com. “But these things always end up rolling downhill.”

Guys, can we please leave “messing with people who are very obviously mentally ill, or at least mentally unwell” over on the other app, please

Bon matin 👋 Wild to see a million newskies just yesterday. I’m not sure what I’m using this for but it’s fun.

🚨INVESTIGATION: As Boeing funneled cash to lawmakers, the government allowed the company do self-inspections — despite more than A DOZEN safety warnings about the move from federal officials, experts & whistleblowers. The Lever dug up the documents 👇

We are more what we do, than what we say. We describe ourselves as a starting point. Others then decide if we were honest based on how we treat ourselves, and others.

It's difficult to be any worse, but at The Economist they manage to crank out bullshit in a regular basis. Their France coverage is especially horrible (it reads like PR for Macron) but this one is no prize either. I can never believe anyone takes this dump seriously.

VICTORY! Ring has announced it will no longer facilitate warrantless police requests for footage to Ring’s users. This comes after years of sustained pressure from EFF and other civil liberties and privacy advocates.

How do you become a VISIONARY engineering leader? I think it's about being an Ace of something Basic. So you can open up your eyes & see the signs and opportunities. Life is just so demanding if you lack understanding. Accept that no one is going to drag you up to where you (+ the product) belong.
