Listen, @lataco.bsky.social set the stage for how to report on ICE. They deserve the backup!

Internally, WigglyPaint maintains three image buffers and edits them simultaneously, with different types of randomization applied for different drawing tools; many tools apply a random position offset between stroke segments or randomly select different brush shapes and sizes:

Instead of lowering prices for you, Republicans are busy dreaming up new ways to make the rich even richer.

Here’s their latest idea: sidestepping Congress to hand another giant tax cut to the top 1%.

Hard agree.

I want something pocketable, but chunky. Light enough for me to lounge with it over my head but big enough that my smedium-sized adult meat mittens are comfy.

Barstow police to step up patrols at grocery stores with millions set to lose SNAP benefits Millions of people who receive food assistance will go without benefits next month as the federal government remains shut down.

Cops know that increasing desperation, increases crimes of despair. When the government shut down, they ramped up patrols of grocery stores in anticipation of more shoplifting.πŸ€¦πŸΏβ€β™‚οΈ

If cops know that this is true, then why is their daily work *the largest source* of wealth theft from Black people?

Cops going on strike means that "ICE raids against Black people" stop for a while.

And if you're not arresting and incarcerating innocent Black men for no reason, you're not forcing their families into racist unnecessary financial hardship and crimes of despair.

* ICE cannot reduce crime in Hispanic neighborhoods, because Hispanic people can't trust ICE. Because ICE is there to hurt them

* Reducing ICE budget would decrease crime, as Hispanic people actually could call for help
πŸ™‚πŸ™ƒ

* Cops do ~10X more harm to Black people, than ICE does to Hispanic people

I can't eyeroll hard enough at the idea that kids might not be "ready" to know that LGBTQ+ exist. Do they know other people exist? Then they're ready. It's not any more complicated than explaining that some people are tall and some people are short.

The only feature of 1Password that matters is their business dies overnight if they get hacked so they’ve thought harder about security than anyone you know.

You can’t vibe code that in two evenings no matter how much you ask Claude to β€œmake it secure”

Big Art is an aesthetic that emphasizes spectacle, scale and immediate legibility. (Bear in mind, the ultimate litmus test for most of the sculptures made for Burning Man is their ability to make you stop and say, whoa although not for much longer than a minute.) Is it too much to suggest that public art in California,the West Coast in general, struggles under the weight of the region's natural beauty? That the grandeur of the landscape forces artists to attempt to match its intensity, and in so doing stumble into hyperbole? Probably. It's easy to punch down on work just because

this piece from Frieze gets to a lot of what I hate about burning man's art, specifically the imposition of the shallow aesthetics of oligarchs on the broader art landscape of SF

I think it's pretty important to understand that algorithmically-run platforms have long understood anger and argument drives much more engagement than just showing you stuff you like, and if you find yourself being made to despair at what a platform shows you, that is the system working as intended

IMO, research is political not because of the findings we unearth, but because of the way we arrive at those findings.

Surveying white people and hoping it will explain what happens with non-white people will never make sense to me.

lol as a #PhD student, I have very strong opinions (surprise, surprise) about social science findings that generalize human behavior when they only focus on white people.

As an aside, this mindset is often described as "lean" because you skip the "waste" of low fidelity work.

Buddy, no. Low fidelity is not the waste. Work in low fidelity is what prevents the high detail work from being waste. Lean is when cheap-as-free sketches are all you need to avoid that waste.

The mistake is confusing detail vs fidelity. Vibe prototypes let you add a lot of detail quickly, just like how component libraries do.

But all of that detail is essentially distraction and waste. Showing off your tasteful drop shadow on the card view is not stress-testing the merit of the solution

Seriously, landlords are business owners. No one guarantees to other business owners that they will never, ever have a bad month or two.

My 184 page digital book - Neon Pantheon: The First Three Songs is up! This is a great way to give a one-time tip and get something in return if you don't want to or can't commit to monthly support.

It includes the ENTIRE 3rd chapter so you'll be many weeks ahead of the web release.

the ones who won't do it gleefully will do it for money, and that is literally the point of capitalism and its white supremacist scaffolding. they manufactured a system of constant debt to put you in it and they put you in it to make you do what they tell you because they know you wouldn't otherwise
