I don't think grammarly should just get to do "sorry deleting now" after ventriloquizing living and dead people without their consent to make money

Zenodot β€” Find book translations across languages Discover book translations across languages. A documentary tool for readers worldwide.

I spent 4 months trying to answer a simple question: has this book been translated into my language?
Turns out no one tracks this. Not ISBN registries. Not Amazon. Not Google. Not libraries.
So I built a tool that crosses four databases to piece it together.

My nearly full (both sides) 6' x 6' kallax bookshelf agrees.

Relatedly, so do the floor joists of every apartment I have ever lived in.

The dark grey-blue pacific ocean on the right meets a black, jagged, rock wall on the left creating white capped waves and ocean spray. The sky above and the sandy beach in the foreground both shades of grey.

I describe Ocean Shores as both a charming horror movie set and a skin cancer survivor accessible beach town.

In any case, it is lovely.

The interior of the above loaf of wheat bread resting on two slices of the same.
The crust is crisp and the crumb is uniform, springy, and cut with an awful knife that has left it shaggy in places

Confession: I do not own a bread knife despite baking a loaf near-weekly for almost 2 years now. So, please forgive the massively imprecise cuts.

A side view of a round bread loaf on a cooling wire rack. It has a deep tan colored crust that is textured by wheat husk and air bubbles from baking. Curved cuts in the crust made before baking reveal a lighter tan interior. The edges of the cut portion are raised and a much darker brown.

Curved cuts shaped like a backwards 's' in the crust made before baking reveal a lighter tan interior. The edges of the cut portion are raised and a much darker brown.

Got some locally grown and ground wheat flour for a different baked goods and decided I would try to make my first wheat loaf.

Here's hoping it tastes as good as it looks

This is your regularly scheduled reminder that white evangelicals believe that both the genocide of Palestinians and war with Iran are prerequisites to the Rapture and the subsequent establishment of Christ’s reign on earth. That’s the end goal here - complete, global Christian homogeneity.

Some of it is nearly frame for frame the Jungle Book.

if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

Cassandra from doctor who. She was once a human, but she’s had so many procedures that she’s just skin with a mouth and eyes, stretched tightly on a metal frame

One of the most tangibly lifesaving efforts of @standupforscience.bsky.social to date was to send an on-the-ground investigator to Guinea Bissau to understand the context of the unethical &CDC funded Hep B infant vaccines study.

We presented to a packed room of horrified House and Senate folks.

With the shitstorm of mess happening at all times, this story of RFK Jr's very own colonial pseudoscience trash study experimenting on extremely vulnerable African babies...that wasn't reviewed for ethics AT ALL...got buried.

We now know our efforts led to the halt of the study. Worth every dime.

This App Warns You if Someone Is Wearing Smart Glasses Nearby The creator of Nearby Glasses made the app after reading 404 Media's coverage of how people are using Meta's Ray-Bans smartglasses to film people without their knowledge or consent. β€œI consider it to ...

This is cool as hell: An app designed to ping people about nearby smartglasses.

Also cool: The creator was inspired by @404media.co coverage, a great illustration of why their journalism is so essential. This kind of work is funded by paid subscribers so become one of those if you can.

Hackers Expose Age-Verification Software Powering Surveillance Web Three hacktivists tried to find a workaround to Discord’s age-verification software. Instead, they found its frontend exposed to the open internet.

Oops. Turns out Persona, Discord’s age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel.

I became Senior VP at a multi-million dollar company at age 26. My salary was $600k. This was in 2018.
How did I do it?

Blacked out lines

CEO (my dad) promoted me to SVP.
There are no gimmicks. There are no shortcuts.
