🎄 Advent thread: Every day until Christmas I'll be posting a new clothing design. The theme is “monochrome pride”: celebrating pride but without all the bright colors. 1st December: Am Trans.

The Trans Am logo but it reads Am Trans instead.

It was a revolutionary technology that came seemingly out of nowhere. It asked us to change our mental model. But we found it had much fewer applications than it claims, and it doesn't quite do the things we hoped it would, in the ways we anticipated. A solution looking for a problem. I'm talking, of course, about Shadow DOM. In this lecture--

I may have asked this before but I'm still not finding a good solution: Where can I host large(ish) media files, like audio samples, and link to them directly, in code? Looking for something cheap (preferably free), simple to set up (not Github's LFS nonsense) and not liable to incur added bandwidth charges where there's a lot of traffic.

Git is easy to learn, but difficult to main.

The easiest way to detect an AI video is to determine if it's *worth* watching. The next time you're watching a Youtube short of a monkey escaping a zoo on a space hopper, stop asking questions like, "did his middle and index fingers switch places at 00:21?" Instead ask: "what the fuck am I doing with my life?"

Sometimes I'll start dunking on people and ripping into their shit technologies. And liberals will be like "that's harsh, what have they actually done to harm people?" and INVARIABLY they end up being fascists or adjacent. The thing is, I can tell FROM the tech.

If you hate the idea of your job becoming about cleaning up horrendous "vibe coded" output, spare a thought for accessibility specialists. They've been doing that all along.

Turning Point USA is a pro-gun and anti-vax propaganda machine. Its founders are both dead: Bill Montgomery from Covid and Charlie Kirk from gun violence. I'm just stating facts.

I had a conversation with some folks recently and we diverged on what I was completely settled science. I need a larger sample size. So. Ahem... when you wipe, do you do it sitting down or standing up?

Remembering Adolf Hitler: a family man and dog lover. He expressed ardent opinions about certain demographics, but is not known to have harmed any of them with his own hands. After suffering many assassination attempts by leftists, he was ultimately killed by an extremist antisemite.
