NPR and PBS fact check their reporting and have real journalists. Fox News lies all of the time on the air and has media personalities as hosts. Yes, of course, there's no absolutes and some hosts or shows are more biased than others, and people make mistakes. Hosts show their biases unconsciously sometimes too. If your host lives in New York for instance, their views are shaped by that, vs if they live in Kentucky.

But this politicization of National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service is ridiculous and just shows how much this administration is trying to get us into a post-truth world. Facts matter!

Don't succumb to this Culture of Fear.

"We are destroying software by no longer taking complexity into account when adding features or optimizing some dimension.

And we are destroying software with complex build systems.

We are destroying software with an absurd chain of dependencies, making everything bloated and fragile.

And we are destroying software telling new programmers: “Don’t reinvent the wheel!”. But, reinventing the wheel is how you learn how things work, and is the first step to make new, different wheels."

Thanks for opening up to us so much and for what you've contributed to the world antirez! And welcome back!

After getting a lot of recruiting spam over the years, I am always trying to opt out of it. Usually when there's an uptick, some new service like Ashby that lets people spam engineers has started.

Typically these services let people opt out, but after emailing back and forth with support, it seems Ashby "uses third parties" for this data and will not let engineers stop employers from getting their email, even if they don't want to be contacted.

Just putting this out there for any engineer thinking of working for them or who notices an uptick in recruiter spam that can't be stopped. I find this behavior really sad, personally, an email with no way to unsubscribe.

Genuinely I'm curious, is there really a big market around gifting crypto, or is that market just sort of a front for criminal activity like why some retailers see a spike in gift card sales?

If you're reading this, I'm rooting for ya'll :)

Here you have a bunch of software engineers doing something none of us were brave enough to do, forming a union, fighting for their rights, striking when they're being ignored.

Then they have a hackathon to build a few things in a few days, symbolizing the power of software! Look at all the cool stuff they made in just that time.

How else would you have wanted it to go?
