Because if you are selling a product that necessarily attempts to con one person into believing they are engaging with another person when they are not, you’re not just ruining education. You’re dismantling society’s foundations in social trust. 229662
Daniel Bergey @bergey.bsky.social · 13/11/2025A few hundred, relative to 30k total, and about 3k turnover in the preceding year. Sounds plausible, but maybe not newsworthy. 000
Daniel Bergey @bergey.bsky.social · 03/03/2025I remain skeptical that engineers will investigate every alert if experience shows that most alerts are false alarms. Hard to build reliable systems that way. 020
Reposted by Daniel BergeyJoel S. @joelhs.bsky.social · 21/02/2025Exceptionalizing antisemitism as the only acceptable form of bigotry to care about on campus is not only unfair to so many other marginalized groups who face bigotry; it's ultimately bad for Jews, too. Keeping Jews as the sole protected class of the government never works out for us in the end. 210120

I am convinced, however many years from now it takes, we will look back at this barbaric system with the same antipathy as some countries' systems of internal passports and "papers please" 07611
Daniel Bergey @bergey.bsky.social · 24/12/2024I first read the scare quotes as implying “it’s not actually chocolate, it’s the body of Christ” and it was way better that way 020
Daniel Bergey @bergey.bsky.social · 23/12/2024I wonder if congestion pricing will affect suburban attitudes to high density housing near commuter rail stations. Doesn’t help with the “I got mine / no more room” mentality, but maybe with the attitude that people who ride the train belong to a lower social class? 051

Daniel Bergey @bergey.bsky.social · 10/12/2024“dining sheds are legal if they have wheels” is a weird loophole, but I guess we can roll with it. Maybe a few pickup trucks with flowerbeds double parked on alternate sides as traffic calming? 171

Daniel Bergey @bergey.bsky.social · 30/11/2024I had to teach high school students about files circa 2015. Took five minutes in the first week of class. Kind of wish I’d pushed for that first week of html lessons to become part of the non-elective curriculum for every student. 010

Daniel Bergey @bergey.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Finally read Joe Duffy’s retrospective on Midori OS this weekend. Cool ideas about exceptions, actors / message passing.

Daniel Bergey @bergey.bsky.social · 23/11/2024I think GReader being mainstream made blogging a good way to reach readers. Its popularity also discouraged alternatives (not counting hobby projects and tools for programmers). When it closed, readers and writers alike moved to newsletters or proprietary platforms instead of other rss readers. 000
