Mainstream Respectable opinion is that people joking about a bad person's death represents a culture of cruelty, but really it represents a culture of impunity. It's a coping mechanism for watching someone do evil their whole life and never seeing consequences

what’s with the eyeball | patreon.com/lubchansky
PANEL 1: MATTIE, standing outside a building that has a huge glowing eyeball affixed to the door. A GUY leans out the window.
MATTIE: EXCUSE ME?
GUY: Yeah?

PANEL 2: Closer in on the GUY and the eyeball. He gestures a thumb at it.
MATTIE (VO): What's with the big eyeball?
GUY: A wizard sold me that – it watches every single thing that goes on and tells me!
GUY: I think the wizard can see it too. I guess. He wasn't clear on that.

PANEL 3: The first shot again. The EYEBALL speaks. The GUY shrugs. MATTIE spreads her arms wide.
EYEBALL: ANGRY WOMAN OUTSIDE
MATTIE: Isn't that a violation of the social contract?
GUY: I guess so!

PANEL 4:  Close in on the GUY. He holds up a scroll that says "Special" in ornate script.
GUY: No, no. Wizard also sold me an exception to that.
EYEBALL (VO): WOMAN MEAT GOOD FOR SPELL COMPONENTS

New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

Even if they don't keep the photo, they likely keep the facial reconstruction data and can use that to build a facial profile of you, allowing them to track you on security footage with higher certainty

Hey Raleigh folks, it looks like ICE has maybe gotten Apple Maps and Google Maps to remove the listing for their local operations center. If you want to write them a letter, here’s the address they don’t want you to see: 140 Centrewest Ct, Cary, NC 27513

responsive web design is unique as an artistic medium because you’re designing for every potential canvas size at once. very few other things are like that

Marco Rubio just made the argument, bold faced, not a mistake an intentional statement, that at any time the US can revoke your visa and then you are instantly here illegally and they can arrest you, deport you, torture you, all without any due process. That means the United States is simply unsafe

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer. These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP. You can follow his remarkable reporting here👇 www.instagram.com/ethanswopeph...

Nearly 7 years ago, I blogged about Houdini + the CSS Paint API. codersblock.com/blog/say-hel... It promised devs the power to extend CSS functionality by writing custom "worklets" in JavaScript. 💪 I loved the idea, but the API itself is STILL not cross-browser.

Say Hello to Houdini and the CSS Paint API
I haven’t been this excited about a new browser tech in a long time. Houdini is an ambitious project to give developers more power over CSS than we’ve ever had...

most of you were probably wondering what it looks like to leave a pinhole camera exposure going for 8 years (preferably by sitting it on a roof and forgetting about it). well--here you go! 🔭
8 year exposure, through a pinhole camera, of the southern sky (Regina Valkenborgh). It shows the sun streaking through the sky in layers of curving arc as the seasons change.

This is Mr. Sparks. He’s a little shy when it comes to his sits, but honestly we think they’re brilliant. 14/10 impeccable pawsture
a brown block-headed dog with a big white patch on his chest sits on some carpet and looks sheepishly up at the camera. the pup’s front paws are down by his sides, and his back legs are extended straight out between his front paws, pressed together in a pike.another angle of our pibble friend and his spectacular sit. he’s at a 45-degree angle now, but still closely watching the camera with his eyes. his legs look very polite in their tight little formation, and his tail is curled around his left side to touch his left front paw.

So Unity recently decided that the tiny startup I dayjob for needed to upgrade to Industry at 5k/year/seat. We had no chance to contest it because they would have killed our only product. They even threatened people we worked with in the past with the same. It's not just us. DO NOT USE UNITY!

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing. They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays. The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k. www.businessinsider.com/denver-basic...

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.
