Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Alarmist sounding, but also based on a capitalist notion that “nutrition” is a measurable quality which can be compared like this. Also tends to ignore the fact that “being able to feed mass populations” is a huge nutritional advancement. 020

Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Can I recommend Cal Newport’s explanation of the Hugging Face incident? It’s very groundingin terms of what’s really going on there, because he understands the technology enough to explain it in a non-sensationalized way: youtu.be/S0u78gg26vU?...youtu.beThe Real Story Behind the Hugging Face HackYouTube video by Cal Newport 000

Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 04/08/2026See “balance” in games. Actually not integral to fun but still better to have than not. 020
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Lin Manuel Miranda is making a gender-swapped musical of it. 040
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 17/07/2026medical malpractice insurance, the existence of which has never meant that people shouldn’t be able to sue their doctor. Obviously none of that will just end police violence. But honestly there just shouldn’t be a legal shield around anyone with uniform. And killing someone should ruin your life. 010
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 17/07/2026the article does some conflation in its metaphor around officer liability. It would not be comparable to when you have to fight your insurance for coverage because you are not the claimant. The officer is. They can fight him, but that’s not your problem. A better comparison would be 110
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Article doesn’t really talk about QI. Correct me if I’m wrong, but QI only protects officers as individuals, not the department right? So ending QI would mean the actual individual bears the responsibility. And presumably would also open a much wider range of causes of action. Further, 100
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Wouldn’t ending QI take away their money? And in turn reduce their power because they can be held at least financially accountable? Obviously it’s not the whole thing, but it would be reductive to say that there’s no value in restoring the original intent of the reconstruction congress’s KKK act. 120
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 14/07/2026Because there’s massive money to be made converting public funds into private. If you can convince some stupid/corrupt superintendent that buying your tech will make him look good, then you can get away with basically stealing money that could have gone to teacher salaries, support staff, materials. 020
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 28/06/2026It seems naive to frame this as forward-looking “to push its interests”, rather than “as a reward for pushing its interests”. 020

Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Princess Bride fans I’ll argue that Inigo is the main character in part because he’s played by a Columbo while a Columbo tells the story. Fred Savage was sometimes floated as a possible future Columbo. 060
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 10/04/2026*this is a generalization, but also I think I positive trait for someone who’s job is making sure everything adds up. Consistency > convenience. 210
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 10/04/2026In my experience as a software developer, accountants thrive on consistency and hate when processes change*. Generally, they would rather keep doing something the hard way than change how they do it. I suspect this is part of why jank persists in financial software. 210

Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 25/03/2026The basis of her work is that kids are good inside and need skills and guidance instead of control and punishment. I can’t read the article, but if it’s posturing as anti-sharing that’s a misrepresentation of the expert quoted here. 000
Devin Allen @devinallenaz.bsky.social · 25/03/2026We use a lot of resources from the person being quoted here. I think the point of this is being poorly represented. It’s a tip in context of “teaching your kid to share” and the emphasis is on saying “hey be sure to give that person a turn when you are done” and not “give them your toy” 100
