Remember, they prosecuted Aaron Swartz and drove him to suicide for hacking one system with the goal of making academic articles freely available to the public. Sam Altman hacked 1000s of sites with the goal of being a trillionaire.

not sure what things you like to do but drop in sports clubs can be good to join a group solo and get to meet more people with similar interests. The issue is that finding these takes time and effort and planning. And if you’re not often alone it’s probably not something you’d think to do in advance

I wrote this quickly at a bus stop and didn't realize it would go viral, or else I would have worded it better. But the point is that the media is too credulous about AI killing everyone in 10 years (how?) when climate change is killing people now and will only get worse (we know exactly how).

Should how much you pay in taxes determine how much your vote counts? Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke seems to think so.

Is there a specific reason you want JSON over JS?
100
凸凹 @dougalg.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
In that case it feels like you should just ship JS since json doesn’t have named exports. Since your consumer is js anyway that seems fine to me and gives you a lot more flexibility.
000
凸凹 @dougalg.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
How will people consume and use these? could you ship an “all” file which references the other via json refs? Or ship a light utility people can run which handles the assembly for them? Or a cli?

#designsystem peeps, are there any examples of major corporations using fluid responsive design in their design systems? The only example I found was cedar from REI but they don’t actually seem to use their fluid values in production. cedar.rei.com/guidelines/f...

In Thai it’s a bit schizophrenic. It says “Lake Ontario” in both Thai and English, but it also says “Lake Ontario (Lake America)”. Wow.

I don’t see why not. Put your credit card on this provider or that provider is not much different. Or you could run both for a while. Of course yes you’d be asking users to change something and might lose a few but it might be worth your while if you get more revenue and features.

High-risk ad system partners
3 high-risk ad system partners are listed within the ads.txt/app-ads.txt programmatic advertising files — each load of 404media.co and/or their apps can involve ad revenue flowing to, and data collection by, accounts registered in sanctions, adversary, secrecy-haven or elevated-risk jurisdictions (out of 98 total ads.txt / app-ads.txt partners declared by this site).
