Looks like I’ll be putting away my Daring Fireball and Accidental Tech Podcast shirts for a while. It’s a pity, they were comfy shirts and I thought I was supporting good people with them. See, Marco Arment and John Gruber have, for some reason, decided that now’s the time to let their privilege flag fly, and it’s not a good look: > And I can’t help but feel that maybe we were better off before we knew > everyone’s hot takes on everything. > > The town coffee shop was just a coffee shop. We weren’t publicly shamed for > going there because one of the owners was an ass. It was just a place to hang > out with our friends. “Pizza is an open-faced sandwich” is a _hot take_. “Chicago-style pizza is a casserole” is a _hot take_. “Brown people are poisoning the blood and soil of Europe and must be removed” is _Nazi shit_ and _that’s_ the sort of thing that DHH, the creator Rails and that slop Linux distribution, has been saying. > If I learn today that my neighbors have political views that my “side” > considers unacceptable and unforgivable, should I be able to have dinner at > their house, shovel their snow, or even greet them outside? > > Should I be condemned for supporting or associating with them in non-political > contexts? > > Should I be condemned for not publicly condemning them myself? Yes, if those “political views” are _Nazi shit_ that’s _exactly_ what should happen. These are not views about which reasonable people can disagree, like tax policy. We’re talking about views that deny the fundamental humanity of some people and whose existence is a call for violence. If Marco or John were not white, straight, cisgender men, they might have realized they had to put a lot more work into deciding whether Bob and Van were safe neighbors. If they were black, brown, Asian, Jewish, indigenous, gay, trans, or women, they would have known that everyone you interact with at anything more than the most superficial level needs to be vetted for subtle signs that they don’t actually see you as a fellow human being–or that even if they see _you_ that way, they may see your friends or family differently. They should ask their respective wives whether they ever had to be concerned, when they lived on their own, whether any of their neighbors might be a misogynist or worse, or whether they were able to just give straightforward trust to them, and why. It might shed some light on an unfortunate aspect of the human experience that they missed out on. As for me, I’m _glad_ people are finally openly stating that they’re Neo-Nazis and fellow travelers, and that other people are stating that they’re comfortable breaking bread with and supporting Neo-Nazis. It’s important to know because the first step to rooting them out–and make no mistake, they _must_ be rooted out–is seeing them clearly. There’s a German saying: > If there’s a Nazi at the table and ten other people sitting there talking to > him, you got a table with eleven Nazis._ Don’t be one of those ten, no matter how nice you may find that one particular Nazi personally.

**CALIFORNIA’S MANDATE** requiring later start times for middle and high schools is already yielding results, with students sleeping more, reporting better mental health and earning higher math and English scores, according to a new study. The new working paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research examines the effects of Senate Bill 328, California’s statewide mandate for later school start times. The law, which went into effect in 2022, requires most middle schools to start no earlier than 8 a.m. and high schools no earlier than 8:30 a.m. ### Continue reading for**FREE** **This is NOT a paywall.** We just want to make sure you’re a human.

Apple today announced it will hold its annual iPhone-centric event on Wednesday, September 9 at 10 a.m. Pacific Time. In the U.S. and several other countries, Apple used "Surprise and Shine" as its tagline for the event, but in other countries, the tagline isn't a literal translation. Here are the different taglines Apple is using on its regional websites. * **U.S., UK, NZ, Australia, Ireland, India** - Surprise and Shine. * **Canada, French** - Des surprises dans l'air, or surprises in the air. * **Brazil** - Surpreendente e brilhante, or surprising and brilliant. * **Mexico and Latin America** - Sorpresas listas para brillar, which means surprises ready to shine. * **Germany, Austria, Switzerland** - Staunen und strahlen, or something like wonder/amazement and radiate/shine. * **Spain** - Un rayo de wow, which means a ray of wow or a flash of wow. * **France, Belgium** - Un jour nouveau. Bientôt. The French phrase is a little different, translating to a new day, soon. * **Italy** - L'alba di nuove sorprese, or the dawn of new surprises. * **Denmark** - Det bliver solstrålende, or something like it's going to be brilliant/sunny. Solstrålende merges two words that mean sunbeam and brilliant. * **Norway** - Tid for gode overraskelser, time for good surprises. * **Sweden** - Förväntan. Förundran. Anticipation and wonder. * **Finland** - Uudenkoitto, which translates to a new dawn or a new beginning. * **Poland** - Zdumienia i olśnienia, which is surprise and amazement, or astonishment and revelation. * **Hungary** - Ragyogó meglepetés, radiant/brilliant surprise. * **Portugal** - O despontar de surpresas brilhantes, which translates to the dawn of brilliant surprises. Despontar is a word used for daybreak or sunrise, though Apple's Translate app says the phrase means "the unfolding of brilliant surprises." * **Turkey** - Işıltılı. Şaşırtıcı. Heyecanlı or dazzling/sparkling, surprising, exciting. * **The Netherlands** - Surprise party. Apple left this one in English. * **Czechia** - Čas těšení, or time of anticipation. * **UAE, Saudi Arabia** - بدايات تسطع بالمفاجآت, which means beginnings that shine with surprises. * **China** - 亮新篇，来耀眼, which roughly means a bright new chapter, prepare to be dazzled. The 篇 character can also mean page of a book, which is perhaps an interesting nod to a foldable device. * **Hong Kong** - 耀目驚喜，亮起新一章, translates to a dazzling surprise, lighting up a new chapter. It uses a different character for chapter and more clearly says surprise. * **Taiwan** - 驚喜耀現，開新篇。, meaning something like a dazzling surprise opens a new chapter. The different taglines make it clear Apple lets its regional teams write their own content instead of using the same translation worldwide. Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China all use the chapter concept, which is absent from the rest of the world. Many of the European translations use a new beginning or a new dawn, along with the same shining or radiant word in the U.S. version. A new beginning is similar to a new chapter, so the Chinese taglines are probably using that context rather than a book-like chapter context, but there may also be an intentional dual meaning there. For all of the translations to English, there are multiple interpretations because there are characters or words with multiple meanings in English, or phrases that don't translate, but most have the same general meaning as Surprise and Shine. Some regional Apple pages haven't been updated with the event info yet, including Japan, Korea, Brazil, Mexico, Thailand, and Vietnam. We're expecting Apple to introduce the iPhone 18 Pro, the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max, and the first foldable iPhone at its September 9 event.
