I've never been a fan of RoR. As a VP & CTO, I allow teams to use whatever they want, works for their team, and their stakeholders. I dictated a conversation from Ruby this year, possibly the first full dictate I've ever given. Now, RoR gives me a non-tech reason to distrust them.

Meta created personal outsourcing. By created, I mean they made an app that sits between you and someone else to do simple things you don't want to do yourself. Plus add all the crazy ideas about giving someone credentials to the things they need to do stuff "for you"

Which vote is more important this election cycle? The one bigoted against trans people or the one who refuses to vote against the most vulnerable? This is the only question I'm asking my candidates.

There has never been anything complex about the Israel Palestine situation. There is only a European colonial problem that keeps repeating. Europe did this to America and the indigenous population here. They did it to Ireland. They did it across Africa. They did it in Australia.

The press today sounds like everyone who voted for Trump and are now being personally hurt by him. I have no sympathy for an industry that has covered his insanity like it is normal human behavior and now are like, dude he's insane, everyone stand up for us

This is the exact spot I'm in at work right now. Defining the value these tools and platforms actually bring and how to budget appropriately for that value. I think $2k a month per dev is a good baseline based on the usage I am seeing. Honestly most don't hit that today.

My gut has been saying, something is not above board with the AI whistle blowers saying they are leaving their Aai companies because AI is too powerful and will kill us. My gut is more skeptical as we hear the CEOs saying we are pausing and asking for government control.

Trump's $5,000 to 252 million adult citizens is $1.26 trillion. That is about 40% of the typical federal budget. $1.26 trillion could fund universal childcare for over a decade. $1.26T could end homelessness permanently house all unhoused for 40–100+ years and leave billions for prevention

It's pretty cool in an anthropological sense to see all the social media posts from Trump to give a glimpse into the mind of a pedophile.

All of the natural places Trump has renamed were native names. This is not a coincidence. These places have kept a small part of indigenous life alive. Mt Denali is Koyukon Athabaskan = great one. Gulf of Mexico is Nahuatl word Mexica = Aztec alliance tribe Lake Ontario is Wendat = beautiful lake

This deal is garbage. Meta makes $200 billion a year and profits $60 billion. This should have gone to trial and forced the review and acknowledgement of Meta's business practices. Meta will still be preying on kids long after the ink dries on this check. But all these AGs get cool campaign quotes

Dolly Parton's catalog of work is vast, and The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas doesn't get enough light. A story highlighting the hypocrisy of the conservative "Christian" right is as true today as it was in 1982.

My girlfriend's son was heard screaming from his room the other day: "Who the f#&k is Chris Pappas!!?" Evidently ads kept coming up while he was watching something. @repchrispappas.bsky.social maybe this needs to be put on some merch? I'd buy that hoodie.

Fun fact: When I was born in 1977, China was ranked #1 for people in poverty in the world. 770 million people in China lived below the world bank defined poverty line. That is more people than existed in the entire western hemisphere at the time: 584 million. In my lifetime, they eradicated poverty

Is @cindewarmington.bsky.social actually running for Governor of New Hampshire? She's the only Democrat in the ballot and I haven't seen anything from her. I know this state is huge, but maybe some kind of campaigning could find its way near me.

Why is Google back trying this text message chat bubble stuff? I can't see the value and it's like every couple of years it comes back. No, I don't need the automated ACLU texts coming up as a bubble. I'll read them days after they come in like any family members' messages.

Heath Howard is the only viable NH CD-1 candidate that isn't bought by AIPAC. No foreign asset should be a US Representative. This isn't about Israel, Zionism, or even genocide. It's about foreign interference in US elections.

there is no such thing as "age verification." All "age verification" is actually "identity verification." You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper. But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware. Period.

In the big tent of the Democrat party, how far left do you have to go to get members that won't negotiate away trans rights? I mean actual rights, bathroom access, sports, healthcare or any other topic used to remind trans people they aren't full people?

Aaron Hilton @extremekanban.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

The Democrats are not a large tent on policy, they are a large tent on votes. They will fight anything left of far right liberal until someone breaks through from the left. The left has to fight the party ideology to survive, they aren't welcomed in.

I'm trying to decide how I'm voting in the midterms depending on the primaries. When left with a fascist lite liberal do I vote third party, write in someone, or vote Republican hoping the next time we learn how to have primaries in NH? Still holding out hope we get someone more left.

Thomson Reuters, which owns news agency Reuters, has signed a $125M deal giving ICE access to its databases of personal data. USA Today has partnered with Palantir to gain "actionable intelligence" on its audiences. The media should be opponents of Trump's police state — not collaborators.

Hey cis folks, do you know why trans people need you to speak up for us? Because people will tell us jokes about us are funny, and refuse to listen to us saying it’s transphobic. Because people will blatantly ignore trans people telling them things, but they listen to cis people. We need you.

This is a "blue no matter who" election cycle. Blue will win because we live in a pendulum swinging system. This is the time to demand change in the party. It's the only time change could happen because the pendulum isn't going to swing this hard for a long time.

I'm not radicalized by Trump or the oligarchy or late stage capitalism or even the rise of fascism. I'm radicalized by watching the response to it. I'm radicalized by legacy Democrats. They have the same "make America great again" mantra.

@captmarkkelly.bsky.social deleted his post and created a new one with the exact same endorsement but no explanation of why he chose Shaheen over 8 other candidates for the PRIMARY! He didn't endorse the Marine Captain or the current state representative. He chose the dynasty of Shaheen. But why?

My prediction: Within 2 years, we will have added so much logic around LLMs with deterministic logic, AI will become a low code engine. After the on-shoring of the 2000s off-shoring, low code was pushed and failed. Keep in mind, no innovation has come from using low code or no code platforms.

This is the time for the Democratic party to push left. There is no need to capitulate the center. There is no need for fascism lite, and anyone saying the contrary approves of some form of fascism.
