On Tim Cook's last day as Apple CEO, a reminder of how he destroyed his own legacy, which at one point was a striking contrast to Jobs' unwillingness to let Apple engage with any social issues. Now, all of that good work, and good will... squandered. www.anildash.com/2025/09/09/h...

You can see this happening now with Americans being swept up in immigration raids.

A legal system without due process for all doesn't have due process. Why? Because the government can simply claim that you are a member of a group that doesn't have due process. And without due process, you can't refute that.

It is a massive win for democracy, rule of law, and human rights. And it leaves Putin and Trump even more alone in the world without their block on the EU. (Of course, right now it is all still talk and I'm not 100% sure that Magyar can be trusted, but the people spoke loudly!!)

Yay Hungary! This wasn't just a defeat of Orban and the far-right. This was a landslide with more than 2/3 majority that will allow the new leadership to undo much of the authoritarian far-right crap that Orban's party has done to Hungary over the last 16 years.

The greatest aspirational achievement of humanity's first global civilization. I believe that the days that we came closest to achieving this will be considered the peak of this civilization. Hopefully it is just a bump in the road, but as of now, those days appear to be in the past.

I was on the ground floor of the cypherpunk movement in the 90s, witnessed the Silicon Valley libertarians first hand, and summarized it thus. I'll see about picking up a copy of her book. Should be an interesting read.

Double taps are meant to kill first responders and reporters. Even if your (in my opinion im-) morality somehow finds bombing a hospital acceptable, killing those who are attempting to help or report on the wounded and dying is pure evil.

Spain considers maltreatment because of your sexuality or gender identity as reason for asylum. It is not perfect at all in its treatment of refugees, but it is one of the best.

Having grown up on a farm, worked with migrant workers, had family and friends who were migrant workers or sons, daughters, grandkids, etc... of them, I find this absolutely appalling. Hell, I find it absolutely appalling just on a "how we should treat human beings" level.

Perhaps the external threats that Europe now faces are enough to get movement. Especially if it drives out the internal threats to democracy.

Thank you for sending that. Her speech embodies why I want to live here. Uniting the countries to get anything done has always been problematic here. When they do unite however, they have produced the best quality of life in the world.

It's not enough to just hit the streets. To use non-violent resistance, you need to provoke a response. The best way to do this with someone like Donald Trump is to strike at his income. Fill the streets around his properties so that they can't do business. I bet he responds.

We had a scary incident back in 2018 when we sent the kids (then 12 years old) to my parents' farm for a week and they were held in immigration for over an hour without being able to talk to anyone from my family nor would immigration tell us what was happening.

Obviously, there are not 60 million people out there who had conversations with people who remember being a slave in the US. But it means that there are still some people out there who have spoken with former slaves first hand.

Jason Bobier @jasonbobier.bsky.social · 04/03/2025
Which means that approximately 60 million people alive today could have spoken to someone who remembered being a slave when they were younger.
