Not a dunk at all! In fact, I agree with you when the perspective is from the job-seeker. This article just happened to be for an audience of people having to make hiring decisions. I tried addressing this in the footnote:

Teamlanes beta is going to include Corporate Steve and 80s Detective color palettes. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

What can we infer by their relationship about the long-term vision for something like BlueSky? Isn’t it interesting how audience capture by social media companies plays out in the form of rhetoric siloes centered around specific political ideologies?

What pictures do you think Brock Pierce, founder of BlueSky’s source of money Blockchain Capital, was sending to Jeffrey Epstein in 2012?

There was no evidence? There was nothing indicating that the responsibility for this shutdown was falling squarely on the political party in control of all three branches of government? Are we living in the same reality? www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

While I was out running a couple days ago, I passed two older women having a conversation about Covid. One of them was saying “god wants us to get sick to test our faith”.

I’ve had this in my head for a long time @steveklabnik.com. I respectfully submit The Klabnik Constant:

“Mandatory Commute Policy” toot.yosh.is/@yosh/114027...

❌ Return To Office policy: middle-management language that assumes “office” is a neutral position, we’re somehow “returning to”. This term has been carefully crafted by corporate strategists to sound as palatable as possible.

✅ Mandatory Commute policy: centers the outcome for workers - spending hours each day on an unpaid commute to and from the office just so we can be on video calls all day.

I have a little script called "report" that I run when I log into this particular dev box just to feel the sweet relief of my non-Bayesian anti-bot blocking tools hard at work. (These numbers are the result of the box being online for a whopping 3m13s).

jq-friendly output of a script called "report" which gives me haproxy and fail2ban status updates along with where IPs have been banned.

Whatever side of this you land on, one thing is for sure: they decided to remove this text entirely instead of adding clarifying language. Even if it’s harmless, the level of tone-deafness here with the change is concerning—especially because this feels like a pattern. github.com/mozilla/bedr...

But Jim how do we know if tolerating the intolerant will work if we don’t try. It’s like you don’t even care about intolerant people who violate the social contract. What kind of chaotic hellscape do you want, man, where people can engage in wanton intolerance of the intolerant! /s

Can someone smarter than I am about presidential candidate spending help me understand how Trump spent 0.035% of what Biden and Kamala spent combined and still won? fwiw that's 0.1% of what Trump spent in 2020... How does anyone look at stuff like this and say "yes our elections are fine"

The American Yawp is such a good, free, online American history textbook. The latest chapter, "The Recent Past," is really well written—and starts out with a vignette of the attacks against our government on January 6th, 2021. www.americanyawp.com/text/30-the-...

Love that you referenced James Scott's (1998) Seeing Like a State. Some snippets from chapter 6 ("Soviet Collectivization, Capitalist Dreams") that seem particularly relevant to this thread:
