@ttscoff.bsky.social yyyo, just a friendly fyi from a fellow web dev: I noticed your projects page fails ADA contrast in dark mode on desktop. See attached. No idea if a dev your size would ever attract an ADA lawsuit. Targets seem to be > $1 mil revenue, but it varies. Worth fixing regardless.

This piece was fascinating, getting at a point I'd never considered: bin-Laden's entire concept about what 9/11 would do to America was just... wrong. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...
Bin Laden was equally clear about how he thought terrorism would yield his desired result. In a March 1997 CNN interview with Peter Bergen, he spoke of transferring “the battle into the United States.” In a May 2000 speech, he told supporters that the war would henceforth be waged “against the United States, in the United States.” Americans, he observed to ABC’s John Miller in 1998, cannot tolerate pain, and will react to attacks not by fighting back and blaming al‑Qaeda, but instead by asking “what their government has done that forced us to defend ourselves.” In a November 2001 interview, he hinted at a theory of political change in America: Its citizens should “take the same stand that they did previously,” when they protested the Vietnam War and the presidents who waged it.
Nelly Lahoud, a professor at the Army War College and the author of the definitive book on the Abbottabad documents, told me this political pipe dream was bin Laden’s whole plan: “to replicate the anti–Vietnam War movement of the United States, to get the American public to put pressure on the U.S. government to withdraw its forces from the Middle East.” The documents reveal a man and an organization blindsided by the American reaction to the September 11 attacks. Bin Laden and his associates “didn’t think that the United States would respond by waging war,” Lahoud said. He did not contemplate or plan for the long-term occupation of Afghanistan, nor did he expect the methodical killing of his operatives in a campaign that lasted years.

I would kill or die for Larry
A small operation in Oregon that hunts truffles with a trained dog has added an unpaid trainee. A cat named Larry accompanies the handler and the truffle dog into the woods every outing, works a patch of ground a little apart from them, and digs with tremendous confidence in places where there is nothing.
The handler says Larry has never found a truffle and shows no sign of understanding the assignment. He does not use scent the way the dog does and he does not respond when the dog makes a find.
He simply digs his own holes nearby and then inspects them. "He thinks he's on the team," the handler said. "He is emphatically not on the team."

Clearly I have done something to displease the (fantasy) baseball gods. I knew starting Peralta against Schwarber was maybe dicey but this is just ridiculous.
My fantasy baseball matchup from last nights wherein my DH Kyle Schwarber hit 3 home runs and racked up 23 points… against my rostered pitcher Freddy Peralta who lost 23 points.

I know this is often perceived as aggro male bs but I CANNOT handle the dives in soccer/football. It’s egregious and pathetic and dishonest and it seems to happen 3x a minute. How is diving not the headline of every World Cup story? Here’s hoping the NHL cracks down on it before it goes full FIFA.
