On March 1, demonstrators converged on the Federal Building outside the Twin Cities, temporarily blockading ICE inside it. On one side of the building, fifty people established a shield wall. Sheriffs attacked immediately, but they held their ground for almost an hour. crimethinc.com/BlockWhipple

here's a cool thing i've been tinkering w for a few weeks now: open repeater map uses localized repeaterbook.com data to map out all the repeaters on a native flutter app completely offline open street map tiles req internet but can be cached for offline too :3 1/2

peer reviewed papers are cool, but research does not define you academic prestige is cool, but academia does not define you high productivity is cool, but employers do not define you i appreciate you for who you are, not for the labels an institution gave you 💜

so faa req's drones broadcast a unique id + some location data on the drone & the pilot. but there's a catch; the spec's proprietary so heres an reference impl of the core data types & (de)ser system instead: github.com/jtriley2p/drone-id 0/1

article titled "how to infer topology" with a broken link to an animation for visualizing extracting topological features from geospacial data

norcal pigs raided some houseless folks outside a nonprofit food distro today. volunteers & the houseless begged to let them just take their things and leave. they refused, then destroyed everything. we keep us safe, not the state, not the police.

interestingly, there are technical foundations for this in crypto systems, but to serve the public interest we have to strip out capitalist mechanisms "cryptoeconomic" mechanisms can be replaced w community trust assumptions; but audibility, validity, and distributed consensus work out of the box

happy juneteenth, great book for today: revolutionary s*icide by huey newton chattel slavery abolition was a significant step but from far from the last in black liberation from nestle's malian slaves to the systemic violence against the black community; there is no freedom until everyone is free

solarpunk is a fascinating idea; one where humans and tech co-exist in tandem with a tightly integrated relationship with nature. but there's an attempted co-opting of solarpunk both through corporate greenwashing as well as crypto groups. let's talk about it. 0/n

marches in every state today; stay safe, do good opsec, and get connected in this moment we're activated, we want something to do, we want to effect change right now but this is a long game. showing up in solidarity with our fellow peoples is a significant step but there's more to do 0/4

threats of deporting nat born citizens is on the table. wireless signals off, if it transmits it tracks. move in groups, dress in black. encryption on, biometrics off, give no consent. stay safe; we need you for the long game.

there are no "apolitical" software devs, only those who are unaware of whom their software empowers open source is the prerequisite, free and open source is the baseline, facilitation of digital sovereignty is the imperative we have to be there for ppl pushed out of the subscription economy

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! Despite being like 0.95% of the population (at least in the US), you can find a trans flag pfp on just about every software system with material impact. Appreciate you for being you 💜

from fm to sms, wifi to bluetooth, jiggling radio waves is the core of all modern comms tech in studying for the technician license, i wrote an article that introduces electromagnetic radiation, antennas, and modulation techniques from fm up to qam-256 :3 jtriley.com/radio-commun...
