we produce tonnes of marketable, valuable, productive stuff that we could sell to the world — like university education, and television programmes, for example — but the government has no interest in improving the conditions for making and selling these things

No aid has reached the starving people of Palestine. Israeli forces continue to block access despite the imminent risk of literally mass mass death of babies & children. Today we MUST make our voices heard - come if you can at 6PM to Parliament square & #fastforgaza #r4today

EHRC requests FOUR WEEKS to respond on a legal question they've already said is clear. They originally only wanted two weeks for their entire consultation, which would affect all trans people... but they want twice that to respond to a letter which might affect them.

GENOCIDE BAD is a NYT and USA Today Bestseller!!! In 40 years of publishing, indie press @interlinkbooks.bsky.social, the only Palestinian-owned press in the US, has faced severe censorship and hate. I am so honored to have worked with them on this book!

This is what happens when anti-vaccine rhetoric takes hold. Lives are lost. People get incredibly sick or are left with lifelong disability from a preventable illness. We had all but eradicated measles. It doesn’t need to be this way. Get your vaccine and wear a respirator (especially in hospital)

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.
The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Brandon Bradford (@BrandonLBradfor
). The tweet reads: "Deporting Americans without due process then saying they no longer get due process because they aren’t in America means no one has rights, FYI. Nightmare scenario."

In case you’re not sure why the NHS isn’t working any more, it’s because the service is being slowly dismantled by politicians who are turning it into a cash cow for private companies, starving it of resource so it doesn’t work properly, and enabling the private sector to expand rapidly 🚨

No one prepares you for the guilt & fear you experience when you become chronically ill. Even if you’re lucky enough to have a supportive family/partner… there’s always the fear they could leave. The guilt that you’re a burden. The pain of wishing you didn’t NEED someone so much.

Total student loan debt that would have been erased for millions of Americans: $400 billion Total cost of the Trump tax cuts that largely benefited the wealthy and corporations: $1.9 trillion This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The game of "here's my scope, please give me your estimate" is ultimately broken 1. The scope *will* change 2. The estimate is unreliable anyway 3. The decision-making is around price in isolation and not value Ultimately, we don't exploit "here's my budget; what's the best I can get for it?" path

Absolutely love this quote from @sandimetz.bsky.social.
"Unlike theory, practice gets its hands dirty. It is practice that lays bricks, builds bridges, and writes code. Practice lives in the real world of change, confusion, and uncertainty. It faces competing choices and, grimacing, chooses the lesser evil; it dodges, it hedges, it  robs Peter to pay Paul. It makes a living by doing the best it can with what it has."

Well worth a read. While the post is about diabetes, it overlaps with the experience of so many folks with chronic illness & injuries. Well timed too as I’m currently navigating the exact same issues with prolonged sitting being very very difficult.

Here's a sequence I haven't heard discussed. You have a system with tests. You break the system into parts. You add tests for the parts. Now you have redundant coverage. You have the opportunity to trim the system-level tests without losing any confidence in the behavior of the system. Do you?
A system with tests, then the system is broken into parts, then the parts get their own tests, then the tests for the whole system can be radically slimmed.

And if a test is broken, you have nothing more important to do than figure out why it broke unexpectedly, then make sure the tests & system are in sync and the tests remain predictive & inspiring.
