Trump to the press: I will crush you like the bugs you are.

Journalists: Haha there goes Trump again.

Biden: I'm incredibly disappointed in your coverage:

Journalists: How dare you? Resign immediately, you ungrateful pathetic SOB.

About that traumatic life-threatening ear injury ....

Save your screeds. Save your online yelling about any of it.

VOTE.

The Supreme Court has given themselves the power to make policy decisions that supersede the experts at federal agencies and the elected members of Congress. And there’s no doubt the MAGA SCOTUS will wield that power to roll back our rights even further. We cannot allow this power grab to go unchecked. Congress must uphold our Constitution and fight back by instituting structural reforms — including expanding the Court — to unrig the court and rein in the MAGA supermajority.

Analysis: We researched how many convicted felons had been elected President of the United States: the answer may surprise you.

It’s zero. The answer is zero.

What's it called when you log back in to your computer, when coming back from vacation, and you wish you were dead instead? 😐

When your boss describes his perfect work-life balance as working 15-16 hours a day, it's definitely time to start looking for a new role.

The astronauts aboard the ISS were amazed by the April 8 solar eclipse, just like the rest of us, and went crazy snapping photos from orbit.

They got some amazing views of the Moon's shadow sweeping across southern Canada & Maine, seen from 420 km (261 miles) above: https://www.flickr.com/photos/nasa2explore/with/53645140833 #space #eclipse #space #astronomy

My company has just announced that there will be a round of layoffs soon. They just laid off a bunch of C-levels. They're giving us the opportunity to "opt in" to "workforce reduction" with a promise of three months severance.

It's been pretty tumultuous here, lately, to be honest, and I'm considering it.

But, I've got a wife and four kids to take care of, and I've never willingly left a job when I didn't have another one already lined up. And we've got good benefits (healthcare and dental) right now, so I really don't want to give that up.

Maybe if I had something lined up with similar pay and benefits, I could do it.

So, I'm looking for any recommendations. I'm a #PHP developer (of roughly twenty years), who has been doing a lot of #golang for the past year, and I've gotten very proficient at that as well.

I'm looking for a US-based company, and a Principal/Staff/Senior Developer role.

Anybody have any good leads? My website is at https://danielrayjones.com, and I can be emailed at dan@danielrayjones.com.

@AlSweigart I’ll take things that happened after I got out of college for $1,000 Alex.

@natty reminded me of

So I said screw it and released some software today - Fossilizer v0.2.0

It's a static site generator for Mastodon exports with client-side search via pagefind

https://github.com/lmorchard/fossilizer/releases/tag/v0.2.0

Every time I do tech support for my family I get very angry about people who whine about lacking "tech literacy".

90% of the stuff I have to teach them is how to navigate manipulative software and dark patterns. This has nothing to do with tech, but with capitalism. Tech is not complicated, it is just made maximally confusing on purpose to remove agency.

Better tech ed won't fix this.

"'Save Democracy' Democrats" is not some strange cult. It is all Democrats.

@CliffWade yeah unfortunately I’ll be mowing for the next 9 months! Uggggh! LOL

@CliffWade I’m taking my son to earn a merit badge, he’s trying to get his Eagle rank in the next 28 mos. Other than that going to mow the yard. Fun!!

Four years ago today, the CDC advised all Americans to wear masks in public to avoid spreading covid.

Trump immediately announced he would refuse to wear one, needlessly turning masking into a divisive partisan issue and contributing to countless avoidable deaths.
