Even in the early 2000s, in the aftermath of 9/11, I can remember people in school passing around copies of The Anarchist’s Cookbook. Perhaps I’ve been naïve, but I’ve always assum…

Now we just have to wait and see whether it’s… “I’d be happy to answer your question… right after a word from our sponsor: Xyeniceli. Side effects may include ...” OR ChatGPT: “Why…

Would the adoption of a Deno-like security posture in NPM have mitigated this?

As someone who grew up hearing pledge drives every few months on (ad-free) Christian radio: Would that be an option to fund NPR? Surely those who want to listen/watch/support would…

I’ve never been able to tell if Alex Jones is “real” or just a character. I’ve seen him on Rogan and clips of his InfoWars stuff and he’s just so far off the scale that it makes me…

I'm also a dad, but not everyone has just one kid. Many of the moms who I've seen struggling are doing so because they have 2-4 kids (1-2 newborn, 1-2 under 5). There are absolutel…

I'm a bit of a tinkerer with software and will occasionally "wander" over the fence to see if it really is greener on the other side; I always come back to Firefox. I've tried: Bra…
