#162Works created by U.S. federal government employees as part of their official duties are in the public domain, according to 17 U.S.C. § 105, except for classified or restricted information (but none of what he posted is classified or restricted)
Now the debate begins on whether downloading Twitter DMs is an official government duty.

Can one request all of the code this dude has written or is it as his discretion what is released to the public domain?
idk try to make a FOIA request
I'm not asking how to go about requesting his code, I'm asking whether the policy you cite allows him to decide what is public domain himself or if one has to work through processes and procedures to release and obtain that code.

#167I wish I could downvote all these political topics to get them off the front page; they're so toxic. I feel like the submission system has been taken over by political operatives, which is disappointing.

#168This may or may not be breaking the law, but who is checking? Where are the controls? Forget checks and controls, there is no willingness on anyone in power to even ask the question.
Ironically, fear of losing power has paralyzed everyone that objectively have no power in Washington as they just exist to please the two presidents.

Or just setup Redirector* to automatically redirect you to xcancel (and old.reddit.com, and away from whatever other hostile websites there are these days...)

Succeed at what? For example, they canceled invasive species control programs for the Great Lakes. Is it a success that they saved a modest amount of money, while letting the condition of the lakes further erode?
Source? The only news I’ve heard is that they fired 12 of 85 staffers and prohibited hiring seasonal workers, which was then rescinded a few days later. https://arstechnica.com/science/2025/03/federal-firings-coul... Not to attack you personally, but I’ve noticed there is a lot of hyperbole here based on dramatic headlines, extrapolation based on feeling rather than facts, so important but difficult to stay informed.
Oh good, they are just arbitrarily risking it being ineffective. My bad. I read a similar article to the one you link that I think didn't have the numbers, just talked about cutting the staff of the two locations.
