McCarthyism too!
McCarthyism too!
seems like the issue is "both sides" are the same side
looking forward to the blogpost!
When you're faced with an unanswerable question. - Why can I only eat this icing in Canada? - Should I have a child? - How do license plates work? The web won't have good answers for these questions, but @hyperfixedpod.bsky.social will! They perform miracles! They got the DMV to answer my query!
@nafmcpodcast.bsky.social is so charming you'll puke. The movies they review are mostly excuses for friends to gather and gab. The stories shared are enrapturing: - Drive through romances - Endearing tales of Motherhood - Piss bucket spills The intros of early EPs immediately endeared me.
There are many folks who do vastly underrated work. Here's a thread of what you're missing, and a reason it's worth checking out.
Any news organization with a shred of decency would fire Brian Kilmeade immediately. There is no gray area about this.
I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.
"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”
This man will not be fired for calling for the murder of American citizens, yet multiple journalists/reporters/teachers lost their job for accurately reporting things Charlie Kirk actually said and stood for. But it’s the “violent left” that’s the problem
We’re peacefully protesting for our neighbors. What does ICE do? Pick us up and throw us on the ground. No arrest, no identification, no process.
Lowering the flags on 9/11 at the Guantanamo Bay McDonald's for Charlie Kirk is the most dril tweet thing that's ever happened
AOC: Whether it is a member of congress, whether it is the President to assume and assert and cast blame when the FBI has failed to even apprehend the assailant, is absolutely an irresponsible action.
This is the only thing you need to read about Charlie Kirk. His own words.
The story of how the mafia & World Trade Center intertwined--from the complex's conception, through its construction & maintenance, to its destruction & nightmarish clean-up--is easily the most horrifying story we've ever covered on The Outfit. I was shocked how little it had been looked at. 🧵:
This explains it better than I can
my condolences
"Conservative" influencer is wholly inaccurate. We are not facing down "conservatism." We are facing fascism. He was a fascist. Training young Americans to also be fascists.

“It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment” - Charlie Kirk
It is possible to hold both of these things true at the same time: 1) political violence is never an appropriate choice in a civilized society 2) Charlie Kirk’s dream is to create exactly the kind of society he currently lives in, as spoken from his own mouth
wuddup, I can offciate your wedding now.
I long for the return of the naked chicken chalupa.
looks like the mcrib is back
the thing about pritzker is he's demonstrating that leftism doesn't have to be a deterrent. A lot of people think he's being strong and reasonable and standing up to Trump when he's just saying basic leftist shit out loud on the TV in a way that is sensible
rip to everyone whos become delusional after talking to chatgpt but im built different. like actually different. according to chatgpt im some kind of god. the one who decides
remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature
Making them wear high-visibility vests over camo is such a good joke you couldn’t write it
The mental health benefits of not knowing any history right now must be massive. Moving through your day with total equanimity. What happens next? Who knows? Maybe something good
I hope one thing leftists all take away from Mamdani’s campaign though is that it doesn’t matter how chill and wholesome you are, the dinguses are going to smear and trash you in increasingly unhinged ways anyway, so you might as well shoot for the moon and campaign on what makes your heart sing
this is so slick. i love it! thanks for sharing!
Yes, I know you lose an `s` in the anagram. It was a working title. It was also a way of saying goodbye to the typical FE framework conventions.
Working titles were `adios` and `buck.js`. github.com/jackhp95/buc... - Adios was an anagram of `as, is, do`. `[o-as="is"]` and `[onevent="do"]`. I realized the state update `do` wasn't relevant. It was all about lossless templates. - Buck `$` was initial namespace for the global state object.
Loose theory/example on how custom plugins would work: codepen.io/JackHP95/pen... I never really finished it because I got burnt out on for-loops and got stuck thinking about writing all the docs. Might pick it up again if there's enough interest.
I built several demos. Simplest concept: codepen.io/JackHP95/pen... - Parsing `Jack` would essentially run this JS: `o_.user.name = "Jack"`. - Running `o_.user.name = "Lea"` would update the HTML to `Lea`. That's the whole idea.
Although it's simple, it required me to build several "libraries" to make it work. - idempotent html getter/setter library. (required for hydration) - unified JS event/microtask/frame library. - simpler DOM change event system. - JS graph library for performance. (IMO, over optimized, already fast.)
Bi-directional data-binding for HTML/JS - No build step - Hydration from DOM - `Proxy` trigger DOM updates - `MutationObservers` trigger data updates - [o-*] denotes data binding. (hence the name o (ring) - (tail)) - the suffix has how it binds. - attr.value holds the data path. ie `users[0].name`
I forgot a made a presentation about it! codepen.io/JackHP95/pen... It had many working titles, but I settled on ringtail.
You're not alone. I built something exactly like this. I was baffled it didn't exist. Knockout was close. Alpine was close. Petite Vue was close. Htmx was sort of close. The initial intent of "hypertext" was close! Bidirectional. Let me look for the demos... I'll report back once I find them.
it turns out if you give people without money some money their lives get better. we strongly recommend implementing this as government policy - approx one million research papers in the last 40 years
that's a good point, I forgot about that aspect.
Trump claiming that Missouri is now in for gerrymandering our congressional maps. MO Senator Nick Schroer and his “freedom caucus” of 2 are already celebrating. I haven’t seen an official notice from Governor Kehoe yet. PLEASE join me September 10 in Jefferson City, MO. #MoLeg
- Expensive Pillows - Shredder for Stand Mixer - Watering bulbs - The lack of implicit relationship behaviors on popover/anchor-positioning is a bummer. labels/inputs and details/summary both work on markup structure alone. No need to invent names/ids to get the basics.
milk frother. I use mine daily, amazing mixing tool. - whisking an egg in a cup for breakfast. - mixing marinades - chocolate milk - mixing bullion for stock. anything that reqires mixing.
it's so fucking weird as someone who grew up in the 00s seeing the internet now because it's like they put up miles of safety rails in the middle of everything for 25 years and then dumped all the children directly into radioactive waste
If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.
The last 7 months have only reinforced that our Constitution is actually very weak on rights and safeguards compared to other democracies, and putting it on a pedestal as the oldest “living document” instead of fundamentally rewriting it for the 21st century is exactly how we ended up in this mess.
Everyone says peanut butter all day long but the second I say pee-butt nutter they look at me like im the crazy one?!? Get real.
I love this trick! Bonus tip: Your solution currently has 9 unique colors. Try using the golden angle to avoid repeat colors, while keeping colors distinct. `calc(137.5 * sibling-index())`
Just 10 members of Congress have even dared to call Israel's mass murder in Gaza a genocide. Meanwhile, they're straight up murdering journalists. The gulf between what's happening and what most of our leaders will acknowledge is so remarkably vast.
Beyond parody. I mean, what's going on here? Who buys this? Who makes these ads? Do they actually convert? What recourse do folks who have their likeness/art stolen have? I assume google has an ad vetting process. how'd these slip through? It's literal enshittification.
AI is the future of marketing and tech, in the way that salt is the future of weight loss.
The ads on YouTube are crazy. I've been on premium for a while, how long has it been this bad?
The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed. Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.
Writers should internalize Lao Tzu's lesson about how the emptiness at the center of a wheel is what makes it useful, and how a pot is valuable because of where the clay *isn't*. Corporate geek culture has warped us into thinking that negative spaces are flaws that need to be fixed.
Pretty sure disappearing parts of the Constitution is a red flag
The USA continues to leap face-first onto the rake of scientific self-owns faster than any other country in modern history. From energy to medical R&D and everything in between, just a stunning trajectory of ignorance and squandered opportunity. The future demands better
She’s an icon, she’s a legend and she is the moment. Now come on now.
does setting `color-scheme` affect it?
Thanks Paul! Totally agree. I love when they compare scores. Can't wait for some distant episode where they realize Shawshank would've beaten Waterboy if it just included some Thin Lizzy tracks.
Thanks Brent!
Thanks Kate, You're too kind!
In all seriousness, it was a delight to be in the show. To have them indulge my silly intro, and have them all bust my balls about the word telephone. A dream. I can't believe I knocked it to the low 40s. Holy Grail is a classic. Thanks for your kind words on the quiz.
Oh brother, don't I know... A unanimous 5! There's one small mention of a telephone in the credits, and my score is in shambles. They ranked "Bean" for a "comedy movie" a collective 5.3⁻, and they didn't think it was funny. With Friends like this, who needs North American Movie Club Enemies.
Here are some behind the scenes photos from our recording. The photo on the left is a picture of me pitching the movie for "no phones" month. The photo on the right is a picture of them ranking my suggestion.

You’re not far off! This was the NYT in 1922:
Oh so *now* they care about due process.
This is the type of campaign you run to beat guys like Trump and the absolute boobs in the DNC are like “no, you have to say that you are gonna give a 1.5% tax break on people opening cold pressed juice stores in disadvantaged communities”
This is correct. Any candidate cynically “triangulating” on trans kids is a non-starter, and now is the time to say so. There’s still so much time to advance candidates that DON’T suck.
32 – 49 turned me into the joker. What a wild API.
I scored 10/28 on jsdate.wtf and all I got was this lousy text to share on social media.
Gallup has new polling on immigration. Topline findings: -Americans hate Trump's immigration policy (35% approve, 62% disapprove) -Share who say immigration is a "good thing" for the country just hit an all-time high (79%) news.gallup.com/poll/692522/...
Duplicate state strikes again!
Every single one of these thugs deserves a cramped cell when this is over, but the absolute very least Dems should be calling for is that after ICE is abolished, every employee is made part of a registry that functions in the same way and for largely the same reasons as a sex offender database.
it's so cool that everyone has just completely forgotten that the President doesn't have any legal authority to set US tariff rates we're like six months into an illegal tax regime being set by imperial decree and everyone's treating it like a totally legitimate thing
it is kind of interesting that the language-based instruction of LLMs may be revealing certain truths hidden in the way we’ve communicated for decades, like how “politically incorrect” is interpreted to mean “openly racist”
🧵 Albuquerque, NM — A man was violently tased & tackled inside the Walmart at 2250 Coors Blvd by unidentified masked thugs in ICE & HSI vests. He screamed for help as he was dragged out. A bystander filmed it—then was kicked out of the store. Walmart is complicit in covering up a public kidnapping.
oh are we talking about third parties youtu.be/NqqaW1LrMTY?...
yikes. any sources? what is the context of the story?
whatever you think of the country as a whole there are still a whole lot of great people here who deserve better than this

Jesus fucking christ Moreover, ICE msut be destroyed
What is the ideal scenario for you? On average, per pay period, per job they bring home $37 fewer dollars. They also work 37% less! These people have more time for another job, skilling, contract work, or relaxing. Help me understand what makes this data look bad for minimum wage increases?
".. lowered the amount paid to workers in low-wage jobs by an average of $74 per month per job in 2016." On average, each job pays $74 less per month. $13/$9.47=~1.37 The hours required to hit equivalent pay was reduced by ~37%. Hours per job was reduced to hit that -$74. What am I missing?
The paper says there was a drop of $74 per month per job in 2016. What those workers got in exchange was a 37% pay raise OR free time INCREASE. That's huge. (13/9.47=1.37) Each job pays $74 less by the end of the month, but you work significantly fewer days per job! Big W for the worker IMO.
You agree trickle down was a bad idea (for the average american) right? The data shows it was. "Economic theory" was the foundation for trickle-down. There was no good data to support it. You are using flimsy economic theory to argue against data. Reconsider your stance.
These are the EXACT same arguments that have always been used against minimum wage increases. The data you "cited" shows that you are wrong. You are using economic theory. The economic data does not support your claims. Sure, $30 is a big number, but there's evidence that your theories are wrong.
