Docker and Electron are the most hyped new technologies of the last five years. Both are not about improving things, figuring out complexity or reducing it. Both are just compromised attempts to hide accumulated complexity from developers because it became impossible to deal with.

This is exactly why I hate using Docker.

Thousands of Black Lives Matter COVID-19 Face Masks Seized by Law Enforcement: a ‘Gross Disregard for Black Life’

Realize that this shit is happening before you concern-troll about protests during the pandemic.

“Buying supplies and food for people who are on the ground works too. It’s all a chain… Protesting is on a spectrum.” https://www.wired.com/story/how-to-protest-safely-gear-tips/

@beadsland because I can't, I won't, and I don't stop

Just remembering the leaked doc where the FBI was complaining that the struggles of infiltration are that all the leftists live together and are constantly reading theory and using technical language so in order to blend in they have to actually read Kropotkin, Crimethinc, Marx, Lenin, Chomsky, And More~ which either radicalizes their infiltrators or requires them to seriously do a lot of research and play the Long Game which can be very demoralizing when it turns out they don't do shit anyway

Today I released the first edition of Riot Medicine, a public domain book to help street medics in the struggle for liberation, autonomy, and dignity for all. You can download all 466 pages for free here: https://riotmedicine.net/downloads

Sooooo, trying to capitalise on social and political turmoil right now, the Albertan government is trying to pass a law to prevent people from protesting for indigenous land rights.

“If we can't find the bad apples, we could just start firing police randomly. Maybe at that point, they'll see the value in helping find, remove and prosecute the bad ones.”

— Dave Winer

For many years I worked with man who insisted a company our size should fire somebody every month. There’s always somebody who *should* be fired and if management doesn’t know who that is, just ask the other employees. They know and can’t imagine why the person wasn’t fired long ago. Cops know, too

if rioters get declared enemy combatants, does that mean the cops will have to start following the geneva convention, which forbids use of tear gas

We need a BDS movement against America.

So, a few weeks after military aircraft buzz basically every major US city “to raise spirits”, Trump expresses strong support for aerial assault of protestors?

In a country where police murders of black people occur so frequently that any one of them could easily be blown up into a full-scale nationwide riot with only a tiny amount of prodding of social media (because there’s so much legitimate anger underneath), and therefore such a riot could be manufactured at any time as desired by those that do the prodding?

It’s almost like the flyovers were a test run.

inspired by the speedrunning community, the new cutting edge democrat strategy is to run a campaign so terrible it will rollover backwards into infinite votes before the polls even open. they'll have wallhacked into the whitehouse by august

My mate reckons he can print a gun with his 3D printer.

I wasn't impressed, I've had a Canon printer for years.

What do you mean, systemic racism?

@beadsland @natecull Also worth noting: even blue states were under a serious push to start reopening things, red states were already deep into that push, and compliance with social distancing measures and masks was poor anyway.

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if the second wave would’ve been just as bad without the protests, especially given how many businesses are refusing to mandate that their customers and employees wear masks. These protests in some cases close those businesses back down.

how many times have you heard the police have "the most dangerous job on the streets"? you can't even count the times you've heard that said

surely it must the the #1 most dangerous job in the us, right?

nope, loggers are #1

okay it's got to be in top 5

2. fishers
3. aircraft pilots/flight engineers
4. roofers
5. garbage and recycling collectors
