Anyone saying "it's not our fight, we shouldn't get mixed in" is a fascist. (thread)
By definition: Fascism is a form nationalism ("not our fight") characterized by dictatorial power (acceptance of Putin's actions), forcible suppression of opposition (agree that Putin is allowed to shoot Ukrainians), and strong regimentation of society ("not our fight").

#Russia's disinfo troops have just made a very large mistake: their mask slipped. In an effort to denounce the Heroes of Snake Island, they also mention "Avenger of the air" - but that does not exist! It's probably a future psyop that they thought already came out. #UkraineWar ImageImageImage
Look at the third picture - the whole article is just: 1. a headline saying Snake Island and Avenger of the air are fake 2. A picture of Snake Island 3. Some unrelated captions and an unrelated paragraph. That is ALL. There's no content, just a headline so it shows up in Google. Image
Of course the Heroes of Snake Island do exist. Here's a piece of real reporting that shows they do, including source footage - but "Heroes of Snake Island is fake news" shows up on the first page of Google results for "Heroes of Snake Island". #UkraineWar

What is this #war about, how to make it infeasible for #Russia, and what consequences could it have? Here's what I see.
First let's talk about why the #UkraineInvasion happened. Obviously, none of the things said by #Russia are the true reason.

After all art has been stolen, assets removed, people displaced or killed, and infrastructure destroyed, what is left? Land, buildings, natural resources.
The long term spoils of #Russia's invasion on #Ukraine are the dismantling of the old ruling class and installing of a new one which has sponsored this war. Make no mistake, Putin is representing not his own interests, but the interests of a group of people behind him.

Google was trying to sell me a matching algorithm as a service and now everything google makes that uses item matching (youtube, cards) is royally fucked.

cloud.google.com/solutions/real…
i get weirdly specific shit like "here's twenty articles on how to cook dishes with vodka" or "have a slurry of videos of animals that are mentally disabled or have eaten drugs" yeah well done googal
cards doesn't even work, it's just fucked, you get the random, worst results, most of the time the feed isn't even populated.

Hey all, I'm looking for remote work doing code, devops, bizdev, or management, short or long term. 15y of experience, any lang/db (best at Python/Go/Haskell/FP). Just DM me. Just beat the 'vid so now I'm up for a new challenge :) Please RT! (1/n)
I do lots of work in fintech, agency work, programming language design, and distributed systems, both as a lead dev and on my own, and I've helped lots of junior devs learn new things. I've run >50 meetups where me and others taught people how to do stuff :)
One thing that I get requests for often is for code reviews. If you're a learning developer, or if you're a non-technical user of a project and would like to know about its strengths and weaknesses, I can provide feedback. I love deep code dives! Example:

Recently someone asked me what I liked about Haskell and if I thought it was the best language. I said I liked it, but it wasn't the best. The gist of it was this tweet by @DRMacIver. (thread)
I like Haskell because it lets me build larger systems, more easily, and with less hassle, than any other lang I've used. It feels much more solid in the hand, like a quality hammer, compared to eg Python, which to me feels fragile, and cheap. I'll put more confidence in Haskell.
Haskell solves pretty much all issues that arise for small to medium sized projects and many that arise for large and very large projects. This is unlike Python/Java/C/PHP/Bash/C#/Scala which have issues at all scales. (I will collectively call them Python#++)

PSA: throw away any screwdrivers that are not isolated for > 1000V, in case you forget the one hand rule. Why? See below. #electronics
A little about me. Electronics is probably my #1 hobby. I hang out in chats and on mailing lists every day. Window #2 in irc client.
I have like a dozen tek scopes to back that hobby up. They're in boxes rn because I'm setting up my new space. Tall box is just plugins.
