One of the reasons I appreciate and respect trans people, is that understanding yourself at that level, and choosing to assert your identity in that way, is punk (as in rock) as fuck.
I suspect this might be what triggers some bigots so easily too. They could never do so for themselves in their own lives.

Und dann auch noch von "Datenspendenden" reden?
Wenn's um das Gemeinwohl gehen würde, dann sollten diese Daten kostenlos verfügbar sein, schließlich werden die Eingangsdaten von allen Teilnehmenden gespendet.

speaking of propagators, this just showed up on the HN front page https://www.orionreed.com/posts/scoped-propagators
very cool!
new blog post: functional reactive user interfaces with propagators
https://dthompson.us/posts/functional-reactive-user-interfaces-with-propagators.html
a fun little experiment in declarative ui that doesn't do the react virtual dom thing.
@dthompson @daviwil I remember Sussmann saying the same in *We Really Don't Know How to Compute*, that the syntax he used for propagators is not necessarily final and that we should find a more expressive way to represent them
Personally I think visual graphs show a lot of promise in this regard, since they seem like a pretty nearly 1:1 mapping, e.g.: https://holograph-1.vercel.app/
Vielleicht können CDU/CSU/FDP/SPD/Grüne ja aus Frankreich die Idee abgucken, dass man Wahlen gewinnen kann, wenn man entschieden GEGEN Rechtsextreme auftritt?
(Noch krasser: In dem sie auch noch darauf verzichten, die rassistische Politik einfach selbst zu erledigen?)
I wonder: Does anyone want to write their own browser engine? In your choice of language/framework?
Because I'm happy to mentor! I've found some tricks in my own attempts.
Since I see plenty of thirst for more options...
If there's one thing I've learned as a browser-engine dev: Everything is political!
The most mundane things (e.g. how we answer "what time is it?") has the weight of historical politics behind it.
Software freedom is a political project, you can't "leave politics out of it"!
It makes a lot more sense to ask "how is this political?" than "is this political?". Because it is!
Shower thought: Companies only pay taxes on their profits — after subtracting all overhead from their revenue. People should get the same treatment. After subtracting our reasonable housing costs, electricity, water, transportation and a reasonable rate for their time (since companies get to deduct salaries to employees as overhead, we should get to do the same), the remainder is what we should pay taxes on.

While #Ladybird is trending, keep in mind the devs are misogynist and transphobic fucks 0:-)
The whole internet loves Milkshake Ladybird, a lovely browser not based on Chrome! *5 seconds later*

Once I told my colleagues that I despise capitalism more and more, the older I get.
My boomer colleague said exactly this to me...
Well no, I still despise it more, with every minute I live.
I turned 41 on Sunday and I've only gotten more radical since my 20s

Die ARD-Journalistin Kathrin Schmid demonstriert in ihrem Kommentar zur »Chat-Kontrolle« ihre offensichtliche technische Unkenntnis, indem sie Grundrechte polemisch gegeneinander ausspielt. In einem Beitrag zeigen wir, dass mit weniger Oberflächlichkeit und mehr Sachverstand der Sache des Kinderschutzes mehr gedient wäre. 👇
