@EveKeneinan Yes. Just like the phrases “sexual *preferences*” and “*preferred* pronouns” in years gone by. It isn’t “identification” any more, it’s axiomatic.

🧵 THREAD 1/ Your daughter posts something online. She is 19. In college. Trying to figure out what she believes. She shares a political opinion that an algorithm flags as problematic. You do not see it happen. No one notifies you. No one tells her. But 72 hours later, her bank account is frozen. Her student loans are suspended. Her digital ID shows a compliance violation. And there is nothing you can do to protect her.

I'm completely convinced at this point that the "Command Palette" is a fundamental UI concept, and should be in all applications. It should also be a built in browser concept, there should be an API for websites to push items to the command palette ("new post", "muted words" etc)

X Rules: No “Wishing, hoping or expressing desire for harm. This includes hoping for others to die.” X User: “Lunduke can Kill Himself” X Support: No rule violation here! If X is going to allow people to threaten and wish harm on others, the rules should be changed to reflect that. As it stands, right now, @X rules are the same as a weaponized “Code of Conduct”. Used inconsistently and, hence, discriminatorily. @elonmusk & @nikitabier : You need to either consistently enforce rules or get rid of the rules.

Dying your hair “unnatural colors” is associated with depression and mental instability. Interesting.

Under Albanese’s rushed "Hate Speech" legislation a radical Islamic hate preacher will have legislative protection to say; "Wherever you find them, besiege them, capture them, kill them use every stratagem, lie in wait for them on every way" But if you say; "People saying the above should be deported from Australia" or "We shouldn’t be importing people into Australia from countries who hold these values" - you will face arrest and jail. Albanese is exploiting the Bondi massacre to make it illegal to criticise his mass migration policies, while at very same time giving legal protection to the preaching of the ideas that inspired the Bondi terrorist to murder innocent women and children. Every Australian must raise their voice and oppose this rushed disgraceful piece of legislation.

Dear ASIO, How many people on your terror watchlist have guns or live with someone who does? You've had two weeks. What's the answer? [reblog if you want to know]

When Australia's eSafety Commissioner DEMANDS news footage be taken down - it's like deleting the crime. The crime ceased to happen in the public record. She's burning newspapers instead of books. Now take a look at WHICH crimes she chooses to censor. Not the propaganda put out by pro-Palestine. Not the BLM stuff. She is censoring the crimes of Islamic terror against the West and black-on-white violence. We are not making this distinction, the eSafety Commissioner is. When you start dictating the news cycle - you become an editor. Editors have motivations. They have a brand. They have a purpose. What is the purpose of the eSafety Commissioner's editing of the international news?

Free isn’t free: the infrastructure behind open source has real costs, and it’s time we aligned usage with responsibility. This morning we jointly launch a new blog and open letter on sustainable stewardship. sonatype.com/blog/from-abus…

I think there is no clearer signal, and no clearer tos violation, than Hasan. If we want these not to devolve into dark times, he must be immediately suspended from twitch and YouTube. Forever. Do that one thing, and everyone will realize that the time of violent threats and calls for death are over.

The plots of disaster movies that portray the end of civilization often begin with high-level Government Officials ignoring the warnings of Scientists. One of several lesson learned from the 2.5 hour @netflix Documentary — Don’t Look Up (2021).

@davidgaw @marcorandazza Nice! While you’re at it, put in a request for the cost of making up - I mean calculating - all those costs.

There is an ocean of evidence that the universe was designed Yet atheist "scientists" refuse to accept reality Here are the biggest problems that secular science can't explain (and what the obvious answers are)... 🧵
