This is the way. Being able to hire people is one of the top things that affect company policy.

Apart from its digital gauge cluster that also serves as the rearview camera display, power locks, cruise control, and a forward-collision-warning system with automated emergency braking, the Truck offers little in the way of luxuries.

Sounds nice. I do like highway lane following, but not essential.

So true. I recently learned there’s a Python package for natural sorting, similar in other languages.

Thanks for sharing. All these experiences are very illuminating regarding the lesser impact of socialization, too. Like, I might have thought my female colleagues had just been told to cede the floor so many times they didn’t often speak at meetings. And that could still be adding to it, but here are the same individuals with the same habits getting starkly different treatment.

Even knowing these trends from countless other stories and statistics, hearing each additional experience helps keep it in mind and see more often when it’s happening.

I hope the repercussions land on Trump and his cronies, and but just on this particular show of global bullying around tariffs.

Short article.

Putin told Steve Witkoff, Trump’s special envoy, during a meeting in St Petersburg earlier this month that Moscow could relinquish its claims to areas of four partly occupied Ukrainian regions that remain under Kyiv’s control, the report said citing three people familiar with the talks.

So wait, Putin is willing to make a deal with Trump in which he cedes invaded land that he doesn’t actually control?

I can’t tell from the article if there’s a real problem. None of the levels exceed FDA thresholds, and it sounds bad, but there’s also no definite claim of harm.

Hah, yeah I got a Debian floppy and then tried to install packages over DSL. Somehow it didn’t immediately kill my interest in Linux, eventually ran OpenBSD as my server for a while.

Very elegant and seductive.

Citation?

“And he paid for, at least in part, a drone and explosives to be used as a weapon of mass destruction to commit an attack,” investigators said in the federal affidavit.

What’s “mass” about one drone? Is this just language to bring different legalities to bear?

Here he is:

What a mom, just reassuring her daughter the whole time.

I’ve been donating to Democracy Forward, who is suing people around the clock.

Octopus Lady is 100% crazy ocean creature facts. Also on Nebula.

If you haven’t played with Pulumi (for configuring cloud services) and Ansible (for local services, shell commands, apt installs etc) you may enjoy them as a way to capture / re-apply configuration.

Have seen this IRL. The only part that’s inaccurate is that the poop would be a single object rather than an area effect.

Video of the abduction. Good on the people of Boston for shouting them down in the street. Looks like some ICE goons without masks this time.

Thanks. Pleasantly surprised that there are not too many ALPRs nearby me according to deflock.me. I was thinking, though, what about privately owned ALPRs to track known enforcement vehicles. I didn’t know what laws come into play there (or what unequal enforcement). The photos on the article do look high quality though, definitely beyond a Pi camera board pointed out a window. OTOH tagging “purple bumper sticker” or “bike rack” honestly doesn’t sound that far beyond OpenCV or AI tools these days.

What’s the camera technology like? Is a distributed citizen-owned network to watch the watchers feasible?

Description of ICE training and practices, including:

What this means is that ICE cannot enter a home without a judicial warrant (a warrant signed by a judge) or voluntary permission (consent) from an authorized adult. They almost never have a judicial warrant and therefore need consent to legally enter your home. ICE agents uses ruses as a way to get inside homes without identifying that they are ICE.

It’s not clear to me if “resisting arrest” is a thing with ICE.

I do do interviews too. It’s a lot of time and work. A well designed interview can and should be a realistic, rewarding problem solving session where you get to try out collaboration with potential colleagues.
