I made the mistake 3 months ago of briefly listening to Rogan and he was also spreading misinformation about Seattle protesters based on doctored photos twitter.com/AlexPattyy/sta…
Joe Rogan lies to his millions of listeners that left-wing activists are starting forest fires in Oregon. This dangerous claim has been completely debunked.

Has anyone not decided who they are voting for in November at this point?
a colleague in a Zoom just reached behind and casually opened a window and it got me all kinds of resentful and sad.

I do invision a world where people can build applications and services without needing the whole orchestration fanfare that our device overlords have now made hard requirements in order to “deploy” something. It’s actually very daunting for a long term vision as I really do enjoy technology that this is the state of it now. We were promised a world of composition and instead we just got a bunch of stuff hooked into Firebase, Core Data and a few other things.

The founding fathers were deeply imperfect. The constitution was deeply flawed as well, but it provides a mechanism for evolution and improvement. Anyone who tells you that we've figured it all out, and can just stop improving isn't serious about governing or driving progress.
This sort of thinking is pervasive amongst conservative evangelicals. They think of our founding fathers as being infallible, and somehow appointed by God to deliver a pe...
This sort of thinking is pervasive amongst conservative evangelicals. They think of our founding fathers as being infallible, and somehow appointed by God to deliver a perfect text. Calling into question the constitution is equivalent to challenging scripture. It is very weird.
I simply note that Senator @MarshaBlackburn became a senator through the process established by the 17th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. And her righ...

New post: Plaidophile: Social media break beesbuzz.biz/blog/1524-Soci… Yesterday I decided to take a break from social media. This was for a number of reasons, but they all boil down to my increasing frustration with how interactions occur in rapid-fire quick-sharing spaces, and th…

Quoted The Californian Ideology by Richard Barbrook & Andy Cameron (Mute)
We need to debate what kind of hypermedia suit our vision of society - how we create the interactive products and on-line services we want to use, the kind of computers we like and the software we find most useful. We need to find ways to think socially and politically about the machines we develop. While learning from the can-do attitude of the Californian individualists, we also must recognise that the potentiality of hypermedia can never solely be realised through market forces. We need an economy which can unleash the creative powers of hi-tech artisans. Only then can we fully grasp the Promethean opportunities of hypermedia as humanity moves into the next stage of modernity. 
As true today as it was 25 years ago.

Just found out today that Digital Ocean is coming out with a new PaaS offering. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet, but this looks like it could be a real game changer. Exciting times!
Got to play around with @digitalocean's new App Platform and it's pretty sick 👌 Oh, and I did a quick write up on it as well 😉 devdojo.com/tnylea/digital…
