All hail sovereign immunity
A nugget buried in this piece: The City Attorney's Office is requesting an additional $210,000 this fall to cover the salary of an additional attorney to help the city ...

Has anyone managed to properly seal their devkit version of the PineTime? I’m interested in taking it on more real world situations (health tracking, sleep monitoring, etc) and my toy Rust apps can only go so far.

Meeting author @ainissaramirez tonight @QuarantineBook and look forward to listen to narrate her new book The Alchemy of Us about materials science (I checked it out from @LAPublicLibrary)

This is TONIGHT. I can’t wait to chat with you. Let’s get together virtually. twitter.com/QuarantineBook…
Okay this is extremely good. Nice work @powells.

Rest aggressively during eternal Caturday.

I do not understand how you can call yourself pro-small business and entrepreneurship and think the US system of health care is better than single payer.
Big Sur is very pretty and Safari is an improvement. My complaint is items on the menu bar are hard to see and not very accessible.
I’m downloading Big Sur while watching Tour de France stage 14. First time, I’ve beta tested a macOS. No @ malarkey involved.
See you in today’s "Quarantine Book Club with author Ainissa Ramirez" eventbrite.com/e/quarantine-b… @Eventbrite

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.

Intel support responds to me 2 months and 15 days later. On Twitter. I’m sure glad I didn’t make a phone call and waited on hold. twitter.com/intelsupport/s…

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…
