Instacart is firing every employee who voted to unionize last year, as part of a large round of layoffs. The move could have a chilling effect on other Instacart organizing efforts:

An update on how it’s going switching to @craftdocsapp: Awesome!! 🎉 Sharing links and saving tech research to structured notes organized in folders organized in spaces is just incredible. Working now with another person in a shared space, and it all Just Works. I’m in love. 🥰
Shoutout to @macpowerusers for turning me onto @craftdocsapp. I’ve been saving/authoring content in various apps (Ulysses, Bear, Notion, and Day One), but no clear visi...
Woo-hoo, my new M1 MacBook Pro arrived! Time to let Migration Assistant do its thing. Can’t wait to see how this thing performs, and I really hope it finally solves my computer reliability woes.
But can I create a test user named Boaty Mcboatface?
All right, I'm putting this out there so I have some accountability. 😅 The **all-new** @_whitefusion website will launch by the end of the month. 💥 I don't know why it's like pulling teeth to work on your own business website, but I think I finally know what I'm doing! 🤪💪
No. No screens. No touch. Just buttons and a nice shape. If you want to make a great remote control, just start with the only remote worth stanning for... the TiVo peanut! https://t.co/kAZjaorrLm

Interesting! Wish they would dig a bit deeper into Micropub, Microsub, and other IndieWeb standards. They reference IndieWeb in passing, but that's pretty much it. If they're looking for a lead, tapping into the IndieWeb community is a great place to start!

Taking inspiration from the decades-old literature of "il giusto tempo" and the slow culture, John Allsopp shares his musings about what the online-conference equivalent of "Savoring the hours and minutes rather than just counting them" could (and maybe even should) look like:

My "style", such as it is, is geek curmudgeon: it primarily consists of a series of work hoodies and Venture Brothers t shirts. Doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate high style. I love having this stuff explained for me, just as I am grateful for enjoying any art I can’t make.

dawn awakens. Our sun glistens time frozen in fading frost For trees, leaves long fallen, speak today of poetry A cadence carried on weight of shrinking shadows in the prosody of our politic. #smallpoems #clmooc (quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/fTQE9)
dawn
awakens.

Our sun

time frozen

frost
For trees,
leaves long
fallen,

shadows
in the prosody
of our politic.
