Quite surprised to see so many positive replies to the post. Do those people just not agree with the idea of an embargo at all? It feels pretty obvious to me that if you trust someone to wait, and they don't, then next time you won't give them the information (binaries, whatever) in the first place

Further complicating the effort to release PHP patches Wednesday was a remarkable breach of protocol alleged to have been committed by Chainguard, a company that develops open-source software designed to reduce cybersecurity vulnerabilities. National news! 😵 www.nbcnews.com/tech/securit...

Asking random American Muslims to disavow the Muslim Brotherhood is like asking random American Jews to disavow Israel. They’re both tropes about dual loyalties. If you can understand why one is inappropriate, you should be able to understand why the other is, too.
Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed disavowed the Muslim Brotherhood, an Islamist political movement, during a heated exchange at a town hall. https://cnn.it/4s7r1TL

Do we all agree on what he slogan Free Palestine” means? I took screenshots of an illustrated post by Jordyn Tilchen on Instagram explaining how it was designed to be vague & sow chaos by not having a 100% clear definition. Please read this through this thread & understand the manipulation at work.>

You can now run Kubernetes 1.37 preview in GKE. Yes, OSS unreleased 1.37 😁 Alpha Clusters for now, try any API but the cluster has a 30 day limit so you don't depend before OSS is ready. Something I've been working on with a bunch of talented coworkers 🙂 docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-e...
All LLM output needs significant editing before it's good. This is true for code and for prose.
Claude produces overly verbose and often confusing documentation. Please clean up stuff before you pass that off to other humans. Not an endorsement for other LLM's. I know gpt can tend to be quite terse and my guess is it would do the same with docs which is still the same problem.

"A Sanhedrin that would execute somebody once every seven years is a bloody court. Rabbi Elazar Ben Azariah says: 'Once every 70 years.' Rabbi Tarfon and Rabbi Akiva said: 'If we were on the Sanhedrin we would never have killed anyone!'" - Mishnah Makkot 1:10
The Knesset passed a bill today mandating the death penalty for Palestinians convicted of terror - but not for Jews. There is a word for a legal system where different legal standards apply to different categories of people. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

NYT: young people at CPAC are "J-pilled," defined as slang for "skepticism of Israeli influence" Then a few grafs later they quote a groyper who says "at least 60 percent of the young people here" are fans of Nick Fuentes, who wants to deport all Jews from America www.nytimes.com/2026/03/30/s...

And if you’re new here, abortion bans are not just a violation of the 14th amendment, but the 1st amendment as well— both Establishment Clause AND Free Exercise Clause.

In evaluating the whining about “doxxing” — by which they mean identifying federal employees who killed someone under color of law - remember this administration cooperates with a large cadre of obedient bootlicker Right media that leaps to the tasks of viciously lying about anyone they kill.
Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

Quite a change to go from "these were domestic terrorists and their killings were totally justified, heroic even" to "no one wants these people killed, how DARE you suggest trump wants this." I wonder if the press will be capable of covering this shameless flailing as a scandal
Leavitt: "Nobody in the White House, including President Trump, wants to see people getting hurt or killed in America's streets. This includes Renee Good, Alex Pretti, the brave men and women of law enforcement, and the many Americans who have been victimized by illegal alien criminals"

It's not hard. Speak with clarity.
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

This is, in my opinion, not only the correct moral/ethical/legal position but also the correct political framing. Everyone can see the agency is out of control; everyone can see that it is constantly violating human rights. "Scrap it and start over" is the moderate position.

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
