Wordpress Versus Jamstack πŸ”—
1602760352  


I think the point that wordpress is missing is engagement. I doubt most low-effort WP blogs and stuff are not high engagement; to some extent neither are their competition. No CMS is built around that workflow aside from SAAS like substack and locals.

UC Spends 800k trying to shut down satirical campus paper, fails πŸ”—

I love how satire is universally the most censored. Encyclopedia Dramatica is the poster child here -- I don't think even stormfront has been booted from hosting as much as them.

At 1,550,000 bar. A wee bit impractical.

Corona Reinfection Data and the implications πŸ”—

Seems that the biggest risk is that this thing mutates fast enough for the previous immunity to be irrelevant after a few months, however not in enough amount to really care that much about it. It does sound like vaccinators are at least targeting the right thing, though I remain skeptical (with this amount of mutation) that any vaccine will ultimately be effective at anything other than waving a dead chicken regarding the stop of corona. That said, it's been being waved as the magical talisman that ends lockdowns, so government and the clerisy has more or less written themselves into a corner regarding the magic necessary to "go back to normal." Perhaps that's the reason the Russians were ultimately so fast to market.

It's almost as if living up to people's expectations especially when they are unfair is the important part. People can't stop being people, unfortunately for you πŸ˜‚ (and this is regardless of your gender... woe be to those without "Amor Fati"?)

Good advice for those starting out and trying to get skills...but when you have them, you don't have to care about what hiring managers think, as you are fully capable of doing your own thing.

As expected, some firms doubling down on critical theory training πŸ”—

They know the bureaucracies which would enforce Trump's ban are already filled with agents of the clerisy, and will as such be incapable of enforcement.

Lessons from the latest war πŸ”—

The US Army's obsession with flaming coffins will, like the navy's carrier obsession, kill many American boys for no good reason come the next great power war.

Yet another dubious Trump "bringing the troops home" promise πŸ”—

The true american aesthetic πŸ”—
1602664496  


Above all, Patton’s timeless words must be remembered for generations to come β€œAll real Americans love to fight! Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser!”. America is not Sweden, nor is it Germany. This is not a place for a massive social safety net, nor is it a place where an average person can β€œlive with dignity”, as the left would suggest. The American middle class will continue to decline, but a sizable portion of ordinary Americans will join the upper-middle-class. Nonetheless, there is truth to the observation that upward mobility has declined in the U.S, as the middle class shrunk and the majority of ordinary Americans who worked in the blue collar field have struggled to achieve upward mobility. Donald Trump has taken note of that and vowed to β€œbring the jobs back”. At the face of it, bringing the jobs back certainly seems like a tall order, as it’s extraordinarily difficult to reverse the decades’ long trend of outsourcing that emerged in a globalized market. Although it remains an open question as to whether Trump will be able to keep his promise, from the standpoint of the American identity, it is simply irrelevant. America does not tolerate losers, never did and never will.
Best pre-election essay I think you'll read.

Prefer fakes over mocks πŸ”—

Agreed -- This makes prototyping incredibly easy, and one of the largest and most important investments is gonna be your data model. Let that take the most useful shape by developing the entire application around fake data until you can't deal with fakes anymore.

Cuomo on tape: Lockdowns are to placate the timid πŸ”—

β€œI’m 100 percent frank and candid. This is not a highly nuanced, sophisticated response. This is a fear-driven response. You know, this is not a policy being written by a scalpel, this is a policy being cut by a hatchet. It is just very blunt,” he said.

When "the anxiety comes down, we can have a smarter more tailored approach," he continued.
Since the beginning, fear is the virus.

This is why I'm not really worried about social media dominance. Having your own platform is more profitable in the end anyways.
