Studies (N=90K, 60 countries) finds when people experience lack of personal control, they gravitate to those who resemble them (race, religion, class, personality). This can lead to homogenous teams, less exposure to diverse perspectives & less innovation. hbr.org/2024/12/research-why-f…

The latest edition of the trolley problem:
On track 1 are thousands of innocent children.
On track 2 is one, single CEO guilty of causing the deaths of hundreds, maybe thousands, by refusing health care they've paid for.

To which track do _you_ send the car?

Picture of Mangione, accused of killing on CEO, surrounded by armed police though not a threat. "Very few school shooters have gotten the death penalty yet thre the U.S. is trying to charge Luigi Mangione so he gets the death penalty for killing one man. You can kill dozens of kids but get a lesser sentence because their lives don't matter as a CEO's. That's America" ps. They damn well matter more!

i've been made aware that the website 'XOSYC' has stolen my designs and is selling them at an absurd markup. it should go without saying but don't buy any Fold Up Toys from this site, it's not authorised and i don't even know if you'll get what you purchase at all

the joys of designing digital art 🫣

Although the option to use one's own domain name as a Bluesky handle limits the value of handle squatting/selling, some folks are trying anyway. Searching for repeated biographies containing contact info reveals groups of accounts created for this purpose.

At some point, somebody mentionned that many libraries/packages used by (linux) distros are not maintained and would need somebody to take care of. I'm looking to dedicate time on this.
Do you know one such library?
