  • I delete all my social media periodically for similar reasons.

    Even communities of people who are really level headed and supportive, like academics and engineers. Eventually there is groupthink, tribalism, and generally people who I am over (and I'm sure it's mutual)

  • I had the opposite experience. Some in house devs are extremely talented and have (middle) management support.

    (Upper management fires those groups and uses the savings to buy Atlassian)

  • Remember open source wikis? Twiki?

    They were much better. More functional, faster, intuitive.

    Corporates got rid of those and Atlassian got rich

  • Having used quite a few others: hard disagree

    Several companies I've worked at had bespoke internal systems that were less general but extremely efficient to use.

    It kills me to think some bean counters probably gutted them and gave the money to Atlassian

    • Firefox is fine. The people running it are not

  • LibreWolf saved the spirit of firefox. Screw the Mozilla Board of Grifters. They could have just provided hosting for open source solutions/VPNs and sell lots of swag maybe host an actually good podcast ... but no, they leaned into selling user data WTF

    • All downhill from there

  • Interesting, that dynamic is in line with the 'radiator' theory of human brain evolution.

    From a more recent article:

    the shift to an aerobic, hunter-gatherer lifestyle in early Homo, including long-distance running, exerted selection pressures that favored both increased endurance and enhanced brain growth

    Edit: ... so, we're not batteries. We're cooling fins.

  • Questions are piling up about whether a region nicknamed "Flash Flood Alley" should have done more to prepare for Friday's deluge [...] "It's very tough to make those calls," Rice said.

    Quite the mic drop. But wait:

    Texas officials have suggested that the National Weather Service (NWS) didn't adequately warn them

    hampered by the Trump administration's cuts to the federal workforce, which cost the NWS nearly 600 workers earlier this year

    I do vaguely wonder how this stuff is spun by the Pravda-level propaganda that MAGA consumes.
