  • In my opinion, if Newsom is anything worth his salt, he would invest public funds into tiny homes and basically guaranteed jobs for the homeless, rather than being cool with things like:

    • living in the BART facilities
    • living in tents on the street
    • being rounded up into random buildings/facilities because Xi is coming
    • $20 minimum wage for everyone but Panera Bread since the CEO is my friend

    Newsom, literally with the stoke of a pen, could invest public funds into helping the homeless in a provable way, yet he does not. The only conclusion I can come to is that he does not want to.

    Please, convince me otherwise, but the state of, at least, SF under Newsom (and big tech, admittedly) has greatly deteriorated










  • Delete hosted cloud. Move back to hosting your own. When every cloud is different (since it’s built and configured by some random IT and DevOps people for that company) it becomes much harder to find an exploit than it is in the big 3 cloud providers. Security by obscurity.

    Cloud services targeting governments are just a giant scam (e.g. FedRamp). They are just as vulnerable as everything else, the only difference is some slick salesperson was able to land a contract by talking about how much money it would save by not having to hire “expensive engineers” directly. This is exactly where it leads, and it’s not a surprise, it’s a known known in big tech.


  • I feel this same way about most the Disney live action remakes. I thought they were enjoyable blasts from the past (for me) but the internet and critics absolutely hated them which was puzzling. I guess I also have felt the same way about remakes where the actor is a different race than the original lore… Who cares?

    “Oh noes, Snow White is no longer a ‘damsel in distress’ being kissed by a random dude while she is… checks notes… Unconscious??? AND the actress is Hispanic??? This ruins my life” - literally conservatives so much so that Disney cancelled it.
