Heute schrieb ich wieder einen Leserbrief: "Probleme durch #SozialeMedien ohne Alternativen" an den #Falter:

Due process isn't a privilege enjoyed by American citizens.
It's a promise made BY American citizens, to everyone.
It's one of our core values as a country.
You'd think a rep would know that and fight for it, not against it.

View transitions, anchor positioning, ​@scope, focusgroup, invokers, popovers, container queries, grid, relative colors, style-able selects, and more. The web feels like it’s getting so good at exactly the moment our collective worst practices are getting calcified as the default.

I've been watching a technical meltdown about to happen for a few weeks, and the communication about it was very abstract, and _nobody_ but a few caremad nerds got any real conversation going. And nothing was done. Turns out: caremad nerds talking about abstract problems doesn't do shit.
But then the problem became less theoretical, and actual measurements of the problem came out, pointing to specific impacts and places and situations. Now people are taking action!
I wonder if there's a lesson in here somewhere. :P

In a rare public criticism of a fellow member of the Supreme Court,
Justice Sonia Sotomayor criticized Justice Brett Kavanaugh
for his justification of racial profiling
in immigration-based stops of U.S. citizens.
“I had a colleague in that case who wrote, you know, these are only temporary stops,”
Sotomayor said at a University of Kansas School of Law event on Tuesday.
She was referring to the case of
"Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo",
