How is it possible in 2026 for Canon to not provide (anywhere) an ICC profile for their scanners?! The colors are completely off and everything has a purple tint... 😩
Does anyone know where to find ICC profiles for the Canon LIDE series (400)? Otherwise I will have to purchase an IT8.7 calibration target and crack out the LittleCMS tooling to create my own ICC profile. Great customer service!

I bet it's really difficult to get a profile pic like that when you lack a spine. Probably a whole elaborate system behind him holding his head upright.

Congress should pass a War Powers Resolution, and if there’s any indication President Trump will follow through on this threat, the cabinet must invoke the 25th Amendment.

So this is news to me. In the lead up to the 2018 Brazilian election, Jair Bolsonaro claimed he was not working with Steve Bannon. It turns out he was working with both Bannon AND Jeffrey Epstein.

Bra genomgång av Expo! https://expo.se/kommentar/propalestinsk-organisator-sprider-judehat/

Sluta kalla antisemitism för Israelkritik
I mars åtalades den ledande propalestinska organisatören i Stockholm för hets mot folkgrupp efter ett antisemitiskt tal under en demonstration. I sociala medier delar han tal av Adolf Hitler och annat grovt judehat helt öppet. Trots detta är många vänsteraktivister och en del forskare beredda att försvara hans antisemitiska utspel som Israelkritik.

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

People tell me that #AI code is fine, because you can run automatic tests. But tests can only tell you if code is doing the thing you want it to do.
To know what it SHOULD do, we used to have requirements. But now requirements are themselves vibe-coded slopotypes.
People were hoping that this would get them higher velocity, but testing the requirements in production only produces waste an…

Checking an LLM's work is a systemic, not an individual, problem.
Only a culture of design critique can prevent sloppy AI-generated problem definitions.

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",
