Here’s my 35th “Long Links” outing, curation of long-form offerings, which assume that nobody has time to read all this stuff but one or two of the pieces might brighten your day. This one is mostly political but some of the politics are from France and China. Plus a way-cool analytical history of blogging and a section labeled “wonderful things”.

Stop pretending that things are not seriously messed up. 
See the STN for what it is.
Stop pretending that CS holds answers it does not.
Don’t try to instill improved characteristics into rotten enterprises.
The first question to ask: should you build the thing at all? 7. Attend to the primary reason for the thing; follow the money. 
 Move slow and fix things.
Foreground your employer’s social impact. 
Stop the Orwellian double-speak.
