This is to avoid a memory leak in the scenario where a person rapidly refreshes a class-based (state maintaining) Kitten page. In such a scenario, the almost instant page lifecycle does not allow enough time for the page’s default WebSocket to connect and disconnect from the …

Things like the #NoKings protests may feel like they're not enough, but they can be useful for building that network. Asking neighbors if they're going can help open up conversations, can lead to more conversations, can provide openings to find ways to escalate resistance, and can let you build what you need to feel safe going hard if you realize it's time.
Protests directly against facilities and other direct actions are small escalations that let you build trust and understand your network. If you want to know where you need to be, look at Twin Cities. That is the type of response that makes the machine grind to halt.
Make that happen everywhere and more escalation may not be necessary. And, if it is necessary to escalate more, that level of community organizing makes all other forms of escalation sustainable.

It turns out that just as we can see the sun and infer the invisible circle of strongest polarisation in the sky, a bee can reconstruct the sun’s position even when it is hidden. She does this by detecting the polarisation of light across other parts of the sky.
Because the entire pattern of polarisation shifts with the sun, even a small patch of open sky is enough. From it, the bee can recover the sun’s position - and with it, her sense of direction.

None of the "code generation" stuff is new by the way.
The tech industry has tried to speed up coding and increase software output for the last 3 to 4 decades, by various means; e.g. Rapid Application Development, Expert Systems, Object-Oriented Programming, thousands of different frameworks all the way to trying to off-shore development and exploit third-world labor.
The problem with this is: there is no software scarcity. Pretending that "we can't make software fast enough" is a red herring to hide the fact that making (good) software is 90% painstaking research, design, planning, marketing and talking to and supporting customers.
And 10% writing the actual code—the C-suite is doing ye olde "trying to find a technical solution to a social problem".

Yesterday’s equity rally was driven by Donald Trump appearing to blink first in the Iranian war, by claiming “very good” talks had taken place with Tehran and postponing any attacks on Iran’s energy infrastructure for five days.

I've been in my career long enough that there are some things that I used to be exceptional at that I literally have no idea about now.

I am old enough to have played #Doom in my childhood, but young enough not to have played it thorough back then. Since then, I've played through the remake of the first episode on Doom 3 engine, Classic Doom, and played a bit via Doomsday.
Finally, I've started replaying them all. I've decided to go with crispy-doom, which gives makes them quite accurate, with minimal improvements. And I'm playing on gamepad, which turns out just the right choice for an old game with partial autoaim.
So far I've finished Ultimate Doom and #Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders. And I have to say that these games are much better than I remembered.
Doom is just great, though I have to say that the fourth episode (the one added in Ultimate Doom) is a bit uneven; it's still great, but it's start with a very hard first map and then seems to become progressively easier.
But Heretic is even better. And I have to say that all five episodes (two being expansions) are great.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@samiamsam/116459688263848899
Rights are things you defend with guns. If you don't have guns, are not organized enough to defend them, or are unwilling to "go that far," then you don't have rights.
But I ultimately challenge the logic of "rights." The entire framing of "rights" is somewhat individualist though. Once you have the power to assert your rights, you really have no reason to support others... Which is exactly the situation we're in now.
I actually think it's worth throwing out entirely. Instead, I like the concept of "obligations." We all owe obligations to each other by way of all of our existences being intertwined. You can ignore your obligations, just like you can ignore any debt, but you can't really escape them.
They also don't require anything to exist. They exist on their own. You choose to act on those obligations or not, which again comes back to what you're willing to do... But from a different angle, and for *others* not for yourself.

This is as good a time as any for a thought experiment.
You're in Nazi Germany. You know about the camps, you know what they do, you see the ash fall, you smell it. People who resist alone are killed, some are sent to the camps too. You're afraid to even talk to people about it for fear that they'll turn you in.
You think back to when the camps were being built. You had all the warning signs, but you didn't know how to interpret them. You could believe it would happen. You thought you'd have a chance to vote him out. You thought there might be another way. You thought maybe things would turn out differently if you just sat tight, kept your head down, kept yourself safe.
You see a family being dragged from their home. You know they will be killed. You want to fight, not just for them but for yourself. You opposed Hitler, and at any point you know you could be on the list... Even if you do nothing.
You wish you could rise up, shoot the SS, open the gates, fight it all. You know you aren't alone, but you don't know how to connect with the people who want the same thing.
Using the knowledge we have now, what should you have done in the preceding months and years to connect, to build a community that would open up all paths of resistance?
There were people who resisted. We know it wasn't enough.
Gun laws in Nazi Germany were very similar to US laws in that Nazis were largely free to own guns and everyone else was not. Unlike the US, where "others" have historically controlled using the fear that they might be randomly executed, Germany did codify it. Red flag laws were one more step in the US towards that codification, and there will be more.
When Nazis were taking away those guns, the social networks didn't exist to make resistance possible for most folks. But some Jews were able to resist.
It wasn't the guns that made the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising possible, though they definitely helped. The Warsaw Ghetto uprising was made possible by labor organizing in the precessing years.
If there were more uprisings like that, the Holocaust could have been stopped if not prevented. Social networks make resistance possible. Guns are only useful tools to resist authoritarianism *after* you build a community able to support that resistance, and they are only one of many tools made useful by that community.
Getting guns is easy, and not always necessary. Building community is hard. Guns won't keep you safe. Community will.
Single acts of resistance may slow the machine down, but to actually bring down a monster you need to be able to attack more than once. You need a society of resistance. If you are afraid now, build that. Talk to people while it's still safe to do so. Ask them where their red line is. Talk to neighbors. Figure out your network.
Take the steps you need now to keep your neighbors safe, to keep yourself safe.

There are also a bunch of other interesting things. The Seattle Grand Jury Resisters were kept in solitary confinement (for several months) under the pretext that this would compel them to testify. Belonging to a church together could have made such compulsion (more visibly) illegal. While I don't actually believe that the US government would follow the law, not then and especially not now, being able to talk about this as religious persecution could be enough to make other religious groups that align with Trump become more skittish.

This becomes especially interesting when you understand the history of the church as a quasi-revolutionary organization. One could describe early church history as a mostly-successful attempt to overthrow the Roman empire. I say mostly successful because, in the end, the Roman state mutated the church for it's own ends and basically pulled a Lenin.
The early church was a religion of women and slaves that set up alternative institutions. See, the Roman economic system basically ran through the temples. Temples were basically the banks of their day (thus money changers in the temples and all that). So when the church set up their own institutions, they were actually attacking the economic system of the Roman empire. *That* is why the empire tried to destroy them. The Romans didn't really care about the gods. They would just mutate their beliefs to pull other pagans in. No, it wasn't about the gods. The Christian were fucking with the money.
The whole church as an institution was about dual power, and Paul (one of the early founders of the church) was central to organizing this into a political machine that could actually threaten the dominant order. One could argue that he saw the potential of the church, and used it to solidify his own power.
It all basically worked, right up until Constantine figured out how to flip the whole thing against the most radical elements. He had his people collect up different books of the Bible and modify them in such a way that it favored Rome. The trick here was to highlight the existing antisemitic threads of early church, and destroy the anti-Roman ones. Anti-authoritarian sects were killed as heretics, and centralized sects became aligned under the church.
This strategy of controlling internal dissent probably feels quite familiar. It's basically how the US works.
But this whole time, during the whole lead up to this, Christianity was illegal and it was continuing to grow as a system of dual power. When Romanism merged with Christianity, it created the most authoritarian institution in human history that brutally destroyed all opposition. Even still, several hundred years later it's power broke.
Today Liberalism has separated banking and the church, and has created the illusion of separation of church and state. But the same dual power strategy that allowed the first church to gain enough power to merge with the Roman power structure have now allowed Christian Nationalism to fully merge with Americanism into the Christian Fascism we see today...

The US military has significantly depleted its stockpile of key missiles during the war with Iran
and created a “near-term risk” of running out of ammunition in a future conflict should one arise in the next few years,
according to experts and three people familiar with recent internal Defense Department stockpile assessments.
Over the last seven weeks of war,
the US military has expended at least 45% of its stockpile of Precision Strike Missiles;
at least half …

Last Rounds? Status of Key Munitions at the Iran War Ceasefire
The United States has depleted its missile inventories but still has enough to continue fighting this war under any plausible scenario. The risk is with future wars—particularly against a peer competitor like China.

The English-language edition of Wikipedia
is blacklisting Archive.today
after the controversial archive site was used to direct a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack against a blog.
In
course of discussing whether Archive.today should be deprecated because of the DDoS,
Wikipedia editors discovered that the archive site altered snapshots of webpages
to insert the name of the blogger who was targeted by the DDoS.
The alterations were apparently…

If DDoSing a blog wasn't bad enough, archive site also tampered with web snapshots.

Both Democratic and Republican administrations spent decades searching for the elusive Iranian moderate.
The search was always misconceived.
The question was never whether Iran had moderates.
The question was whether America had a strategy serious enough to matter to the people in power
— and patient enough to empower the people who could eventually change who that is.
The corrections are not complicated.
