„How do you lovingly care for an aging parent who treated you like shit?
[…]
You lovingly care for an aging parent by making sure that the way they treated you stops with you. You lovingly care for an aging parent by learning how to love others, and by letting them love you.”
This is a cathartic piece that resonated with me. My parents do not treated me like shit but I resonate with the
somewhat disconnectedness.

How to bury your father
This week’s question comes to us anonymously: How do you lovingly care for an aging parent who treated you like shit? This question has been sitting in my...

You do not vote syndicalist, you organize syndicalist, so treating it like an election choice in Kaiserreich is fundamentally silly.
Because of that, I’m buying myself Hearts of Iron IV just to install Kaiserreich and laugh at it.
Image is probably AI-generated; I grabbed it from DuckDuckGo and genuinely do not care.

The Page Isn’t Dead, Your Attention Is Under Siege
Every few years we are invited to attend the same funeral. Someone declares that nobody reads anymore, that the printed page is finished, that books are an aging technology destined to become a museum object while the living culture migrates to earbuds and short video. It is a tempting story because it flatters our sense that we are witnessing a clean break with the past, a decisive turn of the wheel.

I'm using #git subtree for the first time in a real setting. It feels nicer than git submodules, because you can just commit and everything downstream is included. You can then push the individual subtrees later and it'll pick only the commits that actually touched their directories. `git log` gets a bit crowded though with duplicate commits (from parent and subtree repos). And there's no …

Internal messages: Amazon pushes in-house AI coding assistant Kiro for production code, prompting criticism and causing ~1,500 staff to push for Claude Code (Eugene Kim/Business Insider)
https://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-engineer…

Amazon limits on Claude Code frustrate employees, including some who have to sell it to cloud customers
The tech giant's internal policy promotes an in-house tool called Kiro over Anthropic's Claude Code. Some Amazon engineers are unhappy about this.

Pronto, consegui terminar o trabalho aqui. Eu não resisti ao cansaço e dormi durante a tarde 😬. É muito incomum eu dormir assim no meio do dia. Acho que foi uma combinação de ter acordado cedo e exercícios físicos (a instrutora hoje pegou pesado).

Long winter nights, red light on, UV burner on... So have missed making my own prints, and so glad to be able to pick this up again (and also working with older techniques, which are new to me), all after more than three decades... Still some more kinks to work out before I can share some proper prints, e.g. experimenting with different exposure times, toners (gold/selenium), fixers, concentrations... All very much like a science experiment and meticulous log keeping has been key (as have be…
