Spotify-owned outlet The Ringer moves newsletters by some of its most popular staff to Substack; Spotify declines to explain the strategy behind the move (Owen Lewis/Defector)

Nobody Wants To Talk About Why The Ringer Is Pivoting To Substack | Defector
A media company launching a series of paywalled newsletters is not, on its own and on its face, a strange thing to do. AI’s ongoing cannibalization of online search is ravaging website traffic, and programmatic advertising doesn’t provide the kind of revenue it used to. If you were running a website like The Ringer, you…

How much code is that? If your answer involves a captcha service, a response subscriber and cache configuration: it's actually three words in your route

At 27 pages into Gil Duršn’s new book “The Nerd Reich” I came full stop at this sentence:
“As many political schools of thought do, these technolibertarians make a philosophy out of a personality defect.”
Simply and elegantly stated. The various techno-optimistic philosophies running around Silicon Valley and the venture capital community are toxic and inhumane. We are desperately in need of a new tech manifesto that puts human wellbeing, acceptance, compassion and love as first principals. Why do we write code if not for this? The current direction of technology leadership has taken a wrong turn onto a dark and destructive path. This needs to change.
This is a great book so far. Highly recommend it.

Et toujours ce mardi, le Bund affirmait que le groupe de hackers Akira, semble-t-il Š l’origine de ce vol, avait aussi volé des informations de plus de 100 000 employés fédéraux, y compris des agents secrets, des soldats d’élite et d’anciens membres du Conseil fédéral. Les pirates auraient dérobé 100 gigaoctets de données, puis effacé toutes les données stockées sur le serveur des entreprises. letemps.ch/cyber/la-suisse-fai
