Their news room has been this way for ages. They were the Bush administration's biggest supporter in the lead up to the Iraq War. They've been anti trans for years, they were all in on opposition to Bernie.

I guess you just hire one Paul Krugman for some opinion pieces and people assume you're not a right wing mouth piece

Activity Pub is much more flexible, the tradeoff being that it's more complex. ActivityPub is basically a flexible CRUD API specifically designed for social networking, with support for federation.

You could fulfill the purpose of RSS with ActivityPub. But, it doesn't supercede RSS/atom, because the simplicity is valuable for the cases those protocols handle.

Have you heard the good news about supply-side Jesus? Even though this exact rule explicitly benefitted massive companies in California for decades, the fact that it also benefits labor even a little means the capitalist class will react very badly.

Not precisely open world but has the same feeling of exploration, discovery and unlocking, Supraland. Harder puzzles, unlock things that make combat easier. Combat is pretty similar to botw.

This is another sign of what's already going on. It's getting into backlash territory.

Reading that, any winner of the affected awards, however deserving, should decline their award. This year's Hugos are clearly illegitimate.

This is a misunderstanding of the UN's primary purpose. The UN is a diplomatic organization meant to enable a baseline minimum amount of diplomatic interaction. It's primary raison d'etre is preventing a world war / nuclear war. If military might was not respected, then nations would leave the negotiating table and large wars would be harder to avoid. The veto was instrumental in establishing the UN in the first place.

In the mid aughts every time Google updated their ranking, and results shuffled it was called the "Google dance". We sorely need a major Google dance.

It's so rare to find a situation where someone's declared opinion is actually wrong on merit.

Yeah wow. What a horrible person. She has no care for the children's well-being as evidenced by the conclusion where she attributes the child doing well to "heroing on".

That's not how it works, what you are talking about is often called freeze peach.

Until Twitter can fine you or lock you up for saying the wrong thing or exercise prior restraint over all your expression, it's not a free speech issue.

I worked for a self-proclaimed data-driven company. They didn't understand how to use data and just used it to justify arbitrary decisions. They hated their employees so much, it was wild. They taught their people managers to use data to gaslight employees by telling them they were happy (most of us weren't). If you don't feel your employer appreciates you, do what you can to leave.
