A good analysis of the Supreme Court ruling today by Jess O'Thomson.

UK Supreme Court Rules That Trans Women Aren’t Women under the Equality Act 2010
https://www.wearequeeraf.com/uk-supreme-court-rules-that-trans-women-arent-women-under-the-equality-act-2010/
"By rooting misogyny in women’s ‘shared biology’, rather than our shared oppression under patriarchy, the Supreme Court relies on incredibly conservative ideas about gender as a naturalised phenomenon. In reality, trans women experience misogynistic discrimination as much as, if not more than, many other women"

Yes, I'm an anarcho-syndicalist, bisexual, gender-fluid, autistic, radical leftist!
I won’t apologize for being an anarchist or for being autistic. Autism rules, and so does anarchism!

Bluesky feed builder Graze raises $1M, rolls out ads https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/16/bluesky-feed-builder-graze-raises-1m-rolls-out-ads/
New: following layoffs, employees at Wordpress parent company Automattic discovered leak-catching watermarks in images. The watermarks in Automattic's P2 instance are nearly invisible, rendered as a pattern overlaid on the site’s white page backgrounds.
https://www.404media.co/automattic-wordpress-p2-watermark-leakers/
So the solution to AI scams is... more AI. We have all seen the increase in AI generated scams. The solution to that is more AI? Maybe the reason more ads are being blocked is that there is actually just a lot more scams due to AI making it easier to make?
I still believe that the move from contextual ads to surveillance based ads was and is a massive mistake and the way to fix that is to ban surveillance based ads.
Contextual ads were also a lot more manual, most of the time, meaning scams were harder. Time to learn from mistakes and get rid of surveillance based ads?

If you hear about a job where it helps to have over 200 publications in academic and popular #archaeology, plus 20 years' experience as a journal editor, plus a solid record as a popular teacher, then please give me a nudge!
Spätestens in den Wechseljahren ist das mit dem ‚biologisch weiblich‘ oder ‚biologisch männlich‘ hinfällig. Der Körper produziert halt deutlich weniger von allem und dadurch ändert sich einiges.
Bevor man gegen trans und Co wettert sollte man seine eigene Biologie mit einberechnen. Hetzt man gegen trans hetzt man faktisch auch gegen Senioren und sich selbst.
as i hinted in the press, i am working on a permanent, decentralized replacement to the CVE system using linked data. to that end, it would be helpful to know what people *want* out of their vulnerability data.
With Android releasing one of my haptics designs recently, I can finally talk more about how powerful "responsive haptics" can be as a #UX design material. I've written up how it works on my blog: https://jenson.org/haptics

"We believe the Trump administration violated the First Amendment by attempting to shut down our operations simply because they disagreed with our independent journalism.

For real, the weekly borg backup thing I do saved my uncommitted work. If you use linux, I highly recommend you give some thought into Pika Backup (nice gui for borg), as it's awesome and saved me multiple times already

AI isn’t always the cheaper option.
In my interview with lexicographer and Wordnik founder Erin McKean (
@emckeanErin McKean), we talked about what AI means for dictionaries, and she pointed out that “Lexicographers are way cheaper than AI engineers. By an order of magnitude.”
Sure, LLMs can sometimes speed things up. But tuning, deploying, and maintaining those models isn’t always more efficient than hiring humans.
