What is this new devilry?
The Occam/Chekhov/Chesterton Razor/Gun/Fence matrix. Summer’s off to a productive start.
Two upcoming changes in the #FEP process:
- Withdrawing stale proposals. If a proposal remains inactive for 2 years, its status is changed to WITHDRAWN. Previously, the period was 1 year after submission, and facilitators were supposed to contact authors before withdrawing (that didn't work well).
- Implementation tracking. If a proposal has type: implementation attribute, we will automatically count list items in the "Implementations" section and display that number somewhere (probably in README). If your proposal is implementable, I recommend adding type: implementation attribute to it. Also, don't forget to mention implementations if they exist - this information is very important.
In the last five years, we've gone from "employees will never have to go into an office" to "employees need to be in the office because creative and innovative work can only be done face-to-face between humans" to "lol we don't need humans"

zizmor v1.10.0 is released!
this is a *huge* new release in terms of features, bugfixes, and enhancements. just to highlight a few:
* zizmor's new experimental fix mode is now available! users can use `--fix=[MODE]` to control it; see the docs for more: https://docs.zizmor.sh/usage/#auto-fixing-results
* the new anonymous-definition audit flags unnamed workflows and jobs for the pedantic persona: https://docs.zizmor.sh/audits/#anonymous-definition
* zizmor's location/fixture core has been rewritten to support "subfeatures," meaning that many audits now produce much nicer/more precise finding renders that are easier to read
read the full release notes here: https://docs.zizmor.sh/release-notes/#1100
Today is the 10th anniversary of the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges US Supreme Court case that legalized same-sex marriage here in the United States.
I know this is a difficult time for the LGBTQIA community to be celebrating, let us all allies show that we support them and stand by them today, and every day. ✊

A key part of the New York City mayoral races was Ranked Choice Voting.
I'm not seeing many news articles mention this yet (correct me if I'm wrong though!).
Ranked choice let's us vote first for who we actually want.... and then put in backup votes for "good enough" candidates and allows us to compromise and find common ground.
It destroys the concepts of "lesser of two evils" and "throwing away your vote".
I hope we see Ranked Choice voting everywhere.

Benioff says "50% of work now done by AI", and most media lap it up instead of realising what it means: that he understands neither "work" nor "AI" nor "%".

Do you know Lena Raine, she did the soundtrack of Celeste and some stuff for Minecraft and also developed a surreal visual novel about BBSes called ESC that nobody except me seems to make a big deal about but was a really big deal to me. Anyway! NTS is streaming a prerecorded DJ set by her and it is in half an hour (1 PM Pacific Standard Time) (ok I guess that's actually 27 minutes)

the story of modern US politics is the story of a society that has made itself so afraid of the Reign of Terror that it wants to undo its own revolution and bring the king back just in case
If you want to get "The Secret Rules of the Terminal" (or any other zine!) and you're in a country with a weaker currency than the US (India, Brazil, etc), there's a discount to make the zines more affordable. You can see it in action here:
https://wizardzines.com/zines/terminal/
If you're in a country this applies to, you should see something like this:
"When the author of a book states that all sales of those books will contribute to an anti-trans fund, the only way we can choose not to participate is by not selling the books any longer. "
- #SanFrancisco bookstore #Booksmith on why they've stopped selling titles by #transphobic author #JKRowling.
some of this came out of interesting discussions i've had around "llms as open source contributors." like i am probably a bit more polite and deferential to an OSS contributor than i am to an LLM! but that doesn't mean im rude to an LLM either. just the vibe of the convos is differnet.
lots of good stuff in the replies here, i was curious what people think! to be clear i don't think that *de* humanizing things is good, actively, it's more about trying to navigate engagement in a way that is accurate and feels correct

Would you describe yourself as a "Digital Public Good"
this is why i think the pet point is a good one: i do love and respect pets, and wouldn't want to treat them poorly, because pets, while not human, do deserve respect. i probably put non-human "life" on more equal footing in my head. much to think about
