So we JUST finished this panel on meaningful change and measurement for engineering organizations and you can already watch it, I am in awe of these thoughtful colleagues and grateful to have had the chance to share space with Liz and Lizzie and Jennifer! What a cool time.
Discuss how change theory can be used to drive cyclical interventions that build healthier cultures in software teams. Learn both theory and frameworks for i...

@matthew we had a chat before we opened our cafe about possibly being a Wonderstate cafe and my wife could operate a commercial bakery to provide all the products to their cafes but it wasn't a good fit at the time
My wife's scones, cookies, and cupcakes blow away the stuff sold in coffee shops. She has some very refined recipes.
I'll try to message you soon using DeltaChat to talk more. I've been following your posts on it. Haven't tried it out since then, though, and would like to.
@matthew It's much improved, but it's always disheartening to see the threads where people continue to make false assumptions about how it works or what is even possible in this ecosystem. A few of the remaining privacy checkboxes that concern people are going to be taken care of soon, and then they'll have to invent new reasons why it's not secure enough
Meanwhile they'll keep telling people they should use Signal which only makes sense if you can actually access Signal in your country. "The best" tool being designed in a way that makes it impossible to use by people who need it most is pretty goddamn stupid
Microsoft could potentially be about to give a bunch of people on Windows 10 a free additional year of support, if certain crazy requirements are met, this is crazy what the requirements are. windowslatest.com/2025/06/24/m…
Windows 10 support is NOT ending on October 14, 2025, if you’re ready to link your Microsoft account and sync Settings to the cloud. Adding a Microsoft account to Windows 10 will extend support until October 13, 2026.
Yet more of the microsoft account ridiculousness. I think it's nasty that they're locking their updates behind either an account or a cost. Either give us your data or have fun getting viruses basically. Eew
@Kaliah I mean every other OS besides Linux does this and has forever, hell Samsung requires both a Samsung and Google account now to keep anything working right. Windows will at least let you choose to back up to whatever storage you want, cloud or local/network.
@fireborn @dhamlinmusic This, and, at least in the apple ecosystem, it's technically possible to set up your device without an apple account, for all the good it'd do. And I don't believe apple's software updates are locked behind an apple ID sign-in, are they? That's my whole issue with Microsoft's thing right now. Security shouldn't be locked behind any conditions or obligations like this to hand over data.
Hey folks - for health reasons (mine, not hers!) I may need to soon re-home my amazing cat, Smalltalk! If you live in the SF Bay Area and might be interested, please ping me! She's truly a wonderful sweet creature! (She'd do best as an only pet.)
(Update 6/27: I’ve found a couple wonderful humans and am exploring options w them. Thank you all for your help!)
so, today I found out that it's confirmed. I've got until november to find work. The accessibility contract that the government had is no longer going to be renewed. The best part is, they're going to buy the accessibility tool and do all the work in house. But don't worry, people who have had no training in accessibility, who no nothing about html or wcag should be able to do the work just fine and it'll save a lot of money in the porcess! So, if anyone knows anyone that's hiring, please feel free to send them my way! My linkedin is: linkedin.com/in/krishnajariwal…

"“We’re not seeing that literacy that we would like to see when we compare ourselves to our global peers, and there’s some reluctance around trusting AI and really embedding it in how we perform our day-to-day work and how we work,” said Terril."
As countries around the world race to leverage artificial intelligence (AI), a recent study found that Canada is falling behind, although it’s not due to a lack of innovation, but growing uncertainty and a gap in public understanding, one expert says…
Ooof, that's really poor reporting from CTV, blithely accepting the survey's definition of "AI literacy" to include "embracing the use of AI in their daily working lives".
Literacy on "AI" should be defined by understanding what the technologies actually are (large language models, generative image models, etc), how they are dependent on their training data, their limitations in how they can generate plausible but inaccurate information, and their social & environmental impacts.
Microsoft makes Windows 10's extended security updates free for an extra year for users who sync PC settings via a Microsoft Account and the Windows Backup app (Zac Bowden/Windows Central)
Windows 10 users will have the option to continue receiving security updates for free beyond October 2025, so long as they sync their PC settings data with the cloud via a Microsoft Account.
As Fozzie stood at the top step, he felt two tiny, webbed hands shove him from behind. He found himself cartwheeling through empty space, landing squarely on his back with a loud crack. As his vision dimmed, he heard a small, throaty voice from above. "Wokka wokka, motherfucker."
I had a great conversation with @baratunde on Life with Machines about the millions of data workers worldwide who produce the data that fuels AI. We dug into the scale of this labor, its deeply human costs, and the possibilities for something better.
AI may look like magic, but behind the scenes, it’s propped up by a vast human labor force. In this season finale of Life With Machines, Baratunde sits down ...
You’ve probably met Torx, the star-shaped screw that has become common in our phones, consoles, and cars. But have you met Torx Plus? It's the high-tech upgrade nobody told you about: straighter walls, zero cam-out, and way more torque transfer. Sounds great, until you try to open your gadget and realize your trusty T5 doesn’t fit anymore.
Trust me, if it happened in Ontario, it happened here in Québec, and across Canada! Corporate lobbyists and apologists for corporate landlords and investors are trying to say they're not to blame for the housing crisis.
If you're a landlord renting out a property for 3x-5x what it would've rented for ~5 years ago, you're the problem, too.
And you should be ashamed of yourself.
Your tenant shouldn't pay all your bills w/ the rent they pay...
China installs more solar in 1 month than the total energy the US uses
China installed its highest solar power capacity for a single month in May.
back-of-the-envelope calculations, 71 GW is more power than the entire US uses (on average). This is why our electricity is, on average, 2.5-3 times more expensive. This will lead to advantages in AI, production, etc. Cheap energy = cheap everything else.
China set a global record by installing 93 GW of solar capacity in May, surpassing any other country's full-year total, though growth is expected to slow due to new regulatory changes.

@ZBennoui Pretty sure he just shootts them outu as he gets them. I've tried interacting to him (After using picture smart) and I get criketts. LOL I still do it, though, just in case he's the time to sit down and red through them becausse some are humorous on purpose. LOL
American public approval used to surge after something like this to show either some real or fake patriotic support, then ebb when reality (and US deaths) roll in.
That Trump has this level of disapproval now is a bad sign for him and a great one for sanity, because regardless of how you feel about the countries involved, he possesses no sanity or demonstrated ability to handle a complex situation.
Are you surprised Trump moved so quickly to try to force a ceasefire? Read this striking new survey data, and you won’t be. Americans don’t trust him to wage a long war.
