I send my love to all those in the US who have sought to bring into being a kinder and more compassionate nation, which uses its strength wisely and in the service of peace. Things are looking dark. Please hang on. Do what you can to protect one another. Outside of the US we feel your pain.

Hey, any of my former UNR students who are following me, answer your phone tonight! It could be someone trying to cure your ballot.

(And hello. I think of you often and hope you're all doing well. 💙)

In Nevada, the GOP is succeeding in throwing out the votes of thousands of young people. If you're in Clark or Washoe county, answer your phone tonight. It may be election officials, calling to cure the defect in your mailed-in ballot.

TechAltar — How Mozilla lost the Internet (& what's next)

Mozilla has been on a decline for over a decade. Firefox marketshare dropped from 32% to just 3% and antitrust regulations mean Google might stop paying them for search engine placement. So now they are turning to advertising.

Kind of torn on this one.

The privacy conscious person in me is all "urgh". But as a dev I understand the importance of this kind of data - and how opt-in can render that data as misleading.

Innovation amnesia: Technology as a substitute for politics

This paper outlines a theory of amnesia in the face of innovation: when apparent technological innovations occasion the disregard of preexisting cultural, legal, and infrastructural norms.
