I am taking down the paywall for this one, as I believe it remains relevant as a reflection on the limits of the authoritarian assault – and the need to push back against the idea that America is inevitably and irresistibly marching towards a Trump dictatorship.
This week’s piece:
steady.page/en/democracyameric…
The Limits of Violent Authoritarianism
Trump’s authoritarian desires are boundless. But the past year proves that his ability to impose them on America is not.Steady
The idea that protests and public opinion are meaningless in the face of the Trumpist assault, that authoritarian regimes are impervious to public pressure, is still widespread.
But it is wrong. And it perpetuates the regime's assertion of inevitability.
traditional mathematical proofs can be hard to reason about. i propose a new method of proof: proof by compiler optimisation.
consider this proof that n * 1 = n and n ^ 0 = 1 for all reasonable values of n.

15 Signs Linux Is Not For You
If you recognized yourself in a few of these points, that doesn’t mean Linux isn’t for you. In fact, you can count it as an invitation. It just means you’ve spent a long time in an ecosystem that treats you more like a product than a participant.Roland Taylor (It's FOSS)

Unboxed my #Plushtodon Mastodon plushies this morning. Their larger sibling is at home as it shipped last week. These two had to hop the pond and be signed for at the post office this morning.
My review: 15/10 ⭐️
They are so soft, squishy and best of all no odd smell. Plushies sometimes smell and need to be aired out. Wherever/however these are manufactured, they are scent free which added the extra 5 ⭐️
Not pictured are two awesome sticker sheets from #Mastodon #MastodonMerch
