@inthehands yeah like there's so much to be angry about, we need to be efficient with it

@inthehands I would pay for an editor to trim out like 90% of stall words ("uh", "you know.." etc)

@inthehands @corbden I used to understand less and be more wrong. Hopefully I'll keep improving in the future too. Yet I don't *hate* my past self for being comparatively worse than I am now.

So it's hard, but I try to give other people that same kind of grace that I grant to my own past self. I can hope in the future they'll look back on their current selves, and be glad they are better.

@danielkennedy74 @wendynather security industry will come up with a whole new name for "service accounts" instead of going to therapy.

Customers next: "It's not an NHI because I just told the service to use *my* account"

@inthehands theorists have studied the curious time dilation afforded by structured procrastination. Mostly they studied it right before their publications were due.

@inthehands I approve of calling out cases of "begging the question", both in reasoning and when mis-used to mean "leading to the question"

@inthehands @_L1vY_ man Popehat has been waiting all his life for this joke opportunity and you just toot it out

@nikitonsky 🐛

@inthehands super agree, but there's still an overlapping solution they would both buy into: criminalization to prison labor pipeline. Proof of concept: already doing it to black Americans

@inthehands @KimPerales I like Alexandra Erin's take on these things. The Trump regime is burning down the rule of law. We don't vote for Democrats because they're firefighters; *We* are the firefighters. The Democrats are the *water*.

@evacide This! Why is almost everyone in the industry normal-washing as if not addressing the issue is protection against it?

@hacks4pancakes could they just publish the database to all hackers immediately, buy everyone 3 years of placebo credit monitoring and save us the trouble of waiting?

@tim you know what the best feature would be for ad tech that viewers would actually appreciate? A button that lets you "take back" or cancel an erroneously perceived interest. All parties involved should benefit.

@heidilifeldman Law, Order, and Justice.

When they say 'Law' they mean 'Authority'.

When they say 'Order' they mean 'Hierarchy'.

When they say 'Justice' they mean 'Punishment'.

@MLE_online is there such a thing as negative dibs? Anti-dibs?

I guess that would be taking something from him. Prolly not worth the effort

@inthehands go reverse sabotage!

@evacide "security, so I can't really talk about it" <-that part also covers "privacy"

@MLE_online unsalted butter is a ploy by big butter to sell more butter

@MLE_online wow I bet it never expected to be found and loved again after it was lost and rusted
