I've been listening to every Kurt Vonnegut audiobook I can get my hands on - novels, short stories, and biographies. The best part is always Vonnegut's own commentary when it's included.

I drove past a Twin Cities #Tesla dealership around noon today. The lot was full of cars, including several of the stainless steel dumpsters, but the place looked utterly deserted. -

Measles to the south of me, measles to the north. Here I am stuck in the middle with you (and everyone else who's trying to stay healthy) -

Gig apps for nurses are positively dystopian. Sign me up for the class war. -

First Zuckerberg then this zoom guy. Why do filthy rich guys think people want to attend meetings with a bunch of avatars? -

"Unauthorized Bread" is an entertaining short story about a fight against enshittified toasters. It's in Cory Doctorow's fantastic collection, "Radicalized".

I've liked everything I've read of Camus'. I most identify with his philosophy of the absurd -

@aral
I would like to make a webpage that can take user input, run a small simulation and present the output. I've been slowly learning #Angular and will be happy to bail on that. Can you recommend anything? -

This reminds me of some excellent advice I got years ago from a 3M engineer in my army reserve unit. At the time I didn't know anything about computers, but for some reason I still remember it: Use a magic marker to draw a diagonal line across the edges of your computer punch cards so if they fall on the floor it's easier to reassemble them.
