It's astounding how bad the web is without an ad blocker

This tax on using the web, which funds most of it, pays most of the highest paid programmers ($750k/yr+), etc., doesn't impact programmers, who almost all use ad blockers

The whole situation reminds me of the lottery tax

All their conferences:

@PunishedMinerva Her words in the diary are those of a naive child who has no idea how awful things are about to get and by holding her up as an example of forgiveness and hope for humanity we complete the nazi work of silencing her

the desire to bowdlerize anne frank is frankly part of a long tradition of holocaust education in the west, where we solemnly intone 'never again' but never reflect on why people did nothing and collaborated other than 'they were evil' or the history of antisemitism in the west

today i explained to my girlfriend that i think the difference between writing programming languages and writing operating systems is that PL is like the Wizard class in D&D, and OS is more like being a Warlock
