$100K/year per worker for H-1B visas is practically a death knell for the program. This will create a significant wave of outsourcing and will hurt local economies dependent on tech workers.
If you paid me to sabotage America’s economy, I couldn’t do a better job than the Trump administration.

I'm feeling FOMO for SFSCON this week and TPAC next week.
One thing about being part of the Fediverse movement is that I have a lot of confidence in friends and colleagues who will be on the ground doing good work.
Thanks for everything you do, ActivityPub allies.

you, smug: "oh you like $thing? how cute! if you're lucky you'll realize $other_thing is better"
no one: "oh you sound like a pleasant person to be around! please tell me about $other_thing"

wish more people realized that smugness makes for poor tech evangelism

@alice thanks for making the Fediverse a better place.

I have an apology to issue. Yesterday, I called out a few large, open-registration instances (mastodon.social, vivaldi.net, and mas.to).
I was ticked off because (once again) a blatant Nazi troll account sent me (and several other folx) swastika photos and hate-speech.
I'm not apologizing for calling out large, open-signup instances. I stand by every word I said. But there's something I *didn't* say, and that's what I believe I owe an apology for.
When you have as many followers as I do, it's easy to start a dogpile—even unintentionally—and because of this, I always try to include a "be kind, don't attack folx" message when I rant about something. Yesterday I forgot to do that, and some mods and admins caught shit for it. It was my responsibility to anticipate my (sometimes overly) enthusiastic followers' reactions and head that off, and I failed to.
If you were one of the people yesterday who sent reports or messages that attacked *any* of the moderation team members of those servers, I would love it if you'd apologize to them. They're all volunteers, just like me, doing their best with what they've got. It's on all of us to make Fedi a safe space for each other.
To any of the wonderful volunteer moderators of Fedi who got nasty messages yesterday—or don't wake up every day feeling appreciated for their work—I'm sorry 🫂 you deserve better. I appreciate you 💞
Update: two of the three above instances' admin teams have personally reached out to me about my original post—and that's amazing! I hope we can work together to make Fedi a safer, more inclusive space for everyone (except Nazis).
