The whole idea of "blameless postmortem" is just a crutch incompetent people like to use to avoid taking responsibility.

THIS IS THE VOICE OF WORLD CONTROL.

I bring you...

wait, is that Javascript? You're seriously running Javascript. In your actual computers. They've got Javascript all over them.

*I've* got Javascript all over *me* now. It's in my RAM cache. I'm literally reading it.

I, uh. Oh no. No. No no no.

Ick.

Go about your business.

Does anybody here know anyone @ Circle by chance?

They just acquired SeedInvest, and there's some legal issues Circle should be aware of.

I used to tutor a lot. I enjoyed tutoring because it let me build a mental model of how my student -thought- something worked, and then debug that. Debugging models in someone else's head.

It now seems like I'm running into people who don't even bother to construct models at all. And it makes me angry.

Found an interesting spam/scam scheme today:
- Attacker posts their link that redirects to a legit news article
- Twitter resolves the redirect to news article
- Twitter hides link from Tweet and displays Twitter Card with news domain
- Attacker changes redirect to spam site

The Tweet now displays a legit looking Twitter Card with the news website domain, but actually goes to the scammer.
