Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. #goodtrouble

A lot of outlets have been telling the story of Tony Bennett marching with MLK. But have you ever heard the story about how “wokeness,” DEI, Jesus, an actual anti-racist, 2 church choirs & 1 of the greatest dance moves of all time got Tony Bennett into show biz? A thread

I wish more developers understood the constant stream of malware that is posted to npm, PyPI, and all package managers... Here's just a taste of some crazy malware Socket identified in the past couple weeks... All malware descriptions were FULLY WRITTEN by Socket AI.

"Recent studies from Xie et al. find that, at one year, COVID-19 patients are at higher risk for cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Our results suggest a non-trivial subset of patients experience post COVID-19 condition at 120+ days."

And long Covid is a serious risk that we can’t dismiss or take lightly. A new meta-analysis reported that HALF of people infected with Covid have symptoms at least four months later. bit.ly/36DzY23 16/
For the first time in history, the world’s top architecture prize (Pritzker) has gone to a black winner - Diébédo Francis Kéré of Burkina Faso. His buildings are a true testament to the beauty of working for and with local communities, local materials, and homegrown uniqueness.
