Computer science pioneer and United States Navy rear admiral Grace Hopper was born #OTD in 1906.

As far as I’m aware, she is the only person who has both a supercomputer and a US Navy destroyer named after her.

House passed it. Republicans blocking it in Senate and Manchin, Sinema stopping Dems from ending filibuster to pass anything.

9 December 1915 | A Polish Jew, Szymon (Simon) Frydman, was born in Radom.

In Auschwitz from 24 October 1941.

@derickflorian I think there is a difference between a retired cop who goes into something like ministry (as a former colleague did) where there is no connection to enforcement actions, and something like this situation where the cop is transferring survalence know how to the private market.

Hey, there's even going to be a #LinuxOnMobile stand at next @fosdem ! Not sure how much time I'll spend there, but expect to see folks from @mobian @postmarketOS @ubports & more :)

@derickflorian @whalecoiner @lizupton Thing is, there's a big difference between (a) hiring a former surveillance cop and (b) hiring a former surveillance cop and making an excited post about how your new hire was a surveillance cop and isn't that cool

Okay, I really wanted this to die, but @lizupton - comms officer of Raspberry Pi Ltd - is now claiming that the entire #raspberrypi social media drama was actually because her company posted a picture of pigs-in-blankets, and not because they hired an ex-surveillance cop and then acted like dickheads when asked about it. 😱

First to make a few things clear:
I am autistic myself.
And I have a fairly good understanding of what those kids might go through.

What if they actually _like_ analyzing data and all that? Computers be damned, they're just tools, doesn't mean humans can't have a shot at it too.
Sometimes I am hyperfocused myself, then I make ridiculous lists of lists and whatnot. Waste of time? Oh, _absolutely_, you bet! But was it satisfying to me? Oh _yeah_!

They'll have plenty of time to learn how to socialize, but does that mean you need to put them in a fascist regime that only forces them to socialize and never have _fun_?

After one evening of socializing, I'll be _happy_ to have 3 weeks of no human contact. I don't hate humans, it is just that social contact is _utterly exhausting_.

Maybe try to understand _that_.

Guys,

Y'all should probably make a statement about yesterday's kerfuffle.

It's not just the ACAB crowd that are ticked, a lot of people who otherwise like you are pretty mad about how the whole thing was handled.

If you don't believe me, my poll results surprised even me:

Re Kyrsten Sinema: Good riddance. Now I only wish she wasn't on the team. In any case, she'll never be family. There's a difference.
