wenn konservative sagen, klimaschutz sei mittlerweile eine religion geworden, heißt das, dass sie klimaschützer*innen viele feiertage, extra unterricht in schulen, sitze im rundfunkrat und hilfe bei der steuereintreibung gönnen?

Mir persönlich tun all diese mutigen nicht-jüdischen Politiker leid, denen der perfide Antisemitismus von ausschließlich politischen Gegnern so zu schaffen macht.

Right now I'm mentally fine, but I just read something that reminded me of my struggles with depression, which reminded me of this tweetstorm, which I figure is worth sharing again, so that people understand depression just a little bit better.
01/ Doing a half-@threadapalooza, 50 tweets about depression. Trigger warnings. I have no idea where this is going to go, but at the very least: depression, self-harm, abuse, trauma, suicide.

„I will miss #Merkel for her decency (…) — and, above all, for her knack at keeping people who might otherwise go to war at the same table. (…) I won’t miss Merkel for her incrementalism when facing the big issues of the next generation.“ Gute Würdigung: bloomberg.com/graphics/2021-…

Die Vorstellung, dass eine Elite aus Juden, Frauen, Klimawissenschaftlerinnen & Virologen die Welt regieren, ist fester Bestandteil der neurechten Ideologie. Das zu benennen ist keine Relativierung des Holocaust, sondern eine wichtige Lektion in Intersektionalität. @C_Emcke

Again, a reminder. Anonymous feedback is an abuse vector. As a conference organizer, you need to filter this. Your speakers don’t deserve it.
I love getting feedback from my conference talks. They always help me improve as a speaker. "Never listen to a blonde for devops advice."

As per tradition, the last question of my final exam asked students to write a funny haiku about distributed systems for 1 point of extra credit. Last year, someone submitted imgur.com/HNungMp -- so this year I said memes are also acceptable. Thread of my favorites! ⬇️

Other possible lessons are similarly mercurial: - the old is still new to many - tech generations are measured in 2-year increments, so everyone needs an entry point - we're (still) starved for fundamentals teachers - the platform isn't as hard as fw marketers want it to be

Es ist mir unklar, wie man als Partei einen „fundamentalen Eingriff in unsere Freiheitsrechte“ verantworten kann. Noch unklarer ist mir jedoch, wie man Vorsitzende einer Partei bleiben kann, von der man sagt, sie verantworte diesen elementaren Eingriff. #SPD #Staatstrojaner

The fact that @fastly was able to detect, identify, and remediate this clearly complex problem as quickly as they did may be one of the most technically impressive things I’ve seen in years. This is way, way beyond “someone unplugged the wrong server” territory.
this headline and framing are crap, but mad props to the Fastly person saying explicitly “We experienced a global outage due to an undiscovered software bug that surfaced on June 8 when it was triggered by a ***VALID*** customer configuration change” apnews.com/article/software-…

I think it might be a good idea to give this a try, but I’d much prefer to do it in a good old-fashioned on-site workshop, the one with people collaborating non-virtually :)
