One of the biggest signals for integrity I use is what someone does when confronted with evidence they're wrong. Do they:

  1. Double down, blame others, try to repair any damage to their image/ego

  1. Admit they were wrong, thank others, try to repair any damage their actions caused

(I'm not perfect but I work on this in myself too)

A great example of 2: https://hachyderm.io/@inthehands/113852891885934971

I wish this blog post had an author name so I could give them a more specific shout-out; I love it. More thinking about emotions in programming, please.

Something @tb won't say but I will: this 100 billion crate download number is even more impressive because crates.io's stability has increased even as the load has increased because of incredible optimization and infrastructure work that @tb , other crates.io team members, and infra team members have done. Thank you to the Rust Foundation for funding this work and keeping this community resource available!!

I'm pleased to announce I'm now a Project Director on the Rust Foundation board! I got to attend My First Board Meeting today; thinking about how/where/in what medium I'd like to share readouts.

and people who voted for trump have shown they wouldn't do the same for me or people more marginalized than me.

no one is coming to save us. we have to take care of each other. i'm going to keep loving my neighbor as myself, which to me means doing mutual aid no matter who you voted for. if the leopards come for your face and i can help, i'll be here.

look, i'm an atheist antifascist anarchist. partly because i have a real hard time squaring "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me" with the contemporary practice of christianity, especially in the united states.

A more productive and realistic framing would be "ensuring Dell is responsibly incorporating volunteer work into their products". Acknowledge your agency, the benefits you're getting. Geez.

And oh look, so end-user focused, keeping them so safe... but this is like a restaurant saying they're protecting their customers from food poisoning from... the free hot dogs the restaurant found on the street and has decided to serve.

IF OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE IS SO BAD AND DANGEROUS, WHY IS IT THERE??? Who made that decision?

Ok so I just listened to the latest episode of the "What's in the SOSS?" podcast and I have issues... https://openssf.org/podcast/2024/10/01/whats-in-the-soss-podcast-16-dells-sarah-evans-and-lisa-bradley-and-ensuring-secure-open-source-software-at-the-enterprise-level/

One of the guests introduces her role at Dell thusly: "protect against open source and making sure that our customers are protected against the open source that we use in our products"

Protect AGAINST open source?? Excuse me? What an adversarial view.

I don't want to spend my money on products with AI. You know what I do want to spend money on? A small smart phone that fits in my hand paired with pants that have pockets guaranteed to fit said phone in them. Please and thank you.

I had been trying to nerd-snipe various people into writing this for a while, but it turns out the person I needed to nerd-snipe was living in the same house as me the whole time 🤣
