"(...) one reason that people object to these massive data-collection schemes is that they almost always gather more data than even their creators intend. Street View cars, for example, connected to unsecured Wi-Fi networks as they made their rounds between 2008 and 2010 — and when they did, slurped up “snippets of e-mails, photographs, passwords, chat messages, [and] postings on websites and social networks” (...) the case feels freshly relevant in light of the past month’s news about Clearview AI."

It's impossible for a white person to believe in capitalism and not believe in racism. You can't have capitalism without racism.

This is a middle-grades graphic novel, so they can't even hint at smoking...little Johnny Constantine had better have a lollypop at all times or I will be disappointed.

Fanfic: #Hellblazer: Hogwarts https://m.fanfiction.net/s/1980013/1/Hellblazer-Hogwarts
This is silly fun. Synopsis: a multiversally-displaced John #Constantine is coerced into serving as Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts in exchange for Dumbledore finding him a way back home.

@feld That's fair. To me, the main benefit is that without the feature being specified in HTML and the browser, people will implement it in JavaScript, and the resulting implementations will be harmful in various ways, such as falling back to never loading images without JavaScript, rather than falling back to eager loading.

@garbados The one thing about Bernie that stands out is that he actually *does* appear to understand this, and intends to use the bully pulpit of the presidency to empower a non-electoral movement. It's the biggest differentiator, IMO, between him and Warren, who would use the official powers of the presidency to push broadly similar policies, but would do basically nothing when that approach failed.
