@Carnage4Life Everyone wants to be King Shit until they realize how much shit must be eaten to assume the throne. Then they’re all like “I’m so proud of the work we’ve done but I need some time to focus on my family”.

The concept of teenagers, who are also mutants, who just happen to be ninjas, while ALSO being turtles is not something the 2020s could ever come up with. That’s a big 80s cocaine brain idea

WireGuard has some big updates ready to go on Windows, our first on the platform in nearly 4 years. We've done some nice modernizations and improvements, fixed bugs, added features, updated the toolchain, and more. But our release is currently blocked by @Microsoft. The recent thread on Hacker News encouraged me to write this up, rather than just grumbling to myself privately about it as I have the last two weeks. I logged in to get the WireGuardNT driver signed -- a necessary step for driver authors -- and was greeted by this vague message that the account has been suspended. Looking further into it, it seems like they instituted an identity verification policy, didn't notify me about it, and then I guess they suspended accounts who didn't do the verification. So of course I did the ID card verification immediately, but now an appeal is necessary. The appeals process requires filing a support ticket, but filing a support ticket requires a non-suspended account... Catch-22, eventually resolved by filing one through Azure and getting it rerouted to the right department. That was two weeks ago. Now they've told me there's a 60 day appeal review period. Wish us luck! It's a little crazy, because what if there was some critical ring 0 RCE vuln that was being exploited in the wild and that needed to be patched immediately? (Just hypothetical; there isn't.) In that case, telling users "sorry, you've got to wait 60 days" would be sort of bad. And users of WireGuard for Windows are also Microsoft Windows users, so I can't see how this is good for Microsoft either. I think it must just be a case of bureaucracy gone slightly off the rails. Happens. If any Microsofters are able to make this take not-sixty-days, please do get in touch.

Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme. The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality. This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme. A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.

@moseskagan @harrisonfinberg In the same vein, do you believe that EWarren really wants to tax the rich? 😆 They’re all lying to get into power, to stay in power, to put their cronies into power.

@harrisonfinberg As far as I can tell from reading about it a lot over the years, few of the people running that government actually believe in the ideology... it's all just a smoke screen for the kleptocracy (and the stolen $$ goes to pay for their kids to get out) It's so cynical and gross

Se você trabalha em empresa grande, esse podcast com o ex-VP da Amazon tá elite demais. Quase 3 horas só sobre politicagem corporativa. Se você tá no começo da carreira ainda, isso aqui te coloca uns 10 anos na frente, sem exagero.
Ryan Peterman@ryanlpeterman

I don't think you'll be able to find a conversation like this one on the internet. I interviewed @EthanEvansVP (former Amazon VP) about every possible corporate politics situation I could think of and he told me everything since he's retired. Topics we covered: • Managing people out + promos via reorgs • Orgs trying to steal scope • How to fire managers • What leverage engineers have when getting managed out • Handling politically skilled operators • Examples of political messaging • Handling bad managers and mutiny • Empire building + effective backchanneling • Influence without authority • How to avoid politics if you hate them It was fascinating in a morbid curiosity kind of way. I heard so many things in this conversation which I wish weren't true but are. Hopefully this conversation is helpful for people navigating corporate politics. Where to watch: • YouTube: youtu.be/6WaeGfLnRvc • Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/6GKb77… • Apple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the… • Transcript: developing.dev/p/amazon-vp-re…

Results from my Feb 23 skin therapy: Improvements since treatment: > Brown spots: +71 percentile points (20th → 91st) ✅ > Pores: +25 percentile points ✅ > Spots: +25 percentile points✅ My skin age is 9 years younger than my chronological age (39 vs 48) and hasn't aged in five years since starting this project. Effectively a 9 year age reversal. Measured using VISIA multispectral clinical imaging, the most validated non-invasive skin analysis system available. Feb 23 treatment summary Technologies > Everesse RF > CoolPeel CO2 laser > BBL Each targeting a different skin depth so repair windows overlap without competing. Treatment details Everesse RF (200 pulses, Level 2.5 per cheek), CoolPeel CO2 laser (3.0W, 700 micron spacing), and BBL broadband light. Each targeting a different skin depth. Everesse drives heat into the dermis at 60-70°C, triggering fibroblast activation and collagen production that peaks 6-8 weeks later (about now), tightening the structural scaffolding that makes pores visible. CoolPeel ablates the surface layer of skin, physically removing melanin-loaded cells and forcing fresh keratinocytes to the surface. BBL destroys residual pigment one layer deeper through selective photothermolysis, where melanin absorbs light energy and self-destructs. Porphyrins dropped 13 points, which is expected. The treatments temporarily disrupt the follicular environment that bacteria need to thrive, and that recovers within 8-12 weeks. Goal was to do a triple-modality stack so the repair windows overlap without competing (dermis, epidermis, and chromophores).

@DrunkRepub @ValidScience Come on friend. That just says that the US defense budget is 980b. It doesn’t mean that the US gave 980b to anyone else.

America First bros are all bent outta shape cuz we give Israel around $4 billion every year. Meanwhile we give NATO nearly $1 trillion! Both sums are eligible for scrutiny, but there’s no doubt that Israel has done more to forward our interests abroad. Or that their values more closely match ours.

Bought a Euromillions ticket on the app and went abroad for a week. Got an email telling me I'd won & check the app, can't access it outside UK. Whole week to imagine how much prize was. It was £2.40.

I'm 36. I'm a physician. I take a statin—and ezetimibe—every day. No symptoms. No cardiac history. Just an honest read of the evidence. Here's what I found—and why I stopped waiting for a reason to act.
