Don't just teach your students to read.
• Teach them to question what they read, what they study.
• Teach them to doubt.
• Teach them to think.
• Teach them to make mistakes and learn from them.
• Teach them how to understand something.
• Teach them how to teach others.

I had not heard this expression until this past week:

"A language is a dialect with an army."

@design_RG Definitely, once the barriers against extremist, or just bad, comments are removed, they stick out.

But as @Full_marx mentioned, I agree this is inevitable. Suppressing opinions and ideas won't make them go away.

Even as individuals we have to integrate the darker sides of ourselves or it inevitably leads to worse consequences. If as a society the only way these opinions are managed is via oppression, disaster is bound to happen.

I like the idea of Dissenter (the browser extension) - having a comment section for every page which doesn't depend on the owner of the page and isn't moderated either. Unfortunately the idea was developed by people supporting extremists and got really bad press.

Today is the 33rd birthday of #aaronswartz, he fought to free #knowledge and killed by flawed unjust system that valued money over humanity. Let's remember him, and continue the battle he has started #knowledgefreedom #creativecommons

I missed that there was a vuln in file. There was.

@freemo I was also thinking about how it's going to impact networks which implement login portals based on DNS hijacks

@freemo I'm giving it a try, but it breaks one other app I use which allows blocking HTTP(S) requests based on destination hostname, because it skips the usual DNS lookup on the machine...

How many of you are using DNS over HTTPS (DoH)?

I'm amazed by the content on this person's YouTube channel.

@kensanata I was just thinking about what to do with the kids tomorrow, that's it: making bread

The demons stared at the gurgling bundle swaddled in a sacrificial robe, among the standard offerings of goats and wine.

"What are we supposed to do with it?"

"Eat it?" one guessed.

"It's a baby!"

"Accept it as payment?"

"That's awful! We have standards!"

"Can't return it, it'll be sent back, or worse," grunted the oldest, who understood humans better, "Guess we're parents now."

"Well... We've been worse for less," the first accepted.
