In a 2020 letter to management, Max Eliaser, an #Amazon software engineer, said #Ring is “simply not compatible with a free society”.
He's right.

“However they may be as economic theories, **#Fascism and #Nazism are psychologically far sounder than any hedonistic conception of life**. The same is probably true of **Stalin**'s militarised version of #Socialism. **All three of the great #dictators have enhanced their power by imposing intolerable burdens on their peoples.** Whereas Socialism, and even #capitalism in a more grudging way, have said to people _‘I offer you a good time,’_ **Hitler** has said to them _‘I offer you struggle, danger and death,’_ and as a result a whole nation flings itself at his feet. Perhaps later on they will get sick of it and change their minds, as at the end of the last #war.”
George #Orwell, writing about #Hitler, in March 1940.

JavaScript está en todas partes. Las apps web son legibles y editables, por definición. Muchos programadores buenos (y todos los malos) usan JS, así que hay en internet un quintal de proyectos, experimentos y divertimentos con/de/contra/para JS. ¿Cuáles son las aplicaciones más perversas, los casos de uso más nicho, y las implementaciones más extravagantes de JS? Y, ¿qué se puede aprender de los trastornos y las obsesiones ajenas?

**11.** On profile pages, sometimes clicking the “collections” pseudo-tab “too early” does not work (it's not a real link, stuff gets build client-side, and there's a delay).

_Clinical Psychological #Science_, [a week ago](https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/2167702621994549):

I'd be curious to know what #JonathanHaidt thinks about that study.
