Is it any wonder that we have a problem with #racism in Ireland when our Government engages in 'State sanctioned racism'...
RT @TadhgHickey: And so the Irish government put on record that they perceive a qualitative difference between a white person fleeing war versus a person of colour. This is state sanctioned racism and a shameful day in our history.

I find I'm having to turn to Twitter to find resources / people in the field of #InteractiveMethodProving (#ITP). Are there dedicated spaces / people in the Fediverse who are students / experts in the field and might be able to give pointers to a youngster who just graduated with a #ComputerScience degree? Any leads / pointers appreciated. Thank you!
@c0dec0dec0de @evacide Or a site to review all the things that make you rage, and provide polls for visitors to confirm it's really something to rage about.

There's this technique conservative commentators use to boost their reach by saying stuff that's just obviously wrong or super racist, with the intent of people screenshotting/linking their content to dunk on it, inadvertently giving them free marketing. I've always wondered if there was a way to abuse this mechanic without being an awful person, and I think I found it. You just make casual comments about how Elon Musk isn't a actually a genius, then all the Elon simps come and boost your content for free.
@evacide No, but it's cool. What should I be rageviewing, exactly?
@VeryBadLlama The French anthem has been a shame for many in France for at least a century.
Jaurès described it as "atrocious" in 1903. My own grandma never failed to add a rhyme at then end: "bande de cons" (lit. "bunch of twats").
A collective was put together in 1992 to find alternative lyrics.
Conservatives have made it into such a sensitive issue that it's difficult even to raise the subject.
@avdi :( Not sure why Nitter is not working, second time it happens to me. Here it is on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CmeYChVhjhR/?hl=en

@ramzimo68 @privacyguides Yeah, saw that today. Our company is in the process of migrating away from LastPass. Thank you.
I'm starting to believe the rumors that Tesla and SpaceX have management teams whose job it is to basically manage him and find creative ways to avoid implementing his stupid ideas. There is simply no way this guy was ever a competent CEO.
