@yogthos@mastodon.social @clacke The US government has almost no say on the discourse of news channels. Also, local tv news is not indicative of mainstream media in the US. Sanders was not sidelined, he came in 2nd place, twice, and his ideas have become mainstream in the US with Millennials.

Tech press, repeat after me:

$1bn+ valuation does not make a company a unicorn anymore. If it did, then we would have to accept that unicorns are as populous as horses now.

$1bn+ in annual revenue and profitability make a startup a unicorn now.

$1.99/month CPanel shared hosting providers are still the best cheap managed PostgreSQL option for small serverless projects.

Why is making noun plural in svenska so fucking complicated

I am looking for a registered investment advisor (RIA) who works with Americans abroad on financial / retirement planning.

Does anyone have a recommendation?

Bonus points if they happen to be familiar with Sverige 🇸🇪.

@da@mastodon.technology I'm guessing they are part of the 10% of the chips that are manufactured in Europe. Demand is greater than supply apparently.

I hate feeling ready for the weekend. I much prefer looking forward to work.

I don’t like most comic book media because the stories rely on solving problems with violence. That’s a terrible message to reinforce in society. Also, lazy and trite.

Where is the Marvel diplomat? The organizer? The legislator? The whistleblower?

The pandemic has everyone wanting to be play reverse “Big Brother” where we are begging to be voted out of the house.

I rarely get to say Facebook is right about something, so it’s a delight to say it:

Facebook is right to not give in to Murdoch & Australia’s pay-to-link break-the-Internet scheme.
