If you make websites for a living, know that you are *extremely likely* to be wealthier than the people on whose devices your code will run. This matters to *how* that code runs.

Let's say you're a webdev in the US, building for the US market exclusively. There's huge variability in cost of living across geos, but even so, Indeed shows a an average base salary for a webdev of ~$80K/yr:

Taking on monopolies is hard. To add to recent books we have these academic papers. The New Deal had effective response. What will be this century's?

Just found out that you can add emojis to your @zotero library. Please take this away from me, I am #procrastinating with this the whole morning. <3 @phdlife #academicChatter

After a month of intensive lecturing on the history of environmental economics, I've concluded that history of economics as a field is a bit like the price of carbon:

everyone loosely agree that its value should be $300 the ton, but the market price has been stuck at $8 for 20 years

1/5 I have recently noticed a shift by the FTC to a more traditional progressive approach to enforcement and away from the original NeoBrandesian (NB) positions of the Biden administration. Given the media attention paid to the left-leaning progressive stance of Biden administration antitrust enforcement, these changes are noteworthy. Several recent events indicate this centrist shift.

Lol. I tried posting a tweet to tell people about my latest Techdirt story (about Mastodon) and I got this error message (and it's the only tweet I've tried today).

Mozilla is working on bringing Firefox 🦊 to iOS 🥂

Real Firefox with Gecko 🦎!

Apple's over a decade long ban on competitive third party browsers has almost certainly cost Firefox significant market share and 100s of millions in lost revenue.

Pantheon Desktop (from the @elementary team) is a master piece on #NixOS 🤌🧑‍🍳

If I'm switching distros, I might as well go all in. I'm switching to Pantheon too 😲 Excellent work @danirabbit 💖️

The trackpad gestures are sublime. The hardware/peripheral configuration is on point. I can tweak the keyboard shortcuts to suit my muscle memory. Outstanding job by the #Nix contributors who pulled all this together ⭐️
