My computer doesn’t make .DS_Store files. If yours does, it’s your responsibility to not litter the codebase with them.

Corollary: My computer does make other kinds of files, and you’d never know it.

Same experience. “No feed found.” I chuckled at the irony and closed the tab.

How is this possible? Do they test sending to a few random addresses?

It’s some consumer loyalty scheme for a chain retailer? Depressingly distant from the “bicycle for the mind” I’d dreamed of.

I just keep a custom stylesheet that annotates usernames with various emoji. Most of the time I update it as I read, but occasionally I’ll peruse the hidden comments to note e.g. uncharitable participation and revealed bigotry.

For about five years an Amazon Fresh in Seattle was literally my closest grocery store but I never once set foot in there, simply because it felt icky and dystopian to let Amazon any further into my life. I wonder how many others felt similarly.

I’ve always interpreted that question to mean emotionally. Yes, clearly I’m physically injured, but I still have a positive outlook.

When I do hear people respond in the negative it tends to be an opening up about stress.
