What the… Something something free speech… something something… dark side…

[Boyan Yurukov @yurukov]

Yes, @elonmusk has indeed blocked all references to Mastodon, including its official account here. Free speech much?

@bbatsov This article - https://t.co/u2oo0UW0c9 - seems to use base name and stem both for the same thing. But to answer your original question, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of stem used in this context.

[Boyan Tabakov @bladealslayer]

@bbatsov It is, but that’s still the command for the job and since filename seems appropriate for the name with suffix, I guess I have associated base name with the meaning you asked.

[Boyan Tabakov @bladealslayer]

@bbatsov In FAT IIRC it’s just called name and the extension was actually stored as separate value in the directory entry.

[Boyan Tabakov @bladealslayer]

@bbatsov I’ve always used base name for that and file name for the base name + extension. No idea why exactly, but probably because the basename command is the way to get that in a UNIX.

No one can define what safety means to others. But we can work together to build a safer workplace, and our safer space guidelines help us do that. Read more in Balanced. ⚖️ https://t.co/lms9PZ4he7

ENA Express is easily my favorite launch of this re:Invent, and we’ve been eagerly waiting having customers try it out. It is also worth a short thread. 1/

I've seen a lot of people asking "why does everyone think Twitter is doomed?"

As an SRE and sysadmin with 10+ years of industry experience, I wanted to write up a few scenarios that are real threats to the integrity of the bird site over the coming weeks.

[Science girl @sciencegirl]

Look at the wings of this fly

It’s called Goniurellia tridens, each wing has a detailed image of an ant, flashing its wings gives the appearance of ants walking

Most of its predators would want to avoid a confrontation with the stings of ants 1/🧵

It took me less than 25 minutes to set up a fake anonymous Apple ID using a VPN and disposable email, attach a masked debit card to it (with the address being Twitter's HQ), and get a verified account for a prominent figure. Just think what a nation-state or bad actor could do...

[Sumaya @_SumayaKassim]

humanities degrees can lead to analysis paralysis and stem degrees can lead to a reductive solutionist perspective. but I have never heard anyone from humanities question the need for stem to exist. it's a problem that so many consider humanities an indulgence and not a necessity

No, this photo doesn't portray one of the new creatures on HBO's "House of the Dragon," or an outtake from a horror movie. It's an award-winning close-up photo of ... an ant. https://t.co/dsRP63I4CU

Bulgaria 🇧🇬 strongly condemns Russia's attacks against Ukrainian civilians and civilian infrastructure. Assaults on civilians are completely unacceptable and they must stop. #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦
