Why not do this in Nashville and Knoxville as well?

Memphis was one of the most dangerous cities in America. It’s now becoming a model for how to fight crime when you have a terrible DA.

From the peak:
- Murders down 47%
- Carjackings down 48%
- Robberies down 51%.
- Vehicle theft down 80%.

What changed:

1. State troopers took over interstate patrol, freeing up local officers.

2. Police launched focused initiatives targeting fugitives, violent repeat offenders, and gang members.

3. National Guard, federal agents, and US Marshals came in and made 9,000+ arrests, including 400+ gang members. Plus 629 illegal firearms seized, 150 missing children located.

4. Technology filled the gaps. Police deployed license plate readers citywide, expanded drone use, and opened a downtown command center. A cancer center went from a crime attempt every other week to none.

Overall crime is now down more than 43% compared to the same period last year

Memphis has a long way to go and remains a dangerous city. Its DA is still dismissing 3 out of every 4 felony cases. In fact, the state legislature just passed a bill to audit and potentially remove him.

But the city is showing that a rogue DA doesn't have to be a death sentence for public safety. Flood the streets with law enforcement, target repeat offenders, and make arrests faster than he can dismiss them.

Your branch is 200 commits behind main. What will you do?

Merge or rebase?

How Axios was compromised 🤯

I thought our elections were so secure that it wasn’t possible to cheat like this.

Claude code source code has been leaked via a map file in their npm registry!

🚨 CRITICAL: Active supply chain attack on axios -- one of npm's most depended-on packages.

The latest [email protected] now pulls in [email protected], a package that did not exist before today. This is a live compromise.

This is textbook supply chain installer malware. axios has 100M+ weekly downloads. Every npm install pulling the latest version is potentially compromised right now.

Socket AI analysis confirms this is malware. plain-crypto-js is an obfuscated dropper/loader that:

• Deobfuscates embedded payloads and operational strings at runtime
• Dynamically loads fs, os, and execSync to evade static analysis
• Executes decoded shell commands
• Stages and copies payload files into OS temp and Windows ProgramData directories
• Deletes and renames artifacts post-execution to destroy forensic evidence

If you use axios, pin your version immediately and audit your lockfiles. Do not upgrade.

Instead of deaf people just watching the actual artists perform, CBC puts a sign language interpreter on to perform air guitar & drum solos for them to watch along side of it. Whats going on in Canada? It’s a 24/7 nut house

I think we should end Daylight Saving Time and make standard time the time all year round. I want the sun to come up when I wake up. I don’t need it to stay up until 9:00 at night.

No one tells you when you go into software engineering that writing code isn't the job.

Meetings and docs are the job. Coding is the fun little hobby they let you have between the meetings.

I think this is great but… there needs to be a major effort on the part of airlines to make flying more enjoyable. People wear pajamas on planes because flying is such a horrible experience now. Airlines should provide the incentive to dress better by giving people more for their money.
