We need to talk about the cult of "staying current."

I often see teams pushing for major framework or library upgrades without being able to name a single friction point, security risk, or performance bottleneck they are actually solving. When asked for the "Why," the answer is usually a shrug: "It’s the latest version."

The ritual is done. We didn't even get arrested. How boring it's to spell curses nowadays

#COP28 has invented a new word. One more to confuse and dilute: „Actionism“. Note the similarity but difference to Activism.

„
Actionists are people - just like you - who are rising to meet the climate change challenge.

They are the change-makers, needle-movers, and momentum-builders providing the hope, optimism, and ingenuity needed to solve humanity’s most urgent and ambitious challenge.“

#COP28 is being held next week a) in the UAE and b) is being chaired by the CEO of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company.

That’s a) one of the largest producers of fossil fuels in the world and b) the guy who is overseeing plans announced earlier this year by ADNOC to massively *increase* its production of oil and gas by 2030.

This is beyond parody. No one is coming to save us.

Slick website though!

You too can join the world of #actionism.
