Iowa governor signs bill loosening child labor laws
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa teenagers could work more jobs and for longer hours under a bill signed into law Friday by Gov. Kim Reynolds. The Republican governor signed the law after it was approved by the Legislature earlier in May with only Republican support.
Jeffrey LembeckBack when Raquel Vélez was my boss at npm, inc., she had a name for when somebody would give you an ill-defined task and then would get upset when you didn't do it "right."
She called it "Bring me a rock." When I asked her what that meant, she would say "Bring me a rock... no, not that one." It was a pretty clear example.
She recognized quickly that I hate, with all of me, "Bring me a rock." It's the least good game.
Anyway, was thinking about that tonight.
Everybody should use that.

Mark SumnerHere's a quick example of how Elon's actions doom Twitter as an information source. And how the steps he's announced for April make things infinitely worse.
@carlottagall is NYT Sr. Correspondent Carlotta Gall, reporting from Ukraine.
@bungdan is long time war reporter Dan Murphy.
@GeromanAT is a Russian propagandist who promotes Wagner group, spreads LGBTQ hate, and promotes conspiracy theories.
After April 15, only one of these will appear in the default Twitter feed. Guess which one. ……

BirdsnbonesYesterday’s Great Blue Heron post reminded me of a time I saw a feather shake-out coming and turned the shutter speed dooooown…so here is the short series in all it’s fluffy glory! I can never not laugh at the last shot, I hope it brings some chuckles to you as well! #photography #birdphotography
Diligence JonesHuh. Just had a glimpse of how the mods on my instance keep an eye on tricky exchanges on here.
Yesterday, I got in a mild tussle in a thread. Today, a mod reached out to me to let me know they'd noticed and had taken some proactive steps.
Huh. That's...different.
