I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

announcing a new community-focused gem server from the team previously behind rubygems: https://gem.coop. join us and start using it today!
gem.coop

We’re excited to introduce gem.coop – a new server for gems in the Ruby ecosystem. We aim for fast, simple hosting, that is compatible with Bundler but optimized for the next generation. It’s built for the community by the former maintainers and operators of RubyGems.org.

This is how the bad guys always set it up so they almost can’t lose, they go on Teevee and say “Tylenol CAUSES Autism,” - and then start a bunch of counter arguments about other causes and many causes, and now everyone is talking like they agree there’s a cause and it’s just a matter of what it is.
.
People, you do not accept their premise and argue about Tylenol, you say, “NOTHING CAUSES Autism,” same as nothing “causes” gay or black. Or Indigenous: the only answer is We Were Always Here, and fuck you.

Well yes, soylent green _is_ people, but you can't just apply existing homicide laws to a business like ours. The entire humans-as-nutritional-sludge industry would be out of business.

@flavorjones Great talk - this is very exciting! And I saw the note in the README about supporting non-sqlite databases. I would love to add this to an existing app that uses postgres. If that work is underway, I'm happy to start testing it!

I forget the original source but this is so good. I need a little pocket version that goes in my wallet like a credit card.
