“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

Finland ends homelessness and ...
Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me

In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

Head's up, Mastodon users: There appears to be a coordinated effort to impersonate relatively high-profile people who have accounts on various instances but who have not used them in a while.

I've gotten several follow notifications - and a couple of DMs - from impersonators of people I know. The bogus accounts have lots of underscores in the handles, and they repost items from the past, sometimes years old. If you spot this, please report, do not engage, and then block.

Pls boost.

At work we use Swagger for documenting our (C#/.NET) APIs and provide a nice way to test them. Today Swagger crashed and didn't send a request to the backend if I used the example data

It turns out that this doesn't work:

/// <example>foovalue</example>
public List<string> Foo { get; set; }

But this does:

/// <example>["barvalue"]</example>
public List<string> Bar { get; set; }

I think it's the first time I've seen something crash because of an error in a comment.

The inevitable slow death of the power user in the age of tech capitalism.

Because power users are bad consumers.
