If you live in the US and have a Jersey Mike's nearby (and if you live in the US, you probably do,) tomorrow would be a great day to pick up a sandwich there.

Tomorrow, every store across the country will donate 100% of sales to the Special Olympics. Not just profit, but sales, every last dollar they bring in.

I don't have any particular affiliation with the company or the Special Olympics organization. I just love a good sandwich and I think this is a pretty awesome way to support a worthy cause.

"You can control what you think. You can control how you think. And therefore you can control who you are."

That's Chinese-American Olympic freestyle skier, model, millionaire and Stanford student Eileen Gu, and I've never heard about her, but she seems like a pretty interesting and smart person.

There are two types of software devs in December end:
1. Those who respect the Code Freeze.
2. Those who spend Christmas Eve or rest of the holidays stuck in their childhood room, trying to SSH into a production server over their parents' ADSL while their better half stares stares at them with pure annoyance from the hallway.

Which one are you gonna be? 🤔

Idea: a map app with the interface of a dating app. I want to see and quickly filter all coffee shops in my city. I open the app, I start swiping. There are hundreds of them. I won't get through all of them in one sitting, but I don't want to see the ones I've already swiped away.

Frankly, I could use that app for TV/movies too. No, Netflix, I *still* don't want to watch "White Chicks", please stop presenting it to me.

Six congressional Democrats released a video advising members of the U.S. military to “refuse illegal orders.” Trump posted this was sedition punishable by death.

This week, news reports have alleged that the U.S. military carried out a strike to kill two survivors of an initial missile strike on a boat in the Caribbean.

Fun fact: Firing on shipwrecked survivors is *specifically* called out as an illegal order that service members must refuse.

Another new Let's Encrypt-secured website, another case of getting 82 hacking attempts in the first 30 seconds after it came online for the first time ever.

Do. Not. Kid. Yourself. "Oh, I'll delete the config files once I get it working." "Eh, I'm just some nobody. Who's going to care?" Yeah, I'll tell you who: people who watch for new sites come online and then immediately slam them with hacking probes.

"I'll get to it soon" means you better do it within 3 seconds.
