Infomaniak breaks rank and comes out in support of controversial Swiss encryption law | Tom’s Guide
Infomaniak argued that anonymity prevents justice, saying there must be a “happy medium” to prevent the digital landscape becoming a “Wild West.”
They further state that demands for anonymity show “lack of knowledge of Swiss political institutions”.
If you’re an Infomaniak user, you should stop that ASAP.
Kim Jong Un’s New Warship Capsizes at Launch Due to ‘Absolute Carelessness’ - The Wall Street Journal www.wsj.com/world/asi…
Kim, who witnessed the mishap unfold at a Wednesday launch event, lambasted officials for their “absolute carelessness, irresponsibility and unscientific empiricism” in causing the “serious accident,” North Korea’s state media reported. The 41-year-old dictator equated the gaffe to a criminal act.
Thought you were having a bad day?
In March, Waltz came under scrutiny after he put together a Signal chat and mistakenly included The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg, disclosing discussions with top national security officials about plans for a military strike on Houthi targets in Yemen.
Part of being a security adviser is being, you know, competent at security.
Sharon Osbourne calls for Irish band’s U.S. visas to be revoked after Coachella show - pennlive.com
“At a time when the world is experiencing significant unrest, music should serve as an escape, not a stage for political discourse.”

California is now 4th-largest economy in world, surpassing Japan
Some Americans constantly talk about how much CA supposedly sucks and is on the edge of collapse. My favorite criticism is that “no one wants to live there because it’s so expensive”, although the fundamentals of capitalism explain that it’s so expensive because so many people want to live there.

France Fines Apple €150 Million Over iOS Data Consent Rules - Bloomberg

A Case for Turning Tulsa Into the Next Big Tech Hub | WIRED
Requirements OK will never meet:
- Better politics. Techies are largely for individual rights. The Midwest largely isn’t.
- Better worker protections. Great tech jobs aren’t usually in right to work states.
- Employees own their ideas. In CA, for example, you can launch your own startup while still working for someone else. In the places in the Midwest I’ve lived, your employer generally owns things you create while working for them.
If you don’t build those, they won’t come.
