Keep hearing of train burglaries in LA on the scanner so went to #LincolnHeights to see it all. And… there’s looted packages as far as the eye can see. Amazon packages, @UPS boxes, unused Covid tests, fishing lures, epi pens. Cargo containers left busted open on trains. @CBSLA

This is unacceptable.
We now need to know more about @RobinhoodApp’s decision to block retail investors from purchasing stock while hedge funds are freely able to trade the stock as they see fit.
As a member of the Financial Services Cmte, I’d support a hearing if necessary.
Replying to @motherboard
More than half of all Robinhood users own at least some GameStop stock.
They are now unable to freely trade it; the app is only allowing users to close out their positions. vice.com/en/article/m7ak7y/r…

Did you know that latest browsers/OS expose the system level dark mode setting to websites so you can use it for styling as we do with baseweb.design (still WIP). Lovely feature! Dark mode everywhere! developer.mozilla.org/en-US/…

Joke aside, the real value in dependency injection is the lesser discussed dependency resolution. When you inject them out of order, how do you resolve their order?
This was done excellently by fusionjs.com

Yesterday, @SlackHQ sent me an email. My accounts on various Slack teams had been immediately deactivated, with no prior warning. The reason? I've visited family in Iran and used Slack when there. Only my work's paid-for Enterprise account works still.

ALT In order to comply with export control and economic sanctions laws and regulations promulgated by the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. Department of Treasury, Slack prohibits unauthorized use of its products and services in certain sanctioned countries and regions including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea region of Ukraine.

Border agents have thrown out 3586 jugs of water left for migrants in the desert.
They did this knowing that 7000 migrants have died attempting to cross.
