I'm working on a tech policy/strategy for the Incarcerated Workers Organizing Committee. Twitter is essential to our organizing right now - in terms of helping spread the word and getting media coverage of our (and others') activity.

I bet there's a fair amount of overlap in their demographic of roleplay nerds with mechanical keyboard nerds.
where are the alternative branches of processor architecture waiting in the wings to leap upon this very bad (yet still overblown) vulnerability in the dominant strain?
they were market losers, and we have built markets that kill losers dead.
lacks of diversity evidence themselves /everywhere/ in our technology industry, and lacks of diversity cause systemic fragility.
I encourage you to start looking for ways to make your life more diverse in every aspect. Me too.
