Good thing Delaware just legalized raw milk!
As of February, at least 165 people were sickened with salmonella infections tied to raw milk products from Raw Farm, of Fresno, California. It is the largest reported salmonella outbreak linked to raw milk in the U.S. in the past decade, according to health officials.

Today I learned that Phillies reliever (and newly-minted All Star) Matt Strahm has a Youtube channel called Strahm’s Stadium Pulls that features him opening packs of baseball cards, and is extremely wholesome content.

@bernielomax.littlebuffalo.online I guess after a certain point, can you even tell the difference between 110* and 120*?

@dael.bsky.social Is my mind turning with ways that some of these very explicit strategies could be applied to DE-WFP? Perhaps! Who can really say for sure.

I am also dependably engaged from 10am to 4pm, but more likely to have verbal miscues and become fatigued outside of that time range or while traveling abroad, so I really don’t see how this is an issue.

The overall effect size for police force size on crime is negative, small, and not statistically significant.
Police are not primarily crime fighters, according to the data | Reuters
At this point, the sensible, evidence-backed, research-based policy position is that the most efficient way to “fight crime” is to improve the material conditions of people by housing the homeless and guaranteeing a universal basic income.
Any position that suggests more investment in law enforcement is either unaware of the prevailing facts, or willfully ignoring them.

A great reminder that while git is extremely powerful, you can do most of what you need with a handful of commands.

Bookmarked Why Wall Street Won’t Stop Trump by Adam Serwer.
“Woke capital” is a myth, a shallow analysis that mistakes advertising and brand management for ideology. What do corporations really want? The answer is the same as it’s always been: tax cuts for the wealthy, deregulation, and a labor market more favorable to employers than to workers.

Bookmarked Jobs for Delaware Legislators by Blue Delaware.
Delaware tolerates a General Assembly with an ethics crisis which rivals our national Supreme Court… Speaker of the House Valerie Longhurst’s PAL has benefited from a 1300% increase in public appropriations under her tenure.

Bookmarked Fluxblog 455: good night to the Pitchfork era by Matthew Perpetua.
Media corporations are not our friends. They don’t care about writers, they don’t care about audiences, and they don’t care about subject matter. Working for them is like surfing – you can ride a wave for a while but it will eventually crash. Major media corporations like Condé Nast and the New York Times are attractive to writers because they seem like firm institutions that are less likely to collapse, but that’s just an illusion.

@manton Gotcha, thanks for the response. Per-post syndication will be an absolutely game changer for me. Thanks for all your hard work on m.b!

@len
@manton Are you thinking per-post crossposting might make it into 3.0 or will that be later?
(sorry if you’ve already covered and I missed it)
Len Damico
@len
@manton I have been looking forward to this from the moment I figured out how cross-posting worked. Thank you!

@len
@manton Really enjoying the bookshelves feature you’ve recently added. Have we considered a similar feature for music buffs to share “Currently listening to?” Something that uses the Discogs API maybe?

@martinfeld I 100% agree, but now I get to experience that same sense of “I’m going to ruin this costly Apple product I just bought” as when I got AirPods. Somehow still haven’t lost one in over a year, but I think about it every time I use them.

@gr36 Yeah. This 100%. It’s the main thing keeping me from spending more time with it.

@zachphillips I would like that, too! What’s funny is that I was just “at your office” (on the train to DC now). I believe I own you lunch in Philly for flaking on you recently. Lemme check the schedule.
