At the recent XOXO conference, I spoke about that burning feeling I get right in my upper abdomen when I’m overwhelmed with excitement or inspiration or drive to do something.https://www.mollywhite.net/micro/entry/xoxo-2024#xoxofest

The Internet Archive lost its appeal in the Hachette case. What a huge, devastating loss for all of us.#InternetArchive

Seen a couple takes about the Hachette case along the lines of “the Internet Archive should’ve stuck to just archiving the Internet and not testing new theories of copyright” and uhhh... I’m not sure what it is you think the Internet Archive does, outside of testing new theories of copyright.#InternetArchive

People have gotten so used to the existence of the Internet Archive’s web archive that they forget how revolutionary and subversive it is. The idea that that is somehow safe while the book lending was not is completely flawed. They were just up against a more powerful group.#InternetArchive

to the publications that stylize headlines and other content in ALL CAPS, but who use `text-transform: uppercase` instead of actually typing the headline in caps: i see you, i appreciate you, i love you

@motopascyyy i personally appreciate it because when i copy/paste a title to use in a reference, i don’t have to go to the trouble of re-titlecasing it.it also can help screenreaders misreading titles as containing acronyms (although apparently some still do this with text-transform), and it also allows sighted people who have difficulty reading all-caps to more easily restore the titles to titlecase using custom stylesheets.

Newsletter: Even the most pro-Trump crypto faithful think Trump’s new crypto scheme is a terrible idea. Also, an FTX crypto executive earns some benefit of the doubt, and a lawsuit accuses “Pharma Bro” Martin Shkreli of disrespecting the Wu-Tang Clan.https://www.citationneeded.news/issue-65/#CitationNeeded #crypto #cryptocurrency

New filings in the FTX case, made after executive Ryan Salame pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 7.5 years, raise the possibility that something weird happened with respect to promises about an investigation into his partner, Michelle Bond.#CitationNeeded #crypto #cryptocurrency

FTX executive Caroline Ellison is seeking a sentence of time served for her guilty plea on seven charges pertaining to the collapse of the FTX cryptocurrency exchange. Her sentencing submission paints her as someone whose “moral compass [was] warped” by Sam Bankman-Fried.#FTX #crypto #cryptocurrency

The probation department is also recommending time served, with three years of supervised release. Like Sam Bankman-Fried, she’s hit the maximum of 43 points on the sentencing guidelines, which would equate to a life sentence.https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.590940/gov.uscourts.nysd.590940.497.0.pdf#FTX #crypto #cryptocurrency

Exhibits include more of her diary entries to support the story that she was deeply unhappy and self-medicating with Adderall, and desperate for Sam Bankman-Fried’s approval and affection.#FTX #crypto #cryptocurrency
