the world has changed so much since we started working on this issue at the end of last year, and I am so impressed with contributors and the core team for pulling out this beautiful, timely issue through all of it. I hope it provides something to folks in a dark time.
we've just released the editor's note for Logic's upcoming issue, Care! you can read it online here:
https://logicmag.io/care/where-deer-stroll-peacefully-past-computers/
the full TOC for the issue along with ordering info is here: https://logicmag.io/care/
I'm really excited for the interview series with government mainframe programmers to make it into the world—feels like we've been working on it forever

gov benefits, technology
this is the introductory piece about why safety net technology systems suck that I've been wanting (touches contractors like deloitte, but also highlights the role of punitive policy that focuses on fraud and complex eligibility): https://themarkup.org/coronavirus/2020/07/16/unemployment-benefits-website-failures-deloitte-ibm
sf, homelessness
it's absolutely crushing how many people are living on the street in SF right now, especially at a time when hotels are sitting open and the city has failed to deliver on the safe sleeping sites (basically parking lots for tents to be set up, with access to sanitation and some services).
when passing out food I'd ask where the next set of tents were, and they'd only ever be a max of a few blocks away. it's just fucking infuriating.
RIP logic camp
