This is 1) hilarious 2) super annoying 3) in some cases genuinely story-worthy, e.g. the number of people losing Instagram business accounts due to automated moderation failures

Recognition from AIPAC that direct association with Democratic candidates is now a hindrance, not a help

In any other admin, this would probably be the most outrageous official statement ever made by a sitting FCC director: Strongly implying that the government forbids broadcast networks from reporting on the president's falling poll numbers. (Sorry to paste from twitter but that's where he posts.)

When AI wipes us out it won't be with a nuclear war, it will be warm meat products

I asked Claude Opus 5.5 to code review a 500 line Python script. Come back after a coffee break and it's spawned 10 sub agents and burned through more than a million tokens. Vibe coding is the future! 🙃

Big middle-school book report energy.

NEW: Meta is facing a proposed class action alleging it used Facebook and Insta photos to build its NameTag face-recognition system and train AI models without consent. WIRED found code for NameTag hidden inside Meta’s AI app downloaded by tens of millions. Meta said the feature “doesn’t exist.”

"The watermark is Google’s. The app that reads the watermark is Google’s. The search that reads it is Google’s. Every road out of the problem runs back through the company that built it."

Honestly I'm speechless. It's not like they were off by just a little bit. It's totally wrong. www.reuters.com/world/africa...

ICE just posted a new RFP for transporting detainees to/from a range of facilities in Baltimore, Boston, New York, New Jersey and Washington. Daily round trips to airports, jails, hospitals and more with detainees restrained and under armed guard. sam.gov/workspace/co...

SCOOP: The drone giant DJI was able to successfully get FCC certification for a drone made in China using a shell company and by lying to the government, claiming their drone was made in a Texas recycling facility. I found out in June. The FCC sent an Order to Show Cause thanks to my research.

Amazing how quickly tokenmaxxing has died out when enterprise users have to actually bear the cost

"Old, printed books ... are guaranteed to be free of the very AI slop AI companies are producing."

I nearly fell out of the Overton window reading this

Yet another instance of the techniques of Israeli occupation being used by US police forces.

This is art, to me.

New York sculptor spent $100,000 to make a Charlie Kirk statue no one wants to buy

In games this dull they should be allowed to bring a second ball into play simultaneously. Maybe even a third.

First day back at work after parental leave! Did anything much happen in the last three months??

Here’s my interview with Shishir Mehotra, the CEO behind Grammarly’s “expert review” feature which attributed writing advice to people - including me lol - without permission. Or, as you will hear us talk about a lot, compensation. www.theverge.com/podcast/8987...

TotalEnergies has agreed to what's essentially a refund of its leases for projects off the coasts of North Carolina and New York, and will invest the money in fossil fuel projects instead, the Department of Interior announced. n.pr/3PjBEUt

I set up a tracker to follow average national gas prices at the pump since the first strikes on Iran were launched. Here's where we're at:

This map is brilliant. What it maps is enraging Why cities are resisting ICE's detention expansion www.npr.org/2026/03/23/g...

"Great work taking out that IRGC command center. That wasn't just a bold strike—it was inspired. Now is there anything else I can help you with?"

I used this system just recently for a story on small arms purchases by DHS. Taking it offline unquestionably makes the US government more secretive and less accountable.

It's a Boeing 737 with a queen bed, showers, kitchen and a bar.

According to the Washington Post's guild, recent layoffs eliminated positions for: - 37% of white guild members - 43% of Asian guild members - 45% Black members - 50% Hispanic/Latino members.

Last week the DHS Office of the Inspector General released its current plan for oversight reviews. Many areas of inquest where the American public would really benefit from transparency.

Instagram has suspended Track AIPAC, the highly popular watchdog project that documents AIPAC’s political spending, citing a violation of Instagram intellectual property rules, specifically trademark rules. The account tracks FEC donations, and points out top-funded lawmakers.

In 1943, musician Woody Guthrie placed a message on his guitar: "This machine kills fascists." I am part of a group that's shipped half a million free 3D-printed whistles to defend against ICE — 200,000 of them in the first week of February alone. This is the story of the "Whistle Crew."

think this might be one of the first good instances of AI visual art I've seen. the making of is great too cannoneyed.com/projects/iso...

"Capitalism"

The brutality in Minneapolis has in effect taken a very popular issue for Trump (immigration enforcement) and turned it into a political liability

Hard to argue with this. Great piece by @vermontgmg.bsky.social

Remarkable scenes of resistance.
