Just as a private equity firm buys out a corporation and strips it for parts, a consultant class is raiding the Democratic Party and getting “generationally wealthy” along the way New from me and @adambonica.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/2163...

I genuinely do not understand people who want to drive everywhere and park for free at their destination but insist on living in San Francisco, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Washington DC. The other 99.5% of the country has what you want with much lower housing prices. Move there!

My IP-based geolocation has always been off by around 100 miles (kind of inconvenient when searching for the nearest big box store), but TIL you can submit corrections to the three major databases, MaxMind, IPInfo, and IP2Location. Time will tell if this actually improves things for me.

“After savings and consumption I have no money” is my favorite genre of these

New fake name just dropped.

The difference between cucumbers and pickles is jarring.

Interesting picture. What if we built houses out of that?

I’m out of tokens and have to raw-dog react native for the next hour like it’s Q3 2025 😭😭😭

Turns out it would be pretty easy to substantially lower the cost of MRIs.

Can I say “Pigeon Creek Number 2”, which is a totally not-made-up waterway?

I feel like I haven’t even been properly lied to about the purposes of this war

This is pretty cool (I had this same thought myself) and honestly not a bad business idea as a web service. "People who are strongly considering dropping 4–5 figures on an HVAC system" seems like an audience that businesses would be eager to advertise to.
