I’m both frustrated by and thankful for the fact that Apple stores don’t carry devices with high specifications in the store or I’d probably empty my bank account every time I walked into one.

🔥 OBAMA: “IMAGINE IF I HAD DONE ANY OF THIS… I say this not on a partisan basis. This has to do with something more precious — who are we as a country, and what values do we stand for?” 🇺🇸

Yep. Language matters. She was literally kidnapped by government agents. There’s no other way to put it. She’s not the first and she won’t be the last. This is how they start - with the “other” and then they expand that definition to include all undesirables. We’re well and truly fucked.

New stuff brewing… can’t wait to get it to a point where I can share more!

Musk says #SocialSecurity is "a Ponzi scheme" Commerce Secretary Ludnik says seniors wouldn't complain if their checks didn't come Acting Social Security Commissioner Leland Dudek threatens to shut the agency down and "let the courts run it" Still think these leopards won't eat your face?

90% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die from the disease. That's why the medical community is excited about the results of a small trial in which nearly half of the pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine for the disease remained relapse-free three years later.

Southwest Airlines is speed running its way to irrelevance as it strips away everything that made it desirable.

On the economic boycott, we all know one day isn’t going to do it. We also know that we can’t avoid buying things forever. Corporate America only cares about *this* quarter. Stock up on everything you can in March. Yes, that gives a bump to Q1. Q2 and beyond take the hit.

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ? And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions ! We all look forward to reading your thoughts

@jdgreen1234.bsky.social James Green is back! Follow him.

I’ve blocked most politics whenever I can. After the election, I just couldn’t handle the anxiety anymore, knowing what was coming. The next four years are going to be among the worst that anyone alive has ever lived and my mental state can’t be bombarded nonstop with the constant reminder.

Spending a couple of days working from Denver while my kid does some really cool stuff at a museum here. They’re measuring various parts of a triceratops spine as a part of a research project.

I had a fantastic day at the Cybersecurity Marketing Society conference in Philadelphia today. I presented the results of ActualTech’s security buyers research to a great audience. Invigorating day! A lot of great energy.

Looking forward to attending the Cybersecurity Marketing Society conference tomorrow!

Set up my new toy this weekend… first print!

Business leaders of Bluesky: As we approach 2025, I have two questions: 1) What are you most looking forward to in 2025? 2) What are you most concerned about for 2025?

It strikes me that we’re all going to need to be more outspoken about disinformation in the coming years. So many have ignored it if it doesn’t affect them directly. We have to be direct and public about it so tiny lies don’t evolve into civilization-changing conspiracy theories.

I got to tour two local manufacturing businesses today. Incredible operations and attention to efficiency. In both cases, as I toured with the respective CEOs, it was clear that there is sincere mutual respect between each of them as their respective teams. I don’t always see that; refreshing.

It's really disheartening when I see most (or sometimes all) of these things still taking place in modern work cultures. We all know that they are wrecking balls, but so, so many people still allow these behaviors to exist in their organizations. Fixing them is hard, but it's worth the effort.

How does the new iOS inactivity reboot work? What does it protect from? I reverse engineered the kernel extension and the secure enclave processor, where this feature is implemented. naehrdine.blogspot.com/2024/11/reve...

I'm pretty out of touch, I guess. The only way that I knew that Jake Paul PPV'd his beatdown of a senior citizen was seeing a flood of complaints about Netflix on Facebook and LinkedIn.

Beautiful evening sky in Missouri tonight.

Wow... even though I've been on BlueSky for a few months, tonight is the first time I feel like it has the potential to be the OG Twitter. There are so many familiar faces that I didn't realize how much I've missed.

Very happy to see so many former Twitter peeps making their way to BlueSky. I came here a while back when my kid sent me an invite but it was pretty desolate then.

@sfoskett.bsky.social and @thectoadvisor.com Happy to see both of you here! Going to take some time to rebuild here vs. former Twitter.

Done with Twitter/X. Now need to build my network here while somehow avoiding politics.
