Simultaneously, the Giants were playing Washington on Monday Night Football at the Meadowlands.

Well if that isn’t a metaphor

I can get behind this as a vision for tech but it will only work if people can meaningfully opt out and lead analog, comfortable, humane lives if they want

Here's what you should be doing.

This drives me CRAZY. I grew up playing sports w/ boys. I played on a U12 boys select soccer team, b4 switching to a U12 girls team that kept beating us. Nobody had any issue with any of it. Youth sports have never had the strict sex/gender boundaries that “XX-XY” activists are now trying to defend.

Thirty years ago I was on a high-volume high-aggro mailing list, and when someone lost it like this the tradition was for someone to take the text of the message, alphabetize it, paste it into a reply, and say “these words didn’t appear to be in any particular order so I alphabetized them for you”

One of the greatest scams in the immigration system has been calling these people "judges." They are at-will employees of the President. They have never had a shred of "judicial" independence, and they are not actually judges in any real sense. Sure, they preside over hearings ... for their boss!

i think that making twitter impossible to gawk at if you're not logged in is the only helpful thing elon musk has ever personally done

look, nothing is simple and i have no parsimonious explanation for anything here, but a student protest movement, focused on corruption & authoritarianism, just won a major european election. a big deal.

A common experiment in phishing research is testing which personality types are resilient to phishing. It turns out every test gets different results, because everyone is vulnerable to emails crafted tor their personality. It's dangerous to trust someone who knows you and is trying to trick you.

thinking fondly again of the college girl at the donut place, who made a little muslim boy bounce giddily out the door after she told him his donut was free, and who waved me away and said "you're good" when it was my turn to pay and then, when asked if there was a deal that day said "i hate my job"

Laughing at the mental image of Jewel-Osco management desperately trying and failing to remember the word for “Morning Foods”

Remote bricking the Save function in standalone Office to upsell an MS365/Copilot subscription.

This is really good, too. Interview with one of the whistleblowers. George Schultz's grandson. I agree with him that the movie does a very poor job establishing just how messed up Theranos was and the fraud they perpetrated on patients and investors. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nj96...

liberty mutual was the only advertiser who stuck with tucker carlson after he said mexicans were "filth" so whatever fantasies you have about torturing the mascot are morally correct

Corporations made trillions of dollars off of a foundation of open-source software like PHP; the vulnerability apocalypse could destroy that foundation. It's time for corporations to pull their weight.

Had this idea in lockdown, half-built it, forgot about it, remembered it again, though might as well finish it.

literally this comic except he apparently lives in Czechia instead of Nebraska

I’m okay with this rhetoric. Is it the full truth? Not imo. But neither was 20c rhetoric about masterpieces and great books. That, too, undervalued the collective part of thought. But if someone is speaking passionately in a way that motivates people to read and think, I’ll take the win.

no one—really, he's one of one—comes up with strange ploys riddled with paranoia and casual cruelty like Jim Dolan

I don't think a deranged white nationalist tech bro should be allowed to funnel half a billion dollars into the election

Okay, look, I know obviously this is the most corrupt administration ever, and we should throw Jared down a well, but I just want to say... when you're committing $700M in crimes, USE A LAPTOP?! Don't do billion-dollar-crimes on a *phone*! Can't even buy _plane tickets_ on a phone!

Eons ago I was a copyeditor. People think it means you just know everything, but really the job is recognizing what you need to look up and confirm. (A bit like librarying!)

YALL LMAOOOOOO🤣

we love to see it ❤️

Great article

The problem for cybersecurity enjoyers is that there hasn’t been enough incidents to achieve the regularity and excitement of say, watching sports. Finally, with AI we have solved this

They both did it, it was a joint effort, it’s one of the crazier things to happen in the national security space (which is really saying something) and every government should be scrambling to reduce dependence on—and as soon as possible get off—Starlink/shield or any Musk product, including the US.

AWAKE COUSINS AWAKE

If anything, install the RECAP plugin so that anything you pay to look at on PACER, it can be the last time anybody has to pay for it. I've relied so much on the RECAP archive and have in turn contributed many, many dockets to the cause 20-40 cents at a time.

worth emphasizing again: wilson's allies pushed hard to give up all leverage in negotiation and transfer hundreds of millions of dollars to the blazers, citing economic impact that has no basis in reality, during a rolling series of budget crises hitting every level of oregon government

A thing everyone would hate but would be great art would be for one of these comic creations to return but the sequel is just played entirely straight as the tragedy it actually is. Alan Partridge, now ranting about how woke is why he doesn’t have Clive Myrie’s job. Ali G doing sales.

This thread is essential reading. We’re gonna need to fight some battles.

In a Signal chat that captured his right-ward turn, Andreessen cast himself as the spokesman of the forgotten midwest: “I was born in 1971 in Iowa and grew up in Wisconsin. My people are furious and not going to take it anymore.” Reality: he gives zero fucks about "his people" including family.

Because of the huge breadth of data AI agents like Muse are ingesting, this also means that users risk leaking not only their own sensitive information, but the information of everyone else they’ve had digital contact with. www.theverge.com/tech/1011938...
