7 scoreless on 94 pitches for MacKenzie Gore. He gave up singles to the first 3 batters he faced tonight. Didn't allow another hit after that. His ERA is down to 2.87 and he leads the majors with 108 strikeouts.

This is what’s needed. Intelligent people witnessing the dangerous consequences of foolish gutting of important agencies and both warning the public and urging them to call their representatives. Next we likely need meteorologists leading street protests.

It's a rare fellow panelist who can start by referencing Trumpet Winsock and end by joking about running Kubernetes on a smartwatch, but @tailscale.com CEO Avery Pennarun was just that kind of nerd. Great way to wrap up my panel lineup here!
