The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

Leevi Merilainen has been sent down to the Belleville Senators ahead of the Ottawa Senators’ four-game road trip. It paves the way for Linus Ullmark to make his return. He hasn’t played a game since the first period of the Dec. 22 game against the Edmonton Oilers.

Conservative waste. This guy likes to pretend he's a sound fiscal manager. He's a destroyer. Hospitals and universities crumble while he throws billions around on foolishness.

The deep goal of bluesky is to decentralize the social internet so that every individual controls their experience of it rather than having it be controlled by 5 random billionaires. Everyone thinks they signed up for a demuskified twitter...we actually signed an exciting and bizarre experiment.

Toronto's best hope is that they give the removal work to Metrolinx. It will take 12 years to plan and design, and the cost will grow to $200 million per km and might never be finished.
