This is wrong. This is illiterate. This is unimaginably stupid. It does not deserve publication. Do not let anyone tell you any different. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/o...

The economics of remaking healthcare ground up, starting with the way we train/pay for training all healthcare providers, are so obvious that we definitely won't figure it out. It's a hell of a lot easier to choose to be a GP in Western KS without $648K worth of student debt out of the chute.

My three-year-old was reading Wired when she turned to me gravely and asked "Daddy, why are the shitlibs doxxing the nice DOGE kids?" And when I told her "Because they are luddites who fear the AI revolution," she started crying.

I'm telling you... this is gonna be a real problem for me specifically.

Gather ‘round friends and revel in my tale of old. Back around the turn of the 19th century, there was this English fellow called GK Chesterton. Now ol’ GK had some fancy idears back round the beginning of the Great Depression and one of idears was about a fence, see.

This… this is the thing. Just like “Who had an open and possibly expiring Nvidia short when Deepmind was announced?”

I had to call the IRS this morning to ask some questions about a notice and the employee who helped me could NOT have been more lovely and helpful. I find it really frustrating that there are those who would seek to openly attack govt. employees and public servants.

I’m sad to learn that my law school classmate, Kiah Duggins, died in the DC plane crash last night. Kiah was an exceptionally talented civil rights lawyer and aspiring legal scholar. I hope you’ll read about her work and the causes she cared about, some of which I’ll 🧵 below. What an immense loss

This matters. Please read.

I don’t spend much time or energy thinking about the “LLM” side of AI or machine learning, but I do wonder if the hedge funder releasing a significantly cheaper competitor has/had an open expiring Nvidia short.

now that DeepSeek has completed AI, we hope that Silicon Valley will turn its attention to the next best thing: investing in rural history museums

I’ve never made a meme. Is this anything?

I’m not gonna lie, this seems suboptimal. I wonder… how could such a thing be occurring now. What are some of the factors involved? (I’m not wondering)

If you're a fired IG slumming it here on Bluesky under an alias hmu we need to talk about your legal options. Signal is NationalSecurityCounselors.16.

I don’t see how you could write this without slipping a disk or tearing your ACL. I hope everyone is ok.

I didn’t realize Kevin Birdflu had been nominated to run CDC. Explains a lot.

Look… you can’t look like you should be driving an ‘81 Camaro for that long without starting to sound like you drive an ‘81 Camaro. That’s just science.

Me, talking about the Napster ban

Gather round kids and let me tell you a story about a real technology ban...

I want to be angry with the Broncos for wearing these uniforms. And then they go act like this…

Run for one of these offices. We’ll help you. runforwhat.net (graphic from @iamavoter.bsky.social)
