Well that was quite the sight to behold. (At VCF SW in Dallas) The amazing Sony KX-45ED1 in the flesh.

Palantir used to have affinity groups and DEI as late as 2022, and I had the logos saved on my phone because they pissed me off so much and of course they buried those pages. But I never forgot.

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

1971, Senator Ted Stevens (white sweater) in Ketchikan. Note the kid in the foreground with a billiken sweater. Billikens were a massively popular good luck charm in Alaska for a few decades before mostly disappearing. Learn more in my article posting later today. #alaskahistory

Why is germ theory in the same air quotes as "miasma theory," I ask as a historian of medicine who is very very tired

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

I love that a politician can say something like “I believe mice naturally spawn out of grain” and the news will now just treat that as a legitimate line of thought

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

The cool thing about codegen AI agents is that you can watch them pick a rabbit hole, dive into it, and spend tremendous amounts of wall clock time iteratively causing and then attempting to solve problems increasingly unrelated to the initial prompt, much like real developers.

Andrew Cuomo is afraid he'll lose, so his donors want you to fear me. His SuperPAC just sent out a mailer that artificially lengthened and darkened my beard. This is blatant Islamophobia—the kind of racism that explains why MAGA billionaires support his campaign.

Wait hold up! Everyone reported this like the entire $40bn had closed! It's almost as if SoftBank doesn't have the money to fund OpenAI and they're having to paper over that by begging every investor under the sun. They also have already said they'll need another $17bn in 2027? On top of the $30bn?

Lynda Sayce plays a piece of lute music that was recently discovered in an archival document at the Museum Plantin-Moretus. Since the handwritten lute tablature was folded and reused as scrap paper, it's problaby the first time in 400 years that this music is heard.

The Polish foreign minister, a writer and journalist who covered the Soviet war in Afghanistan in the 1980s, clearly knows a thing or two about a patiently-timed response.
