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.

It’s wild when the people who control the only feed most people see accuse us of being the echo chamber. People are scared and in pain—they deserve spaces to talk without top-down interference. That’s what we’re building.

This only happens with ranked choice voting. It'll be interesting to watch candidates endorse one another (but still compete with each other!)

Polling roundup: Trump is underwater on 11 of 12 questions about immigration and the LA protests Polls show voters don't like mass deportations or the federal troops. At this point, Trump has moved policy solidly beyond what public opinion has sanctioned.

“Tesla’s driverless ‘robotaxis’ could launch in Austin as soon as June 22. But a demo in Austin today showed a $TSLA, manually driven to test its Full Self-Driving system, failed to stop for a child-sized dummy at a school bus—and hit it.” @cbsaustin @velez_tx

The fact that DHS is backpedaling like this pretty clear makes me think they think they fucked up.

I really hope we publish a writeup when we figure out how to do algorithms good because it has not been obvious and people need to know what we learn

Everyone I knew who covered disinformation got laid off, their bosses got bullied into firing them, or they changed their beats from actual Nazi harassment campaigns. It cannot be stressed the damage the paid-for Substack “free speech” guys did in the service of fascism and against real free speech.

Years ago, I made a tester account for this kind of thing. It is following only @NBA and nothing else. It has never posted or interacted with a single tweet. I just logged on to it. Here’s what the algorithm showed me as I scrolled for 30 seconds.

All eyes are on the protests and Trump's response, but meanwhile Democrats won even more special elections last night. That continues a streak of overperformance for the party — and it's not just due to a huge turnout advantage. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/democrats-...

New from 404 Media: here's our report on the aircraft circling above the LA protests. Local, state, DHS, military all flew. Left: aircraft from air base. Right: a distinctive high altitude/hexagonal flight pattern, looks like a Predator drone (it flew to border after) www.404media.co/dhs-black-ha...

1/4 I care and have an answer! The solution is challenging but straightforward: Bluesky reaches mainstream scale (>100M MAUs) and then employs a few "small" monetization strategies. This works because, at scale, even "small" ideas would add up to billions per year without any ethical compromise.
