I’ve unplugged my refrigerator. This change will save $30 a month effective immediately.

Pick a hill to die on, or you’ll die in the valleys.

“That’s not the hill I’m going to die on,” said the Democrats, about every hill.

One thing is for sure about the teams building this generation of AI agents: They all hate booking dinner reservations.

Empirically there is very little to feel optimistic about right now. And yet

This piece of mine, my only meaningful work of erasure really, has had a long life. People write to me about it all the time. It's an erasure of a page of the application to become a naturalized US citizen; I made it in 2017 and it's feeling relevant again

I feel like I could make Bandit laugh.

Age ain’t nothing but a number! An ever-increasing number. If it gets too big you die.
