yeah come on look up Stephen Glass (if you're too young to remember him) As far as journalism? She's done.

For the post Thanksgiving hangout, I ended up playing a few rounds of the “Inglorious Basterds” game.

I took a college course on the history of espionage and the professor was a cold war liberal who had an oddly consistent worldview where he regarded Reality Winner and Chelsea Manning as patriotic whistleblowers but despised Snowden as a traitor and told the entire class he should be hanged

Did sone baking this week.

"Dawn Of The Peck" is the best Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving/horror episode.

Is there a convention for CSV records that technically span multiple rows? Do you repeat the same data multiple lines for the same fields? Null records in those field positions?

"I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure."

"Epic CEO angry that customers want to be informed and will refuse to purchase products they feel were made unethically so wants to take that choice away". There, fixed it for you.

Wow this speaks volumes. Tragic to see this beat absolutely gutted “Coverage: whatever is relevant, trending to our readers/community. Forget the ‘newsroom’ concept—we are a simple and honest editorial operation.” www.cjr.org/feature/mili...

National parks have SO MANY people from other countries (since they get real vacations!) And they spend a lot of money on hotels, food, souvenirs, etc. This is unbelievably dumb, it will destroy entire tourist towns

My microwave sings a little song when my Hot Pocket is done. Should it have the right to vote?

clarence thomas has no jurisprudential argument, he just hates women and thinks the constitution doesn’t protect a varia suit

A non -techie coworker was telling me about a smart wall calendar they have in their house, and it automatically updates when they forward emails with appointment information to a service. Gave my best”try not to be horrified” look while listening to someone describe sharing way too much PII.

My mind is wandering at work, so I’m wondering what would happen if Rhea Seehorn went to a sci-fi convention, and got on an escalator right behind Emperor Palpatine. Guessing it would be Stormtroopers doing a “My Lord”, followed by a “Hi, Carol”.

Cannot overstate how, from my perch as a national-security reporter, this would have been an earth-shattering scandal in a prior era.

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.

when we say we want more streets to be pedestrianized, this is what we mean

I honestly think this guy might be the dumbest SECDEF we've ever had.

Perhaps this helps explain why, when my son’s den was writing letters to thank soldiers for their service (as they do every year), it was recommended that the messages begin “Dear Warrior.” www.npr.org/2025/11/25/n...

The "Fireflies.ai" story reminds me of a story about a furniture company in the 90s walked investors through a call center where everybody was busy selling furniture online; but it turns out the employees were just calling friends and faking the orders.

Founders on LinkedIn still seem to be struggling with the difference between telling people about their humble beginnings and admitting to straight up committing fraud.

He spent 37 days in jail for a Facebook post. Larry Bushart’s story is a warning to us all. www.ms.now/opinion/tenn...

absolutely incredible -- CNN host introduces a segment about Trump's "new healthcare proposal," but less than two minutes later breaks into her script to announce "breaking news" that Trump's healthcare proposal is being postponed

Things I hate. Point of sale credit card readers that require entry of a PIN.

Jeffrey Goldberg's editorial leadership has been a disaster for the human race

Good morning. It was a little over 10 years ago when I tried to build a SQL relational database to track the sport of professional rodeo. It was tedious.

Someone in the Costco subreddit has figured out you can a) grab your receipt data as json and b) built a dashboard for it and Oh My

do you have any idea how much you have to piss somebody off to make them change their gauge

I mean, when the stated premise includes vague wording like "thrive", then the entire problem is actually bullshit. The other obvious solution is, "don't build AI if you cannot reliably or safety build the power it needs."

Fun non-spoilery Pluribus detail - this is actually the mayor of Albuquerque

That Oliver Stone made a movie lionizing Jim Garrison's ludicrous prosecution of an innocent man (Clay Shaw) is one of the most egregious historical transmogrifications in cinema. Imagine in 20 yrs a Stephen Miller hagiography starring Chalamet, that's the artistic crime level we're talking.

I swear I will never comprehend the documentation on how to split a Python package into two different packages.
