The best definition of "information" that I have come across says that information is a measure of uncertainty reduced. If "two weeks for Mr. Trump can mean something, or nothing at all," there is no information to be had. Uncertainty remains where it was. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/19/w...

Dialing into class from a hotel mezzanine and the 30-foot ceiling and 20-foot windows make an amazing set.

I asked A.I. to complete my novel using my own writing style and it did my laundry, went shopping, cleaned the kitchen and spent the rest of the day dicking around online.

Meta’s Oversight Board, which reviews the social media giant’s moderation practices, ruled “Community Notes” are not a proper substitute for fact-checking.

The Section 230 conundrum will require a lot of thought to solve appropriately. Wishing it away won’t make online life better. As Mencken put it: “… there is always a well-known solution to every human problem — neat, plausible, and wrong.”

For the British aristocracy, handing down parliamentary and coronation gowns from one generation to the next preserves family tradition — and saves money. I wonder how many families anywhere hand down academic gowns.

Arresting journalists shows a serious weakness in the government’s confidence in its methods.

A new TV series on investigative reporter and Epstein scooper Julie Brown of The Miami Herald will star Laura Dern. The real Julie Brown told Martin Baron that she could spend all day trying to correct errors in social posts about Epstein et al. but instead she just keeps reporting.

My load-bearing wall of lanyards fell over during spring break and require a new solution.
