If i can give junior developers just one piece of advice: never, EVER assume that what makes sense to you will make sense to anyone else. Always, ALWAYS challenge your assumptions. Ask your fellow devs to check your assumptions. Ask someone in a different role. Ask your MOM.

It's Tuesday. Bovino may be gone but nothing has changed. ICE is still in Minnesota, still not following the law or court orders. Stephen Miller and the agents who murdered Good and Pretti are still on the job. Trump is giving an econ speech in Iowa. The work continues. bsky.app/profile/kyle...

Judges are doing their job. Senators need to do theirs. ICE out of Minnesota. wapo.st/3LBorov

Barriers to AI adoption isn’t just about technological trust—addressing the economics of attention will be key to achieving human-AI collaboration. Read the full paper here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

We keep saying: "AI will handle the boring stuff, and humans will supervise." But the problem is--as AI reliability improves, it becomes really hard to motivate a human to conscientiously monitor it. In a new WP with Gerard Cachon, we describe the "human-AI contracting paradox."

The Nobel Peace Prize becoming so prestigious that wars are fought over a head of state coveting it is some real monkey paw stuff for Alfred Nobel.

Grocery stores, especially you, Kroger/Gerbes: why do you put the baskets on the outside of your security check point coming in? How am i supposed to get a basket once I'm inside of i decide i need one? Trying to go back out sets off the alarms. UX fail

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

So we’re all clear: The guy who decried foreign involvement by America in the 2010s and then got the never-Kamala people to insist he’d keep us out of foreign wars wants to start something with Venezuela.

I really wish advertisers would provide a way to give feedback on ads. No matter how many pumpkin spice latte ads you show me, i am never, EVER going to buy one. It's a waste of my time and your money

In short, the problem here is not that Signal ‘chose’ to run on AWS. The problem is the concentration of power in the infrastructure space that means there isn’t really another choice: the entire stack, practically speaking, is owned by 3-4 players. 11/

ICE would be wise to remember what it says in the Bible. Matthew 25:40 - "Truly I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of my brethren you did it to me."

NEW — Videos obtained by The TRiiBE show federal agents detaining a Laugh Factory worker on Chicago’s North Side this morning. He and another person were detained around 9:20 a.m., according to rapid response teams. Story TK shortly on thetriibe.com.

GOV. WHITMER: “.. no one is worried about building a ballroom in Washington, D.C. What they want is to make sure that they can feed their kids next week.” Most Americans are “never going to step foot in a ballroom over the course of their lifetime.” @thehill.com thehill.com/homenews/adm...

I think one of the things that non-evangelicals find most annoying about evangelicals is when they claim that other people can’t lead happy and fulfilling lives unless they believe in the same things that they do.

Copy-editing AI generated content is *exhausting*. Far more difficult and time-consuming than copy-editing human-generated content. Even when it's correct, it's correct in a way that doesn't *quite* make sense unless you squint.

U.S. REP. DELIA RAMIREZ (D-IL): "We are very clear that the greatest threat to public safety in our communities, it's called ICE. It's called CBP. And unfortunately, even USCIS is being weaponized at this moment. ICE is operating as a terror force..."

I remember being told in the early 2000s that PHP was a toy language and if I were serious about professional development, I should switch to a "serious" language.

BREAKING: The NYT fights back!

Why is a foreign government building an air force base on US soil?

Am I the only one that finds most AI implementations exceptionally annoying? They're great when narrowly defined and closely monitored, but it's of no value when it isnt *accurate*. For example: what good is AI-generated meeting notes if only 80% of it is accurate and 20% is just completely made up?

can anyone explain to me why @cloudflare.social has become SO INCREDIBLY AGGRESSIVE in blocking access to sites that use its services? simple curl header requests are blocked, i can no longer access feeds through my feed readers, etc.

#boycotdisney Cancelled my Disney+ and Hulu

There goes the First Amendment.

It's easy to scoff at Trump designating as a "terrorist organization" something that's not an *organization* at all. I have different view. When you declare an idea rather than an organization to be terrorism, you can declare *anyone* a terrorist. And that is what he will do. This is horrifying.

The union representing the musicians from Jimmy Kimmel’s band releases a statement calling the FCC’s pressure on Disney “state censorship.”

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

I don’t know when it’s going to pop for a lot of normies that they are living under an authoritarian regime, but the cancellation of popular TV shows that make fun of the administration might do it www.vulture.com/article/abc-...

May God grant us the grace to live our lives so that, when our lives are over, no one may have cause to rejoice in our deaths.
