I asked AI about me, and it had nothing. Its advice? Write more. So here I am. Inspired by @cassidoo.co pixelflips.com/blog/let-me-...

They said AI would handle the boring stuff so you could focus on interesting problems. Nobody mentioned you'd spend that time reviewing AI's output instead. pixelflips.com/blog/the-ai-...

Letter: Donald Trump doesn't bother with dog whistles — he is blatantly and proudly expressing his deep and vile racism.

UX developers have always been the bridge between design and engineering. It turns out AI may need to cross that bridge too. #designsystems #ai

AI coding tools are fast, but are only as good as the constraints you give them. Design systems aren't competing with AI. They're the infrastructure AI needs to do its job well. #designsystems #ai pixelflips.com/blog/design-...

isn’t it weird how the people screaming about immigrants “draining resources” never mention the $14.5 trillion surplus they generated over the past 30 years? it’s obvious that the cruelty was always the point. www.cato.org/white-paper/...

again we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are his net worth is $253.2 billion. so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire and then do it again tomorrow and again the day after that and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months

So I know a lot is going on right now, but I do want to share this: I’m excited to share the launch of the new Microsoft Inclusive Design website 💙 This project is my love letter to the community and practice that’s shaped my work for nearly a decade. inclusive.microsoft.design 1/

From @theathletic.com: Minnesotans hoped for a moment of normalcy at the Warriors-Timberwolves game, which had been postponed after federal agents killed Alex Pretti. But that simply wasn't possible. “Nothing feels right. Our hearts aren’t in it.” nyti.ms/4qDpD9T

NYT video analysis confirms victim’s gun was removed before he was shot. So he was unarmed. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/24/us/minneapolis-shooting-federal-agents-video.html

His name is Alex Jeffrey Pretti. He was 37 years old. He was a licensed nurse. He was recording ICE and defending a female protester from their aggression. And they executed him.

That was an execution.

Every Democratic governor, attorney general, senator and House member needs to stand up and loudly say in unison: Enough. Trump's war on Americans must end.

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

Just got an email from my kid’s basketball coach outlining the safety precautions the host school has put in place, including when and how they’ll go into lockdown if the federal secret police show up. Again, schools making plans to protect children from their own government.

The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.

The inevitability of AI is now under threat from no one wanting to use it.

Bruce Springsteen has donated $500,000 to the family of Renee Good - the woman killed by ICE - who left behind a six-year-old son.

Stop saying Trump is threatening tariffs on European countries. He’s threatening tariffs on European *products* – but American companies and people will pay the Trump tax.

National media: Please stop describing what’s happening in Minneapolis as “protests.” There has been a modest, sustained protest outside the Whipple federal building, about 10 miles from downtown, but... 1/3

Still hard to believe that there are videos and witnesses to someone shooting a woman in the face three times. Yet the shooter has not been arrested even though the police know who and where he is.

ICE has become a Trojan horse for rabid Nazis, bloodthirsty Nationalists and gun-toting Nitwits. People are dying in their custody. Americans are being murdered. If democrats think rigorous training will fix what amounts to a domestic terror group, they have not been paying attention.

Great episode. youtube.com/watch?v=6cMM...

Must be awesome to have your own private government piggy bank!

Turns out we invaded to protect indigenous communities in Venezuela. Who knew?

21-year-old Kaden Rummler was shot in the face at close range with a projectile by a federal agent during a peaceful protest last week in Santa Ana, California. Kaden, a college student, is now permanently blind in his left eye.
