From the show. @pbsnews.org

everyone I've ever esteemed who posts a lot has at least one post where it's like "ok grandpa..." and that is OK. everyone is trying to make sense of a polluted media environment, no one is immune to emotional reasoning, brains are weird, all posting is preliminary and reasoning iterative

ok in fairness to this dumb idea, I would also probably do something that let me give a presidential address that began "oceans are now battlefields"

Well deserved. Also one of my all-time favorite newsletters ever, on health and wellness but also about, like, ~everything~

Love this Wendell Berry quote sent my way by Anne Lamont. Perfect for the holidays — “Be joyful, though you have considered all the facts.”

i see the fucking bluesky openwashing is starting again if bsky/atproto isn't fashtech, it works just like fashtech (y'know apart from the bit where bsky corp is literally rationalists, coiners and neoreactionaries) >>

👀 There's more drama at the Heritage Foundation, the group behind Project 2025. More than a dozen senior staffers quit over the weekend -- and took new jobs at Mike Pence's group, Advancing American Freedom. The Tucker Carlson/Nick Fuentes antisemitism fallout is still going at Heritage.

Hands-down my favorite thing I learned about AIM in Version History prep was that it was a sneakily revolutionary work tool, too?

based on my experience, lawyers wouldn’t sign off on a piece if they didn’t think you did enough to try to get a comment from the subject of a story

crisis averted -- we asked chatgpt and grok and now have both sides of the story, direct from the chips. have learned mechahitler is involved

Anyone else think Apple's icons for Journal and Shortcuts are way too similar? Shortcuts's icon makes more sense to me: it's a nice stylized "S". I don't even get what the Journal icon represents. Sheets of paper?

"A.I. for programmers as a learning aid is likely to shape up to be like those belly-jiggling machines from the 1950s and all the other things we humans have desperately made in an effort to try to get the effects of exercise without actually exercising." - ssokolow

NEW: Bari Weiss addresses her decision to hold last night's CECOT story on the CBS News morning editorial call: "Our viewers come first, not a listing schedule or anything else..."

Hark Daily is the thing I listen to first when I'm in the car and want to queue up a podcast. I have discovered so many unexpected, beautiful, surprising moments (and podcasts!) through it. Human-curation of human-generated content is such a beautiful thing in our age of algorithmic overreach.

"AI" was always a marketing term. ML-that-works marketed as "AI" in 2025 is doing so to ride the LLM hype. also, all the considerable money in ML - buckets of it - comes from the chatbot vendors. This leaves the field functionally corrupt. if they don't want the stain of the chatbot? Their move.

Rust with chatbots! (Everyone disliked that.) Klabnik: > I have also been wondering for a few years if you can build a language without financial backing and a team. I think LLMs might change that equation. oh boyyyy archive.is/Yg3PZ

after that piece about george floyd that radley balko tore to shreds she’s just very careful

thinking back to a couple weeks ago when trump posted about cbs news being very unfair to him

i like how die hard is about a guy coming to acceptance about his wife being a higher earner

in 13 going on 30 what happens when she goes back to being 13 like she knows that cellphones and the internet n shit are gonna be huge, do you think she buys a fuck ton of tech stocks

Documenting this shawl I knit before I give it away 🎄 An endlessly repeating stitch pattern makes the fabric look pleated. I threw it over a Comme des Garçons jacket.
