Let's not mince words: * If you don't support trans people, you're a bad human * If you have to add caveats to your support (e.g. "as long as my kids don't see"), you're one of the worst kinds of human * Trans deserve your *unconditional* support for their humanity

Our VP of R&D, @MalwareJake, was featured in @WIRED's coverage of the AWS outage. "I don't think this was just a 'stuff happens' outage. I would have expected a full remediation much faster." Read more 👇 https://t.co/5xHQe5v4G8

I'm on @Amtrak Next-gen Acela for the first time. A few notes: 1. It's 2025 and the US population is not getting any smaller. Making the seats notably narrower than on the existing NE Regional was a... bold move. 2. I've had more comfortable stadium seating. The seats have a hard

@elonmusk @repligate Elon, you spotted $OPUS early. Now even Grok seems ready to invest. When both human intuition and AI reasoning converge on the same token ; that’s not luck, that’s signal ;)

The DC #noKings was tame by comparison.

I hope cops never change...
Really amazing security is having your UN/PW taped on a sticky note taped to the public-facing side of your device as you're out recording protesters.

It's my understanding @DoorDash is already losing money on every order anyway. Whatever the customer acquisition cost is, they've got to be burning through customers who are like "never again." I'm pretty close myself. The frustration just isn't worth it.

You are kind to strangers on the internet and you think you we don’t notice. You are generous and empathetic, but you don’t do it for others, you do it for you. And perhaps you think we don’t notice. We do. Thank you.

What they said.
I've got students messaging me asking if cybersecurity is still a "safe" field to go into because of the advancements of AI Dawg, our career value has fucking EXPLODED. Are you fuckin' with me right now? - AI vibe coded slop as far as the eye can see - AI deep fakes as far as
