Suburban man retreats to safe space.

On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park.

New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.

In a draft for a potential public-fundraising message, Clara appears to confirm certain details of this reporting. “Everything started the day before when they arrested my partner, the father of my three-month old son, while he was driving to work,” reads Clara’s draft, sent by her attorney, Andrew Lattarulo, to Rolling Stone on Tuesday afternoon. Rolling Stone has not yet independently verified some of the claims. The draft continues: “He committed no crimes or offenses against anybody. His only mistake was honking at a car that cut him off. The car ended up being an undercover ICE vehicle and they decided to arrest him over this. Later that morning, ICE agents showed up and knocked on my door to return my partner’s car and to also tell me to show up on the next day to sign some documents at an immigration building. I left my home the next morning to do so, and took my 17-year-old sister along. This is when ICE stopped my car and said I was under arrest, but since I was with my baby somebody else needed to be there to take him. So I called my mother to come over and take my son for me, and then the immigration agents wanted to arrest her as well. By now the neighborhood started to take notice of the situation and were filming it with their phones … I am currently staying with friends, as I am too afraid to return home. I am unable to retrieve any of mine and my baby’s things and I am unable to work because of my current predicament.”

Wait, it gets even WORSE. ICE was interested in this family because an agent wanted retribution against the father of the baby, who apparently had honked at the care of an undercover ICE agent the day before who had cut him off.

Don't count your quiet engineers out. I have a quiet engineer that always does a great job getting their work done, but through talking to people in & outside of my team, I've learned they do waaaay more work than I ever realized. Quiet storm 💜

Quiet people, don't be afraid to talk about your work!

Big Dachau energy right here

To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

Tessa's heart. A tweet of her agreeably replying to someone agreeing with her anti-trans post.

This still you?

i'm tired of being told to stop doomscrolling. i'm just scrolling, it's not my fault there's doom on there

I'd genuinely like someone to show me on the doll where the "national security concern" is aside from vague Sinophobia 'cause otherwise it's still vibes based but the political elite rather than the internet public.

You're holding it wrong

I'm definitely on the Talos train in theory. Not sure how to do a microk8s to Talos migration as microk8s doesn't use etcd so I don't know how I'd add the Talos node to the existing cluster.

I was thinking about moving a few nodes to Talos. Please let us know how it goes!

Not once have they mentioned hiring a lawyer. We're absolutely cooked.

The most incredible AI thing I've seen is an ex-colleague building a startup that lets you to apply for citizenship in countries you may not know you're eligible for. They're documenting the journey and are breathless about how AI is building it for them.

Sure do but it's clearly not functioning in the interest of anyone but capital at this point so what else can be done?

This is a wild take. At some point we can't just accept "I was just taking orders" or "the profit motive drove me to set policy that killed or fucked over millions" as a moral choice worthy of the privilege of continuing to live.

Data showing the top 16% of remote workers outperform the top 5% in-office, while the bottom 12% underperform the bottom 5% in-office, makes sense.

Top performers thrive with extra time from no commute, but underperformers struggle without oversight. RTO penalizes top talent for others’ inability.

What an unbelievable match! #COYS
