Just a quick update from the Twin Cities. (Please forgive the unsolicited message). THINGS ARE NOT BETTER IN MINNEAPOLIS. The media is mostly moving on, Trump is focused on other stuff, BUT NOTHING HAS CHANGED ON THE GROUND. More than 2,000 DHS thugs continue to roam the streets, abducting people 24/7, assaulting legal observers with impunity, and routinely denying 1st, 4th, and 5th amendment rights. Drones and helicopters are overhead every day. Hundreds and hundreds of terrified families have not left their homes since mid-December ... relying on the community to bring them food and help with rent and other necessities. (Those people are NOT violent drug cartel sex offending murderers, as DHS would tell you. Most are legal residents or citizens.)  If anything, things have just become more stressful and intractable (think trench warfare as a suitable metaphor): The resistance is better organized and numerous, but DHS has become more clever and better at disguise... and the county sheriff's office is increasingly supporting them . Do not let anyone tell you that Homans (the new person in charge of the occupation) is making anything better. Do not let anyone tell you that 700 ICE agents leaving the city has made much of a difference; the remaining force (again, ~2,000) is still larger than the entire city's police force (which is legally unable to do anything). Please call your congressional reps ... especially if there is any chance the administration might listen to them.

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Oh I don’t disagree. I’ve played many of them numerous times. I grew up on them. All I’m saying is Link’s Awakening has much less β€œextra” to do than BOTW. I struggle with them at (basically) the same price point. I still love them and don’t want a BOTW 3. At least a new world please. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

I don’t disagree with the sentiment here, but also feel the price point needs to be warranted. I have played a majority of the Zelda titles over the years and loved most of them. But most are over too quickly and then nothing. I can spend hours just fooling around in BOTW and it’s quite enjoyable.

Just saw a TV ad to β€œvote for no new tax on online gambling”. Frankly gambling is out of control anymore, tax the hell out of it. Maybe people will slow down.

I truly feel this fairly often. Like great you produced code that works, but you failed miserably at implementing or maintaining existing concepts of separation of concerns that are clearly present in existing code.

Any sense that we could go dev less is a bit terrifying right now.

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

Math has always come super easily for me. I don’t know, my brain gets it. With that, I have spent countless hours trying to help others (like my kids).

Never in my wildest dreams would I picture equations like this, yet it makes total sense. I absolutely love this and will use it to help others

Stephen Miller takes leading role in strikes on alleged Venezuelan drug boats Exclusive: Miller’s homeland security council has played a key part in coordinating operations, sources say

Reminder that Miller once asked an admiral β€œWhen a boat full of migrants is in int’l waters, they aren’t protected by the U.S. Constitution, right?” When admiral said that’s technically true, but int’l law still applied, Miller replied: β€œwhy can’t we use a Predator drone to obliterate that boat?”

2019 – 2024 – Repeated denials and discovery stonewalling
Through years of communications with the police, the plaintiffs and the court through the investigation and later the discovery process for the lawsuit, Tesla never mentioned that it had all the data that explained how Autopilot saw the crash, which everyone was seeking, sitting on its servers for years.

The facts are:

Tesla had the data on its servers within minutes of the crash
When the police sought the data, Tesla redirected them toward other data
When the police sought Tesla’s help in extracting it from the computer, Tesla falsely claimed it was β€œcorrupted”
Tesla invented an β€œauto-delete” feature that didn’t exist to try explain why it couldn’t originally find the data in the computer
When the plaintiffs asked for the data, Tesla said that it didn’t exist
Tesla only admitted to the existence of the data once presented with forensic evidence that it was created and transfered to its servers.

This whole story is insane. Tesla apparently did everything it could to avoid providing the data it had about its Autopilot crash. This is just a snippet and there's a lot more. electrek.co/2025/08/04/t...

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.

But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.

See you soon, NYC.
