There actually has not been enough reflection in the tech community about DOGE

Yeah this whole thing was baffling and infuriating

“If you think the assault on higher education is about anti-semitism, or that the purge of the federal government is about DEI, or that taking over Democratic cities is about crime, you are helping perpetuate Trump’s rationales for undermining democracy.”

“Democracy is the ultimate decentralized technology. It distributes power away from kings and aristocrats to the people—imperfectly, through struggle, but fundamentally. The early internet promised to do the same for information, communication, and commerce.” — great read

Thanks for the summary. FYI it looks like the Wedgwood image is showing Madrona instead

To quote one of my favorite KEXP djs, “You are not alone.” Unrelated I was hoping there was a Ready Room episode recapping the SNW holodeck episode with you sharing your passion for all things Trek that was referenced.

I just wanted to say, I’m probably more proud of this Ted talk than just about anything I’ve ever done so I’m gonna be absolutely useless for the next couple of weeks as I promote the shit out of this because I want you to watch it because it matters in the moment we are in youtu.be/dVG8W-0p6vg

Great 🧵

I know I’ve said a thousand times, but platform economics made customer satisfaction irrelevant to business performance. That made everyday life coarser and meaner. Degraded a lot of our civic life.

Sorry you went through that. Just did some searching and the County has info on all this and how to report kingcounty.gov/en/dept/sher...

I don’t listen to many podcasts but this one is incredible. I’m a fan of both of their work so it was great to hear them together.

Nazi, yes. I also think it is fair to say un-American.

I prefer the Prime timeline but you got me watching it again too (thank you it is good)

Embrace immigrants. Celebrate diversity. Fight for equality and commit yourself to serving the needs of those with needs.

Be real. Be empathic. Be human.

That’s a recipe for Democratic success. Not whatever it is that the party has been doing recently.

Diego Luna is hosting Kimmel for a bit and is talking about the importance of immigrants. It’s good to have friends everywhere youtu.be/7726WoO7mTM

Nothing says freedom like a war on summer

“The real crime was compassion. The real crime was noticing and caring and wanting to make it right.” — these sentences hit so hard and explain so much about where we are today.

This is another important history lesson that we need to heed!

Land of Hope & Dreams EP | Bruce Springsteen On May 14, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band opened their Land of Hope & Dreams Tour in Manchester, England. Highlights from that first night are now available digitally as the “Land of Hope & D...

Probably been said but this seems to be a boss move to release this EP right now brucespringsteen.net/news/2025/la...

I said it would get worse very quickly. By tomorrow we will have completed the most dangerous & frightening 24 hours thus far of Trump 2.0. Just to name a few:
1. Defiance of a court order by sending migrants to Sudan without due process (despite clear DP decision SCOTUS) & Dist. CT. order.

Gini coefficient … darn auto correct

Yes, and it’d be interesting to see what a Gino coefficient model could look like at a state or local level
