I try not to share too many screenshots from X. But sometimes I think it's important for folks to know who some people are.

Again, if we β€” and the politicians we elect β€” prioritized clean indoor air standards this would be less of a concern/health risk

I redirect everyone’s attention to JIM MACKAY, a book-banning, Great Replacement Theory-touting hard right-winger who *has changed his name* to J. GORDON MITCHELL to run as a Democrat in Texas’ 17th Congressional district

It’s a little discouraging that the harshest punishment administered in the whole Epstein sex trafficking scandal is a spaghetti sauce getting the death penalty.

For those of you who grew up after 9/11, we got along just fine without a Department of Homeland Security for 212 years.

The DHS was formed to try to prevent future terror attacks β€” now, it is orchestrating them.

Okay look I'm glad they're ditching Flock but if the "city's network of surveillance cameras" can still be subpoenaed by out of state law enforcement for things like "did a woman come here to get an abortion from our state" then we shouldn't have them at all, period.

Meta Plans to Add Facial Recognition Technology to Its Smart Glasses

Meta's plan for launching glasses that people can use to secretly identify strangers on the street is to do it "during a dynamic political environment" when people who care about why that's bad are "focused on other concerns."

California changed its vaccine mandates to permit only medical exemptions in 2015; then required that medical exemptions be verified to shut down quacks.

Vaccination rates recovered promptly.

Most vaccine denialists who claim religious or personal objections are not actually committed to them.

The myth of the high-tech heist The film industry would have you believe that thieves have a boundless technological toolkit.

Longtime writer pal @jetjocko.bsky.social has penned a great short article for heist nerds over at the MIT newsletter.
