SoftBank’s investor presentation is one of the greatest things ever made. I’ve been thinking about it all day. These are the real slides shown in a speech where Masayoshi Son said he wouldn’t retire for at least another decade. The goose stuff is truly demented. Bravo

Both sets of dialog data are the results of source work by me, this is just currently not noted anywhere for the more detailed dataset because i forgot to ever confirm that on the record. I just wanted this to be clear because some people appear to be confused.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

Y'all see what time it is?
The DOJ is not investigating ICE agent Jonathan Ross for the fatal shooting of Renee Good, a top official said Sunday.
The top DOJ official confirmed that an investigation is underway into Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey.

I helped build a government AI system. DOGE fired me, rolled the AI out to the whole agency, and implied the AI can do my job and the jobs of the others they've fired.
It can't. But, what DOGE accidentally revealed about themselves in the process is fascinating. 🧵

This is a very important article pulling together a fact pattern: people taking domestic flights ending up detained bc ICE, bc while they had pending legal immigration applications ICE alleged they were out of status.
In some cases that seems correct — eg visa overstay — in others less clear.

I've tried multiple times to record a Common Sense show about what we are living through. I run into the same issue every time. It's not Trump...it's those who like him and what he's doing. I try to be a "solutions person",but I don't know what to do about THAT.It stops my recording cold every time.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

Government’s wins are often invisible: Systems that avoid plane crashes; alliances that avert war; surveillance that prevent pandemics.
Government wins are often *the avoidance of loss.*
So how do we tell the story of the destruction of government? The story of future losses *not* averted?
