The reason his name is MarkWayne is so much less interesting than I was hoping.

I’m gonna try that one during tonight’s bedtime blowup.

This is one of the most awkward things I've ever watched.

My boyars, they’re very bad. Some of the worst boyars.

As I lay on the floor, in total defeat after an hour of trying to get my kid dressed, whimpering β€œI just need to you to go faster,” she patted my head and said β€œI love you, big boy.”

Very good thoughts on this from @maxread.info a few months ago: maxread.substack.com/p/will-ai-wr...

The reason LLM style is so mid is that was trained on a vast amount of mid writing created by humans!

It’s sort of notable that this rumor was floating around just as much last year and it didn’t come up at her confirmation hearing once. Same with RFK’s alleged extracurriculars.

One thing that doctors never do is tell you to eat better. Literally never comes up. Maybe RFK can also get them to finally tell you to exercise.

How Iran built such a formidable cyberwar machine Even as bombs fall across the Middle East, Iranian-linked hackers are launching digital attacks across the region. Decades of investment made that possible.

If you believe the US, Iran's military capabilities are basically now non-existent. But their cyberattack capacity could be harder to quell. My latest for @fastcompany.com looks at how they got so powerful - and ironically, it's due to past US intervention www.fastcompany.com/91502049/ira...

Do you understand the mental fortitude it takes to monitor all these situations while you’re also watching Encanto?

"The CIA conspired to make me less cool than I was when I was 25" is the most succinct Gen X manifesto I've ever heard

Saw a "I can't drive 55" bumper sticker today. You don't hear about that so much anymore.

This is not, I imagine, Steve’s intent but this is one of the most compelling cases for court packing you will read.

Separate from any DoD stuff, the average ChatGPT response also seems to have become unreadably eye-rolly. It’s like they’re reading the memes and leaning into it. It feels like every response somehow works its way to a β€œit’s not X, it’s Y” construction, no matter what the subject.

Still a pretty standard, non-fatal old person skin thing to happen.

100%. Also they can't actually admit that being 79 means things are just starting to fall apart.

Every time with his health things they could just go with "yeah, he's pretty old, shrug" and then they say the most suspicious thing in the world instead. www.cnn.com/2026/03/02/p...

Wonder if they'd trade 4-day work week for 100% RTO and no remote.

You would think of all people the biggest proponent of return-to-office would never ever tolerate a 4 day a week work culture.

I agree that we should have a better window into the president's health but also... have you people spent any time with a 79 year old? Their skin, it's not so great. Lotta skin stuff happening at that age that's not indicative of anything but being 79.

Now that we've set the precedent that the government can attempt to fully destroy any business unless it conforms to administration policy, the Ocasio-Cortez administrations plan to seize a mere 50.1% share of every key industry will seem downright moderate.

"No stupid rules of engagement" is how you shoot down three of your own F-15s in one day. Just a shocking display of martial ineptitude.

Life must be so fun if this stuff gets you. Cathedrals everywhere, etc.

Pretty slippery definitions of success and time scales but probably either the Russia invasion of Georgia or Nagorno-Karabakh, depending on how you want to count?
