Not a good look. If I wanted to, I could let the FBI have my email information with Gmail for free.
It's the pound of sugar and cream they put in by default that makes Dunkin in Boston so good.
Uh, sir, I think you mean World Major Combat Operation 3!
I created a deep dive into Amazon SNS (Simple Notification Service) and sample app for handling both application-to-application (notifying another AWS/https service) and application-to-person (SMS, email, etc) messaging. blog.localstack.cloud/aws-deep-div...
After mentioning four dead US servicemen Trump starts talking about his ballroom.
In a competitive field, this may be one of the most offensive things he has ever done.
“.. This is simply attempted corporate murder,” Ball wrote. “I could not possibly recommend investing in American AI to any investor; I could not possibly recommend starting an AI company in the United States.”

"They're all that's left." Given the right-wing tilt of the billionaire takeover of the media this is a, perhaps unintentional, pun.
Or — hear me out — they were lying then *and* they are lying now.
An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump. n.pr/4qTItsU
The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold.
The Cybertruck may be the deadliest road car, for the occupants, ever sold.

Accurate.
The Dow showing 50k+ on Feb 11 and declining since.
A slightly hilarious aspect of Pam Bondi's now infamous Dow 50k quote is that Feb 11, the date of her testimony, is literally the last time that the Dow was at 50k.
We're still in the thick of it here. No point in shoveling yet as the winds are still whipping and snow is still falling. 🥶
There are a lot of terrible Trump judges but Cannon wants you to remember that she may be the worst.
Snow literally covering everything outside my home in Boston
My morning view in Boston. Still snowing with wind gusts of about 30-40mph. Had to go clear a path for the poor pups 🐶

A close second for me is "Torch" by The Psychedelic Furs. youtu.be/xIH8b9Z638c?...
Some days you just need a good, sad song and, for me, "Song for Zula" is one of the greatest of all time. What's yours? youtu.be/ZPxQYhGpdvg?...
The political effects of X's feed algorithm https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-026-10098-2 Received: 16 December 2024 Accepted: 4 January 2026 Published online: 18 February 2026 Open access • Check for updates Germain Gauthier,5, Roland Hodler?5, Philine Widmer35 & Ekaterina Zhuravskaya3,4,5 m Feed algorithms are widely suspected to influence political attitudes. However, previous evidence from switching off the algorithm on Meta platforms found no political effects'. Here we present results from a 2023 field experiment on Elon Musk's platform X shedding light on this puzzle. We assigned active US-based users randomly to either an algorithmic or a chronological feed for 7 weeks, measuring political attitudes and online behaviour. Switching from a chronological to an algorithmic feed increased engagement and shifted political opinion towards more conservative positions, particularly regarding policy priorities, perceptions of criminal investigations into Donald Trump and views on the war in Ukraine. In contrast, switching from the algorithmic to the chronological feed had no comparable effects. Neither switching the algorithm on nor switching it off significantly affected affective polarization or self-reported partisanship. To investigate the mechanism, we analysed users' feed content and behaviour. We found that the algorithm promotes conservative content and demotes posts by traditional media. Exposure to algorithmic content leads users to follow conservative political activist accounts, which they continue to follow even after switching off the algorithm, helping explain the asymmetry in effects. These results suggest that initial exposure to X's algorithm has persistent effects on users' current political attitudes and account-following behaviour, even in the absence of a detectable effect on partisanship.
A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right.
Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement.
This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.

Fellows Dems, it is time make @bsky.app our primary social media link and posting place and leave X behind.
It is time now.

Big fan of Astro too. I use it for all my web projects.
There are reports that ICE was at South Station in Boston, taking photos of everyone coming off the trains.
Photos. Of everyone.
When we get rid of this administration, we must also insist on destroying whatever sinister database these fucks are feeding.
cool, cool. so we are sort of like citizens, but not really?
Of the 52 million jobs created in America since 1989, 51 million, 97%, have been created under Dem Presidents. Essentially all of them. 4/
