UPDATE:
"Now, however, on the day that Kristi Noem got fired, her previous Department of Homeland Security appears to have changed its mind...The very map that just yesterday showed that a border wall between Big Bend’s Rio Grande canyons was “Planned,” now shows “Detection Technology” only.
No wall in Big Bend.
It's a magnificent place.
We spent holidays with our kids and friends there. My first rafting trip was with Bruce there. We took friends from around the world to show them the rugged beauty in Big Bend.

When Nathan Hessler asked if I wanted to give a keynote at @exmexconf.bsky.social I asked him if he meant to send the invite to @redrapids.bsky.social :) I was stunned he asked me - a non technical person who is always behind the scenes!!
Getting on stage @exmexconf.bsky.social to share these stories was such an honor and a delight.
Thank you Nathan Hessler for the opportunity!!

lots of poison ivy on my arm. Had a lovely day and got in the garden to clean up weeds and they hit back.
What is the point of the existence of poison ivy??
Good grief. They need to watch the movie

Woohoo!! Can't wait to be there!
In the concentration camp universe, this is what's known as a filtration camp. A government preemptively takes a whole class of people to interrogate and detain extrajudicially in order to inflict duress on them while arbitrarily assessing their (supposed) culpability.
Ah yes :) It's nuts right? Without limits is insane.
You see = and think assignment.
In Elixir, it’s pattern matching. You describe the shape you’re willing to accept. If it fits, names bind. If it doesn’t, the match fails — and that failure selects the path.

Right?? Sooo many places of failure. No, not saying they are the most trustworthy, but I'm still glad they are finding a line on this one.
Goodness.
Grateful for Anthropic's stand on this.
Offloading any life/death stuff from humans to machines seems like a bad bad deal.
Since October, federal courts have ruled more than 4,400 times that ICE is illegally jailing immigrants.
Now the agency wants to spend $38B to turn warehouses across the country into detention camps.
Remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison companies running these camps.
We are very excited to be in Vancouver for #codeBEAM!
Bruce’s @groxio.bsky.social AI course has been one of the most fun for me to edit because of the way he manages the agent.
Join him in person in Vancouver for a MasterClass and come away with better skills and understanding!
They are all good boys but we’ll let yeti have the win today @maggietate.bsky.social
EEEK!! that's so very fun!
thanks 😍
Commentary: A slate of bills in the Tennessee General Assembly is reshaping how immigration enforcement functions in Tennessee, largely without a single comprehensive public debate about authority, responsibility or risk, writes Brandon Burley, a retired detective and criminal justice educator.
Republicans are still trying to pass the SAVE Act—a bill that would make it harder to vote and disenfranchise millions of Americans. Join @redistrictingaction.org and tell your member of Congress to vote no: act.redistrictingaction.org/a/natl-saveact-cte
