This woman, US citizen living in Skokie, was detained at Ohare yesterday, taken to Broadview, then transferred to a detention facility in Wisconsin, now released. We know all this not because of DHS, who repeatedly denied that they even had her, but because her phone was pinging in those locations.
Somehow this didn’t post this morning. Happy 189th birthday to Chicago.

Software is created for accumulation of knowledge. AI is not going to cancel this fact. Forgot the idea that programs will be prompts (specifications). The details is what really matters, and they are hard to capture textually than in the code. New projects will be spec + code, evolving.
Prompt: What brand of food are best.
The "best" food brands are highly subjective—they depend on what you're prioritizing: taste, quality ingredients, health/nutrition, value for money, sustainability, innovation, or just pure popularity/enjoyment. There's no single universal ranking, but based on recent consumer data, taste tests, sales trends, and expert reviews (as of early 2026), here's a breakdown of standout brands across key categories. Highly Popular & Well-Loved Everyday Brands (High Fame + Positive Opinion) These consistently top U.S. consumer polls for broad appeal and positive sentiment (e.g., from YouGov-style rankings): Heinz (especially ketchup) — Often seen as the gold standard for condiments. M&M's, Kit Kat, Snickers, Hershey's — Dominant in chocolate/candy. Lay's and Tostitos — Go-to for chips and snacks.
Realfood.gov's AI just told me to go eat Snickers and Tostitos.
