This must be what it was like to go from machine code to fortran in the late 1950s. Early 2000s felt like a similar vibe with scripting langs, the web, and tooling changes. Kinda incredible.
The factory tint settings are always too high.
Toni is a wonderfully thoughtful and insightful exec, who has shown that you can build a real business around open software. Finding someone who can execute and who understands the vision of an open protocol at the same time is rareβToni gets it. I'm excited to see what Toni and Jay build together.
Congrats Toni. Really excited to see you involved and taking the helm for a while. Best of luck.
I'm thrilled to announce that I'll be joining Bluesky as interim CEO. I deeply believe in what this team has built and the open social web they're fighting for. More here: toni.org/2026/03/09/c...
It's been 65 days since Donald Trump invaded a sovereign state, abducted its leader, and declared the US will "run" the state indefinitely
It's been 9 days since Trump launched a war (his word) against Iran without congressional approval
No House member has filed articles of impeachment for either
It's kinda unreal going from "I could make a prototype of this in 2 weeks which isn't worth it " to "I made a prototype in two hours, here it is, and let's see what the real data and interaction looks like ".
We are in the middle of a seismic shift in software development and itβs clear there will be winners & losers as AI agents transform our industry.
Hey I did a fun thing with @warren.senate.gov about breaking up giant healthcare conglomerates
nyt website currently resembles one of those mock covers people made before 2016 election: economy floundering, war in the middle east, scandal-plagued cabinet sec, brazen corruption....
"So if Maralago was bombed you would not consider that to be an act of war?"
BREAKING: Trump was just asked if Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home: βI guessβ¦ Like I said, some people will die.β
This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

I've been mulling language Dems could adopt to basically say Trump will have to personally pay for the illegal things he did w/o authorization, and once he's broke, his trillionaire friends will have to do it.
Eg, Trump will be fined for rebuilding the White House after the damage he did.
Well, this should be a record-breaking day nokings.org

Anthropic: We lost a contract because we refuse to build Skynet.
OpenAI: We'll do it
This is such great marketing for Anthropic.
the 'restrictions' are worth stating explicitly. Anthropic doesn't want its AI to be used to make decisions about whether to kill someone without some human oversight. Hegseth says he won't accept that restriction.
Tax cuts for giant corporations and the super rich.
Paid for by cuts to the social safety net for everyone else.

When you put it like this, a $75 million bribe to Melania and gutting the Washington Post seems like a small price to pay.
