I wrote this on a mailing list as support for friends but figured I'd share more broadly:
Here are my 10 rules for these trying times
#MuppetShow!
That's it.
That's the whole post.
GO. WATCH.
Get off Blusky and enjoy it!
People complaining about an off color joke in the #MuppetShow. Wait 'til they rewatch old #LooneyTunes.

I remember going to an ECHO party when I first got to NY in 1993 and it was a pretty well established BBS and community by then.
It's fascinating to see the rewriting in real time. Even this 30th anniversary feels like a rewriting as many of us where there for a few years before then.
So #SpaceX is merging with #Xai . Next up #SpaceX and #Tesla will merge, I guess.

Greenland and Venezuela figutas big parts of the Risk board game.
The #DonroeDoctrine appears to be inspired by #Risk. The board game.

Translation of this New York Times headline for my French friends (or anyone familiar with French History):
Trump: "L'état, c'est moi"
The candidate who claimed he would not involve the US into any unnecessary conflicts is now the president involving the US into an unnecessary conflict.
The rest of the app, though, is pure madness (AI writing)... For a better alternative, try 750words.com which is more human focused.
The thin line between madness and genius exists and is wrapped in software:

The competitor to OpenAI and Google Gemini is not another company. It's a standard.
Thank you @egangoonsquad.bsky.social for organizing it and to Michael Cunningham, Hernan Diaz, Ginger Grace, James Hannaham, David Herskovits, Melissa Maxwell, Martha Southgate, Angela Vitale, and Stephanie Weeks for inspiring readings.
it was an astounding #FallOfFreedom event.
Thank you soooo much for organizing this. It restored my faith in our democracy and hopes for its future.
A four hours reading of the constitution will th explanations of the context within which each part was birthed by Michael Waldman (CEO of the @brennancenter.org) has solidified my belief that things will still turn out OK.
it was an astounding #FallOfFreedom event at the Center for Fiction.
Reminder: The internet was built to route around damage on a communication route. By centralizing on #cloudflare, #AWS, #Azure, and #GoogleCloud, we've removed the redundancy model that was core to the initial internet principles.

I'm heartbroken to share that my friend of 30 yrs, Arthur Phillip Delchi, @delchi.bsky.social, DJ Delchi, has left us.
A founding force behind DEF CON’s Hackers with Disabilities, a member of cDc Ninja Strike Force, a L0pht regular who DJed our wildest parties (two of those moments captured below)
Well, here's how @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social could easily pay for all the free stuff.
I love NYC. Even more so tonight.
