Over the past year, every single time one of the apps or services I use suddenly became less reliable and more buggy, I never have to look far for the "Claude is amazing and now writes most of my code" post for the devs involved.

There's been a lot of debate within the Democratic establishment about what rhetoric to use via ICE.

Well, an incumbent doesn't lose by 48 percentage points very oftenβ€”and her vote on collaborating with ICE was the defining issue here.

Madison Curry has become a top defender by trusting her gut The defender talks to Ride of the Valkyries about her unique journey to Seattle Reign and how she trusts her gut when making big decisions.

At 15 years old, Madison Curry spent 30 seconds on Princeton's campus and knew it was where she'd spend her college career.

That same instinct also carried her to Seattle Reign last season.

Trusting her gut has worked out well so far.

it took an expensive, coordinated effort & a lot of people saying β€œthis doesn’t matter” to get from a bathroom ban costing one state $400 million & a gubernatorial race to β€œtrans people must turn in their documents which become invalid in a few hours or face fines & potential jail time” in 10 years.

she's right, and even more reason why any of those giggly ass male hockey players should've addressed it directly instead of having one of their moms go on a morning show to tell everyone that they're good boys

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

Starting to see this on Instagram as well, so it’s definitely spreading and being included in commentary as if it’s a real video.

The bar was so low for these guys. The gentlest course correction towards being proud of the women's team β€” not even actual pushback as would be actually appropriate β€” and they'd have been hailed by most as heroes (even with the Kash Patel of it all)

It's Official: the Cybertruck is More Explosive than the Ford Pinto - FuelArc News We now have a full year of data for the Cybertruck, and a strange preponderance of headlines about Cybertrucks exploding into flames, including several fatalities. That’s more than enough data to comp...

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.

Seattle’s Unity Loop to open ahead of 2026 World Cup SeattleFWC26 CEO Peter Tomozawa announced that the 4.25-mile Unity Loop, a walking trail from Lumen Field to Seattle Center and back, will open to pedestrians before the 2026 World Cup in Seattle.

If, like me, you’re seeing this Seattle 2026 Fan Fest news and wondering β€œwhat the hell is the Unity Loop”, it was apparently announced 16 months ago to basically no fanfare as a fancy walking path between Lumen Field and the Seattle Center www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/202...
