Is the new "Rules" package the same as 3 weeks ago? Nope. Per Punchbowl news:
There’s also a secret three-page addendum that McCarthy and his allies hashed out during... grueling negotiations with the House Freedom Caucus... pact includes the worst concessions McCarthy made in order to become speaker.

A billionaire not paying workers should have a specific name, like "Code Orange" in honor of The Orange One on the anniversary of his Insurrection Day:

Twitter Promised Them Severance. They Got Nothing

Staff laid off by Elon Musk were assured they would be compensated following mass cuts. As the deadline passes, the silence has been deafening.

Reading this humbling book called "The Smartest Person in the Room" by Christian Espinosa. If you're in #cybersecurity especially a manager/director, you should read this book with an #OpenMind and #ZeroEgo. Wanted to share a snippet with you about maximizing #RiskReduction without a 100-item check list. #KeepITSimple #MakeITSecure #ZeroEgo 
@ClaireLamman Excellent!
@georgetakei Dude, you nailed it!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Fission is in the news, but few recognize that a woman physicist was behind the discovery.

Lise Meitner’s brilliance led to the discovery of nuclear fission. But her long time collaborator Otto Hahn, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry w/o her in 1944, even though she had given the first theoretical explanation.

Albert Einstein called Meitner “our Marie Curie." She also adamantly refused to work on the atomic bomb during WWII. https://www.aps.org/publications/apsnews/201502/physicshistory.cfm #women #history #science #HistoryRemix

February 11, 1939: Meitner/Frisch paper on nuclear fission

The Washington Post is the newspaper most likely to try stuff and I'm delighted that @jeremybowers says they're spinning up a Mastodon instance as we speak. Bravo.

Any pundit who is criticizing Pres. Zelenskyy's attire is failing to read the room, but moreover, they're just completely missing the point.

A country and its leader under immediate and existential threats have no time for suits and neckties.

He has no visible rank or medals or nametapes or epaulets or brass buttons or starched creases. He's wearing what women and men who are fighting on the frontlines in Ukraine are wearing.

He's wearing the urgency of the moment.

That's the point.
