Saagar JhaAchievement unlocked: felt an earthquake before either USGS or Twitter knew about it
Qasim Rashid, Esq.The Big Three automakers taking tens of billions in auto bailouts fully funded by taxpayers—and now refusing to share the resulting record profits with workers—is the epitome of what's wrong with our economy.
Socialism for the wealthy. Rugged individualism for workers. Absurd.
Ken WhiteWe've recorded the SECOND SERIOUS TROUBLE EPISODE IN TWO DAYS, with guest Georgia attorney Andrew Fleischman, about the Georgia RICO indictment. Watch for it tonight!
Dan GillmorThe BBC's experiment with Mastodon is pathbreaking in English-language news -- a major organization setting up its own instance. They've really thought this through. Key language:
"We're using social.bbc as the domain, so you can be sure these accounts are genuinely from the BBC. And by linking to and from the BBC’s website, we have verified our identity on Mastodon."

Ben SandofskySome personal news: after 14 years, I’m leaving the Bay Area. Some of my favorite shots over the years…
As always, Mac binaries are on GitHub: https://github.com/saagarjha/unxip/releases/tag/v2.2. If you’re itching to try it out on your beefy Linux machine, it’s easy to build from source using a recent Swift toolchain. I’m still working details out but ideally I’ll have some package manager instructions soon.
Robert ReichToday is the very last of my weekly “Wealth and Poverty” classes — not just the last class of this course, but my last class teaching any course now that I'm retired.
Even if you haven’t had a chance to keep up with all the others, please join this one. https://bit.ly/3D4HMWY
My last “Wealth and Poverty” class! Forever! :(
Today is the very last of my weekly “Wealth and Poverty” classes — not just the last class of this course, but my last class teaching any course. I’m going to be retiring from teaching now. So this last class is quite special to me, and I hope it will be special to you. Even if you haven’t had a chance to keep up with all the others, please join this one.
Eryn WellsNot unsympathetic to the plight of a human trapped in a small capsule at the bottom of the ocean — that’s some serious nightmare fuel right there — but why can we not muster this level of wall-to-wall coverage for trans people being forced from their homes due to do bigoted healthcare restrictions, or migrants dying in the desert looking for better lives, or the inaction of the US government on rampant gun violence.
Nolan O'BrienOK, wow...
I have a meeting going on my MacBook Pro (just watching) and am working on my Mac Studio next to it.
I happened to drag my mouse over and it ended up on the laptop...and the keyboard works there too when the mouse is over there.
🖥️ + 💻
I knew I could do this with an iPad (sidecar) but I had no idea I could trivially use both my desktop and laptop at once 🤩
