Trump is the wrong answer to the right questions
The US president has an uncanny ability to spot the faultlines in the old order and manipulate them to his advantage

It's not clear to me at all that Donald Trump is "mad" or suffering from dementia (as people have suggested recently). Instead Newsom's "he's very intentional, but he's unmoored" sounds like a plausible explanation for e.g. Greenland. He's not bound by any norms, and is extremely narcissistic.

as a black comedy, someone should write a version of WWI leadup that has social media. Don't bother about incongruity of fitting 21st century social media tech into early 1900s. Just imagine what it would have been like

Zelensky thanked crews restoring power after Russian strikes, noting over 1,300 drones hit Ukraine this week. He urged allies to send more air defense missiles, saying the world must act decisively as Russia prolongs the war. #UkraineWar

Git is great at telling you what changed.It’s getting worse at telling you why.When code is regenerable, version control has to move upstream to intent, plans, and provenance.

Final thought. This is all both frightening and depressing. But although addressing these problems will be very difficult and, in many cases, very costly, it can be done. I think Europe is in a better place on these issues than it was a year ago; I’m optimistic that can continue.

Zij twittert dat en vervolgens post een journalist/propagandist van de Russische Staatsmedia dit bericht. Ik denk dat het goed is om ons bewust te zijn van de haat en leugens die door extreem rechts worden verspreid en vervolgens door Rusland worden versterkt in aanval op een verenigd Europa.
