After nearly three decades, a Minnesota summer camp for kids with HIV/AIDS is closing and up for sale... because retroviral drugs are so effective that there aren't enough campers.

Are there any American pilots in prison for something similar? Would we even know if there were? Genuinely curious.
A hero's welcome for Raghid Ahmed Al-Tatari, Syria's longest serving political prisoner. A former military pilot he was imprisoned by Hafez Al Assad in 1981 for refusing to bomb civilians in Hama. He was recently freed.

The worst part of the “AI revolution” is how much effort is being poured into making it as easy as possible to use these tools without having to understand what they do or how they work.

Not sure if I agree with, trust, or like this man…but at least he seems to be thinking creatively about different ways to solve problems and doing what he can to see if they work. Something to be said for that.
If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.

This story out of Montana is horrifying, outrage-inducing, and a reminder that @propublica.org may be the most important journalism organization in the country right now. Incredible work by @davidmcswane.bsky.social.

Recently at kid stuff when everyone says the pledge I’ve been replacing every fourth/fifth syllable with “fart” rather than make a big deal out of staying silent with arms by sides. The best part is no one can say anything to you without sounding crazy. You can just deny it.
