Back in April, @bcantrill.bsky.social and I talked to Andres Freund on the @oxide.computer podcast to discuss the xz fiasco; over on Mastodon I described making the image, and since its starting to be used without attribution, I thought I'd talk about it here... share.transistor.fm/s/e2538f7d
On Monday, OxF hosted @oxide.computer founders, @sdtuck.bsky.social and @bcantrill.bsky.social, Oxide investor Seth Winterroth, and the authors of Founder vs. Investor, Liz Zalman and @ganeumann.bsky.social. Delved into best and worst investor behavior. Check it out!

Democrat Abigail Spanberger was elected governor of Virginia, the first woman to hold the office.
The race, one of only two gubernatorial contests this year with New Jersey’s, offered Democrats a test ground for rebuilding ahead of the 2026 midterms.

RAJU: Last week you were very critical of Biden's use of the autopen. But Trump admitted on 60 Minutes to not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire who pleaded guilty to money laundering. Does that also concern you?
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that. I didn't see it. I'm not sure.
