Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

The NYTimes have just put the mini crossword behind a paywall.

I cannot stress enough how stupid this decision is.

It's a 1-minute experience I am not paying for a monthly subscription to do it. I am just going to stop doing it.

The games app experience has been getting worse and worse tbh

@dancarlin.bsky.social Any chance you could recommend a few of your favourite books on history from your reading over the years?

So far I've read 'avengers of the new world' and 'children of ash and elm' after hearing them brought up in shows.

A super mario game but when you get to Bowser's castle it turns out all his pipework is lead-lined and when you price up a quote for him he says it'd be cheaper to just settle workers comp claims for the koopas who get sick

The way nobody can drive well anymore because of GPS — not just atrophied turn-by-turn navigation, but the way ppl no longer know the layouts of their town or the names of roads or what to do when the map doesn’t match the terrain — that’s what genAI is doing to communication skills and literacy

Highly recommend this book, Glorious Exploits. It's an incredibly charming read and manages to be both funny and profound without either feeling out of place

Social media algorithms have done an impressively good job of showing my heartbroken self the most depressing heart-wrenching content available.
Like walking into a blockbuster with puffy red eyes and the cashier immediately pulling out an already bagged up copy of 'The Notebook' for 50% off

The trouble with running is wherever you run to, there you are.

At first when I read this I thought it was a clever turn of phrase, but these days I think I understand

All I'm saying is 24 hrs ago there were an awful lot of smug people reporting the tush push ban would pass.

This is absolutely fucked and this judge is a clown for allowing it
We spoke to the woman who turned her dead brother into an AI avatar that testified at the sentencing hearing for his killer, and learned more about how the judge considered the AI statement

Really wild story and not sure this is a road we want to go down

Anyone else think this is a really weird way for the cardinals to select a new head coach?

Jfc

I know that she means they should be making lots of bold changes and acting quickly...
But would it have killed her to make that point a little more clearly so it didn't sound like she wants to start deporting 3 year olds?
Amazing. Yes, that’s definitely the message that has produced victories for centre-left parties over the last week
