Bruce Schneier has a good high-level look at threat-modeling under an authoritarian government. Alas, it’s not amenable to a simple recipe approach, but involves carefully thinking through the tradeoffs […]

The grimmest realization is not the very old one that Trump is a hyper-sensitive narcissist who thinks criticizing him should be illegal.

The grimmest realization is that a substantial number of Americans are born serfs, best suited for a monarchy, who thinks that’s manly and admirable and right.
Trump at the DOJ: "I believe that CNN and MSNDC, who literally write 97.6% bad about me, are political arms of the Democrat Party. And in my opinion, they are really corrupt and they are illegal. What they do is illegal."

Something else I’m feeling really good about right now is the amount of my life I spent painstakingly implementing rigid gov security requirements that made Word crawl, and now we just let uncleared 24 year olds with Xbox gamertags install code and remote access apparently.

I never "radicalized." I'm simply a Canadian whose idea of the social contract remained unchanged while America dragged the Overton Window to the right.

When the Overton Window moves, it doesn't stretch. Thus, while previously unthinkable ideas become acceptable to explore, others shift to […]

Imagine a movie where a man goes on a crime spree, is caught and is on trial for some crimes and convicted of others, and the only way to avoid prison is to be elected President of the United States.
