Nice way to start the morning when you’re listening to the Vergecast on your morning commute and hear @reckless.bsky.social reference one of the comments you made on a story. I believe the phrase he used was “that’s like a great Vergecast quote.” 😊

FWIW, just Googling his name didn't work for me. But if you click on this link it will redirect to the offending link.

Just when I thought it was safe to give AI another try... seriously, I don't think this is a difficult computer science problem. And what's with all the smileys?

If not for birthright citizenship, how many "Americans" would not be citizens today? Both my parents were born to immigrants or children of immigrants and would not have had citizenship passed to them. Based on that, I wouldn't be a citizen. It's crazy to think about.

I’ve done a pretty good job excising politics from my social media feeds. The best way to do this is to use the algorithms to your advantage. Don’t engage with political posts, do engage with content you want to see. Now my feeds mainly show me:

- Writers
- Hikers
- Boaters

These are my people. ☺️
