A strong and principled response by WilmerHale to the illegal Executive Order attack - a form of attempted government intimidation declared unconstitutional by a federal judge.

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Concerns about the (a) new website UGA just rolled out; (b) unceremonious removal of SLIG’s Director, triggering a series of SLIG staff resignations; and (c) overall future of SLIG should be emailed to the entire UGA Board—not just one person. Don’t rely on social media pages (admins remove posts).

I'm having a "Judy Russell week." 👍 It's my third day crawling through 205 pages of Scottish court documents (single case, spanning 1815-1818) while researching every legal term and process involved. Gotta love it!

If the election underscored anything about the internet, it was how far social media platforms had moved to the right. The change was an unintended consequence of a series of decisions made by some of the biggest social platforms nearly four years ago.

One of Trump's biggest promises was to address the rising cost of living. But will he do anything to challenge the main source of high prices — corporations who have gobbled up their competitors and now have enough market power to keep prices high even as their costs have dropped? Of course not.
