As far as I'm aware, the first documented spike in data leaving an agency after DOGE infiltration. Extensive forensic evidence.

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

the Tesla protests bring me such joy

it’s so straightforward, it’s available in so many locations, it has a material effect on a primary culprit, the company is suffering, it’s helping normalize a new narrative where this is a brand you should feel embarassed about supporting, and it’s VISIBLE

Is there an easy way to invest in "VTSAX minus TSLA"? If a lot of people started doing that it would really leave a mark.

Super long-shot, but...does anyone here know what per-hour risk threshold was used in developing the clean airflow rates in ASHRAE 241? I understand they constructed a probabilistic model and ran simulations, but I haven't been able to track down the details of the model or decision-making process.

Is there any way in which vrbo is not just a drop-in replacement for airbnb, for both hosts and guests? I know where I'll be booking from now on.

Seattle friends, if you care about public schools this podcast is well worth your time!

This has been a fun exchange to follow. I especially liked seeing the goals/values of different protocols expressed so clearly.
Three weeks ago I wrote "How decentralized is Bluesky really?" dustycloud.org/blog/how-dec...

Shortly thereafter, @bnewbold.net wrote his response: whtwnd.com/bnewbold.net...

I have written my (final) response blogpost: dustycloud.org/blog/re-re-b...

And as last time, 🧵. Buckle up.

@bsky.app I know you have a premium service Coming Soon, and I’d like to share a list of the premium features I’d most enjoy:

1. The ability to pay money for this app.

That’s it. That’s the list!

One of Bluesky's stated goals is Algorithmic Choice. Suppose I decided that I really like Twitter's algorithm (heretical, I know, but humor me) and wanted to build it here and offer it as a custom Feed for interested users – could it be done?

This was a fantastic read. Great overview of key technical & philosophical differences in various decentralized social protocols, along with some nice historical context. As a curious newcomer to this space, this kind of writing is a treat.
Wrote a little post about Nostr and ATProto:

It shouldn't have taken this long, but I really cannot support Musk's Twitter anymore so here I am looking for a new platform. Bluesky seems to have more energy than last time I checked in!

Looking to follow folks in machine learning, public health, and politics.
