American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Literally any reporter who treated this device seriously when it was so obviously stupid should be laughed out of any room they're in. Abominably stupid product, obviously silly, execution was worse than expected. A landmark moment for the AI bubble. The first of many to die
HP will acquire assets from Humane for $116M; Humane's Ai pin business will be wound down, and Humane's team, including its founders, will join HP (Brody Ford/Bloomberg)

If you're blowing a whistle, would you trust Bezos to protect your anonymity?
This is the thing. WIRED is doing great work. It’s also very easy to tell a plausible story for why WIRED is beating up the general-interest press on this story: there’s a constituency with very relevant information that doesn’t trust the NYT, Post or Politico, but trusts the tech press.
somebody who works for DOGE is talking to WIRED and I would guess that other pubs get their moles soon enough as well

Not an original thought but UHC Oxford is a fucking scam nightmare
I am trying to not get charged $250 out of pocket for a covered gastro appt for Crohn’s, so I need a referral from a PCP, which UHC assigned to me
I go to make the appt with said PCP and the office says that doctor doesn’t exist
