After finding that my comprehension and retention improves with physical printed material, I have developed the weirdest anachronistic hybrid workflow wherein I collaborate with GenAI and then print it out in iterative stages to digest, review and mark up further. It feels dumb but it works 📝

The people now in charge of the Office of Personnel Management apparently don’t know how to scrub PDF metadata, and have exposed the original authors of the guidance they’re publishing. Two, Noah Peters and James Sherk, have links to the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.
