@michaelhobbes.bsky.social Listening to the In Covid’s wake episode, I’m still mad that Google/Apple built privacy first Covid contact tracing into every smartphone, but no states put any effort into getting people to use it.

There’s a (cringy) webcomic explaining it: ncase.me/contact-trac...

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Some thoughts on Justice Roberts' year end report. It is - par for the course for him - totally tone deaf. But we are all, to varying degrees complicit in spreading the fiction that the judicial branch isn't just as political as any other part of government. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/31/u...
Chief Justice Roberts Condemns Threats to Supreme Court and Judiciary
In his year-end report on the federal judiciary, the chief justice decried violence, intimidation and disinformation and warned against defiance of court rulings.

Got my wife the ember mug for Christmas and she loves it! But of course they had to go and use some bullshit barrel plug. You're telling me you couldn't make use of a common 20V USBC PD voltage, and instead need 19V ??

The EU was right.

Being Governor of Illinois is one of the great honors of my life — and one of my favorite parts is getting to talk with Illinoisans about the work we're doing to get big things done.

I'm excited to officially launch my account here and share updates with you all.
