Saw a Waymo in the mill district this morning. It didn’t crash into the car in front of it. Kind of a win.
Re Waymo in MN--idk what will happen at session in 2026, but if you are opposed to Waymo, it's gonna be a legislative fight.
Why Waymo is hiring lobbyists in Minnesota
A change in law would be needed to launch its driverless robotaxis here.

My Cousin Vinny is on and I love the movie, but it’s not an inspirational underdog story, it’s an American horror film. The sheriff, the prosecutor, the public defender, the judge, and the witnesses are acting in good faith, and yet two actually innocent youts, almost go to the electric chair. Yikes

Concoct sounds plausible.
Kevin Hassett on the October jobs report: "We'll maybe be able to concoct something, but we'll never actually know for sure what the unemployment rate was in October."

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

Some rando LLC is trying to build a huge data center in Hermantown, which just up the hill from Duluth.

Most people are reasonably smart and competent within some narrow domain - usually relating to their job or family - and completely clueless and malleable outside of it. One of the reasons social media is so bad.
Again, when I worked at Popular Science one of the most popular stories was 10 ways you can tell for yourself the earth is round.
"go to TikTok. See for yourself."
