📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms).

PSA: we're aware that Signal is down for some people. This appears to be related to a major AWS outage. Stand by.

When does the @mbta start handing out hard hats? A nice chunk of ceiling fell in the tunnel between Park st and Downtown Crossing. Nothing like the ones that have come down in Harvard Sq station but it was still enough to have caused some decent damage to one’s head.

A little throw back to June of 2022. BU was finishing up on the Duan Family Center for Computing & Data Sciences

They largely want the studios & sports and don’t care about the news org. In fact, they would love it gone. Why? Because rich men, especially tech men, think they deserve no criticism and also need constant fluffing. They value a mirrortocracy over a meritocracy and welcome a mediocrity.

The cruelty is the point: ICE releases woman it had locked up for 10 days by shoving her out the door of its Burlington hole in the pouring rain, with no phone, 30 miles from home; she walked over to the Burlington Mall and begged for help at the Cheesecake Factory. www.masslive.com/news/2025/08...
ICE released this Mass. mom with no phone, 30 miles from home in the rain after detainment for a sealed marijuana conviction
Federal authorities refused to tell the Canton woman's husband or lawyer on what grounds she was being detained until shortly before her release.
