Remember Insights from yesterday? We used Timescale to build it: collecting +10 billion records a day, up to +350 TB in a single database & counting. This is our company’s largest dogfooding effort ever. #PostgreSQL can scale. Learn how we did it: timescale.com/blog/how-we-sc…

This video by Apple is a true masterpiece. I come back to it every once in a while, and I still love it.

Pundits are out praising my father as a way of denouncing @snowden, @xychelsea, Assange, and modern whistleblowers by comparison. Daniel is on record vehemently rejecting praise of him used for this cynical purpose. Media, please at least mention that fact. --Michael E. 🧵⬇️

.@MaxBlumenthal & I were invited to @WebSummit, a tech-media conference in Portugal. They've now cancelled us, and make clear below that they bowed to pressure from those who oppose our journalism on the Ukraine proxy war. Our detractors can't refute us, so they silence us.

Web Summit has rescinded its invitation to Grayzone for Web Summit 2022 in Lisbon. Web Summit has always been a platform for rigorous debate. We have dedicated stages specifically for robust dialogue on contentious and defining issues of our time. 1/5

If you want to see how DC warps people, look at this behavior from Bernie's very-DC NatSec Advisor, @mattduss. He first heaped praise on the Ukraine letter. Then when House Progressives recanted and Bernie condemned it, he switched course: bashing it and blaming anti-war "NGOs":

Another incredible moment from @APDiploWriter. Matt asks Ned Price what the State Department sees as the difference between the Russian occupation of Ukraine and the Israeli occupation of Palestine. Their back-and-forth was lengthy, and other journalists doubled down on it after.

I had a great conversation with @sethharpesq about what he saw in Ukraine, why it's hard to get a clear picture of what's going on there, what he thinks US aims there are, and how things will likely play out. You can watch here or listen on @NonzeroPods. youtube.com/watch?v=CgDxtU…

My column explains what appears to be a stunning plan by the ultraconservative Supreme Court to lock in corporate control of the US government for generations. Might be the end of democracy as we know it. Feels like a slow-motion judicial coup. bit.ly/3SZbqTB

UK Foreign Office operative @rwdburley calls for YouTube to censor @TheGrayzoneNews, libeling us as "a Russian propaganda outfit." Besides spreading disinformation about The Grayzone, Burley mispronounces the name of @aaronjmate and appears to call for censoring @rustyrockets.

My @GitHub account was just suspended 🤷 Is writing an open source code illegal now?

Three Arrows Capital was one of the biggest crypto hedge funds, at one point managing over $10 billion in capital— Until the founders dropped off the map. A 1000-page legal document came out today, bringing clarity to the case. I went through it. This is what I found:

I never ask this, but I'm asking now: Please retweet this. Texas plans to kill Melissa Lucio in four days. Five jurors say evidence was withheld from them. A bipartisan majority of the Texas legislature favors clemency. Why are you waiting, @GovAbbott? nytimes.com/2022/04/22/us/…

the days of usenet, irc, the web...even email (w PGP)...were amazing. centralizing discovery and identity into corporations really damaged the internet. I realize I'm partially to blame, and regret it.

Hi my name is Charlie and #LongCovid has destroyed my life. Today is two years.  Before my 'mild infection' I was a healthy fit 30 year old biking 10 miles a day. Now I can't work or leave the house. I still can't breathe right. It‘s a nightmare. Here are my 4 questions:
