Take a peek at the first page of The Dignity of Dependence!

Absolutely slain by the first page of @LeahLibresco’s new book. She puts to words the thoughts I have been meditating on as a residency physician with a focus on women’s health/infertility and as a new mother. Just wonderful.

Hamas clearly hoping they can reassert control over the Strip with a ceasefire in place despite the formal terms of the agreement.

BREAKING: Hamas militias are attacking and besieging the Dughmash clan in Gaza City. According to the family, Hamas is killing anyone bearing the family name “Dughmash,” and has already executed one person who was unarmed and not involved in the clashes.

Please share and pray urgently for my friend Grace’s father, Ezra Jin Mingri, who has been detained by the CCP for being a Christian. She is worried. She & her husband have two small children, who would love to be able to see their grandfather again. I can only imagine.

China’s religious persecution continues with reports of the arrest of the pastor of one of the largest underground churches in China and dozens of church leaders across the country. The Chinese Communist Party must release Pastor Ezra Jin Mingri and other Christian leaders…

This is one of the reasons it really matters whether or not doctors are allowed to proactively raise suicide with their patients rather than only discuss it if asked. @kimleadbeater has insisted that they must be allowed to do so, and that's what the Bill says.

One of the lowest points for my husband was that at every visit to his oncologist, she would tell him that he could take MAID whenever he chose. He felt like he was a bother and that she wasn’t willing to fight as hard as he was. That she had written him off.

Seems like they should be seizing cars long before the number of unpaid tickets gets into the six digits

This is a glitch in the display because when the DMV website was designed, they did not think they would need numbers beyond $99,999. They're trying to fix it now. But there is no "too big to fine" loophole.

I just moved in with my baby goddaughter. It's literally heaven. This morning I woke up to a gray, cloudy day & struggled to get out of bed. But then I heard her babbling in the living room. My body instantly sprung out of bed to see what she was up to. We played with a ball

Every week you babysit to give your two parent-friends a date night. But it's no chore: your goddaughter looks at you like this, and you see her take her first step, and lastly, as the evening grows late, she falls asleep on your belly, like this 8/

OOPS! UPDATE: Two HHS officials tell me that disease detectives, measles response officers, Ebola response officers, global health officials and MMWR staff were laid off by mistake and will be reinstated. But Washington staff is still RIFed.

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Dozens of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

Pray for us as we begin our Eucharistic Procession to the Broadview Detention Center—bringing Jesus to those detained, to the ICE officers, and to the protesters gathered outside. This is the Eucharistic Revival.

Today I met with PM @narendramodi to discuss Anthropic's expansion to India—where Claude Code use is up 5× since June. How India deploys AI across critical sectors like education, healthcare, and agriculture for over a billion people will be essential in shaping the future of AI.

A wonderful independent bookstore to finish the new Berry novel in! (You enter the children’s room through a wardrobe stuffed with fur coats) Hat tip to @HaleyCarrots for mentioning it once and lodging it in my mind forever.

Still one of the greatest moments in Nobel history. At 2:15 a.m. on Oct. 12, 2020, a security camera caught Prof. Emeritus Robert Wilson in slippers at Prof. Paul Milgrom's front door. The longtime collaborators, who lived across the street from each other, had jointly won the…

I, too, made the mistake of *checks notes* taking OpenAI's charitable mission seriously and literally. In return, got a knock at my door in Oklahoma with a demand for every text/email/document that, in the "broadest sense permitted," relates to OpenAI's governance and investors.

One Tuesday night, as my wife and I sat down for dinner, a sheriff’s deputy knocked on the door to serve me a subpoena from OpenAI. I held back on talking about it because I didn't want to distract from SB 53, but Newsom just signed the bill so... here's what happened: 🧵
