We did it: 🇩🇪Germany will OPPOSE Chat Control! 🥳 Thanks everyone for writing to the ministers. 🫶 #ChatControl will not get a majority in the EU Council - at least for now.

📣 Germany is close to reversing its principled opposition to mass surveillance & private message scanning, & backing the Chat Control bill. This could end private —& Signal—in the EU. Time is short and they're counting on obscurity: please let German politicians know how…

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/germ…

It is pretty funny that the majority of complaints you hear from the people protesting datacenter construction are about the water usage, which is fake, and not about the power consumption, which is real.

Wholesale electricity costs as much as 267% more than it did five years ago in areas near data centers. That’s being passed on to customers. bloomberg.com/graphics/2025-…

I woke up in my normal bed

Woke up because my AI controlled bed is too cold. Went to adjust temperature and I can’t because the Eight Sleep app is currently broken. Can’t adjust by hand because I have a Pod3, not the upgraded Pod4 with physical controls. Now I am stuck in a cold bed. This feels dystopian.

Again: The USPS is REQUIRED to deliver to EVERY. SINGLE. ADDRESS in the United States. They have someone ride into the Grand Canyon ON A MULE to deliver mail to people who live at the bottom of the canyon. They are not meant to be profitable. They are meant to serve US citizens.

I think it was a tremendous moral failure on the part of a lot of people to validate and even promote the idea that things under the Democrats were as bad as they could possibly be. Intentionally distorting vulnerable young people's risk assessment for political clout was wrong.

In Berlin you get used to weird payment policies. Some place only take cash, others only card. Yesterday I went to a Korean restaurant that only takes card at night


My longstanding opinion is that a lot of the value of a CS degree is the meta skill of learning to understand/apply technical concepts - why take this from yourself? who benefits? imo if you're thinking this way you....maybe shouldn't be pursuing a CS degree!

Put another way, I'm pretty sure a lot of Computer Science students are using ChatGPT to complete their coding assignments instead of actually doing the assignments themselves. If true, it's a huge problem. The process of learning debugging is critical to growing as an engineer.

I will easily take “every device I own and every device the people in my life own can charge off the same cable” over “we might lose out on a millimeter of phone thinness”

Shoutout to the EU for making it impossible to engineer a solution!

all thanks to Europe's hands-off, deregulatory approach to food and restaurants

Ainsley Earhardt makes a case for RFK Jr: "When you go to Europe, the food is delicious. It's so fresh. And you don't gain weight if you eat a big bowl of pasta. So we want that to come here to America."

the tax code is not complicated because it is progressive, having a few different percentages is not complicated—what’s complicated is what is or is not taxable, which involves depreciation, tax credits, profit calculations, etc…

Amen. A simple flat tax. And abolish the IRS!
