"Regex is how I imagine eldritch horrors work.
You look at it and it makes no sense and it's scary.
As you stare, for a split second there is understanding. The universe expands before your eyes, reality unraveling.
Then the madness sets in."

Musk and his cyber-terrorists are now moving into IRS records. If they get away with this, that's pretty much the ballgame, folks.

I continue to report on the urgent cybersecurity and privacy issues resulting from DOGE access across the government. If you know something our readers should be aware of, please reach out to me on Signal at joemenn.01. Thank you.
@jonty whereabouts are you geographically, and how many pages.

Every Tesla we saw on our walk to dinner last night had a similar message. This is North London.

BREAKING: A bunch of U.S. Digital Service employees (including me) were fired tonight. It's still unclear exactly how many. There is no visibility whatsoever into what determined who was let go. Legacy USDS (i.e., pre-DOGE) leadership was not involved in the decision about whom to let go and was not notified in advance that people were going to be fired.

Yesterday I interviewed a ridiculously clever person from @nvidia about chip design and the future of computing. We agreed that Voyager's Bio-neural circuitry is the way forward but it'll take a while. Also, I love my job.
@foone <cries in pre-HDD age>
5th computer (though first was a temp-loan Commodore Pet) in our house was an Arch A400 with (iirc) 20mb of hard disk.
first one I took apart fully was my 486 with its chonky 40mb ide drive. used to love going to sleep while defragging that thing :)
still, my phone has a terabyte of micro-sd in it today, so that's progress I guess
