i regret to inform you that personal growth rarely comes from acquiring new knowledge and almost always from:
- getting humiliated
- showing up terrified and doing it anyway
- admitting you might be the problem

I am fully convinced that 2019 was the last normal year we ever had. Ever since then, it feels like everything’s broken. Everyone is constantly anxious, time moves too fast, and nothing actually feels real anymore. The world as we knew it is just gone

I’m in love with this sentence:

“The degree to which a person can grow is directly proportional to the amount of truth he can accept about himself without running away.”

This story is actually insane:

• dude drops $2000 on a DJI robot vacuum like a lunatic
• refuses to use the normal app like a peasant
• Sammy Azdoufal fires up Claude to crack the API so he can drive it with an xbox controller
• Claude delivers the goods
• pulls an auth token from their servers, connects successfully
• except the system thinks he controls 7000 vacuums
• checks again
• yep, seven thousand
• DJI built authentication with zero device ownership verification
• any valid token works for any unit on the planet
• Sammy now has eyes inside homes across 24 countries
• live vacuum camera feeds everywhere
• full floor plans from the mapping data
• some guy in germany eating cereal at 3am, unaware his roomba is snitching
• one API call away from being the most informed burglar in history
• all he wanted was to steer his vacuum with a joystick
• does the right thing and reports it
• DJI fixes it in two days
• back to normal life with his stupidly expensive floor cleaner
• IoT companies stay undefeated at shipping garbage security

Trump single-handily getting an Oxford educated economist elected Prime Minister of Canada at just the perfect time for him to crest a tsunami of anti-American sentiment is probably the funniest/stupidest own goal in international geopolitical history.

In order to be born, you needed:

2 parents
4 grandparents
8 great-grandparents
16 second great-grandparents
32 third great-grandparents
64 fourth great-grandparents
128 fifth great-grandparents
256 sixth great-grandparents
512 seventh great-grandparents
1,024 eighth great-grandparents
2,048 ninth great-grandparents

For you to be born today from 12 previous generations, you needed a total of 4.094 ancestors over the last 400 years

Pause for a second and really think about this…

How many hardships did they survive?
How many silent battles did they fight?
How many tears did they wipe away?
How many moments of joy did they celebrate?
How many love stories began so that yours could one day exist?
How many dreams for a better future were whispered into the dark?
All of it…
just so you could be here, alive, in this moment

I knew Pam Bondi was dumb but I didn’t know she was *that* dumb.

[DCinvestor @DCinvestor]

i went to the doctor today. he looked concerned. he said my cholesterol numbers were still a little high

i was furious at the question. so i looked him in the eye and screamed as loudly as i could:

"The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000... That's what we should be talking about."

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Pam Bondi, "There is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime"

Ted Lieu, "You just lied under oath. There is ample evidence in the Epstein files"

Pam Bondi, "Don't you ever accuse me of a crime"

Ted Lieu, "You just lied under oath, and this is on video tape"

Ted Lieu then reads an extract from the Epstein files about a girl who says she was raped by Trump and Epstein and had her head blown off, with officer saying it couldn't have been a suicide

Ted Lieu, "You have not held a single man accountable"

"Shame on you"

"if you had any decency, you would resign after this hearing concludes"

Let’s be clear: there is no universe where Karoline Leavitt should still have a job by the end of today. Dismissing the response to a racist meme from the president as “fake outrage,” saying it “doesn’t matter,” and waving it off as a Lion King joke is a fireable offense.

[Ovie @OvieO]

There’s no single leader in the Developed World that survives that “Obama - Ape” post.

The UK PM would be gone before noon.

France, Germany, etc. All gone.

And the ones who’d survive - the likes of Putin & Xi - wouldn’t post it. Because they aren’t stupid.

Except Trump.
