Congress has let drug companies rip off Americans for decades.

Lobbyists, campaign cash, and a system that protects industry profits.

But it doesn’t have to be this way.

In 2025, I spent $1,962 on public transit, Citi Bike, and rideshare. With AAA estimating the annual cost of car ownership at $11,577, that means I saved $9,615 by living in a walkable city with great transit. Car dependency is expensive.

americans really spend 4 years in a walkable community (college), say “wow, those were truly the best years of my life. oh well!” and then proceed to buy a house & car in the middle of a suburbanite hellscape

One of those screenshots I think everyone needs to stare at before reading one of those salary articles. I constantly have to mentally adjust to it because I grew up thinking of $70k as the target "good" salary and $100k as wild wealth. But the 70k I used to think of is now 100k.

[Kathy Park Price @KathyParkPrice]

NYT reports that some older adults are moving to NYC instead of retiring in Florida? Of course. Walkability, transit, culture, parks, and the freedom of not needing a car make it possible to stay active, connected, and engaged at any age.

For the first time since the 1930s, more people are leaving the US than coming in. The reasons are complex but it speaks to something about where US is right now.

[Yaroslav Trofimov @yarotrof]

The new American dream, for some of its citizens, is to no longer live there. In nearly all of the European Union’s 27 member states, the number of Americans arriving to live and work is at a record and rising. Even Albania is now flooded with American migrants.

A Gallup poll last year found 40% of American women, ages 15-44, would like to permanently move overseas, if possible. By comparison, in 2023, the same pollster found that a slightly smaller proportion of sub-Saharan Africans—37%—wished to do the same.

Strikingly, the new American migrant is more likely than ever to bring children in tow, laying down roots. “You don’t face the prospect of your 5-year-old going into a kindergarten and doing an active shooter drill. The wages are higher in the U.S. but the quality of life is higher in Europe.”

Anthropic just made the entire $15B application security market price in a question it can't answer.

Traditional AppSec tools from Snyk, Veracode, and Checkmarx charge per-developer licensing for static analysis. They find vulnerabilities. They generate reports. They flag code. Then a security engineer has to actually fix the problem, which is where 80% of the cost and 90% of the delay lives.

Look at the screenshot. Input sanitization audits. SSRF detection. Auth bypass tracing. RBAC enforcement reviews. These are the exact tasks that cost security consultants $300-500/hr and take weeks to schedule.

Claude Code Security doesn't generate a PDF full of findings for a human to triage. It writes the patches. That compresses the entire vulnerability lifecycle, discovery through remediation, into a single loop.

This tells you everything about where Anthropic sees the real margin in developer tools. Scanning is commoditized. Every CI/CD pipeline already runs some flavor of SAST/DAST. The bottleneck has always been fixing vulnerabilities fast enough to matter, and that bottleneck just disappeared.

The timing is worth noting too. Anthropic released this the same week enterprises are getting audited on SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance cycles. Security teams running 200+ open findings with a 90-day remediation SLA just got a tool that could clear that backlog in hours.

If you're building in AppSec right now, the competitive question changed. You're no longer selling "we find more bugs." You're competing against an AI that finds them and writes the patches in the same session.

@RayDalio @grok summarize this please

[Rohan Paul @rohanpaul_ai]

A super interesting new study from Harvard Business Review.

A 8-month field study at a US tech company with about 200 employees found that AI use did not shrink work, it intensified it, and made employees busier.

Task expansion happened because AI filled in gaps in knowledge, so people started doing work that used to belong to other roles or would have been outsourced or deferred.

That shift created extra coordination and review work for specialists, including fixing AI-assisted drafts and coaching colleagues whose work was only partly correct or complete.

Boundaries blurred because starting became as easy as writing a prompt, so work slipped into lunch, meetings, and the minutes right before stepping away.

Multitasking rose because people ran multiple AI threads at once and kept checking outputs, which increased attention switching and mental load.

Over time, this faster rhythm raised expectations for speed through what became visible and normal, even without explicit pressure from managers.

The 2nd amendment is not for hunting, it is not for self protection

It is there to ensure that free people can defend themselves if god forbid government became tyrannical and turned against its citizens

Inbox: Zohran Mamdani will take the oath of office during a private ceremony at midnight on New Year's Eve inside the Old City Hall subway station.

He'll then be sworn in publicly during a ceremony on the City Hall steps in the afternoon on New Year's Day.

A reminder that Republicans control the House, Senate and the White House.
