Earthquake in Brooklyn?

@geralddavidsson @mattyglesias Oh, I think that’s a sort of humorous rhetorical device — tautology as a form of reemphasis. Another, even clearer example: “I’m hot cos I’m fly / You ain’t cos you not.” Clearly not a logical elaboration of “This is why I’m hot.” But 2x platinum, as it turns out, nonetheless.

I’m trying to figure out how to audiobook George Kennan’s memoirs, like that’s going to help anything.

@SleepyDjango @ItsMeThaler I don’t think first-past-the-post works with a field of 6 or 7. Why would we want a candidate that, let’s say, 25% supported, but 75% opposed? Super-delegates are highly questionable, but there should be second preference votes by the delegates. Forging greater consensus is good.

Alarming. Doesn’t Apple owe more than a pro forma takedown letter to companies that are trying to provide vital health tools, and have built large and profitable businesses around their platform? https://t.co/kOzWHj1fM5 via ⁦@nytimes⁩

@superwuster If the MTA is getting the money, then they should be held to account and should run trains reliably at night. I'm also concerned about the potential public safety impact on those who need to take a car late, though the lower tax on shared cars helps there.

@jowyang Live game blogs on our news sites (such as https://t.co/N4pYFCZjVL) are reported using Slack as a collaborative CMS. How about that? :)

Retweet if you want networks to stop booking Kellyanne Conway, the first U.S. presidential counselor to openly advocate lying to the public.
