A super useful feature I like that we have in Grok Build: we load your .envrc and pass it straight into the agent’s shell environment.

Same API keys, PATH, sccache, remote caches, .etc — everything your shell has. Tests and builds just work. No secret pasting, no “command not found”, no env drift.

Tip: Use scoped/read-only/rate-limited keys only. The agent gets exactly what you give it.

@Notwokenow 😄 Great photo. Nice tats.

"82 years later, that charge has not expired. It passed to us."

[General Mike Flynn @GenFlynn]

On June 6, 1944, before dawn, 13,000 American paratroopers dropped behind enemy lines into occupied France. By first light, nearly 160,000 Allied troops were crossing the English Channel in the largest seaborne invasion in history.

We call it D-Day, and the name itself carries history worth understanding. The Army has long described it as simple alliteration, much like H-Hour, while the French connect the D to "disembarkation." Some call it the "day of decision." When someone wrote to General Eisenhower in 1964 asking for a definitive answer, his executive assistant, Brigadier General Robert Schultz, replied on his behalf: "Be advised that any amphibious operation has a 'departed date'; therefore, the shortened term 'D-Day' is used." Whatever the origin of the name, what happened on that day needs no translation.

The boys hitting those beaches, Omaha, Utah, Gold, Juno, and Sword, were not hardened veterans in most cases. They were 18, 19, and 20 years old. They were farmers from Iowa, steelworkers from Pittsburgh, and fishermen from New England. They were young Americans who had grown up during the Depression and answered the call when their country and the free world needed them most.

At Omaha Beach alone, American forces suffered nearly 2,000 casualties in a matter of hours. Men were cut down in the surf before their boots ever touched sand. The ones who survived pushed forward over the bodies of their friends. They took the bluffs. They broke the Atlantic Wall.

They turned the tide of the Second World War.

I think about those men often. I think about what they carried, not just the weight of their packs, but the weight of knowing what was at stake. They were not fighting for a political party or an ideology. They were fighting for the idea that free people have the right to govern themselves, that tyranny does not get the last word, and that some things are worth dying for.

82 years later, that charge has not expired. It passed to us. Say a prayer today for every man who fell on those beaches and in those fields, then ask yourself whether you are living in a way that justifies what they paid. God rest their souls. God bless this Republic.

They took life with no remorse. Who knows what the world lost because of them? Why would we think they wouldn't do it again? Whose life are we gambling away by keeping them alive?

[Sherri Unfiltered™ @FFT1776]

These 17 and 18 years olds have been convicted of murder.

Should the death penalty be an option?

[ChuckinTexas @rc135tx]

@Teslarati We've heard that holding longer story before. It never lasts. The ICE cars don't last, especially in the salt belt.

[Matthew Prince 🌥 @eastdakota]

Welp, that happened faster than I predicted. Thought it would be end of 2027, then early 2027, but agentic traffic growing so fast that bots have now passed human traffic online for the first time in the Internet's history. https://t.co/2zX5bHdhsa

@TechOperator Boomers. The term pisses me off. Stop it. You're better than that. You meant to say "some older people". Drop the generics.

[ChuckinTexas @rc135tx]

@BuzzPatterson Seriously cool shot.

Iran's neighbors have put up with or aided the regime for decades. This is what they reap.

[OSINTdefender @sentdefender]

Terminal One at Kuwait International Airport suffered significant damage, with multiple civilians being injured, in last night’s retaliatory drone and missile attack by Iran, which reports initial claimed had only failed to target Ali Al Salem Air Base.

@Notwokenow I like both text and video, they should be on separate channels.

[ChuckinTexas @rc135tx]

@NativeTexan_17 GM. Good idea. 💤

@Sassafrass_84 My opinion: some humans were built incorrectly. They do only harm. They are not fixable. Those humans do not deserve my resources. Or yours. They cannot be loose in the society of functional humans.
