I have 6 week old right now, and during late night feeding sessions I've spent time on the #samharris subreddit. It's an odd place and got me to write a new blog entry: "Your Podcast Host Is Not Your Friend: Avoiding the Sam Harris Personality Cult" dncrwlye.github.io/blog.html

Why do people like ArcBrowser? I've been trying to use it for 3 months now, my main experience is it crashing once a day. I have a lot of qualms with the internet, my browser isn't the top 10

I'll believe the AI induced "SaaSpocalypse" is coming when I see a new version of Mendeley, because that should be the first product to die.

I notice more 'AI voice' in my colleagues' writing. It's jarring and anytime I catch it, my eyes glaze over or I just skip it. I've been thinking about what this means for the writer/reader relationship --> dncrwlye.github.io/blog.html

I'm so excited to have the last chapter of my PhD OUT!! Based on a longitudinal study of captive fruit bats in Ghana, we show that a decline in the population density of bat flies resulted in decreased Bartonella prevalence, which then rebounded when flies were restocked. doi.org/10.1017/s003...

I guest lectured a class on tolerance and resistance last week (not a strong topic for me, I find the tolerance/resistance functions confusing). However, as 1) animations and 2) with a time component the functions finally started to make some sense.

AUSA Hagan Scotten, former clerk for John Roberts, really put some mustard on his resignation letter.

BY EMAIL
Re: United States v. Eric Adams, 24 Cr. 556 (DEH)
Mr. Bove,
I have received correspondence indicating that I refused your order to move to dismiss the indictment against Eric Adams without prejudice, subject to certain conditions, including the express possibility of reinstatement of the indictment. That is not exactly correct. The U.S.
Attorney, Danielle R. Sassoon, never asked me to file such a motion, and I therefore never had an opportunity to refuse. But I am entirely in agreement with her decision not to do so, for the reasons stated in her February 12, 2025 letter to the Attorney General.
In short, the first justification for the motion-that Damian Williams's role in the case somehow tainted a valid indictment supported by ample evidence, and pursued under four different U.S. attorneys is so weak as to be transparently pretextual. The second justification is worse.
No system of ordered liberty can allow the Government to use the carrot of dismissing charges, or the stick of threatening to bring them again, to induce an elected official to support its policy objectives.
There is a tradition in public service of resigning in a last-ditch effort to head off a serious mistake. Some will view the mistake you are committing here in the light of their generally negative views of the new Administration. I do not share those views. I can even understand how a Chief Executive whose background is in business and politics might see the contemplated dismissal-with-leverage as a good, if distasteful, deal. But any assistant U.S. attorney would know much i i red oril, in this ily. wing the perset arthro he Reside is ving to,
give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.
Please consider this my resignation. It has been an honor to serve as a prosecutor in the
Southern District of New York.
Yours truly,
Hagan Scotten
Assistant United States Att…
