One nice thing about doing more video podcasts is how cool and great and normal I always look in the thumbnails

Hmm if only there were an obvious way to split the company name up

Memorizing this paragraph, tattooing it on my forehead, screaming it into the void once an hour for the foreseeable future www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/o...

A New York times screenshot that reads: But that is the situation. A power-mad president possessed of radical theories of executive authority and convinced of his own royal prerogative has given de facto control of most of the federal government to one of the richest men on the planet, if not the richest, whose own interests are tangled up in those of rival governments and foreign autocracies as well as the United States. The public has no guarantee that its most sensitive data is secure. At best, they have the personal word of Donald Trump, which, paired with a few dollars, might buy you a cup of coffee.

This is a great chat with Sundar Pichai and @reckless.bsky.social, in which they both agree that the open web is great and also the open web sucks sometimes www.theverge.com/2023/5/12/23720731…
