Digital rights activists have long railed at the use of the term "IP," criticizing it for being deceptively imprecise and also rhetorically dishonest. I get where these objections are coming from, but I think they're misguided.

A pastoral landscape with a cablecar system running overhead. A procession of old-timey cash registers are being moved through the sky on it.

I'm guessing you went to Carleton? Because I just got the same email about my son (who's a sophomore there) about 10 minutes ago. I have to think it's related to this: www.latimes.com/california/s...

If your degree doesn’t pay enough, you can’t borrow. Federal loans cut for low-wage programs

Students in low-paying college degree and certificate programs will no longer be eligible for federal student loans under a new rule.

This describes my path to Resolve almost to the point that I could have written it. Couldn't agree more (still mad about FCP X).

If you Mamdani-heads want to know where he got the idea for his cute little videos where he shakes city worker's hands, well it wasn't not from Mierle Ukeles. Check this clip from early 2025: www.instagram.com/reel/DF8G2yF...

There was literally a pangolin that flew combat sorties with the CIA in a dirty war in Laos that then died after drinking too much gin, so there’s at least one pangolin whose record is morally ambiguous

I’m curious which tax proposal of Mamdani’s is “regressive on the middle class”? The property tax proposal that addresses the current system’s unfair overtaxation of renters to the benefit of homeowners?

“A whole civilization will die tonight” is the most vile thing a US president has ever said, certainly during the post-1945 era when they’ve had the power to kill civilizations with the dropping of a bomb. I’m staring into the darkness. May this not be one of the most fateful days in human history.

On second thought, if the average robbery lasts about two minutes, I guess the hourly rate is pretty high.

Bank robbery does not appear to be as remunerative as I had been led to believe. How is this guy buying a “Rolls Royce SUV” when grabbing such puny amounts of cash?!

Perhaps the original “successful businessman who promises to run the government like an efficient business”? Is there another major figure like that before him? (And, of course, like our current such tormentor, it turns out his business is fully dependent on the largesse of government spending.)

I will say that a major takeaway for me, even having lived through those days, is that we underrate and don’t sufficiently think about the massive importance of one man in particular: H. Ross Perot. And not just because of his effect on the results in 1992.

Just finished the excellent and very readable When the Clock Broke by @lioneltrolling.bsky.social. Having lived through it I certainly recognized much but it was fascinating and terrifying to read about some of the figures I hadn’t clocked at the time, like Carroll Quigley or (shudder) Sam Francis.
