Brian Moakley @jezner.com · 24/09/2026Also, writers should avoid conflating current "AI" with science fiction. This is not HAL from 2001. This is not the Terminator or Skynet. It's the Magic 8 Ball using probability and statistics to determine its answer. 032

Brian Moakley @jezner.com · 30/08/2026If Google is changing map names over the weakest of political reasons, you should not trust them and use a different service. Honestly, you should consider dropping Google wherever you can. It's a terrible company run by terrible people. 010

Brian Moakley @jezner.com · 27/08/2026Pod Save America is chasing 2016 vibes by hiring Nate Silver. It seems like a hail mary for an increasingly out-of-touch organization that now caters to right-learning moderate Democrats versus their original leftwing audience. They should just merge with the Bulwark and call it a day. 021
