It’s been expensive and there’s better content at higher cadence elsewhere, so I was already considering not renewing. A few days ago, these changes nailed it for me. Bye

Obvious result of the last couple decades dumbing down our youth and normalizing mediocrity. Social media and now the AI just add fuel to a fire that even grownups don’t seem to be prepared to handle. Proper education is the solution to all our problems.

A century before we would move from fixed-program computers to reprogrammable ones, Ada Lovelace realized that the Analytical Engine was capable of universal computation. Reading her Notes is thrilling for her awestruck articulation of these ideas. Available now; link in reply.
