It breaks my heart to tell you that we lost our home to the Altadena fires. It’s completely gone. Thankfully, we’re safe with our dog across town, hosted by some dear friends. I never thought this would be me, but a friend made us this GFM, which I post here with incredible humility:

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Lots of people posting new personal best solving times on my NYT crossword today. If you've been hesitant to try solving a Friday because you think they're too hard, today is a good day to give it a try!

As far as I know, the Tech Guild strike is over, although they still don’t have a contract. So, Wordle? Spelling Bee? Connections? The Crossword? Have at it.

This summer I constructed a NYT crossword puzzle in real time for the podcast "BBC in the Studio". It was an amazing experience and I'm so grateful to have a recording of my process (even if it wasn't pretty at times). The resulting puzzle is now live! www.nytimes.com/2023/12/28/c...
