Am I hearing the Dildo of Consequences on its way to visit Bovino?
Leavitt throws Bovino under the bus: "Mr Bovino is a wonderful man and he's a great professional. He is very much going to continue CBP throughout and across the country. Mr Homan will be the main point of contact on the ground in Minneapolis"

The Democrats really need to campaign on destroying the corruption in this administration and holding these assholes accountable.

Just installed Wolf Tooth Del pedals on my road bike, and really happy with how solid they feel compared to the Time MTB pedals I’ve been riding. I wouldn’t have thought it would be that noticeable. The servicability is a big bonus. The Time pedals had some play, and no easy way to fix it.

RIP Bob Weir. I feel lucky to have seen Bob & Jerry & Phil & Brent & Vince perform multiple times.

Reading this reminds me about how badly the ratings agencies failed with mortgage backed securities in the runup to the 2008 crash, and now it looks like it's happening again.
Thanks to @calculatedrisk.bsky.social and Tanta for educating a finance dilettante on how that sausage was made.

The Fight Club RHPS crossover I always wanted
While Fight Club was still in theaters, I went to see RHPS, and when they reveal Eddie, someone shouted "HIS NAME WAS ROBERT PAULSON" and got probably half the theater to chant along with it for 3-5 reps.

Watching CNN interview a representative from Illinois, and the anchor keeps mentioning the JAG Officer that ok’d the ”double tap”, and all I hear is JAGOff-icer

Would it be helpful to explain to people that if we are killing the survivors of an airstrike on a boat (i.e. a double tap strike) that we are increasing the chances that US personnel could be exposed to similar actions in the future?

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Well, I managed to successfully not throw anything at the TV while watching Anderson Cooper credulously interview Dario Amodei about The Model.

This gives me flashbacks to my teenage years of going through the Apple ][ technical manual, and reading @stevewoz.bsky.social assembly language listings of the floppy drive encoding/decoding. It was fascinating stuff. With less abstraction, things were so much simpler and easy to digest then.
There is so much that is very funny about the deepest physical factors of computational operation. OK you want to store 100 zeros in a row. OK just put 100 lows on a magnetic disk. OK but how do you know where each zero starts? Clocks are good but you're running against increasing factors of error.

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

So did Lutnick look at last night’s Treasury futures, and realize that Cantor Fitzgerald was in existential danger and had his boss act?

Am I a little slow on the uptake here? Or does what our president really want is a barter system with every other country (and a few non-countries) in the world?
