Tailwind CSS has had to layoff 3 out of 4 developers due to impact of AI on their business.

Their business model is to upsell to their paid UI components from their developer docs. But AI usage has caused traffic to their docs to drop -40% and revenue has dropped -80%. Another victim of AI tool use

I ask this every now and then and I’ve yet to get a good answer.

How long does it take for people to realize they’re on the wrong side of history?

If you have any funds to spare and want to help Minneapolis right now, getting dash cams to observers is crucially important and especially after today
ICE observers in the Twin Cities are in need of dash cams to prevent further intimidation and frivolous claims.

Cams are $110, memory cards $35, and ship to us directly via this wish list: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

If you've been looking for a way to help, we'd sure appreciate it!

I am pleased to announce that I have commandeered my neighbor's home. This home will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, to ensure it is used to benefit my neighbor and me! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Big: Wyoming supreme court just struck down abortion ban.

And get this: The reason is a constitutional amendment codifying a right to make health care decisions... passed in 2012 by conservatives who thought it'd screw Obamacare!

Quite the backfire. We explained this lawsuit a few years back:

By taken in, of course, he means he’s taxed American businesses and consumers
Trump: "I said, 'Check the tariff shelf' ... we've taken in $650 billion." (Note the complete silence from House Republicans as he hypes tariffs.)

I reached out to the author of this viral Reddit post thinking there might be a story in it. He sent me an employee badge that Gemini flagged as being AI-generated and supporting documents that I suspect were also generated by AI. Be careful out there folks!

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.

It’s about oil and regime change.

And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

I wish this were true. I really do. But it's not.

In March of this year, 52% of white Americans approved of Trump's approach to "handling immigration."

In December of this year, 53% of white Americans approved of Trump's approach to "handling immigration."

Trump's base still loves the cruelty.

Long-term loans to former colonies are not restitution. They do not acknowledge historical wrongdoing, nor do they restore agency to source communities.

Only a matter of time until a UC Berkeley law professor writes a memo justifying torture, a brave Vanity Fair writer gets tortured to say whether it hurts, and we have a national discussion about whether certain people should be tortured for our safety.

Unlike many of Flock’s cameras, Flock’s Condor cameras track people, not vehicles.

The exposure highlights the fact that Flock is not just surveilling cars—it is surveilling people, and in some cases it is doing so in an insecure way.

Everyone sat around talking about how these people were incredibly stupid and then they managed to successfully implement large swathes of the plan that they all told us they were going to execute and you really have to wonder who is the stupid in this equation
