DOGE is accessing vast troves of data, shutting down gov websites, and promising to replace countless jobs with an "AI-first" strategy.

The Tim Cook Severance promo is wild because I always felt like the show could be about Apple - a company with such a deep, crazy culture of secrecy that they’d be the first to opt for severed employees in the workforce.
also, my work there was always mysterious and important

The globe is getting hotter at a faster rate, but this acceleration is occurring unevenly—and not for a good reason.
Megacities such as Mumbai and Cairo are so polluted that they’re warming slower
This surprising effect of pollution should hardly be taken as a good sign.

Poah, ist das übel, was in der FDP gerade abgeht. Ein Glück ist das in „meiner kleinen Kommunalpolitik“ weit weg. Die Parteien gehen anders im Ort miteinander um. Und Bürger wollen in erster Linie Verlässlichkeit. Das scheint man in Berlin gerne zu vergessen.

ChatGPT was tasked with designing a website. The result was as manipulative as you'd expect
