don’t use email for anything that actually needs to be secure: this is what Signal is for

the last three weeks of Epstein Drops should have hammered that home for everyone

I mean sure I’m glad Google did not in fact totally cock up Gmail forever, as I still use it in the absence of a current better option (no, Proton is not actually better security-wise, email is just inherently super insecure anyway) - but it is a very tentative standoff we are in

I love adding Easter eggs in my hand off files. Why?

1. It brings me joy, and will hopefully do the same for the engineer.

2. It lets me know that the documentation that I spent extra time working on actually got read. 😂

there are more large scale internet incidents this time of year because engineering teams are getting changes in before the holidays, either for new features or to help manage holiday traffic.

it’s not a conspiracy to take down the internet, it’s that maintaining the internet is hard actually.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

I wrote an MCP server that you can install that lets you chat with Claude about the Epstein document drop. it can search all the documents, and retrieve the full text from any doc.
What documents mention Peter Thiel? I found 20 documents that mention Peter Thiel. Most are emails, with one large narrative document (HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019874) that's over 9,000 lines long. The documents range from brief 9-line emails to extensive multi-page documents. Would you like me to: Retrieve specific documents to see what they say about Peter Thiel? Search for specific topics related to Peter Thiel (like donor information, specific time periods, or connections to other people)? Start with one of the shorter, high-confidence documents to get a sense of the content? Show me the full text of HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_032827 Here's the full text of document HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_032827: This is a brief email exchange from November 2018 between Peter Thiel and someone identified as "J" (using the email jeevacation@gmail.com). Key details: Date: November 6-7, 2018 (the day after the 2018 midterm elections) From J to Thiel: "Are you enjoying la? I liked your trump exaggerations not lies" Thiel's response: "Can't complain thus far..." The email appears to reference something Thiel said about Trump, with the correspondent "J" noting they liked Thiel characterizing Trump's statements as "exaggerations not lies." The email includes a standard confidentiality footer claiming attorney-client privilege and copyright from "JEE." Would you like me to look at other documents mentioning Peter Thiel, or search for more context about this exchange? Search for documents about 'Gates Foundation' and 'donor' I found 9 documents mentioning both "Gates Foundation" and "donor". The most relevant appear to be documents HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_025875, 026348, and 026351, which all contain identical questions about: A Sunday night discussion hosted with Bill Gates, Mort Zuckerman, and Peter Thiel in late September Whether they were discussing a possible Gates Foundation donor advised fund A meeting with Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim from Qatar Additionally, HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_022894 appears to be a narrative document that discusses Epstein's concept for a "donor advised fund" for the Gates Foundation, describing it as something that could lend Gates' expertise to other billionaires. Would you like me to retrieve the full text of any of these documents to see more details? The documents labeled as "email" appear to be questionnaires or interview questions, while the narrative documents seem to provide more context about the donor advised fund concept. List all tracked entities and how many documents mention each Here are all the tracked entities and document counts: Donald Trump - 2,001 documents Jeffrey Epstein - 1,098 documents Bill Clinton - 342 documents Michael Wolff - 192 documents Ghislaine Maxwell - 164 documents Landon Thomas - 149 documents Bill Gates - 53 documents Peter Thiel - 33 documents Elon Musk - 25 documents Donald Trump has by far the most mentions (2,001), which makes sense given the scale of the document collection. Jeffrey Epstein naturally appears frequently (1,098) as these are documents related to him. Bill Clinton has a substantial number of mentions (342), while Bill Gates, Peter Thiel, and Elon Musk have relatively fewer mentions. Would you like to explore documents mentioning any particular entity, or search for connections between multiple people?

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

I Want You to Understand Chicago Politics Chicago 2025-11-08 I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago. On September 19th, Reverend David Black, lead pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Chicago, was praying outside the ICE detention center in Broadview when a DHS agent shot him in the head with pepper balls. Pepper balls are never supposed to be fired at the head because they can seriously injure, or even kill. “We could hear them laughing as they were shooting us from the roof,” Black recalled. He is not the only member of the clergy ICE has assaulted. Methodist pastor Hannah Kardon was violently arrested on October 17th, and Baptist pastor Michael Woolf was shot with pepper balls on November 1st. Understand what it is to sleep in Chicago. On the night of September 30th, federal agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter to execute a raid on an apartment building on the South Sho…

Have a #BambuLab printer and wondered what the difference between Flow Rate and Flow Dynamics is?

Flow Rate/Ratio makes surfaces look better in the middle of a surface.

Flow Dynamics makes corners, edges and turn backs look better.

Gonna start the other shoe tonight.
