After 15 months of war, a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip took effect Sunday morning, paving the way for a dramatic day that saw Hamas free the first of 33 Israeli hostages in exchange for Israel releasing 90 Palestinian prisoners, all of them women and children.

I get the vibescession debate is over: the people have spoken! But economic data isn't just some intellectual exercise, it's a way we have to measure whether people are getting poorer or richer and this kind of thing doesn't happen when people are getting worse off YoY

Most Black Friday shoppers bagged their deals online this year, with record spending
As many opted to surf the web instead of face the crowds the day after Thanksgiving, shoppers spent a record $10.8 billion in online purchases. Cyber Monday is set to smash another spending record.

After the election, a reader asked, “What do we do now? Where is our safe place?” I didn’t know the answer until I was asked.
We are the safe space. You and I, and all the Americans who share our commitment to what is right and good—we will find the hope.

Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.
