I am team "don't change the clocks". We need to either pick Daylight Savings Time or Standard time and stick with it. This Fall/Spring change nonsense needs to stop.

We weren't dragged into anything. Trump started this and we'll be living with the consequences for years to come.

Block shares soar as much as 24% as company slashes workforce by nearly half Block said Thursday it's laying off more than 4,000 employees, or about half of its head count.

The CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions!

This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/t...

I probably own 30 pairs of socks. About 10 pairs don't have holes in them. These are referred to as the "good socks". Thank you for listening to my sock talk.

Hmm, maybe Trading Places. I think it came out a few years into the eighties, but close to your cuttoff date.

I'm going the listen the shit out of this! Thanks Julie.

i’m sorry what the fuck are you tryna sell me?

X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based.

Here’s an “influencer from Texas”

If it's in Western Colorado, it's in Utah.

Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness.

I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

The Nonprofit Doing the AI Industry’s Dirty Work The web archive Common Crawl has been quietly funneling paywalled articles to AI companies—and lying to publishers about it.

This article is really great bc it's about an org everyone knows but seems so boring we forget about it (Common Crawl) and turns out they're doing something extremely shady, AND the guy in charge keeps saying the most damning things to a reporter www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

MAGA’s “Voter Fraud” Watchdog Votes in a Swing State. He Doesn’t Live There. A long paper trail shows that Jack Posobiec casts a ballot in one state and lives in another.

SCOOP — Pennsylvania prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices against voter fraud. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parents' PA address for years.

From @jsweetli.bsky.social, @slate.com + me:

We're about to find out if Silicon Valley owns Gavin Newsom A guide to the AI and tech bills that have passed the California legislature, and await the governor's signature — or veto.

This has been pushed to the background, but pay attention:

Right now, a stack of bills aimed at reining in AI companies and big tech sits on Gavin Newsom's desk in California. These are the bills Silicon Valley and the GOP tried to ban outright. Now they await Newsom's signature—or veto.
