Happy birthday to the Trump phone

From the day it was announced, on June 16th, 2025, the Trump phone sounded ridiculous.

In practice, only the bigger battery feels like a meaningful improvement. The other upgrades are only fractionally superior to what came before. This isn't entirely Honor's […] Read more ›

According to a new report from Semafor, the White House's decision to impose export restrictions on Anthropic's Mythos was driven in part by fears that it had been accessed by a group linked to China.

Conclave is the sound of a NYC summer block party

I have this vivid memory of walking to pick up my oldest from school in June of 2022. For a variety of reasons, I was in a very bad place mentally. And to make matters worse, it was brutally hot.
