1/ NYT out with a huge piece on the decision to go to war. It's much as we thought: Bibi sold Trump a rosy scenario that he heard over the mild to moderate warnings that it was BS but the details are so...appalling/demoralizing.
Vance clearly a source:

C’est meilleur que mon français.
NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. I’m not crying you’re crying 🥹🔭🧪 📸: NASA

It's funny how one can live so close to the center of tech/AI and still miss the best critiques. I stumbled onto the Pivot podcast via @profgalloway.com and now I'm listening to @karaswisher.bsky.social's Burn Book. It's kind of blowing my mind. Great stuff.
4. Critical Thinking
I had a boss like this. He was a good tester for apps I built.
"Why would you click on that?"
Noticed it too. It’s SFUSD spring break so that might be why.
C'mon... hard to blame the restaurant for what a delivery driver did.
A chat interface with a user "chris" saying "tell me about yourself" and a bot user "qwen" responding "I'm GitHub Copilot CLI, a terminal assistant built by GitHub to help with software engineering tasks. I can write code, generate documentation, and automate repetitive tasks using the power of AI. I'm powered by the qwen3:8b model and can use tools like bash, edit, view, and more to help you efficiently. How can I assist you today? 😊"
Local model with @github.com Copilot SDK. Qwen sure likes those smiley faces.

Oh goody.

I wrote a thing about a thing I made! I've integrated GitHub Copilot deeply into my work, and very little of it involves writing code. Now I've made Copilot accessible from everywhere with full context into my work, including my notes, emails, calendar, chats.

I see some people pushing back against it and it reminds me that I was part of the generation who first learned Java in college instead of assembly. There were similar concerns that we would be deficient as computer scientists.
It hasn’t hurt my career. I expect the same will happen here.
I feel like I’ve seen this one.
Probably liver.
My Sourceforge ID was 3 digits. That somehow got me in on the LNUX IPO.
2388147 can’t forget. Though weirdly I also remember the full ascii wep key from my first WiFi network.

Following the launch of Claude Code, US GitHub code pushes were 30% above the pre-2025 trend.
Similarly iOS app releases were up 55% vs last January, and new website registrations rose 34% year over year globally after years of flatlining.
AI productivity gains have hit software in a major way.
Agentic engineering is driving the cost of code to zero but the cost of good taste and product sense is going to go sky-high.
We're letting it cook friends! James Montemagno is coming in hot from holiday and will be joined by Burke Holland and Pierce Boggan. They'll dive headfirst into the latest in VS Code and GitHub Copilot. You don't want to miss this. Join us in one hour at 8 am PT youtube.com/live/uquSQY1...
A macOS Terminal window is running a dark‑themed text editor that mimics the classic MS‑DOS edit interface. The screen shows a single line of text, “Hello, MacOS! :)”, with a status bar at the bottom displaying line, column, encoding, and indentation details.
And #Copilot built it for me on MacOS in no time. �
Apparently #Microsoft remade the old-school DOS "edit.exe" command in Rust, and it looks good!

🌈 Repo Assist: A Repository Assistant
Repo Assist is an experimental automated assistant for software maintainers. For some repos, not all.
It is a GitHub Agentic Workflow and uses Copilot, Claude or Gemini in automated, proactive mode.
