Americans confused by the Canadian election need to learn the two types of democracies:

1) a Parliamentary system
2) a Funkadelicary system

In a Parliament, Dr. Funkenstein summons the Mothership to defeat Sir Noze

In a Funkadelic, freeing your mind allows your maggot brain to create one nation

Kristi Noem spoke at RSA today and said she had had a "candid" conversation with tech leaders here in SF earlier in the day. My understanding is they were executives in tech, critical infrastructure, and cyber.

Do you know of anyone who attended? I'm looking for details of the guest list and what the conversation was like. Can keep your identity private. Signal is kevincollier.01, email kevin.collier@nbcuni.com.

@the_etrain Street corn has a high likelihood of having been cut with barley. Or fentanyl.

"[Kansas] Lawmakers wrapped up their work on Friday, leaving the state crueler, sicker, poorer and weaker. A bill mugging transgender kids made it into law. So did a bill promising tax cuts but threatening fiscal ruin. Public health officials’ power to fight illness was restricted. Special education students were left out to dry."

I'm curious what era MBP, and what Linux distro? How does Linux handle the modifier keys? I'm about to throw my personal laptop out the window because switching back and forth between my work Mac and my personal PC laptop is killing me. I have an old 2015 MBP that's probably sufficient for what I would do with it, but it won't support current OSX.

I appreciate that so many are calling the "replace SSA COBOL systems in months using AI" idea out for the risk and difficulty inherent in replacing such a large and entrenched system.

We should also do a better job of articulating a key danger, which I'm sure the people expecting to pull this off don't understand: COBOL handles numbers and arithmetic in a way designed to maintain precision that is not supported natively by modern languages.

Mark Carney with an unbelievable 72 hrs since being sworn in.

🔴 Tells Donald Trump he's not speaking with him until the annexation talk stops.

🟢 Immediately flies to France and Britain to very publically shore up support with European allies.

Not a single dime from my hands will go to Democrats until they remove schumer from leadership and put someone in who has actual balls.

He is Neville chamberlain. We need Churchill.

“ Democrats agree to give up the 60 vote threshold in exchange for being allowed to offer amendments to the House bill.”

Being ALLOWED to OFFER amendments…which republicans will just dismiss while laughing.

JFC, dump Schumer!

JUST IN - Our Twitter (X) account has been locked.

They claim we published "people's private information without their express authorization and permission."

We published names and email addresses of people working for the government. We will not be intimidated.

@GW hopefully this will lead to Elon ragequitting government all together. I won't hold my breath, though.

@jalefkowit Same, I don't want forks, I want Mozilla to really be a force for good.

The whole thing with the board and executives seems like best sign of organizational decay.

Feels complex for no benefit. Like playing house.
