Now we'll finally learn what's in the Epstein files. Mike Johnson is no longer in a position to shut down the House in order to prevent votes on measures to force their release. It's time. It's past time.

One month's progress for a successful startup. The previous month's towering revenue number now looks small, and the early part of the graph is starting to read as flat. This is what exponential growth feels like.

Love to see @PabloTorre bring up @DropSiteNews reporting on Morning Joe, highlighting the wild detail that two Mike Rogers staffers are registered foreign agents for the state of Israel

The Rogers spokesperson you see starting this press conference is Abby Ronson. She is currently registered as a foreign agent for the state of Israel, according to @DropSiteNews reporting today
Most investors have no idea of the damage that the mere distraction of talking to them does to a startup. Here's a typical example. And this is a YC company too, meaning they have an easier time fundraising than the median startup.
Some man-made things are obviously very dated. And if they can be more dated, they can be less dated too. Are the least dated man-made things timeless? If not they're close.
Ridiculous looking haircuts are not a modern phenomenon. Indeed you can pretty much assume that the most fashionable haircut now will look ridiculous later in photographs.

This is an incredible accomplishment by India. Absolutely world-changing.
India saw about 496 million people lifted out of poverty between 2011 and 2023 in one of the world’s fastest declines in this metric, the World Bank said, although the gains remain uneven. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Why do more men than women end up in some jobs, and more women than men in others?
A new paper shows that a big part of it is that men and women are interested in different stuff.

Mike Rogers is one of the chief architects of the modern surveillance state and a champion of the forever war.
Privacy and war are two of the very few issues on which a member of Congress can make a difference with a marginal, decisive vote.
Michigan, let’s make sure Rogers gets nowhere near the U.S. Senate.

China is increasingly using hundreds of electric self-driving trucks that run 24 hours a day and can find their own charging stations.
The irony is they’re mining coal and ultimately powered by coal-fired plants. wsj.com/world/asia/these-tru…

This is an important trial.
The mainstream view has been that statins reduce the progression of atherosclerosis and stabilize plaques, but don’t reverse it.
That’s not true. They reverse it as well.
🫀 Can coronary atherosclerosis actually regress?
Our new randomized FLOWPROMOTE trial analysis, published TODAY in JAMA Cardiology, shows remarkable coronary plaque regression with intensive LDL-C lowering!
Atherosclerosis is not necessarily a one-way process.

We’ve raised $1.3M from YC & Afore Capital so you never have to type or speak again.
Typing is slow. Talking into your computer is awkward. Subvocal fixes both
Our glasses give you the speed of speech without you making a sound or touching a keyboard.
It tracks your internal speech muscles with non-contact sensing and decodes silent, almost invisible mouthing into text at more than 200 words/min.

This @NewYorker story is so good, and so important for everyone to understand. Through the lens of semiconductor manufacturing, it highlights the interconnectedness of today’s world and puts to shame anyone who thinks that we can go back to a world shaped only by national rivalries rather than international cooperation and trade. “The semiconductor supply chain is a planetary superorganism with its own ecology…. Globalization has become tainted in our eyes, as if it necessarily constitutes a zero-sum enterprise. And its mercenary form—which is also its most common form—has indeed inflicted harm. But the global semiconductor supply chain reflects an alternative pathway. It has united its participants in the pursuit of something profoundly difficult that could not have been achieved in the absence of intercontinental solidarity.” newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…
