I work at GitHub. yesterday was rough and i'm not pretending otherwise. full root cause report is up if you want the timeline and numbers, and what we are doing to prevent this from happening again. githubstatus.com/incidents/z…

i just used AI to identify a $100+ million opportunity for Seattle. currently, to get across the water, you have to drive all the way around it, as cars don't float this is extremely inefficient. but if you look closely, bainbridge island and seattle aren't actually all that far apart. and if we were to construct some sort of boat that carried cars, it could make the trip much quicker together with claude code, i planned out this potential route for the boat does anyone have any contacts in the local government?

When I was 12, I thought the perfect night was having three friends over, getting some pizza, and playing video games all night long Now I’m almost 30 and realize it’s 100% true

these sorts of belts, especially if they're reversible in color, have very Express mall vibes. like a black dress shirt and square toed shoes. or a solid colored pocket square.

Lmao maybe going all in on a single vendor was a poor choice @AlaskaAir

SOUND ON. You’re hearing the first howl of a dire wolf in over 10,000 years. Meet Romulus and Remus—the world’s first de-extinct animals, born on October 1, 2024. The dire wolf has been extinct for over 10,000 years. These two wolves were brought back from extinction using genetic edits derived from a complete dire wolf genome, meticulously reconstructed by Colossal from ancient DNA found in fossils dating back 11,500 and 72,000 years. This moment marks not only a milestone for us as a company but also a leap forward for science, conservation, and humanity. From the beginning, our goal has been clear: “To revolutionize history and be the first company to use CRISPR technology successfully in the de-extinction of previously lost species.” By achieving this, we continue to push forward our broader mission on—accepting humanity’s duty to restore Earth to a healthier state. But this isn’t just our moment—it’s one for science, our planet, and humankind. All of which we love and are passionate about. Now, close your eyes and listen to that howl once more. Think about what this means for all of us.

In my initial run, which processed the first 60,000 rows, I did not find these awards—my hard drive overheated long before I could complete a full pass through the database. In a later run, which I referenced in another post, I did identify two such awards. That discrepancy is a matter of sampling size, not an issue with the query itself. I’ll now attempt a full run, which should capture the awards you found.

🚨BREAKING: Approximately $10 Million saved by cutting federal grant dollars to the Center for Internet Security for duplicative services already offered by the government & dubious election work. Keep up the good work @CISAgov.
