s/o to @tcraggs22.bsky.social for being the best editor & allowing me to re-alive my 2012 undergrad thesis in this form

wrote a blog about the pool!

who's doing the profile of brian chesky (not pigeonholed into an airbnb article) and his preternatural tendency to associate with our most controversial ceos

does emily sundberg not realize she’s right wing

I used Claude Cowork to build my new website I wade into the AI and labor discourse

This is me joining the club of people who blog about tech and reference their tech worker partner in said blog (the club consists of Casey Newton)

“Dude, the Internet.” Prestige Silicon Valley television.

traveled back in time to both 1990s internet-as-utopia culture and 2015 internet-as-dystopia culture via AMC's Halt and Catch Fire for Dirt, which perhaps smartly does not have a bluesky presence.
