They are emailing us specifically because they have a tech problem, don’t know where to turn, and ChatGPT is telling them to contact us, is writing the email for them, and is compiling ‘evidence packets,’ ‘forensic trails,’ ‘evidence dossiers,’ ‘original correspondence,’ a ‘bounded set of primary records,’ and a series of questions we are supposed to investigate.”

  2. When Apple announced there was going to be a folding-screen iPhone, I figured there were two possible explanations. The first was that they had figured out how to solve an industrial design problem with folding-screen phones that nobody else had been able to solve. The other was that the days when Apple would let a market niche slide because they couldn't come up with a product to fill it that met their standards were over.

    So, yeah

  5. “In a sex-segregated era when women and men spent much of their time in separate spaces, the Astor House Ladies’ Ordinary provided the rare place where a sit-down meal could be had for a solo female traveler, a group of women friends, or a mixed-gender party.

    “This 1843 breakfast menu speaks to 19th century New York’s same-sex dining culture. The offerings probably weren’t much different than the menu in the men’s dining room. But if you were an upper-class woman in search of a morning meal, here’s what you could order.

    “Options abound, with an emphasis on meat and seafood—like boiled mutton, boiled tongue, and the mysterious ‘small birds, Italian style.’”

  10. "I wrote a response to Adam Bonica and Jake Grumbach’s piece in The New Republic about all the problems with the [Democratic Party fundraising] system. While I don’t agree with every point, it’s a very valuable article and points toward at least two straightforward if challenging-to-implement reforms. But we also shouldn’t lose sight of what an amazing accomplishment and how incredibly needed Democratic small donor fundraising is. It is a genuinely mass-based, non-oligarch system of funding political campaigns at a time when the Supreme Court has given billionaire oligarchs free rein to buy campaigns and offices at scale."

  23. “Entering detachedly, observing a person, you can sometimes so travel down the filament that you might wake up to find yourself walking off inside them, become them, so much by sympathy, yourself forgotten, and seeing the world from where they stand. Or looking more personally you catch the gleams of response to you and break into flower, building the arches of which our human life is made. A gleam from them gives you a foothold, one from you gives them more root, till the branches can grow and each stands, a tree, in the other’s atmosphere. This between you is an arch, by which each is drawn out upright; beneath which the heavenly bird flies, whose roost is not on this sphere.

    “Held in your hand a person may blossom, break open and become transfigured. If everyone knew how ravishing they were the street would be blind with light.”
