    Another amicus brief is from the whistleblower who disclosed to Congress how intentionally USPS is working to disenfranchise eligible, lawful voters. The brief is VERY detailed. Available at supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/26/.

  15. While the US Supreme Court aggressively slashes into every US corruption law, the SEC and DOJ have all but stopped enforcing one of the remaining laws, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Not a single new proceeding brought in 2Q24.

    "Classes teach you all about advanced topics within CS, from operating systems to machine learning, but there’s one critical subject that’s rarely covered, and is instead left to students to figure out on their own: proficiency with their tools."
