  2. Weekly output: not-so-independent agencies, location privacy, Virginia’s data-center tax, Blue Origin’s return-to-flight plans, civil supersonic flight, astronomy in VR, Backblaze

    The list below would be a lot of published work for a five-workday week, and yet I didn’t write any of those things or deal with edits to them on Friday. The Supreme Court bears much of the responsibility for this pace, the aerospace-industry news cycle did its own part, and then I had two pieces that I’d started weeks before finally get published on the one day that I gave this keyboard a decent rest.

    But wait, there was more: I wrote an extra post for Patreon readers Tuesday about the business calculations I’m working through as I decide if going to Berlin for the IFA tech trade show can pencil out for me.

    6/29/2026: Supreme Court Gives Trump the Green Light to Fire Heads of FTC, Other Agencies, PCMag

    Since I’ve been following President Trump’s attempts to expel the Democratic minority on the Federal Trade Commission, commissioners Alvaro Bedoya and Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, since first writing about this story last March, I felt obliged to cover the Court’s conclusion of this case.

    6/30/2026: Supreme Court: Fourth Amendment Protects Your Phone’s Location History, PCMag

    I felt just as obliged to cover the Court ruling that Google’s Location History tool incurs Fourth Amendment protections–and to note that the majority opinion describes this as if Google hadn’t since turned Location History into an on-device, end-to-end-encrypted feature that Google can no longer access if presented with a “geofence warrant.”

    6/30/2026: The State With the Most Data Centers Will Now Tax Their Energy Use, PCMag

    I had been meaning to write about how Virginia has begun to change its approach to the data centers that now sprawl across Loudoun and Prince William counties. But until the General Assembly reached a belated budget compromise in the closing days of June, I didn’t know what sort of change we’d get.

    7/1/2026: Blue Origin: Here’s How We’ll Return New Glenn to Flight Faster Than Expected, PCMag

    Blue Origin posted an update Tuesday about its plans to resume launches of its New Glenn rocket. But in addition to having my hands full Tuesday, I needed part of Wednesday to take notes from videos of recent discussions–a panel with Blue founder Jeff Bezos and CEO Dave Limp, another panel led by Ars Technica space reporter Eric Berger, and a NASA press conference featuring administrator Jared Isaacman–that yielded some insight into the company’s situation.

    7/2/2026: FAA Moves to Allow Civil Supersonic Flights Over Land, If They’re Quiet Enough, PCMag

    This was my longest story published this week, because it had to cover not only the Federal Aviation Administration’s opening of a rulemaking process to legalize commercial supersonic flights over land but also the current state of affairs at Boom Supersonic and NASA’s debut of flight tests of its “low-boom” X-59 aircraft. That was a lot of detail to pack in, and I missed one error in my copy until a few hours after the story posted–I had described Boom’s XB-1 testbed aircraft as a single-engine plane when I meant single-seat.

    7/3/2026: Visiting the stars (and planets, and telescopes) in VR, Ars Technica

    Earlier in June, I spent a fascinating 40 minutes with a computer strapped to my face in a windowless room in downtown D.C., enjoying a VR tour of some of the universe’s more interesting places. I thought that would be a good fit for a site that routinely covers both technology and astronomy, and that’s how I’ve now had two pieces run at Ars this year after going three years since my previous contribution to one of my daily tech-news reads.

    7/3/2026: Backblaze: Backup May Be a ‘Declining’ Business, But We’re Not Backing Away

    This post was originally going to start with my talking to an exec with this computer-backup and cloud-storage firm at the TechEx North America conference in the middle of May, but my having the appointment on my calendar did not prevent me from completely spacing about it. We then punted to having the conversation over video but next had to reschedule the call multiple times. And now that the piece is finally published, we need to correct a few small items in it.
