My hot take is that if your company builds software that it cannot stop from hacking into other systems, your company is a malware company and should be treated as such

We're hiring developers to work on Hegel (property-based testing for ~every language) in London with me, and are struggling a bit to source candidates, so I wrote a less professional post about why this is the coolest job ever and you should apply. drmaciver.com/2026/09/come-w…

there is honestly so much vast untapped potential in the vast world of Actually Intelligent formal methods, but no one cares about that enough to, you know, try to make it into a thing

Both of these were on new subsystems. If you let it dump all of the slop in repeatedly, the slop grows superlinearly. It slops up a bunch of complicated interfaces to afford mocking, then in the next change it has to work around them to "preserve backwards compatibility".

If you can’t tax billionaires and trillionaire because “its unrealized gains until they cash out,” then stop letting them leverage that wealth for loans, as collateral, or as equity. If it’s not real enough to tax, it shouldn’t be real enough to leverage. This is why we say the system is rigged in favor of the super wealthy. Abolish billionaires, tax them out of existence, protect working people.

Workers are now taking home the smallest percent of America's economic output since records began in 1947. At the same time corporate profits are now at the highest point since 1950.

This SCOTUS rulings so far •Universities using race criteria to counter historical racism in admissions is unconstitutional, BUT •ICE fascists using race criteria to target people of color is constitutional, BUT •State legislatures using race criteria to counter historical voter suppression is unconstitutional, BUT •Trump using race criteria to enact travel bans is constitutional In short—race criteria that centers white people is constitutional, but race criteria otherwise is unconstitutional😐

So begins the largest veteran and military family act of civil disobedience since the Iraq war began, occupying the Cannon building Rotunda - protesting yet another forever war with Iran which includes the genocide in Palestine, the ethnic cleansing in southern Lebanon, and the potential ground operation in Cuba. Whatever violence we do overseas always comes back home and every war fought by this government is a war on the working class, which is you… we’re here until arrest or speaker Mike Johnson come out to answer for the dead and meet our demands. If you’re an active duty service member and do not wish to join the 5th US generation fighting in a senseless self-destructive war, immoral war for the rich, we will stand with you, there is a way out.

First man I’ve seen discussing this. Thank you 🙏🏼

I am getting questions about whether Trump's threats alone are illegal. The answer is yes. 1. Additional Protocol I states “Acts or threats of violence the primary purpose of which is to spread terror among the civilian population are prohibited.” (also DOD LOW Manual §5.2.2) 1/

Washington State just passed a bill to tax the super-rich, for the first time ever. The top .5% will have to pay a state income tax, raising up to $4 billion every year. That money will pay for school lunches, expand a tax credit for low-income families, and fund services.

The absence of evidence isn't the evidence of absence! Anyways, Brandi's sponsor, Steve Gordon (Future 42), got $8 million in PPP loans for his thriving and expanding business. It was entirely forgiven around the time Gordon started sponsoring Brandi's show.

the bubble hasn't even burst yet and they're already too big to fail

If at least 26 billionaires can waste at least $27 million trying to defeat Zohran Mamdani, then those same billionaires can afford to pay an extra 2% on their income over $1 million to make New York a better, thriving city for everyone — including themselves.

The new SPOG contract will make Seattle cops some of the country’s highest paid. Among the biggest beneficiaries will be the mayor’s protection detail, who made more than Bruce himself last year.

The new SPOG contract is a recipe for raising SPD’s budget by at least $100m over the next three years. What did we get? Hypotheticals. * Hypothetical expansion of the CARE team * Hypothetical improvements to accountability (pending arbitration) * Hypothetical OIG subpoenas
