In a surprise twist, the Epstein files released the attorney general.

I wanted to share a bunch of my favorite hidden and under-utilized features in Claude Code. I'll focus on the ones I use the most. Here goes.

🚨BREAKING: Berkeley researchers spent 8 months inside a tech company watching how employees actually use AI. The promise was simple: AI will save you time. Do less. Work smarter. The opposite happened. Workers didn't use AI to finish early and go home. They used it to take on more. More tasks. More projects. More hours. Nobody asked them to. They did it to themselves. The researchers sat inside the company two days a week for 8 months. They watched 200 employees in real time. They tracked work channels. They conducted 40+ interviews across engineering, product, design, and operations. Here's what they found. AI made everything feel faster, so people filled every gap. They sent prompts during lunch. Before meetings. Late at night. The natural stopping points in the workday disappeared. People ran multiple AI agents in the background while writing code, drafting documents, and sitting in meetings simultaneously. It felt like momentum. It felt productive. But when they stepped back, they described feeling stretched, busier, and completely unable to disconnect. 83% said AI increased their workload. Not decreased. Increased. 62% of associates and 61% of entry-level workers reported burnout. Only 38% of executives felt the same strain. The people doing the actual work absorbed the damage while leadership celebrated the productivity numbers. Then came the trap nobody saw coming. When one person uses AI to take on extra work, everyone else feels like they're falling behind. So the whole team speeds up. Nobody formally raises expectations. But the new pace quietly becomes the default. What AI made possible became what was expected. The researchers gave it a name: workload creep. It looks like productivity at first. Then it becomes the new baseline. Then it becomes burnout. AI was supposed to give you your time back. Instead it's eating more of it. And the worst part? You're doing it to yourself. Voluntarily.

One of my former research assistants was killed by ICE in Minneapolis today😢 Alex was the kindest, sweetest human and a ICU nurse with a bright future ahead of him May his soul rest in peace and this senseless carnage stop💔

Indiana was the worst team in college football for 150 years and then they let teams start paying players and they immediately became No. 1 and the only conclusion to draw is they were the only ones who didn’t realize you could pay players under the table for the first 150 years

Man, this guy has a big smile and is full of joy and enthusiasm. He’s also a fucking moron. Sadly, this deserves a watch.

Do not look away.

@TeamTurboTax there’s a bug in TurboTax showing I have additional taxes paid in 2024 that never happened. Support couldn’t find problem, and resolution desk hung up on me. Can someone check the backend system on my return?

@BillSimmons @BillSimmons while all true and I’m excited for new ownership… he saved the team from moving, never once threatened to move for 30 years, and never asked for a new arena. That’s something no one from BOS/LA will ever understand.

Historic run for Glen Taylor: 30 years, but only 2 seasons with a playoff series win. Plus, no NBA Finals appearances, a huge scandal (Joe Smith), a slew of truly horrible trades/signings/hirings, and in the end, he couldn’t even sell the T-Wolves correctly. He’ll be missed.

Man, if only there was some way to possibly have seen this coming. Like if Jimmy had ever done something line this before🙄

@Kasparov63 @Kasparov63 completely agree with this take, but seems a bit hypocritical when saying the Gaza civilian toll is acceptable.

Russia murdering more innocent civilians would scarcely be news, unfortunately. Russia shot down MH-17 over ten years ago and has still not faced justice.

Perhaps they thought it was Santa.

@alec_lewis Read the ESPN insider piece posted the other day. It’s pretty clear he can’t move.

I still don't understand this. Kirk Cousins play-action dropback % last year: 31.4% (1st in NFL) Kirk Cousins play-action dropback % this year: 13.8% (32nd in NFL) Why?

Arlington County asked residents to name the county snow plows this winter and they did not disappoint ❄️

if you're not happy single, you won't be happy in a relationship. true happiness comes from building dashboards that give executives deeper insight into critical business functions

Kevin McCarthy on Matt Gaetz: “I'll give you the truth why I'm not speaker. It's because one person, a member of Congress, wanted me to stop an ethics complaint because he slept with a 17-year-old.”

Delete legacy code ✊🏻😫

Appointing 2 people to do 1 job is good start to “department of government efficiency”

What a devastating indictment of our country.

Yesterday, when my daughter vomited her entire breakfast on me as I was holding her, I realized that 20 years of waking up and reading political news had prepared me for that moment.

As it turns out, the same gentleman who asked Trump about January 6th last night also asked Kamala Harris a question at her Univision town hall last week. Watch them back-to-back. Something tells me Mr. González is undecided no more.
