I’m here for the gloves-off version of Massie. People seem to forget he still has 7 months left in Congress, and at this point there’s probably not much incentive for him to play nice or stay quiet. 😉🔥

@jason_kint Absolutely Schmidt’s background at play here. But students did the same last week at another commencement speech where the speaker was NOT a tech mogul. Also a sentiment I have heard directly from students and recent grads. nytimes.com/2026/05/14/sty…

Yeah. But everyone seems to be analyzing the reaction entirely as a proxy for AI vibe discounting that he also built the largest surveillance advertising biz on the planet using six adjudged illegal monopolies. You’re a journalist informing the public. Those aren’t equal :)
Joanna Stern@JoannaStern

This wasn’t the case a year ago when I gave a commencement speech almost entirely about AI. As I’ve been saying in my book tour, I find this pushback unsurprising and even encouraging.

Age-verification laws designed for iOS & Android are creating headaches for the open-source world, and the Linux community is pushing back. Our founder, Carl Richell, has been one of the voices engaging directly with lawmakers on this. As he testified before a Colorado House committee: "Open-source software ensures that everyone, regardless of age or background, can learn, experiment, and build at the most fundamental level." Colorado just passed an open-source exemption, but similar bills are moving in CA, IL, and NY. @verge has the full story. A gift link to the article is in the comments and is valid for the next 4 days.

A woman in British Columbia, Canada named Bev York noticed back in December 2015 that her garden gnome had gone missing from her front yard. She didn’t think much of it. Eight months later, the gnome reappeared in a plastic bag tied to her gate, along with a hardcover photo book. The book was written from the gnome’s perspective. “Hi, my name is Leopold the traveling gnome,” it began. “One morning back in December 2015, I saw a motorhome toddle along Finlayson Arm Road and I thought to myself, there’s got to be more to life than standing knee-deep in rainwater, being peed on by neighborhood dogs and staring at the same view every single day. So I hopped on.” The rest of the album was photographs of the gnome on a road trip down the west coast of the United States and into Mexico. Beaches, Route 66, the Grand Canyon, margaritas. He came back rebranded as Leopold. Bev never found out who took him. The only clue was a single photo of a toddler cuddling him in the album, and she didn’t recognise the child.
