@aaron_renn having worked political events at every level, I can say that the detail police are often huge entitled jerks and I could very easily see them making restaurant employees feel threatened even if it had nothing to do with them being police generally

Another example of the “we welcome all” blue cities that do their best to ensure conservatives are made to feel very unwelcome. Then they wonder why red state governments dislike them so much.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders@SarahHuckabee

Last week I was having lunch with two other moms at a restaurant when the owner approached a member of the State Police Executive Protection Detail and said my presence made their employees feel threatened and told us to leave. Arkansans are known for their warm hospitality, and while that restaurant didn’t meet that standard, my administration will continue to focus on lifting Arkansans up, not tearing others down.

@trengriffin The left over high bay spaces in Silicon Valley now make incredible venues for building art cars - not to big and the vertical doors needed to drive a two story vehicle in and out

Old school GEO satellites were assembled in a facility that housed the product in a "high bay" as if it was a giant religious icon. PhDs in bunny suits assembled the satellite piece by piece. The legacy manufacturers didn't believe cheaper satellites would result in more profit.
Kyle Cothern@risknc

Arguably satellite manufacturing has been around since 2017 or so, and everything before that was bespoke ornate artisanal crafts, in much the way Ford was the first scale automotive manufacturer, despite cars existing before Ford.

If truly AGI-pilled, the product I'd create would be a Google front page style simple UI, can spawn and merge as many branches as needed, which is connected to everything, on device and off, can access any cloud resources, and which can do whatever is asked by any means necessary

@pitdesi Back to Army St? Fun fact I didn’t know until 5m ago - after the BoS voted to rename it after the labor rapist, there was a ballot measure by voters to rename it back, but it failed!

So are we renaming Cesar Chavez St now or was that treatment just a post hoc rationalization for Marxist historical revisionism and not a principle anyone actually ever cared about?
The San Francisco Standard@sfstandard

The name of late labor leader Cesar Chavez takes on an agonizing dimension, as a years-long New York Times investigation reveals allegations of sexual abuse. 📝: @jonsteinberg31, @allaboutgeorge, @ggreschler, @FitzTheReporter sfstandard.com/2026/03/18/ces…

It is brutal but doing ‘well’ just means nothing in politics though. May make people feel better about all their effort and care to get close but if elections are about improving people lives then winning is what matters and all the chatter about giving voice or fighting a good fight is meaningless. Just like winning the senate - putting up a good showing and not taking a majority does nothing.

@MTabarrok idk Mountain View, CA has a golf course - on prime bay front land. It loses money. The city has to subsidize it with property taxes every year. Total rounds of golf each day? Like ~60. In a city of ~80k. Hardly some huge community benefit. Sure some care. Rip it out!

Airports should develop a backup mechanism to advance money to TSA agents when the government is shut down. Something like an interest free payday loan.

@brezina @rahul @Apple @UPS Had a Uber Courier steal a delivery of breast milk. Uber refused to help in anyway. I found drivers phone number from pickup location log and got police involved but Uber still refused to help in anyway. No charges of any kind.

I had an apple.com-purchased MacBook delivered to my house by courier . They used uber Later that night (3am), the delivery driver came back with his gf and tried to break into my house to steal said laptop. SFPD caught them after we called 911. But attempts to contact apple/uber to prove connect went unanswered. Criminals released

The @apple @UPS delivery scam. If it happened to me, a man who has devoted his adult life to fighting crime at scale, it can happen to you. I ordered a Mac Studio from Apple (~6 week wait, computer now discontinued). UPS driver marks it delivered half a mile away from my house, says "recipient walked up and took delivery from truck." Apple won't refund because UPS marks it delivered (despite dispute) and won't brick it unless PD calls. PD doesn't have time to call. UPS driver keeps the unbricked computer. The perfect scam. The only way out is charging back your credit card and letting Apple thank you for the 0% interest loan for 60 days. It's crazy that in this day and age, it is genuinely a risk to buy a new computer from Apple of all companies. Some crimes are beyond me.

@Nowooski In that situation do you insert more mistakes so you can spend more time together getting them corrected or do you make sure there are no mistakes to impress?
