I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC

I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.

I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

A keynote about the EU Cyber Resilience Act at the #KubeCon #CloudNativeCon EU couldn't be more appropriate!

Happy to see it there and that we start collectively discussing the implications, how to comply, etc.!

Thanks @eddieknight.dev and @michaellieberman.bsky.social for bringing that topic 🙂

Are you confused about the CRA? Check out @mikeneeds.rest and @eddieknight.dev's #KubeCon keynote on Friday morning.
Confusion remains around the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)! 17% of non-commercial OSS developers wrongly assume it applies to them, while 59% are unsure. Learn if it applies to you in our full report: www.linuxfoundation.org/research/cra...

If you're wondering where we stand on politics coverage, we're not slowing down, or stopping anytime soon.

Some words from our Global Editorial Director @katie-drummond.bsky.social:
I had the privilege of talking to @apnews.com about WIRED's Elon Musk and politics coverage.

Most important thing: We're not slowing down, we're not stopping, and we're going to cover this story, relentlessly, for as long as we need to.

After testing OpenAI and Gemini models on the 3 puzzle problems proposed in January on my blog, it is time to look at how Claude models answer them. Tested only versions 3 and 3.5 since I ran the scripts back in Jan, but even so the models performed quite well.

How do Claude models perform on the 2025 AI puzzle competition?
In this article I read 2.5 million characters output by Claude models to score them on the 3 problems I proposed in the previous articles.
