We start off on a somber note as news of horrifying attacks at Brown and in Sydney trickle in. On a lighter note, Jay is excited to see that Lily Allen is on SNL this weekend, Marco Rubio declares war on Calibri, Marcin Wichary wants to see shift delimiters in markup languages, and we ponder the fate of the Twitter Time capsule before abruptly ending the show when the laptop battery dies. Enjoy!

Elon wants to break up the EU. JD Vance is looking ahead to 2028. The negatives of the positive feedback loop of ELon and his enablers. Bryan Cantrill and Oxide's take on writing and reading in the age of LLMs. Transcribing podcasts with Whisper.cpp. Analyzing Twitter archives using ChatGPT.

Trump wants to jail and/or execute his enemies. Kash Patel is spending taxpayer money to jet around the country while literally SWAT-ing his girlfriend. The CEO of Roblox goes full cringe on a podcast. Jack Dorsey (and everyone else on Twitter) gets doxxed.

We kick things off with a hot mic, a bit of an echo, and then don't talk about David Harbour before getting into X traffic inflation, Dan Scavino and Hannah Aendt, the apparent appearance of a blue wave, before closing with a thing or two about restaurants.

A hero is a sandwich but is also a guy who throws a sandwich at ICE goons during the invasion of DC. The MAGA Secret Police show up at a Gavin Newsom rally. Also teeth, teeth, teeth, TEETH, TEETH, TEETH, TEETH!

Jay and Ian talk about how to grow a language, the JVM Language Summit, new features in Java 25, and how long it takes to get to the other side of the planet.

Trump continues to act like a fascist. Jen Easterly is denied a West Point position based on Laura Loomer's Tweets. There is a doom^H^H^H^H hyperloop coming to Nashville. We experience profound technical difficulties.

Jay and Ian are back after a few weeks of undeserved vacation. They kick things of with technical difficulties and then get into Vine's disturbing rebirth as an something something 'AI'. Sequoia's Shaun Maguire is still a terrible person, and GrowSF's Garry Tan is bad at economics/math. Trump continues to wage war on the poor. In good news, yet another study shows (black) coffee is good for you.

Zohran Mamdani, a new hope for the Democrats? Garry Tan is cooked. America is in the Upside Down.

Jack Dorsey is getting into vibe coding and intellectual posturing. Elon and Trump are getting divorced. 2000 troops from the National Guard are being deployed to Los Angeles.
