    &quot;Write Once. Run Forever.&quot; is a fantastic documentary on the #Java programming language. Worth watching no matter what your favorite programming language is. https://youtu.be/ZqGSg4b_cZA?si=0AwXtIlxwzZ5Puvw

    Spotted this #Twitter logo in #Goa this evening. I’m glad someone is putting a classic design to good use.

    Glad I renewed my passport last year. What a monstrosity. Also the new passport looks awful too.

    &amp;quot;The F.B.I. director, Kash Patel, came tearing across the hallway with two men in tow; his girlfriend was hiding in a room with another man who was holding her hand.&amp;quot; Whatever the follow-ups to this story are, I am looking forward to the &amp;quot;Kash Patel is a beta cuck&amp;quot; memes. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2026/04/25/us/trump-correspondents-dinner-shooting?unlocked_article_code=1.d1A.QfS4.lkc8GLZA8T0p&amp;amp;smid=nytcore-ios-share

    Virgina is for lovers of #XML. (Virginia’s license plate format is ABC-1234 [3 letters + 4 digits] so this is not a vanity plate, just a lucky Virginian helping spread the good word)

    Drove up 395 from #Disneyland to #Truckee with the fam today. I had never driven that stretch before. It was brain-meltingly beautiful. The Eastern Sierras are not fucking around! 🏔️🫠

    Someone should acquire #Sun^H^H^H Oracle Labs. Or #Oracle should spin it out as a separate company. I would love to see the #Graal ecosystem be an independent player in the Java/managed runtime space. There is too much #Java value locked up in a company that seems to be competing with itself.

    On today&amp;#39;s show we tried really, uh, hard not to kink shame Donald Trump, but like @jay pointed out, the actual author of the President&amp;#39;s horny &amp;quot;Truth&amp;quot; was most likely Dan Scavino. So I guess we tried to not kink shame Dan? 🤔 We also got into some early #Twitter innovations discussing a never-launched service called &amp;quot;Harvey&amp;quot;. https://archive.org/details/ian-and-jay-space-out-2026-03-29 #IanAndJaySpaceOut

    Look, both David Sacks *and* #GrowSF suck. In fact, I had always assumed David Sacks was a sponsor of GrowSF’s pro-cop, anti-progressive agenda. https://bird.makeup/users/davidsacks/statuses/2040496734309421085
