Inside the Five Days That Remade the Supreme Court

For the past decade, the Supreme Court has relied on a rushed and secretive system to make major rulings on issues from immigration to the presidential power. Now, a New York Times investigation brings to light the precise moment when that system began. Jodi Kantor and Adam ...

There’s New Evidence for How Loneliness Affects Memory in Old Age

A longitudinal study found that loneliness is more closely linked to lapses in immediate and delayed recall than to the overall speed of cognitive decline.

Trump Accidentally Admits What He Really Thinks of MAGA Voters

Donald Trump just erupted at MAGA allies for opposing his war. In one tirade, he attacked Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly and others as “FAKE MAGA.” In another, he slammed them as “Low IQ.” Similarly, his pollster, John McLaughlin, claimed the MAGA base “doesn...

How we lost the living Now

How we lost the living Now

Before 1840, noon in Bristol happened about ten minutes after noon in London, and nobody much cared. The railway needed a common minute or it couldn't run - and that common minute is now a common nanosecond, shipped in real time.

Crossword

Bonus: WordCamp Asia

Luke goes solo to WordCamp Asia and records a bonus episode of Crossword. He narrates his contributor day experience, monologues delightfully through day one and two, and, sadly, avoids all cricket references. A special thanks to Kinsta for sponsoring this episode.

Crossword

Finale

Luke and Jonathan bring season 10 to a close. Jonathan attempts to reflect on the Crossword decalogy and Luke isn’t having it. They end up talking about AI instead which, of course, was much more interesting.

Manton Reece Supports Webmention Valid

Humanoid robot runs a half marathon fast. I’m actually impressed because it just feels like it would fall over at least a few times. But it’s not relevant to human runners… A car can finish a marathon more quickly than a human too! 🤪

Manton Reece Supports Webmention Valid

Nice story on the Spurs in The New Yorker:

Last season, the team had traded for De’Aaron Fox, an All-Star guard in his prime, which appeared odd to some—wasn’t he too old to be on Wembanyama’s timeline? Now it seemed like a stroke of genius.

Game 1 tonight vs. the Blazers. Excited. Nervous too. 🏀

Allow Arthur Fils To Reintroduce Himself

Allow Arthur Fils To Reintroduce Himself

It's been a long road back to the top for Arthur Fils.

In the second round of last year's French Open, hometown hero Arthur Fils sent the gathered Parisians into hysterics when he downed Jaume Munar in a thrilling fifth set. At this moment, anyone observing a screaming, shirtless Fils—just 20 years old and ranked 14th in the world—would have seen a player who seemed likely to continue rising up the ranks of men's tennis, and right on time. The Changeover thesis was about to be proved almost stultifyingly correct. What more coherent way could there be to balance men's tennis out than to have a volcanic, expressive Frenchman join the laconic Italian and the puppydog-exuberant Spaniard currently dominating the sport?

Marc Malkin, Variety:

Jessica Chastain says Apple TV is finally going to release her political thriller series “The Savant.” [...]

“Before it was like, ‘I don’t know if we’re going to see it,’ but now I can say, ‘We’re going to see it,’” Chastain told me exclusively on Saturday at the Breakthrough Prize ceremony in Santa Monica.

As for when, sources tell me that Apple is planning for a July release.

WorkOS FGA: The Authorization Layer for AI Agents

workos.com/blog/agents-need-authorization-not-just-authentication?utm_source=daringfireball&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=q22026

My thanks to WorkOS for sponsoring last week at DF. Every AI agent demo looks magical, but most hit a wall in enterprise deployment. It’s not model quality or latency. It’s authorization. Authentication proves an agent’s identity. Authorization defines its blast radius.

The winners in enterprise AI won’t have the most features. They’ll be the ones enterprises can safely trust. Learn how WorkOS FGA scopes that blast radius with resource-level permissions, and read their deep dive for more.
