"Labour has taken a blow. But Reform UK has been shown up. When tested, their movement offers nothing but grievance, paranoia and imported culture-war nonsense. No answers. No humility. Just blame. And this is why Farage’s behaviour matters beyond one by-election."

'Stop looking back in anger, Nige. Manchester rejects Trumpism'

Detailed map reveals groundwater levels across the U.S.
How much fresh water is in the United States? It's a tough question, since most of the water is underground, accessible at varying depths.

Knowing how much groundwater is available at specific locations is critical to meeting the challenges of water scarcity and contamination.

I love that so many Americans turned out to not just protest policies that hit personally,

Glow up or grow up? Times columnists Anita Chabria and Mark Z. Barabak look back and assess whether 2025 was good for America or an unmitigated disaster.

Totally normal situation:
Ruh 🐱 is eating from the bowl. Mr Ek 🐱 comes through the window. He walks up to the bowl. She notices him and stops eating to sniff his snout. Ek uses the opportunity to start eating the food. Ruh looks at me surprised.

My chat with CEO Dylan Field ahead of today's earnings call. Also: Snap loses its head of Specs right before the big launch, and OpenAI poaches another key Meta exec.

If you’re a mediocre manager / executive / admin / leader, what this feels like is •you• have a brilliant idea that will fix things or save a bazillion dollars or boost the metrics or whatever, but all these annoying underling keep telling you that you can’t do that for reasons that you don’t understand and that make no sense to you and you suspect they’re kind of making up.

I cleaned up/firmed up my scaffold project to have tests, better file creation model, better docs etc.
Scaffold can be used to render many files from a template source - imagine you have a scaffold to bootstrap a Go project.
Combine this with interactive forms and you can have a interactive question-answer session to start up new projects.
I also added a CLI tool that lets you just use these features interactively.
