What @… said:
Providing employment after deployment = supporting troops
Providing housing = supporting troops
Destigmatizing mental health care = supporting troops
Preventing armed conflict = supporting troops
You know what’s NOT supporting troops? Starting wars as political cover for a failing president. Deploying National Guard just to terrorize people and provoke a backlash. Issuing illegal orders. •That• is not supporting troops.

These were my favorite movies of 2025. Pretty much all horror, sci-fi, comedy. There's still a couple I need to see from this year (Cold Storage!) but these are all my favorites as of now.

including "Doctors Without Borders" and CARE,
from operating in the Gaza Strip
for failing to comply with new registration rules.
Israel says the rules are aimed at preventing Hamas and other militant groups from infiltrating the aid organizations.

This was written by an old friend and I found it pretty packed with good info. It’s also an example of using NotebookLM for research and content development. I found this inspiring enough to give it a try. I’ve found that it is a “Centaur" enabling tech that helps one to create on their own the overall content and leaving details to the NotebookLM tooling.

SLOs Can’t Catch a Black Swan: A Classification Framework for Thinking About Incidents -Geoff White
"Your SLOs can be green, and your systems can still be falling over. That doesn’t mean SLOs are broken. It means they were never designed to describe every class of risk we encounter in complex systems.
I’ve released version 1.0 of SLOs Can’t Catch a Black Swan as an open, living framework hosted on GitHub.
This is not a book you read once, and it’s not something you consult in the middle of an outage. It’s a way to think more clearly about incidents—across the incident lifecycle.”
