Senate Democrats are increasingly concerned that President Donald Trump is considering striking Iran without seeking authorization from Congress
— or even filling them in on his plans.
Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Virginia) is mounting a last-ditch push to force a vote as soon as next week
to restrain Trump from attacking Iran without Congress’s approval.
Other Senate Democrats say the White House has not briefed them on its plans for a potential strike.
And some are warn…

The real magic is learning a few tricks from those performance talks (like switching from walltime to measure to measuring throughout, a nice mental model change, among others), how easy flamegraphs have become in Instruments, and how good the UI to support it has become.

Many people are detained at U.S. airports for reasons they find arbitrary and mysterious.
I got lucky—when I was stopped by Customs and Border Protection last week, after flying to Los Angeles from Melbourne, a border agent told me, explicitly and proudly, why I’d been pulled out of the customs line.
