John Gruber diving deep into the changes from Gulf of Mexico to the other name:
…until Trump’s executive action, there was no controversy, zero, none, nada, anywhere in the world, amongst any group of people, regarding the name of the Gulf of Mexico.
(…)
This whole thing, needless to say, sucks. It’s profoundly stupid, and the aspects that aren’t stupid are jingoistic.
Beyond the controversy, it’s a great dive into the ramifications of the decision, and a worthy analysis of the grand scheme of things. I swear, this shit is so tiring!
Perfect timing — I guess they were waiting for the AI Summit but French startup Mistral behind the French/European AI (Mistral) just updated and upgraded their platform. Much faster and more powerful. Gonna give it a try for work and play 😊
Well… @ACMomento doesn’t yet support the basketball “Coupe de France” but last night was a nice and simple victory against JDA Dijon in the Quarter Finals round.

More and more, the notion of the classic American breakfast—bacon, eggs, toast, milk, coffee, and a glass of orange juice—is beginning to seem like a snapshot of a bygone era.
Not only is the supply of orange juice becoming shaky, but so is that of eggs, milk, and coffee (not to mention other goods, such as chocolate and olive oil). None of this means that we’ll have to go without these foods anytime soon. But for everyday Americans, it will likely mean having less.
It’s hard not to look at this with a cynical “the writing has been on the wall, and you could have done something to prevent it but now all you can do is prepare yourselves for a different world you’ll have to adapt to because you’ve acted so unreasonably for so long as a country — and to some extent for at least 2 generations.”
