Twitter actually made me resort to a taking a screenshot to copy the text back out.
Is this what passes for vendor lock-in these days?
Screenshot of a tweet from Pete Hegseth posted shortly after 5pm (DC time) on February, 27, 2026, reading: Anthropic's stance is fundamentally incompatible with American principles. Their relationship with the United States Armed Forces and the Federal Government has therefore been permanently altered. In conjunction with the President's directive for the Federal Government to cease all use of Anthropic's technology, I am directing the Department of War to designate Anthropic a Supply-Chain Risk to National Security. Effective immediately, no contractor, supplier, or partner that does business with the United States military may conduct any commercial activity with Anthropic. Anthropic will continue to provide the Department of War its services for a period of no more than six months to allow for a seamless transition to a better and more patriotic service. America's warfighters will never be held hostage by the ideological whims of Big Tech. This decision is final.
I think it's high time for companies to start wearing “supply-chain risk" like a badge of honor.
Speaks louder than a bunch of company values cooked up by consultants.
A smiling man sitting at a bar and holding sticker that reads: “MongoDB: Snapchat for databases.” He is wearing a plaid shirt that is likely one size too small, and his scrappy beard is working overtime to hide his double chin.
That only took eleven years. #opentowork
Comics retailing legend Greg Ketter standing up to ICE in Minneapolis. Yes, that's tear gas. He's 70 years old.

I would like to hear more about this on his podcast: Between Two Couch Cushions with JD Vance.
The opsec on the part of the videographer is also commendable.
Came across this via @itseieio.bsky.social’s very human comment in www.reddit.com/r/programmin...
Also did you know it's strawberry season in Japan?
This may be the second coffee talking, but assuming you don't care about ARR, I see a market for this in the #IndieWeb community. Maybe let people self-host instances and sell an iOS client.
Also, allow me to be the first human to request integration with @searls.bsky.social's posseparty.com.
OH: #10gen is a state of mind
There is a version of “you” that only exists after your kid wakes you up from a nightmare at 3:30am. 🛌
And here’s the MongoDB #SymfonyCon promo, direct from the stage to your screen: youtu.be/cAyMAjujllM
The MongoDB PHP team created two short videos for #SymfonyCon today.
One will be shown on stage this afternoon, but in the meantime here’s an informational clip on optimal packing algorithms for elephpants: youtube.com/shorts/vjqcT...
OH: “it was Zoom, Montessori preschool”
COVID was a weird time.
Screenshot of a group chat between Jeremy Mikola, Chris Tankersley, and Ben Ramsey. A link to the r/PHP thread on Ryan Weaver’s passing. Followed by Jeremy informing Ben that Davey Shafik left a comment in the thread. Followed by an overheard quote: “He worked harder at living than I’ve ever worked in my life.”

Started watching this the other night and was very satisfied with the footage we saw. 🫱☕️
If anyone is planning to attend Ryan Weaver’s memorial service, a few of us may be organizing a #WurstCon repast Sunday evening (Sept 7). Please reach out if you’re interested.
Ryan Weaver, a Symfony contributor and SymfonyCasts founder/teacher, passed earlier this week after a long and hard fight with a brain tumor. He was a giant in the community ❤️

Is this the butterfly effect of wearing a hotdog hat to #Laracon?

“I should make a house wiki” – @manchuck.bsky.social
This seems to be a recurring product idea 💡
First event in five years not counting the @weaverryan.bsky.social reunion in Chicago this past March. We’ll see how it goes. Looking forward to seeing @naderman.de, @mavrck.com, and @manchuck.bsky.social at least.
Breaking out the vintage swag for #Laracon Denver. Come find me at the 10gen booth 😉
I appreciated the candor in your academic history, having withdrawn from Suffel’s CS630 (Automata and Formal Languages) on two separate occasions
A screenshot including the alt text on the original roux photo. This certainly is getting very meta.
That alt text tho.
