After Sally Rooney promised her royalties to Palestine Action, her publisher said it would stop selling her books in the U.K. You don’t have to agree with the author to see that Britain’s suppression of speech is a problem, George Packer argues: theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1…

Wrote about watching YCSE at a moment when the tech industry has really adopted a zealous, faith-based approach to the future and who’ll get us there. It’s about the cult of the builder, vc betting, and the problem with ‘never wrong, just early’ theatlantic.com/technology/2…

I wanted to share an interesting article by Malcolm Gladwell, entitled “America Has a Policing Shortage,” in the Atlantic. An inconvenient truth! The unofficial motto of the LAPD during the time I served as Chief, according to the current Chief Jim McDonnell, was “too few who for too long have been asked to do too much with too little.” Even the NYPD with 35,000 officers is understaffed by thousands. To have equivalent staffing to the NYPD, LAPD would need 18,000. McDonnell is doing a fantastic job with 8400, I had 9200 when I lead the LAPD. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1…

"A world in which the White House is allied to the Kremlin was, until now, the stuff of paranoid fiction. Manchurian candidates and red presidents were fantasies, dark tales that Americans told themselves, like ghost stories around a campfire. But this alliance now exists." theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1…
