That's an amicus brief for this case, filed with the Supreme Court by the great-great-grandson of Teddy Roosevelt, a historian who spends a great deal of time explaining the full context of the fourteenth from actual historical record and case law, including (and excoriating) Chase.
A lawyer and commentator for Lawfare declared it the best of the briefs he's seen, and he cited other excellent ones as well that do not rely on Chase.
It's 54 pages, so not for the timid, but I found it a fascinating read and anyone wanting to know the actual history will as well.
I'm just calling it American History X from now on.

This is amazing. Cryptography is truly the sorcery of our age.
A slap on the wrist just confirms FIFA's complicity.
Let's be real, in the US there's only an enforcement system, not a justice system.

A person is lucky to do one thing that affects a huge number of people's lives for the better, and even luckier if they know what it was and have been appreciated for it. Well done, Bram.

Elon announced he was changing Twitters name to better reflect the core values of the company. Twitter is now to become "X Æ A-1488".
If you have a Mastodon account as well, it has the bookmark feature, so in a pinch I can bookmark by boosting and then switching to my Masto account and bookmarking it there. You just need to follow your kbin account from your Masto account.

Oh boy, here we go.
Rest assured, it'll be a slew of LLM output tweaked by unpaid interns this time. That's what this is about.
That really doesn't need to be known, we could tell just from average daily active user counts. If those weren't provided, that's a big red flag on the rest of their numbers because there's no reason not to include those numbers. Active users is the most accurate measure. They might reasonably choose to hype the signups number, but if everyone wants to know actives and it's not provided, that's Meta choosing to hide the information. Not a confident move.
