Contrary to the Internet (which usually is never wrong), I am NOT writing for Mike Flanagan's DARK TOWER.

A British-Egyptian team has made one of the most significant Egyptian archeological finds in recent history: the tomb of pharaoh King Thutmose II, who ruled sometime between 2000 and 1001 BCE. This is the first tomb of a pharaoh unearthed since Tutankhamun’s in 1922.

Typically good thread/summary by Mark, showing again that first, most SCOTUS cases are not about the huge issues that get attention, and second, perhaps because of that, the Court sometimes divides in unexpected ways.
No new grants—but a lot of action—on the Supreme Court's orders list today.
First, Thomas renews his call to overturn the Feres doctrine, which bars servicemembers from suing the government over injuries "incidental" to their service. (I think he's right.)

Bottom of a thread of commentary by on the new sync spec.
The proposal means new writes can be verified with much less storage, leading to cheaper relays.
i look forward to see how the knock on effects of this play out.
my hope— cheap sync makes end applications more on-spec and coherent w/ the network. sync will be better specified, fewer rough edges. cheap relays make the network more multiparty.
that is exactly what we want to see. 10/10
