by Tony Wikrent “A curtain of darkness is settling over our nation.” Heather Cox Richardson, Apr 11, 2026 [Letters from an American, April 10, 2026] It feels like something shifted in the United States this week after President Donald J. Trump threatened on Tuesday that “a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought […]

Not precisely a surprise, given they sent Kushner, Witkoff and Vance to negotiate. Apparently Vance talked to Trump six times and Iran says that the negotiations were going OK until Netanyahu called Vance, then suddenly it seemed like the American delegation was negotiating for Israel. More to the point, the US wanted the Strait open […]

AI coding tools have evolved fast — from inline suggestions to full-blown agents that can scaffold modules, write tests, and refactor code across files. But what does that actually mean for your day-to-day work, and where should a seasoned developer start?
Our next session on Tuesday, April 14th at 11:30am Pacific (what is that in my timezone?) is led by Scott Falconer of the Drupal AI Initiative, breaks down the current landscape of AI-assisted coding into clear, practical tiers: inline completions (think autocomplete on steroids), chat-in-your-IDE copilot workflows, and the newer "agentic" coding loops where AI plans and executes multi-step tasks with your oversight. We'll look at what each style is good at, where it falls down, and — critically — how much control you keep at each level.

Coming out of DrupalCon Chicago 2026, we're starting the #ai-learners club, where we share tips and tricks and answer questions about how to use Drupal and AI together. Think of it kind of like Drupal Dojo, but for AI.
For our inaugural meeting, the topic is: What's your Drupal + AI setup?
Join us on Wednesday, April 8 at 9:30am Pacific (What is that in my timezone?) for a live "show and tell" of what folks who attend are using for things like: models, modules, skills, tools, agents, IDEs, workflows... whatever! Let's share what's working and what's not and try and help each other level up. :)
Note: The session will be recorded and uploaded afterwards for those who can't make it live. But it's way more fun if you can! ;)

How do I find my local H&R Block?
Enter your zip code on our website to find an H&R Block near you. Alternatively, just drive by any property that used to contain a Spirit Halloween. Can I file my taxes online?
You can, but it hurts our feelings when you use our services without coming in to talk to us. Fine. I’ll come in person. But what happens after my taxes are filed?
You will possibly receive a refund via direct deposit once your tax dollars are deposited into the steaming gullet of the Great War Pig. I’m sorry, what?
The Great War Pig. Is that his name or his job?
His name is unspeakable, though you know it in the rotten depths of your heart.

- - - Fishing apparel mentioned: - A tarpon-wear shirt
- Old bib-front overalls
- Bow ties and club blazers
- Jean shorts
- - - It will come as no surprise to longtime readers of Thomas McGuane’s work that while I was speaking with him, I was moved by his kindness, his incisive insight, and, above all, his mischievous sense of fun. The craic was exceptional. We are both writers, anglers, and equestrians, and we’d both recently fished for Atlantic salmon in arctic Norway. We laughed a lot during our conversation: in helplessness, in disbelief, in despair, and at the inherent comedy of life.
