Don't Let It Go

Just a quick post to let you know about an auction I’m currently running on eBay for a special copy of the Tenth Anniversary Edition of Atlas Shrugged. This copy is #1/2000, inscribed by Ayn Rand to her husband, Frank O’Connor. The auction ends on April 10, and there are several photos of the book posted in the auction listing, which you can find by clicking here.

a haiku

“Nice encryption there…

except we’ll need a back door.”

“What encryption? Where?”

(Inspired by Apple’s decision to pull its iCloud end-to-end encryption feature from the UK rather than install a back door. Reference: https://techcrunch.com/2025/02/21/apple-pulls-icloud-end-to-end-encryption-feature-for-uk-users-after-government-demanded-backdoor/)

A poem

They say that anonymity

Can spare you ignonimity

But a second’s contemplation shows

They haven’t thought it through.

.

.

While the whole world’s unaware

Of whose soul has been laid bare

The response—or lack thereof—received

Is wholly known to you.
