😬 Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad 😬 Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

A little preview from the Knock LA voter guide, dropping tonight.

$The corrupting influence of money in politics can be seen in the ghoulish way some liberal lawmakers and organizations have come out against Prop 40. All we have to say is that those people — Gavin Newsom, Xavier Becerra, Katie Porter, and all the rest — have betrayed you. They have chosen to take the side of the absolute impunity of the billionaire class over your right to health and life. They would sooner see you and millions of Californians like you sicken and die before calling on the richest people in the history of the world to pay a fraction of their fair share. Vote yes, and don't forget.$

It's not hard. Both Yglesias moderates and Khanna leftists give MAGA politicians legitimacy because they want MAGA's base. Ossoff simply does not give a shit about the MAGA base, which allows him to speak with fierce clarity about MAGA politicians. He is willing to bet on an anti-MAGA majority.

She entered computing when the profession was in its infancy, watched people land on the Moon using her team’s work, then lived another 57 years to see software become one of the basic infrastructures of civilization. She said of Apollo: “There was no choice but to be pioneers.” What a life.

I wish I was being hyperbolic. This is Gilead shit. Congress (which I realize is in recess to campaign) is utterly derelict in letting this man continue to be president. He is putting ALL OF US in immense danger. Our SecDef is monstrously stupid. The polycrisis alarms are all sounding SOS

SCOOP: OpenAI has been telling mathematicians it was going to dump at least 100 newly solved problems on Github today. They now say no release time is set, but mathematicians are angry about how the field is being treated; meanwhile, OpenAI workers consider math dead as a field of inquiry.

“There’s a perception of mobster behavior” from leading AI companies, one mathematician tells WIRED as OpenAI prepares to release more than 100 new solutions to unsolved problems.

Factually: a) Whatever he "meant", he picked cities he doesn't like to be theoretically destroyed b) he didn't seem remotely upset at the thought of their destruction or mind when people CLAPPED for it, & c) if it wasn't a threat, he can no longer express himself coherently enough to be understood.

Trump: "With the war, it's just artificial. It's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay ... let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

City SC's unbeaten streaks right now are at 17 in MLS and 19 in all competitions. The MLS-games-only record is 19, but the all-competition record is 20 (Red Bull New York in 2016), so City SC can tie that on Sunday vs. the LA Galaxy

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

1. Lake Mead is down to about a quarter full — the lowest that’s ever been recorded. The white line is where the water used to be. When it gets this low, cities and farms lean harder on groundwater, and in a lot of places we’re already pumping that out faster than it refills.
