Next Monday night, you can either go to hear Peter Thiel talk about the Anti-Christ in downtown Nashville - or you can walk down the street to the Public Library to hear @bradleyonishi.bsky.social and I talk about Thiel - and Brad’s new book. There are just a few tickets left.

That’s a horrifying hypothesis as not everyone is good at communicating (or able to) on a device for anything non-human to be weighing their literal lives by deciding if they are genuine. Would a front desk person at an urgent care do this? Not without additional guidance.

I’ve been forced into a health care app where the Ai assis asks a ton of questions and then sends a simple one line “patient needs to speak to you” message to the doc, without forwarding any of the info. Maybe people feel more listened to this way? I’m not sure, but it’s infuriating to me.

Two pension funds are part of the backing and administration behind the database. Looks like white hat investor behavior.

Corporations and billionaires don’t want you to know what political messages they are funding. That’s why they make the info so difficult to find. PaidForBy.info changes the game. It’s 100% free to use. Please check it out and spread the word!

Being removed from roadless doesn‘t automatically open anything up to logging. It makes logging easier in some cases, where roads are possible to build or trees can sell. The roadless rule never specifically banned cutting trees, anyway.

I can see the hotspots on the satellite now and several other more responsible accounts have shared other videos. Still wouldn’t ever amplify Nawfal. He’s unreliable poison.

I don’t know if the video is actually Spokane tonight (it certainly could be), but I’d be cautious sharing anything by Nawfal. He’s a notorious spreader of unverified info and pure misinformation and he always gets amplified by Elon.

Would SC though not be far more representative of independent voters that we need in the fall then, say, OR or NY? I’m not disagreeing that a randomized selection would be good - but SC far more represents the average November voter than blue states. And we don’t have many purple states left.

I’m not sure why SC is a bad pick. It at least has diversity compared to Iowa and NH. Why does it matter that it’s majority republican, either? After all, it’s a primary. Im curious.

Well, true, but at least that particular woman had some agency. I should finish the Apple TV series - it was immediately diverse and aimed modern sensibilities. But I dropped it part way into episode two.

- Solaris - Stanisław Lem - The Vanished Birds, Simon Jimenez - House of Suns, Alastair Reynolds - Revelation Space series is amazing and a personal favorite to reread each year - gothic space opera - Alastair Reynolds - A Memory Called Empire- Arkady Martine - Martine is sooo good.

I‘m all for requiring philosophy, but the proper response here is requiring a review of the documents and philosophy of the founding fathers, with some Socrates and Mill tossed in for fun.

This is a perfect example why I watch clips. I can’t afford a separate subscription to everything. Clips are the new gateway to discovering what might be worth paying for - in time or money.

Autistic here, and the only way I’ve survived social media and even real life is through and extremely diliberate curation of people and content I allow in. I dip out of my personal pool every now and then (or just read bluesky comments)l and very quickly backpaddle the fk out of there every time.

Used right I think AI could be really powerful and a learning tool. I know it broadens my skills and horizons but it needs to be used with distinct purpose, particularly with kids. Our schools haven’t done great with teaching internet learning so I’m skeptical they’ll do AI responsibly either.

I think (and always have) that Peale probably has a lot to do with who and what Trump is, but it’s zero excuse. Fred T. probably went to Peale church because that form of snake oil extremism excused his own world view - and that helped reinforce it in DT.

It would be interesting to see who skewed left - those old enough to get screwed by Reagan from families not rich enough to benefit from trickledown economics? Or how many of us grew up in the liberal backwash of the hippie era, Nixon and anti-Vietnam sentiment.

The matter-of-fact way she asks what investors should do if Trump destroys Iran. Absolutely wild. "Let's talk about tonight, this deadline that President Trump has set 8 p.m., has threatened to destroy a civilization. How does an investor process that? Is it a bigger upside risk or downside risk?"
