I have absolutely no idea what this references, but I just would like to put on the record how phenomenally descriptive it nonetheless is

Major AML fine against a corporation not currently a political target of the administration? Such things still happen. I am gladdened.

People - and by this I mean everybody from doctors to patients to insurers - need to get it in their head that “has a neural/psychological component” does not mean “fake”.

This is really good, deeply researched and empathetic to all involved. Wired continues to do grade A journalism.

Wittgenstein, first half: “I have concretely described all reality and logic.” Wittgenstein, second half: “LOL that was dumb”

This is a form of retaliation against someone for speaking out. He knew he would be punished, buy that punishment does not include unnecessarily strict confinement (which is barred by military law). www.military.com/air-force-ma...

Almost always, innit? Now that you mention it, I have no idea how bad a number the Trump admin has done on the FedMag corps. You hear talk about Senate fights over District Judges, but Magistrates are under the radar.

I assume we’re going to find out who it was as a matter of public record?

there is so much work to do we have barely scratched the surface of what’s possible or desirable here the most interesting stuff is still ahead of us. the bulk of LLM stuff is *junk* because the art and science of augmenting the will and imagination was discarded by the computing industry

For any given topic, most people don't really don't really care and just want to go along with whatever's normal. You want "normal" to be your side.

Every single aspect of this fails the "are you fucking kidding me" sniff test for bullshit when only ONE facet should've been completely fatal to the warrant application before a judge. Who the fuck signed off on this? What did HSI say in the application? Who ordered this? Who knew about it when?

When Dems talk about the Ilhan Omar situation, they need to stop using language that implies that Omar might have done anything wrong. Trump is not "investigating" Omar. They are trying to denaturalize and deport a sitting Congressmember by scrutinizing decades old paperwork from when she was a kid

I said this in a thread last night and in a thousand threads before it, but you really are doing the work of those who would destroy democracy and the rule of law when you are a doomer. You can be aware of — and vigorously oppose — the lawlessness of this administration without insisting on doom.

By the day, Bill Kristol’s willingness to confront reality as A Media Figure becomes more and more notable. Table stakes, you’d think, but apparently the whole rest of them are riven by Georgetown Cocktail Party Brain all the way to death.

These facts about network traffic, treated as true, don’t seem to refute the claim that various right-wing internet chatter has suddenly inexplicably vanished?

Realistically? If the executive breaks the law, the legislative can impeach, or failing that cut off funding. Those are plenary powers; everything else is either justifying the first two or else just screwing around.

The line “We be takin’ care of business” from Takin’ Care of Business seems to actually be a grammatically correct usage of the AAVE Continuous Be. Huh.
