🧵🧵🧵 The NY Times posted a 15-minute video today in which I got to tell NYT what’s wrong with its coverage. They said they saw my critical posts on Bluesky and invited me to do a video with them to air my grievances. Weird, right? I didn’t hold back. I blasted their sanewashing of MAGA extremism.

Hey California! Be careful this election because the big money creeps are trying to trick you (again).
There's a trap on your ballot in California. Here's how to get past it.
1. Prop 40: 250 billionaires pay with they owe so hospitals, schools, and food assistant survive the federal cuts. Vote yes.
2. Props 41 and 42: paid for by billionaires to cancel prop 40. Vote no.
3. Tell one person, because the confusion is the plan.
Yes I'm 40. No on 41 and 42.

I have pasted my own writing, from 2023 and earlier, into Pangram and had it claim it was AI. And I know it was not because a) I wrote it and b) it was before ChatGPT. So... I don't know what to tell you other than even Pangram isn't perfect?

You should have written about how AI writing detectors are not reliable (or at least researched and understood how they work and reliably generate false positives) before accusing a writer of using AI based off the results of one scan from one tool.

Using AI tools to detect AI writing is a fool's game. You may as well just roll some dice. That no-one involved in the Atlantic article seemed to understand this is, alas, either incompetence or malevolence on their part. Or maybe both! Who knows, perhaps they contain multitudes.

Two debating styles: 1. El-Sayed. Acts like a skilled boxer as he throws jabs early and often at his opponent until they are weakened and then opens it up. 2. Ossoff. Pulls the sink from the green room in the back and starts beating his opponent with it right away. Does not stop until its over.

Wall Street Journal reported on a 2024 New Year’s Eve celebration where Ken Paxton partied in Dubai with two fugitives and a woman who wasn’t his wife www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
"As fireworks exploded over the Burj Khalifa skyscraper to welcome 2025, Paxton and his girlfriend Tracy Duhon watched from a luxury high-rise balcony full of people, according to a video of the gathering reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, details of which were contained in court filings and confirmed by people familiar with the matter.

Among those at the event with Texas’ top law-enforcement official were two Americans who had been indicted months before on federal healthcare-fraud charges but failed to return to the U.S., Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail, according to the court records and people familiar with the matter. Ahmed, a healthcare executive, had donated $190,000 to Paxton, campaign finance records show, including $25,000 days after he was indicted."

If there’s evidence of fraud or other financial crimes, let’s see it. But trying to denaturalize and deport a sitting member of Congress over mistakes a parent allegedly made on immigration forms when she was a child is immoral and reprehensible. We can’t stand for it.

Hooray, a source link. Some context: - Bot traffic from the whole of the Russian Federation is basically unchanged. - The specific AS13238 YANDEX — Yandex LLC source is mostly web scraping search engine indexing. - People's jokes about influence campaign effects are being read as factual statements
All Russian bots. They are still out there.

It is, in fact, possible to impeach and remove President Trump from office next week. It won't happen, however, because Republicans also support Putin and Russia and agree with Trump.

It's already illegal. Congress banned it near-unanimously in 2022. That law allows the ban to be lifted only if Russia withdraws from Ukraine. He's simply breaking the law that's already on the books.

I'd be curious to see what happens immediately before that video; I wish the NYPD had made that public as well. But I have to say... on initial view, that looks indistinguishable from a carjacking, and if I'd been the driver I would also probably have floored it.
