Really need tech reporters to stop being credulous to the “Our biggest weakness? Maybe our AI is TOO powerful.” It’s already fucking the economy and environment and being used to murder people in Palestine, but the ol “don’t look at the man behind the curtain” routine works on Tech journalists

I don't love dunking on folks but it's so fucking funny to me that Trump was convicted of 34 felonies 2 years ago, faced no punishment, and went on to win the presidency a second time and journalists are still like, "hmm, I have an inkling that maybe he believes he's above the law for some reason."
Post from NYT reporter Eric Lipton 

"What an odd moment in United States history.

A U.S. president is running an overtly political campaign advertisement, right before midterm elections, paid for by the U.S. government.

Trump appears to believe he is immune from any kind of legal limit."

i heard this for the first time a couple weeks ago when someone played it in our office, and it was so forgettable i could not summon its melody if you paid me. nothing is ubiquitous anymore. it is the job of a music critic to know that?

I think LinkedIn is mostly a dumpster fire (obviously), but I am friends on there with the pulmonary surgeon who saved my life and he occasionally comments about how proud he is of me and I find this more validating than pretty much anything in my life?

IMO a lot of the "AI will help you live your life" hype is actually just a pitch to degrade your intelligence, competence, curiosity, and human connections. It treats all normal activities as tasks to be efficiently checked off a list without seeing the benefits of doing them yourself

macklemore is very good at communicating to people. he addresses complexity clearly, and carefully, and his words usually stand up to scrutiny. nobody has moved the needle on the genocide in palestine like this in years, which seems nuts, but — years. it has to end and it's still good to say so.

i think people forget how big of a deal 'same love' was. how truly unusual it was for a straight cis dude to just, like, rap about how it's weird that queer people still couldn't marry. he did it clearly and unambiguously and a lot of new people got on board. very likely including the president.

The thing I remember about the years after 9/11 isn't 2001. It's 2003. When the Northeast Blackout of 2003 hit NYC everyone was so fucking happy it wasn't a terrorist attack that like people were partying.

MAHA has been in power for two years. They have decimated basic science, gutted food safety surveillance and kicked millions of people off food stamps. *That* is their ideology, not their polite platitudes about corporate control of the food supply.

It’s a grossly harmful worldview that has no relationship to the scientific consensus on the drivers of chronic disease. America’s disease burden (which is falling btw) is mostly a function of income and healthcare inequality, not the refusal of Americans to eat beef tallow.

Second, MAHA isn’t all that concerned with treatment of disease anyway. Its core claim is that nearly all diseases can be prevented through virtuous lifestyles. If we were all drinking raw milk and taking zinc supplements, we wouldn’t be coming down with heart disease and depression and COVID.

“When I get sick and I can't afford medicine, what are the holistic and low-cost alternatives that I can turn to because I know that I can't afford to see a doctor?” First, holistic medicine is mostly a luxury good, not a function of poverty.
