I'm not saying that a guy who sprints to the front to defend every rapist and attack every victim is himself a rapist because I have no information upon which to base such a claim. But I would bet a million bucks that this guy would risk his life to keep any of us from seeing his hard drive.

Going to work now feels like doing homework after the teacher quit and told the class that education is fake. Everyone just coasting on inertia and hoping there's still a point to all this

We should do a large scale in-person arts subsidy. Even AI disruption aside, it’d be worth it just to get people to touch grass more.

I guess that the best argument, for me, against AI is that everyone advocating it seems to be a psychopath.

Perhaps we should interrogate the degree to which that techno-optimism was being promoted by people who always planned to use technology this way? Because it seems like all the cyberpunk writers were right on the money warning about all this.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.

When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."

Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.

If by "prevent" you mean "write strongly worded letters and wait for the United States to pretend to fix it" then sure. When 7 in 10 countries are governed by psychopaths who don't care about anything except protecting their own advantages, the UN is basically just a global HOA.

I played football for 6 years when I was a kid. Jr. high through HS. I loved every minute of it. Every play, every pass, every tackle, every snap of the ball. What I hated were the headaches, the dislocated shoulders, the sprained MCL, the coaches who play their own game with us as game pieces.

A mistake people make is conflating two groups of people and their demands. For example, are there actually Jewish voters who need to be reassured by an Abdul or a Mamdani of a commitment to pluralism? Yes. Are there also those who actually just want these Muslims to be pro-Israel? Aso yes.

"I don't think Abdul has done enough at this point in time to gain our full support with an endorsement," Zach Nessel, the secretary of the Michigan Jewish Democratic Caucus and the son of state Attorney General Dana Nessel, told the Times

Because the NYT paid journalists to imply that he IS paying influencers even though he is clearly not, I now assume by default that everyone who accuses Mamdani of being corrupt is getting paid to do that. That's not good for the NYT, and it's not good for trust in journalism.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

Thought experiment: You're the CEO of a car company. A sales rep says he has an AI that can automate the jobs of 60% of your employees. You run the numbers, and see that laying off those employees will save $150 million in payroll. Question: How much will the AI probably cost?
