The push to privatize Medicaid and other programs undermines those programs’ effectiveness. Josh Turek, Iowa Senate candidate, says it's all an effort to maximize profits at the expense of patients. @joshturek4iowa.bsky.social

UK diesel price hits record high of £2 a litre. Record profits for oil companies and tax take by govt. Also tells story of deindustrialization: In the 1970s the UK had 18 oil refineries, now 4. We are rightly moving to renewables but economy still left vulnerable. Any national planning?

Courts have refused to quantify the legal concept of "probable cause." But why not? Are Justices just afraid of math? In this 2012 essay, I argue that putting a percentage on it would be bad: It would lead to less accurate probable cause determinations. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

More than 1.5 million kids were missed in the last U.S. census. The undercount was 2.1% for children <18, and 5.4% for those <5, the highest rate of any age group. Now the Census Bureau is proposing major changes to 2030 Census rules that could make some children even harder to count.

While digging around their website, I found their ethics policy—including a section on AI-generated content. I suspect that’s a part of what happened here. And I’m upset about that too! I did NOT speak to a journalist with the assumption that my interview would be funneled into producing AI slop.

The currently pool of 3,300+ data centers in the US consume more than 4.4% of US power, about 183TWh a year, but the majority of those are 50MW or less while the new ones are 80-150 times as power hungry. If just the DCs permitted through 2025 come online, that will DOUBLE resource usage.
