A contractor building Meta's data center flushed its "closed-loop" cooling system straight into Cheyenne's sewer. It carried a bacterium and knocked the city's water-reuse system offline for months. They sell these as sealed systems that barely touch the water. This one poisoned a city's.

I think the thing about school and observationally law school especially (I went to seminary and see a very similar pattern) is many people go to confirm their preconceived notions and only learn what helps enforce what they already want/believe.

Yale Law School.
Mr. Vance got to the point. They needed to invoke the Insurrection Act, swiftly, to crush the unrest in Minnesota. It would be painful in the short term, he said, but the message it would send - that paid agitators could not get away with disrupting ICE operations — would make sure no one tried it again. (There was no evidence that either Mr. Pretti or Ms. Good
had been paid activists.)

The admin at Yale Law School sees this as their primary mission: helping fascists network and take power. Yale Law School is where Vance met Thiel (invited for a talk) and Ramaswamy (fellow student), and where he was brought into FedSoc by Amy Chua (tenured professor).

I think the idea of Vance’s competence hinges on the same assumptions underlying the idea that “competent white men” in charge is genuinely the ideal form of leadership if not for “political correctness”

Until today, I figured someone like Vance knew that the fanciful notion of "paid protesters" in MN was a ridiculous lie he was cynically exploiting. Now it seems he actually believed it. So I feel like there's actually a bit less sliminess but there is knowledge that we live in different universes.

Lindsey Graham puts the Iran deal squarely on the shoulders of JD Vance, possibly positioning Vance to become the subject of a stab-in-the-back myth to excuse Trump’s foreign policy failure:
Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC

I am pleased to hear the memorandum of understanding with Iran to allow the Strait of Hormuz to open has been agreed to. I will be watching closely the ensuing negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear program and other matters.
I am somewhat concerned that Iran's view of the agreement seems different than what the American negotiating team is claiming.
Under our law, any nuclear deal with Iran will be sent to Congress for review and a vote. I look forward to reviewing the final product and I believe it is imperative that the architect of the deal, Vice President Vance and his negotiating partners, be part of the process in presenting the final deal to Congress.

Obviously this is an ethical and legal disaster. But it would have also been a political disaster. Trump didn’t draw down in MN after Alex Pretti was killed out of kindness, but because MN was becoming a national political crisis and beginning to crack the GOP. Vance is a monster AND a fool.

It’s 100% a national security crisis and should be treated as such. POTUS is falling asleep on camera multiple times a week, and the GOP is (publicly) pretending like everything is fine. Privately, they’re panicking, but they’re also cowards, so they won’t say or do anything about it.

New from 404 Media: companies are using Reddit manipulate ChatGPT and Google AI Search. The strategy is to systematically manipulate answers provided by chatbots by manipulating the underlying source material those chatbots scrape—in this case, a popular subreddit www.404media.co/companies-ar...
“As AI search engines increasingly pull answers from Reddit, companies are using us for AEO. On top of that, there's been an explosion of peptide interest and AI usage flooding the sub. Together, this has put serious pressure on content quality,” a post by the moderators read. 
AEO is AI-engine optimization, and it is an evolution of search engine optimization where brands and marketing companies attempt to create content that they hope will be scraped by large language models. Manipulating Reddit with bots, sock puppet accounts, and human accounts that are paid to promote brands has become a core strategy of firms that do AEO, because Reddit has become one of most-often cited sources by popular AI tools like ChatGPT and Google’s AI search. For example, a company called RedRover offers AEO and SEO for companies; on its home page, it says “rank #1 on Search and get cited by AI: AI agents that mass publish content to help you rank on Google, ChatGPT, and Reddit—driving traffic to your site from every corner of the internet.”
“An army of agents publishing blog content & reddit posts that solves both SEO & AEO at scale,” RedRover advertises.

Because I'd so rarely looked at Google AI Search Overview, I hadn't realized that it appears never to give the same "answer" twice in response to identical queries. A lot of people are using this as a reference tool, but it's more like a reality-breaking machine. flaminghydra.com/by-the-book-...
The most disturbing thing about Google AI Overview is Google’s evident contempt for the values of scholarship, such as verifiability, exactness, consistency, and accuracy. Or maybe the worst thing here is what looks to me like artificial pressure to associate the term “liberal”—via references to “libertarian” and “classical liberalism” up or near the top, with free-market notions of right-wing politics—rather than egalitarianism or democracy—associated with the political aspects of the word “liberal.”

Which is inaccurate, from an etymological perspective.
