I think it's telling that the main "value of AI" that's being pushed in the workplace is to have summaries of multi-page documents to save time. To save the reader's time. To save the executive's time. Not to save the time of the writer/worker. If you just want one page, ask for one page.

Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gave ICE more cops than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries. Once the bill is fully implemented, nowhere in America will be safe from Trump's secret police state.

"Trump and Hegseth both delivered their speeches as if they were hosting a rally. They threw out applause lines. They added dramatic pauses. They scanned the room like stand-up comics waiting for laughs. And yet nothing. Not a chuckle ... The silence turned into its own kind of protest."

Companies are supposed to make money, not spend it. And, they're supposed to be run by stratosphere investors and private equity consultants who know about efficiency and saving costs to make profit, but not the actual business. It's why it makes sense to run Government like a business (facetious).

While working today, I threw on a few longer YouTube videos as background noise. The number of ads I got (and blocked) about a realistic AI gf that said I could "make me do anything" is wild. Truly, society is not ok. Imagining how other (less-mindful) normies could easily fall into this muck.

@PeteHegseth on X: Cool story, General

QT of @general_ben on X: July 1935 German generals were called to a surprise assembly in Berlin and informed that their previous oath to the Weimar constitution was void and that they would be required to swear a personal oath to the Führer. Most generals took the new oath to keep their positions.

Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move. 1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year. Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

Debate is a performance and a skill, not some neutral crucible into which two ideas enter and the truth leaves. A debate between a flat earther and a hollow earther will not yield truth. A skilled debater could take an obviously false position and argue rings around someone with no debate skills.

"Kirk made a career of touring college campuses and engaging in bad-faith debates against ill prepared students on inflammatory topics, striving to elicit emotional responses."
Despite these apparent markers of success, Ezra Klein was wildly incorrect when he proposed that Kirk engaged in politics “the right way.” No. Kirk used the guise of open debate to propagate White Christian Nationalism, the belief that God intended America to be ruled exclusively by straight white Christian men—and that our laws, policies, and customs must reflect as much. He viewed multiculturalism, feminism, and secularism as problems to be rectified. Kirk is on record saying, “We made a huge mistake when we passed the Civil Rights Act in the mid-1960s.” He called a transgender woman “an abomination to God,” and tweeted, “It's not a Great Replacement Theory, it's a Great Replacement Reality. Just this year, 3.6 million foreigners will invade America. …You are being replaced, by design.” He regularly issued bigoted, hate-fueled statements. To suggest that he was simply a controversial or “moderate” conservative out doing politics “the right way” is not merely absurd; it’s reckless. Nevertheless, his murder was abhorrent. He should still be alive today.
