This is such an unbelievably, historically unserious bad take from Steven Levy, the light from bad takes would take a million billion years to reach it. www.wired.com/story/war-br...

Some say that tech was always about the money and the military. Don’t buy that argument.

My most deranged TV recommendation remains the second season of The Purge TV show, which focuses on everything that people do during the year between annual Purge nights (e.g. a crew that does bank heists on Purge night plan a heist)

An individual in Canada used ChatGPT for eight months to plan one of the country’s worst mass shootings. Yet, if you listen to politicians and media, the real threat of AI is a fantastical scenario where it might wipe out humans in ten years. They need to stop getting fooled by tech deceivers.

The media has the AI threat all wrong

Generative AI is harming people today. We don’t need to waste time fantasizing about science fictional scenarios.

There's a lot to say about this, and other folks are saying most of it. I just want to focus on one thing: the claim about the relationship between universities and "the real world."

For @lpeblog.bsky.social I wrote about why "bring your own power" is a false solution to the problem of datacenter energy demand and why municipalization (public ownership and control) of regional transmission organizations is necessary to protect ratepayers and accelerate decarbonization.

The Neoliberal Grid is in Crisis

To protect customers from rising electricity prices, public officials are urging data center developers to supply their own power. But this approach risks privatizing the power grid…

when Democrats were in charge of this broadband grant program (BEAD), Ezra Klein and the "abundance" people had no shortage of complaints now that Republicans are in charge and there's endless chaos, cronyism and delays, Klein hasn't made a single solitary peep

Nearly one-third of electric co-ops declined BEAD awards – NRECA

Of 63 electric co-ops that won BEAD awards, 20 have dropped from the program so far, said NRECA in a letter asking NTIA to 'correct course' on the program.
