An idea: if we don't want government loaning people money for education, we should cut out the middle man and publicly fund it. 🤷🏼‍♂️

we are going to have to find an alternative to meta products for local communities and advertising, right now, it’s almost impossible to do any kind of local business or art project without it, but both their rules and support are so arbitrary and capricious that you can’t rely on them

Happening now in the Chicago suburb of Bridgeview: A few hundred people are out protesting right-wing provocateur Jake Lang and his attempted "crusader march" on the local Palestine Fest going on nearby. Police in riot gear just formed a line, with Lang's group behind them.

I don’t think I’m the only person who will appreciate this

Triangular diagram labelled The Introvert
Hierarchy of Needs.

Top: Self-actualisation - A completely empty house. An arrow pointing to the house says “Nobody needs anything. Nobody is coming home for hours. Phone on silent.”

The next level is Esteem - Plans getting cancelled. An arrow here says “‘Sorry, we're going to have to rearrange.’ Oh no. That's terrible. I'm devastated.”

Next level: Belonging - One person you actually like. No group chat. No networking. No "let's go round and introduce ourselves." Just one person you can talk absolute shit with.

Fourth level: Safety - An escape route. Own car. End seat. Knowing exactly when the event finishes. A believable reason to leave early.

Bottom of pyramid: Physiological needs - Being left the fuck alone for a bit. Food. Water. Sleep. 45 minutes where nobody speaks to you.

The idea that increasing labor power relative to capital might lead to some misuse of that power is not foreign to me, but frankly a perfect system does not exist and the alternative is exploitation. We should work to improve unions and hold them accountable, rather than question their existence.

Flock's whole thing is that they argue their system does not need a warrant and they claim this is a settled issue. Very hard to overstate the importance that a federal judge has said this is not the case. Flock's CEO just said it was "pretty cut and dry"

The new decision also immediately invalidates the core argument that Flock’s CEO Garrett Langley has made saying that Flock was not a constitutional issue. “You and I don’t get to pick what’s a constitutional violation and what’s not. We have judges, we have elected officials, there’s a process for that. We follow the law, we follow the Constitution. So far, in our belief and what will be for a long time, the courts have deemed this is not a warrantless search; this is a valid product as it relates to the Fourth Amendment. So I don’t see any change there,” Langley told The Drive in July, adding the issue was “pretty cut and dry.”

Notably, Hill suggested that other courts that have ruled Flock searches do not constitute a Fourth Amendment search were likely wrong to do so, and that they have not considered the widespread and automated context of the AI-powered surveillance system.

Federal Judge Rules a Flock Search Was ‘Indiscriminate Mass Surveillance’ and Unconstitutional

Flock’s nationwide network is quickly “approaching dragnet-type law enforcement practice” and the cop should have got a warrant, the judge wrote.

The New York Times has a choice of whether to cover Trumpism as A) an amusing and colorful example of the oddity of American politics, or B) an existential threat to the future of everyone you know and love. Over and over, they choose A. They trivialize themselves.

They’re covering him exactly as a home-team newspaper would cover the final season of a great athlete who is still playing but declined rapidly, and has been the paper’s lead story every day for over 10 years. It’s reverence with a sprinkling of nostalgia, and an occasional brief mention of decline

Excellent thread. I’d add: we are in a new media and political moment, and the strategies of scientific orgs and universities is stuck in the 1990s. People are responding to viral news. They want honesty, clear talk, and good values. This gap is why we’re not responding effectively to MAHA…

LLMs exist, and they aren't going away, not yet at least, and academia will have no influence on that, whatsoever. But. LLM's work, if they work, as a shortcut for routine tasks and business language use. A SHORTCUT. Handing them to an undergrad is absurd. They don't know the destination, let alone

Michael Tracey wants it to be known that he was *not* trying to "doxx" the victim of a horrible gang rape, he was merely trying to expose her identity and reveal it to their entire world. They're very different things, you see.

Someone described as a "CNN Creator" put out this video claiming I called for the "doxxing" of Jane Doe, and now a nationwide movement has been sparked against me. I NEVER CALLED FOR "DOXXING." CNN APPARENTLY OPPOSES WHAT IS CALLED "REPORTING" ON CLAIMANTS IN CIVIL PROCEEDINGS

Michael Tracey claims he took his post down out of principle, and that it wasn't a "retraction." But it should be. He ran with information from a junk website without looking into it. If he worked at a publication with any sort of standards, this unforced error would be a fireable offense.

What Tracey found was on a sketchy site called "ecourtrecords.org" -- not NY's court system, as he claimed. A disclaimer on the site reads: "Not a court, law firm, or certified record service." Its domain was registered just a few weeks ago. And as of this post, the site he cited is offline.

Domain registration info for "ecourtrecords.org" shows the domain was created on Sept. 17, 2026.
