I love my neighborhood so damn much
Pic I took during a walk on the Church Street bridge, just behind the sculpture park along McCormick in Evanston. The big ol trees are reflecting on this branch of the Chicago River and the Dempster bridge is in the distance.

9/ That cafe meeting, Kao asserted, was just one episode in a sprawling pay-to-play operation in Congress. He and his close associates donated nearly $900K to dozens of politicians, allowing Navatek to establish operations in half a dozen states with $40M+ a year in government funds.

Think about it. So much hardship facing ordinary people today comes back to three old men: Putin, Netanyahu and Trump. All seemingly determined to spend their golden years anywhere but a courtroom. And electorates put them all in power. History rhymes, eh?

Molly Ringwald Screaming in Sixteen Candles
Alt: Molly Ringwald waking up screaming in Sixteen Candles as she suddenly remembers giving the underwear she was wearing the night before to a classmate that asked for it during a high school dance so he could show it to other teens in the boys bathroom as proof of fucking her. After his big reveal to "the guys," he was given the coolest jock's black-out drunk girlfriend to drive home, so he fucked her in the car instead. I watched this film dozens of times as a girl. It was young adult cinema. Fucking bleak. Boys were empowered to rape us. Thanks John Hughes.

With AGI overwhelming the news again, I repeat: There is no path to intelligence via LLM. But an LLM botnet choking the internet, or someone using a local model to attack aging infrastructure, are both real risks and too late to prevent. Pay no attention to the bogeymen, the harm is here today.

what a mess my country has always been
Image of a book of poetry titled, Pieces of Intelligence: The Existential Poetry of Donald H. Rumsfeld, compiled and edited by Hart Seely.
The page reads...
"When

You're going to embarrass me
Because I can't remember
If it was yesterday
Or the day before.
I have certainly signed an order,
A deployment order,
With respect to the movement of forces.
And I just honestly do not remember when.

Sept. 20, 2001, Department of Defense briefing"
