White nationalists like Miller or Vance clearly think most white Americans are white nationalists at heart. That we we'll wake up one day and realize multiculturalism is taking something away from us. They are wildly mistaken. Minnesota's open door IS my cherished culture, and I'll fight for it.

Countries with women leaders tend to be better run, but not because women are better leaders. Women can be trash too. Countries with women leaders tend to be better run, because if your country is too sexist to elect women about 1/2 the time, then it's not selecting leaders on talent.🤷🏿‍♂️

No cops at Pride includes the cop in your head who tells you to police other queer people. Learn the difference between being uncomfortable and being harmed. Deal with your discomfort on your own time. Pride is for the community, not just you.

Because it’s harder to catch defects in code you didn’t write, the only realistic way of ensuring that you really do “go faster” is to let more defects through, unintentionally or no. So, effectively “LLMs for coding” are largely a cover story for improving throughput by relaxing quality standards

I waited 14 months for a publisher to issue a contract with a "no AI" clause (it had to be all lawyered, whatever). I'd do it again. I'm not agreeing to AI covers, audio, translations, blurb, anything. We stand together or we fall apart.

You will never get a new, revolutionary, truly good sentence or work of art by seeking out the perfect middle of all known beliefs. It's why AI is flawed as a creative machine, and why governing to polls is futile. We want new, beautiful, surprising things, politically, artistically, and otherwise.
