My lukewarm takes on the permitting bill draft: - It'd accelerate dirty energy and clean energy. - Anyone who claims to know how much it'd accelerate dirty vs. clean is lying to you and/or themself. - Most important consideration is how it'd affect Dems' odds of kicking fascists to the curb.

So now 27.0.1 seems to have introduced a kernel panic every few minutes of operation that have made the new Mac Mini M6 useless. Good job Apple.

Mamdani is so effective at communicating New York’s story. Which also means he’s doing a fantastic job of telling his own story. I don’t even hate the Yankees and Mets with the same intensity these days.

New Mac Mini M6 -> ollama -> qwen3.8:27b Sitting here watching model go in circles determining which US Senate seats are even up in 2026. It got that wrong and its reasoning suggests that Donald Trump should campaign in Madison, WI for Taylor.

It's too depressing and obnoxious to write about, but virtually all of the doomy/horny AI hyperventilating is transparently displaced anxiety about our fucked climate and political situation. Even rich idiots know it's bad and being permitted to get worse. They're trying to write their own ending.

Kind of makes me sad to watch fossil fools be sold a bill of goods about a last ditch project-stopping effort spearheaded by a "Stop the Steal" lawyer. I guess all hours kind of bill the same.

This is an absolute disaster from a national security perspective. Obviously, a lot on F-35s is classified, but a weapons-bay door and a canopy with radar-absorbing material are some of the most sensitive. Hard to describe how bad this is.

If any of these guys spent 1 hour with someone outside of their ideological bubble they might have learned something. For example, if you think you can cut the deficit via personnel cuts, you are a fucking clown who does not deserve to be listened to. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/a-year-on-...

Musk seems to have genuinely thought the government was Twitter. This was one of the rationales for hiring him - he dramatically cut Twitter’s personnel and underlying costs, and no big deal! But one major difference is that unlike a tech firm, personnel for the federal government is a minor cost. Because federal employee salaries make up only about 5% to 6% of spending, you can fire a huge proportion of them, and barely put a dent in federal spending.

i am genuinely bewildered by people who say that the rise of white nationalism in the republican party is a response to the "woke left." like, did the woke left cause pat buchanan's 1992 presidential campaign? is the woke left why steve king had a long career in congress?

A lot of Dems could take a lesson from this and openly acknowledge that their opponents are bigots. The resistance (mostly from establishment centrists) to stating plainly what's happening instead of using weasel words for the sake of civility is what makes voters think we're spineless.

Democrats should be at the microphone right now noting that this is a Hatch Act violation that they'll be pursuing in January. I don't care that the nation's become numb to this shit. It's still illegal and if Democrats should run against it and then act to crush it.
