Seeing this from Florida and I'm just speechless because we seem to be going in the opposite direction here.

definitely something to keep an eye on. If we can continue to optimize things end to end ("tokens per watt per dollar") we can turn knowledge into abundance given the right environment. 🌈

Also, whatever OpenAI runs in Abilene, TX as part of Stargate is not part of Microsoft's cloud facilities. Microsoft is not perfect but they do publish sustainability reports for everything they do from the cloud to their supply chain. www.microsoft.com/en-us/corpor...

It's more complicated than that. Yes, Microsoft has 49% of the commercial component but the controlling ownership is the nonprofit parent company. MSFT has invested billions for that 49% stake in exchange for usage rights and capped profits. However, Microsoft is not directly involved w/ Stargate.

Microsoft is not an owner or partner in Stargate. This is a data center partnership between OpenAI (not Microsoft), SoftBank & Oracle. If it were Microsoft you would see details about how they are actually using closed systems for water cooling which is sustainable.

Just watched his interview with @profgalloway.com and I'm impressed with this fella. He's highly qualified to lead a country through a real crisis (and he has before). Canadians are in good hands.

Serious question: if all the GOP congresspeople who are afraid will step aside (resign) would that get Dems a majority in the interim until special elections and appointments?

This doesn't come without a cost to the rest of us. The United States cannot be trusted as a partner in trade. Our reputation is damaged thanks to this game of billionaire chicken.

Call ALL congressional representatives and demand resignations now. 202-224-3121 This should be a bipartisan demand. If you have republican reps like me, it is even more important to let them know this is unacceptable for our military leaders. Our country is less safe because of these clowns.

Thank you. Next, Ashley Moody and Rick Scott need to schedule town hall events. I doubt they will, so let's call them and demand it. They need to hear directly from constituents. Next recess is in mid-April. Rick Scott Miami Office - 786-501-7141 Ashley Moody DC Office - 202-224-3041

Now let's all call Ashley Moody and Rick Scott's offices to demand town hall events. In-person is unlikely, but I'd take virtual at this point too. They need to hear directly from constituents. Next recess is in mid-April. Rick Scott Miami Office - 786-501-7141 Ashley Moody DC Office - 202-224-3041

Fun fact: the theater in question "O Cinema" has screened over 50 Jewish films, hosts a monthly Holocaust screening with the Jewish Film Festival, and has been the host of the festival since 2014.

It’s baffling to think that the solution to an egg shortage is to raise chickens in your backyard. We rely on modern, industrialized food systems for a reason, and it’s not practical for everyone to suddenly become farmers. This suggestion is clearly out of touch with reality.

President Trump said in his address to Congress that he inherited an “economic catastrophe” from Joe Biden. The U.S. had the strongest economy in the world when Trump took over, but it's shown signs of strain from Trump's federal funding cuts and tariffs. Follow live.

I don't plan on watching. Also, I hope that any congressional representative who decides to skip in protest will spend this evening making good trouble or addressing concerns of their constituents instead.

100%— off the top of my head, and without naming names, there are at least three Dems who’d do this without hesitation. (any guesses?) Plus @sanders.senate.gov is pretty much doing exactly this with his Midwestern GOP districts tour.
