I would advocate for renaming horse powers of internal combustion engines into supreme powers ICEs are vastly superior to outdated, stinky, parochial horse powers. they are "not simply imitating or automating" them this decisive action will ensure that the USA leads and wins golden age upon us

fun fact: last week, NSF suddenly cancelled a solicitation shorturl.at/lrCcY, with the deadline just two weeks out why, you (and all who spent untold hours writing the proposals) might ask? well, the title of the program was MFAI (no, Mathematical Foundations) Russian imperial bureaucracy, level 982

20/x So here is the real Somali pirate movie. Hollywood filmed the captain who was rescued. Belgium invented a film that was never going to be made, cast the villain as its star, and let him fly in for the premiere. The red carpet straight to prison

there are virtually no sales (perhaps in locations like Miami) where the land appraises like this. nobody in their mind wld buy it to build a DC. this is most probably the usual combo of misreading the data + confirmation bias.

once again, the extremely short corporate horizon: the tech 'overlords' buying deregulation and detaxation ignore the inevitable talent bottleneck 5 years hence. they cldve nipped this cretinism at the bud, but decided it'd cost them too much in today's credits w this admin. pathetic idiots.

the general rule is that we, Jews, as a community, always lose when betting on personal favors, rather than on principles of liberalism and democracy. no amount of pseudo-favors from the most corrupt regume in the US history can justify cooperation with it. www.documentcloud.org/documents/28...

it took an anti-MAGA racist to bring to the fore an obvious fraud, that shld've been detected way earlier by the academic peers this, ofc, enabled the RW media to mount an attack which JA, who long lost any agency in the process, didn't survive on to writing a 5000 words essay assigning the blame

this is bizarre. the mayor's letter (stupidly, indeed, asking to slow down influx, not to leave town) is from 2002. current local politicians seem very welcoming towards sizeable Somali community, - the current reality the writer refers to. I mean dislike and argue, but do not stretch the facts, ok?

back of the envelope calculation shows that making child care universal would hit the budget about as much as Trump's 2017 tax cuts did. meaning, this is perfectly doable. with probably much higher ROI.

that - dismissing any lab origin pathways, - was exactly the intent of the Lancet letter she most probably refers to. what is "even more nonsensical" about it?

sorry, with due antipathy to "US paid China to hack the virus" nuts, where did she claim "this was ALL a cover up"? this mixup you're doing here looks to me as intentional as what RW is doing on leak conjecture.

one of the reasons wannabe authoritarians avoid putting their faces on widely, anonymously circulated items is the asymmetry of ease of scratching (say) a swastika on their faces and hardness of its removal.

should be kept in mind: the idea was to create collective farms (kolkhoz), kibbutzim sans self-governing or ability to sell freely their harvests. as the contemporary joke went: CPSU: create kolkhozes! JEWISH AUTONOMY: created! now please send the peasants
