My 10-year-old: Mommy, my therapist had me playing games. I thought we were supposed to talk, not her getting cooked in checkers.

Me: How was the session?

Him: Great. I learned that I like other things besides my devices and that other stuff can make me feel relaxed.

Him: …wait…

From @candicebernd.bsky.social in our magazine: A Texas Observer analysis found since 2021, at least 60 cryptomines have been developed or are under construction in at least 33 counties statewide. Experts worry our grid, and water supply, can't handle the load.
Crypto's Cryptic Texas Takeover
State regulators don't want you to know about the 60-plus Bitcoin mines guzzling public water and electricity—even though consumers are already paying the price.

Always read Dr Kendzior. She predicted all of this based on her research. She described the playbook repeated in every country that went authoritarian.
The identity of Sarah Kendzior, researcher on authoritarian states, and Sarah Kendzior's content discussing authoritarian states are...not really easy to separate.

So I'm struggling to see this as a response.
False attribution. If a person is suspended it is because of their identity? Could it not be because of their content? I wrote about it here aaron.leaflet.pub/3m52nqqmk322v

I would be interested to know about the decision by opponents of the bill not to object to the unanimous consent requests that shortened the time to passage.

It rarely gets explored, and I think they’re interesting and very human reasons, though they’ll also make some people mad.
Dem Sen. Andy Kim to me after Senate vote: “What just happened in the Senate chamber was an absolute disgrace. I can't stress it enough,” saying it’s “very profoundly disturbing” to see bill passed in chamber where McCain voted to block repeal. “I'm just really gutted right now.”

It's an interesting question though: why are companies happy to pay for an AI to do it, but not a human to do it? If the price is the same and end product is the same, what's the appeal of an AI?

Incredible stuff on LinkedIn. Cofounder of AI notetaker says they told early customers that there's an "AI that'll join a meeting.” But it was really just him and cofounder joining & manually taking notes. No AI. Comments flame him. He posts reply trying to kind of walk it back. Overall: Total bait.

Still thinking about this story. Imagine how cooked your brain has to be on Fox News -- how terrified you have to be, every day in your isolated suburban castle -- to start *shooting* when you see brown people at your door, before the door is even open. We're such a nation of terrified cowards.

The shooting victim died from a gunshot wound to the head, the coroner's office said.

there are advantages to having leaders (or 'leaders') who have had to worry about how they are going to afford healthcare, one of which is they might have some actual understanding of how it works.
