It's time to start socially shaming everyone who places bets on Kalshi and Polymarket.

Gambling should be like cigarettes: legal, but unadvertised and inaccessible.

my feeling is that if we are going to let AI loose we should start simple and low-risk, like criminal profiling, autonomous driving and medical advice before we let it handle complex tasks
It’s crazy the sheer number of supposedly rational people who were like “ok but it’s good at health stuff” early on.
When AI was added to a tool for sinus surgery: “Cerebrospinal fluid leaked from one patient’s nose. In another… a surgeon mistakenly punctured the base of a patient’s skull. In two other cases, patients suffered strokes after a major artery was accidentally injured”

Cmon now guys. If any Dem says anything besides shut down until this is all gone then there's no need for federal government at all. These are concentration camps. If you're too scared to say so then you're part of the problem.
In the last month ICE has bought warehouses in:

- Hagerstown, MD: $102 million
- Surprise, AZ: $70 million
- Hamburg, PA: $87 million
- Tremont, PA: $120 million
- San Antonio, TX: $82 million
- El Paso, TX: $123 million
- Social Circle, GA: price unknown

This is unprecedented.

It's important to point out that Trump and his goons are a gaggle of bumbling, incompetent neonazis addicted to stimulants who would be far less harmful, had not every single institution in America decided to collaborate and empower them, from mass media to universities to the Democrats themselves.

Relooted is not only a neat puzzle game with grand heists and a charming cast, but also a challenge to who owns and tells African history. Plus, it's one of the few games to capture Africa's diversity well, pulling artifacts from all across the continent. My review:

Relooted challenges who gets to own and tell African history
Relooted, a game about freeing African artifacts from Western museums and collections, interrogates history through sharply designed heists. Read our review.

Getting a Senator mad is absolutely not what Ring had in mind when they made that commercial.
What this ad doesn’t show: Ring also rolled out facial recognition for humans. I wrote to them months ago about this. Their answer? They won’t ask for your consent.

This definitely isn’t about dogs—it’s about mass surveillance.

This is torture. The US is torturing children. Children whose words and whose art contain infinitely more humanity than the people keeping them detained.

can all publications just adopt the taxonomic convention of a section called "Rich guy said a thing" and then just tuck all corresponding stories in there away from actual events.

ICE’s pending $30 billion budget exceeds the military spending of nearly every country, including Canada, Brazil, Mexico, and Iran.

ICE + CBP funding for 2026 would total $66 billion, higher than all but 7 militaries worldwide.
After a string of ICE murders, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries proposed reforms — and $11 billion more for ICE.

Including reconciliation bill funding, the Schumer-Jeffries plan would give ICE a $30 billion budget, higher than all but 15 militaries worldwide:

You can tell all this neo-Calvinism is fake because none of them tell you to drink more water. You need to drink more water! And yes drink coffee too and do drugs if you're cool enough, but…water!
going to start referring to all this no-caffeine, omni-spectrum sobriety, celibacy, 996, workout and diet focus stuff as "mormonism with silicon valley characteristics" because it's more polite than calling it "homeschool mindset"

You can understand a lot about American politics when you internalize - in your daily decision, coverage, literally anything - that a lot of things only go one way. As many Trump supporters - including ones who got dem info or addresses from Trump’s online posts - as possible can hurt or try…

I've been to some countries where people live under military rule or autocracy. And without fail, one of the questions I get when they ask about life in the U.S. is whether it's true that Americans just let homeless people die on the street.
During freezing temperatures in Port Arthur, Texas, a 61-year-old homeless man was found dead in his wheelchair outside a convenience store.

He was wearing a hospital gown and no shoes. Authorities say he had been released from a hospital the previous day.

This is a diseased society.
