Also I have read every single application that has been submitted so far and I have NO IDEA who is going to win (and usually we do).

Yall are coming HARD. EVERY application has been extremely detailed and IMPECCABLE. Every story has been unique. They are INCREDIBLE.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

And our governor and PSC (Except for Commissioner Lewis) are trying to fast track a second data center in Louisiana. We are in the bad place for many reasons one being an unorganized major opposition party. Just know once it's built those jobs are gone. www.the-independent.com/tech/ai-data...
AI data centers created as much pollution as New York City this year, study estimates
Over the past few years, Silicon Valley's AI blitz has created skyrocketing demand for high-end computation in vast dedicated data centers

And so the non stop fireworks begin... My inner Boomer thinks if you set off fireworks in a densely populated neighborhood you have to give all the dog and cat homes Thundershirts or a pack of calming edibles. The fur babies are stressed.

New Zealand just recorded its first-ever day of zero coal- or gas-fired electricity. In fact two days, 20 & 21 December. (Still some co-gen, about 1.8%.)

So AI is the final boss for humanity... got it 😵‍💫
Imagine a radiologist is using a cutting-edge AI tool to analyze your brain scan. The scan flags a problem in your "basilar ganglia." The problem is, there's no such thing.

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels.

Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.

And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.

Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.

It's a power grab.

Q: You guys were out for 2 months during the shutdown. Why has it taken until the end of the year to start addressing these healthcare bills? And what's your message to those who are going to see their premiums rise?
