“The Constitution does not permit the government to arrest thousands of individuals and then disregard their constitutional rights because it would be too challenging to honor those rights.”
BREAKING: Judge Nancy Brasel, a Trump appointee, has issued a TRO in the Minnesota access-to-counsel case about treatment at Whipple.

"It appears that in planning for Operation Metro Surge, the government failed to plan for the constitutional rights of its civil detainees."

Well holy fucking shit. Ring cancelled their partnership with Flock. Keep pressure on them to stop volunteering their feeds to state, local, and federal agencies, though, because that part's still going.

Tomorrow, I'm talking with an expert about ***PJM***. That's the grid operator for 13 states + DC.

Nothing's getting built, power prices are rising, consumers are angry, governors are angry, data centers are impatiently banging on the door ... it's a mess.

Got questions about PJM?

another core reason why we should fear becoming too dependent as a species on AI/LLMs is because there are still an enormous number of situations in life - disasters, sheer remoteness, infrastructure problems - in which you do not have access to electricity or the Internet.
right, the internet has infrastructure. which LLMs/AI are incredibly dependent upon for "survival."
people are also surprised when they learn the internet doesn't literally float about in the cloud but is made of physical infrastructure and can be banjaxed by strategically fucking up some submarine cables

The clean energy transition continues despite Trump & Big Oil’s pro-wildfire, pro-flood, pro-extreme weather crusade.

We’re continuing our aggressive push to lower energy costs by scaling up cheap/abundant clean energy & holding Big Oil accountable for the costs it’s inflicted.

This is what the gop is going to face for the next 3 years. Stuttering delusional old white guys dumbfounded when someone replies “of course I am in favor of my constitutional rights, why do you hate this country?” every time they assert the secret police should be able to kill you for talking back.
