Eventually the NYT will invent an even more passive voice in which there are no subjects, verbs, nor objects. I’m picturing an editor levitating off the ground having reached enlightenment putting out articles comprised entirely of disconnected punctuation marks.

Think about how the left told Biden, and then Kamala, that their campaign would 100% lose if they did the exact opposite of what Mamdani's would be.
They literally plugged their ears and said shut the fuck up, and then she lost by doing the exact opposite, in every way on every issue, of Mamdani.

Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

So the US will sell another country's oil and keep all the profits for its billionaires and expect Venezuelans to just sit there and accept it?
Ok! Good luck!
Oh BTW, I wonder what China, the number one buyer of Venezuelan oil, thinks about all this...

It took congress a week to introduce impeachment proceedings against Trump for J6. By then, GOP opposition had evaporated and everyone got back in line.
Imagine if they'd done it the next day. Maybe nothing changes, or maybe we aren't in this mess.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

It doesn't matter whether LLMs are interesting or potentially useful or even already applied elsewhere technology. We do not currently live in a world where that matters or is possible. It doesn't matter what we invent if the driving force of how it's used is psychotic billionaires chasing ..
