A college sophomore at an Occupy rally could not have generated such a grotesque outsized caricature of US imperialism
Trump: "We're going to have our very large United States oil companies go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure and start making money for the country. And we are ready to stage a second and much larger attack if we need to do so."

Bus tracking/route finding apps were what made me finally switch from flip to smart phone. Such a technological upgrade!
One thing I wrote about here is how technology has made buses *way* more convenient while techno-futurists were obsessed with flying taxis and self-driving cars.

AI companies are playing a game wherein these computer programs are presented to the public as autonomous individuals capable of issuing a meaningful apology. The machine is just a machine. Human beings owe the apology for building the machine irresponsibly and unleashing it on the world.
so x dot com’s ai generated CSAM and they admitted it may violate US law and … i haven’t seen in anyone in power say much at all or call to stop using the platform

one thing i have found is that some people come to my tiktoks asking me to provide esoteric truths and get frustrated when my answers are much less exciting
This is a good point from Michelle Goldberg. I’d add that in an atomized media landscape, where attention is both critical and dearly bought, there are few incentives for the type of cooler, consensus-based presentations when audiences were both large and stable. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/20/o...

In an odd say this is one of the places where the lack of a liberal Fox News really hurts both Dems and American in general. If this were reversed it would be constantly covered in Left partisan media than picked up at the same rate by centrist media. Instead super important questions arent asked
Going back months now,
the back of Trump’s right hand
has often been visibly discolored and bandaged when he appears in public.
He works assiduously to conceal it from cameras by covering it with his other hand.
Getty photographers have gotten in the habit of taking shots of the malady

Sincerely, if I was a Dem executive and had an idea this was going to happen, I’d deploy armed officers to bar any intruders from the citizenship ceremony until it was complete. A sacred space and a sacred obligation, and letting fascist goons pick people off at the front door is an abomination

This op-ed is truly terrible.
A few obvious failures:
🔹 Why are Waymo's self-reported data treated as fact?
🔹 Why does the writer ignore myriad ways to save lives that are cheaper, more reliable, and quicker than waiting for AVs?
🔹 Why doesn't he mention he's a VC partner?

“There’s a public health imperative to quickly expand the adoption of autonomous vehicles.”
Would the author say the same about building bike lanes? Installing automatic traffic cameras? Requiring Intelligent Speed Assist?
All of those are proven to save lives — and at a fraction of AVs' cost.
