“will no-one rid me of this turbulent priest” energy
The reason he is so stupid and bad at this is because his entire mental model of being a boss up to the point has devolved to posting angry tweets so that someone else magically takes the hint and does what he wants.
Trump frustrated at never-ending Epstein saga, calls on DOJ to release names of only Dems connected to Epstein to “embarrass them” and suggests that despite legal requirement to release everything, DOJ should consider saying “no more.”

Pondering how the mainstream Christian churches in this country might respond to the upsurge in surly Christian Nationalism. They tend to have a horror of being too “political”, and risk being outflanked by wannabe spiritual warriors who see every restraining voice as “captured”

There’s a “this but unironically“ line to be spun about the erosion of homosocial norms based on exploitation of women and girls, but it’s Xmas Day and it writes itself anyway
The cause of the male loneliness crisis is that they arrested Jeffrey Epstein, the only man who appears to have had friends.

New from me: The storied fiddler Ashley MacIsaac wanted to play a show at a Nova Scotia First Nation. It got cancelled because Google's AI search summary incorrectly called him a sex offender. Now he's worried for his safety www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/arti...

Let us all remember that for a few years a massive amount of people believed predict-next-token-machine will predict next unknown in science as if it was a token. As if nature, science and language are one single thing and truth is like getting three cherries in a slot machine.

One possible side-effect of people running smaller LLMs on their laptops is that the temptation to think of them as Oracles will diminish: their voice will no longer be that of the Big Tech Other, but that of a gizmo small enough to drown, as the saying goes, in a bathtub

A key use case for LLMs is doing weird and slightly queasy-makingly profane shit like this - it is the ultimate shameless hack, with a ready pen and no reputation to defend

Now that is an interesting framing, not least because there’s a broad class of such couples - cleverness/intelligence but also, for example, virtuosity/musicality

the real social contagion
God knows I’ve seen some headbangers on the internet but anyone who’s had the Terf avalanche knows they’re in a league of their own. The intensity of it is astonishing and once they’ve contracted it, it only gets more intense. A true mass hallucination, a wildly radicalising international psychosis.

Guys you can't ban VPN for kids without ALSO severely restricting the ability of adults to use VPNs without surveillance.
If this were proposed in Saudi Arabia or Myanmar or Hungary or Belarus, the British government would rightly call this what it is: a mandate for censorship.
