Honestly starting to feel like the country would be better off if we replaced the Senate and the Supreme Court with the last 109 people who served me an alcoholic beverage. I’d take that deal blind right now.

Yeah, really, that’s the thing: don’t assume that OpenAI has a strategy or a masterstroke idea. This is a company that is basically running a 24/7 no IT loads refused multi-billion dollar burn rate hackathon until it runs out of cash and investors to swindle

Only $15m?

I must be cynical as I expected that number to be much larger. My experience on Tiktok these days and blocking every 3 accounts due to Sora slop invading my feed.

Do you suppose the strategy is to kill Tiktok by flooding it with slop?

Never mind, that assumes they have strategy.

Marc Andressen vs the Pope?

Give me the Pope and the points.
A tech billionaire mocked Pope Leo XIV’s call for ethical AI.

The post was deleted — but not before exposing Silicon Valley’s deeper discomfort: a pope they can’t buy or bully.

It also revealed something older: the Valley’s original sin — the desire to be God.
Tech Billionaire Mocks Pope Leo’s AI Warning — and Reveals Silicon Valley’s Original Sin
A billionaire tech guru openly mocked Leo's call for moral AI — and quickly backtracked after backlash. It’s a telling collision of Silicon Valley hubris with a pope they cannot buy, bully, or ignore.

It's amusing that all of the shitposts, protests, snide remarks, thoughtful takedowns, boycotts, and everything else

But all it took was Joyce Carol Oates tweeting, "Despite how rich he is, Musk doesn't seem to *enjoy* anything" to completely melt him

She had her flaws, but Nancy Pelosi was a gangsta and there is no chance this ever happened. Don't let SF fool you: she was Baltimore to the core.
Without even looking it up I'd bet my car that a minority of Democrats never crossed over to pass a Republican bill that Leader Pelosi publicly opposed.

Fun with math:

A 6% 30-year mortgage on a $500k loan leaves the borrower paying $579k in interest over the life of the loan.

Why didn't Dems do more w the power voters refused to give them?!

In the 45 years since Carter, Dems have had trifectas for six(!) of them, & a filibuster-proof trifecta for six(!) non-consecutive(!) months(!).

If 10% of my business was based on defrauding and scamming people, and was called a "pillar of the global fraud economy", I would have some serious moral qualms about my business. Not our friends at Meta though.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.
