The Trump admin has decided it will no longer commemorate December 1st, World AIDS Day. Fed employees have been instructed to refrain from publicly promoting World AIDS Day through any communication channels, including social media, media engagements, speeches, or other public-facing messaging.

If Nvidia, Cursor, etc are continuing to make major profits selling AI or products to power AI, but research continues to show companies struggling to make a return on investment in AI, doesn’t that seem even more likely a bubble will pop?
I'm no economist, but is Nvidia making huge profits really evidence that there isn't an AI bubble, when so much of the insane spending on AI goes right to Nvidia? It's like saying "How can there be a bubble when this tulip farmer is making so much money?"

You ever ask ChatGPT (or any AI prompt) a question, that it answers incorrectly, then correct it, and then it gives you an even worse answer? So you correct it again and the answers get even worse and/or messier as if it has performance anxiety?

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Anti-ICE protests do not “turn violent.” They begin with the inherent violence of ICE.

It's worthwhile to pause for a moment and think about what a military operation to establish control over a major American city - let's say Los Angeles - would actually look like. The city of LA, which excludes most of the metro area, has nearly 4 million inhabitants. LA county has 10 million.

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?

hire them. It's REALLY hard already for visibly trans people to get jobs, even before this shit.

Support places that have trans people working front of house, and make sure owners know that's part of why you're there.
