I laughed at loud. These people are so pathetic; our enemies are numbskulls. They will kill us all and still not know hs physics.
COWEN: The stupidest question possible: Why don’t we just make more GPUs?
ALTMAN: Because we need to make more electrons.

Enshittification is depressing
Everything that was cool is struggling to survive or has become a deranged version of itself

I really appreciate that @pbsnews.org ended the interview with this graphic.
It captures, in the simplest and starkest terms, the brutal arithmetic driving this country's homelessness catastrophe.

A reminder that eels are critically endangered and are still a major part of the licit and illicit economy in Asia, Europe, and parts of the US (lookin’ at you, Maine)
Valuable eels are in decline all over the world, leading to a new push for restrictions on trade to try to help stave off extinction.
Eel populations are falling, and new protections were defeated. Japan and the US opposed them

With its hateful rhetoric, the right seeks to cast gender identity not as something you are, but as something dangerous that you believe. We aren’t against trans people, just their ideology.
Yet the end goal is the same: to wipe out transness itself. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

How the right uses "gender ideology" to blame trans people for everything
MAGA learned from global autocrats the language needed to push fear.

Attention is on NEETs today, but the problem is much worse.
NEETs include stay-at-home parents & jobseekers.
Strip those out to focus on people not working, not seeking work, not in education & not parenting: this group of economically & socially dislocated young adults has *doubled* in a decade.

Black folk aren't as concerned about Trump the individual as white folk are. We're not.🤷🏿♂️
Because a lot of white folk in the US view Trump as the problem. They think he changed how white people think.
No.
Black folk know that the racism was always there. Trump just let them take the mask off.

Few things bug me more than higher ed leaders saying that we lost our mission and lost the trust of the public, when we have actually been the target of a decades-long smear campaign by the right wing that worked. The moment we’re losing our mission is right now, in capitulation.

Delightful to be able to tell a media artist their work has been screened in a country they may not have heard of, and then learn one of their parents was born not too far away. (And this is not Europe.)
