Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

I cannot tell you how grim the AI in higher ed situation is. Many of the students have completely surrendered to letting AI do their homework, badly, I might add. How do you fix this? Truly, what the hell do we do, beyond what grading can address, which isn't a solution?

Larry Ellison is worth roughly $400 billion.
Elon Musk is worth roughly $385 billion.
Meanwhile, the minimum wage is still $7.25/hour, 86% of Americans stress over grocery prices, and most are living paycheck to paycheck.

RFK and the wacky zealots who surround him are endangering the nation’s health and future well being. MRNA vaccines are safe and effective - full stop. Kennedy must resign if the nation is to be safe.

Bernie Sanders: Providing healthcare to all will not cost any more than the enormous amount that we're already spending. The choice is if we have a system that guarantees medicine to all people, or continue one that makes huge profits for insurance companies and drug companies.

Political parties have control over the terms of primary elections.
The DNC has the power to ban Super PAC spending.
If Democrats really want to become the party of working people and fight the forces that brought us Trump, they must disavow Big Money.

Trump's Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just admitted that the Big Ugly Bill's "Trump Accounts" are a "backdoor for privatizing Social Security."
This follows Trump and DOGE slashing SSA staffing levels to record lows.
Make no mistake: the Trump regime is waging war on Social Security.
