Once you establish that people can be punished because the administration doesn't like their speech, expanding the bounds of who can be treated that way becomes inevitable.

One thing I'm fucken sick of hearing is that people on the poverty line "don't want handouts."
Well, the rich take hand outs. Maybe they're rich bc they were offered handouts. Maybe they're rich bc they take them.
This "shame in receiving free money" for the poor but not the rich makes me SO MAD

Bisher gab es den Wahlomat, der anhand von Aussagen (!) der Parteien die eigene Neigung ermittelt hat. Jetzt gibt es Realomat, der sich statt auf Aussagen auf das reale Abstimmungsverhalten stützt. (Die Frage: Soll man mit der AfD gemeinsame Mehrheiten suchen, fehlt allerdings noch)

reminds me of one of the many, many times i was told i was "brutally honest" — when i was a startup pitch judge
startup guys: and for revenue, we'll sell ads!
me: have you got experience? ever sold ads before?
selling ads is not Just Add Revenue Magic. it is a HUGE amount of SKILLED WORK.

They're so screwed I'm sorry. Ads? You think ads we going to make you $$5bn+ extra a year? What are you god damn talking about??!!
OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar says the startup is weighing up an ads model, but plans to be "thoughtful"; sources say OpenAI has hired ad talent from Meta and Google (Financial Times)

"Just half a pound of the stuff may remove as much carbon dioxide as a tree can". What the f**k does that even mean?
A mature tree removes ~25 kg of CO₂/year. This "new powder" is a sorbent with a capacity of 0.96 mmol/g, so that's 0.0096 kg of CO₂ per 0.5 lbs. You'd need 1305 lbs to equal a tree.

New powder that captures carbon could be ‘quantum leap’ for industry
A ‘covalent organic framework’ can be used to capture carbon to store it or convert it for industrial use

If you’re doing things just because you want to get a round of applause and not because it’s the right thing to do and when people keep urging to be better, you turn on them, you richly deserve the roasting (in life and hell) you have coming to you
Here’s the most charitable reading I can offer:
The tech barons behaved as though they were atop a social hierarchy, and expected mass adoration for their generosity+forgiveness for mistakes.
Instead, Elizabeth Warren, Lina Khan et al treated them like the heads of *massive corporations.*
