"In an internal memo from September, CEO Sam Altman said that OpenAI’s “audacious long-term goal is to build 250 gigawatts of capacity by 2033.” If Altman achieves this goal, OpenAI will need almost exactly as much electricity as India’s 1.5 billion people"

Terrible idea. It would result in a higher interest rate, more expensive homes, you'd pay roughly 40% more interest, and build up equity much slower.
POLITICO: “.. The White House was blindsided by the idea, according to two people familiar with the situation .. and is now dealing with a furious backlash from conservative allies, business leaders and lawmakers.” 🤡

a defense that once thrived by having swarms of smart players around the ball just feels so scattered now.
NGS has a stat called "group tackle opportunities" for defenses, which is exactly what it sounds like.

Janet Mills being a NO on the CR is interesting. Most people thought she'd be a similar type to the Shaheen/Hassan/King folks who are pushing this deal, but even she reads the room I guess

The head of the DNC urges a NO vote.
As this vote moves to the House, I stand with Democratic leadership as they refuse to rubber stamp the full-scale Republican assault on Americans’ health care and I am proud of the majority of Senate Democrats who opposed this vote.

NV and NH Senators voting yes while one VA and both MD Senators voting no is quite bizarre.
EIGHT Senate Democrats have voted to advance the funding measure so far after the deal was reached:
Cortez Masto
Durbin
Fetterman
Hassan
Kaine
King
Rosen
Shaheen
If the existing 52 Republicans hold, that's 60 — enough to advance this agreement. Final vote still to come.

The turnout persuasion ratio is better than in the April Wisconsin Supreme Court race (where it was flipped). That was the only small knock (for some) on that race.
Basically every country with a statewide election on Tuesday shifted toward Democrats, with the shift driven by both differential partisan turnout patterns and persuasion (looks like 30% turnout 70% persuasion in NJ and VA)

The quits rate is indeed a good indicator. People quit when jobs are plentiful, and don't when they aren't. Guess what the quits rate is currently? Hint, 2014.

Trump gave $40 billion to Argentina.
