Watching what happens when an entire branch of government is run by people with no emotional regulation or empathy is just too much.
I wish for days I didn't have to pay attention to the Government.

The President of the United States has issued a declaration of War against Chicago, and by extension anyone who has not declared secession from the US (the only valid instance to declare war against some part of the US)

There's not enough money to be made in using tech for the things for which they are most suited and efficient, and there are both too many people hoping to be billionaires, and too many people not smart enough to know when they're being sold hype.
If LLMs weren’t so overhyped they could be a cool, but boring business automation and excel jockey tool.

Seems that David Geier has been tasked by HHS of determining the cause off Autism by September.
The same David Geier who has in the past has "treated" Autism with chemical castration medications.
Yep, eugenics have officially begun in DC.

There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.

Hi, I'm the guy who used to oversee the federal government's agency IT telecommunications contracts. This is extremely bad. There is absolutely no need for this. Not only is it a huge security exposure, but the simplest explanation for this is that it is meant to be a security exposure.
