the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

I cannot express how wild this quote is. This is a top tech analyst at a well-regarded firm saying that there is not enough capital to actually pay for all the stuff that NVIDIA and OpenAI has promised. It is so important that everybody realizes that *there is not enough money to do this*
I spoke with analyst Gil Luria at D.A. Davidson, asking if the capital existed to build OpenAI's promised 17GW of data centers.
He said "of course there isn't enough capital for all of this," but "enough capital to do this for a at least a little while longer."

fascists in the government, anti-fascists are the terrorists. joke of an administration
Designating Antifa as a “domestic terrorist organization” is legally meaningless.
But ominous.
Designating narcos as “terrorists organizations” didn’t authorize use of force, but nonetheless paved the way for lethal strikes in the Caribbean on “terrorists.”

Designating Antifa as a Domestic Terrorist Organization
Section 1. Antifa as a Terrorist Threat. Antifa is a militarist, anarchist enterprise that explicitly calls for the overthrow of the United States

Even among pages that existed in 2021, 22% no longer accessible just two years later. This is often because individual page was deleted or removed on otherwise functional website.
Many implications for knowledge 🧪

"I reject the question" is a robust social philosophy. Metaphorically, literally, spiritually, emotionally: hit da bricks
One thing I wish more people were consciously aware of is that we live in a society that is constantly trying to control you by framing every decision asked of you as a choice between two bad options in order to convince you that you are powerless to either understand or pursue moral clarity

Cut crashes by 45%
