Watching the DNC is like watching a horror movie where the villian is right behind the cast members, and they ignore it, and also they can hear you screaming warnings from the audience at them, and they find it irritating.

As we learn more and more about the costs associated with GenAI, I continue to wonder how institutions and their leadership decide that yes, incorporating anything OpenAI produces into the lives of educators and students is worth the harms.
"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"

This Veterans Day, I’m thinking of the millions of Americans who have served in uniform — and how our government is failing them right now.
Words aren’t enough, we need actions. Fund the VA. Fund mental healthcare. And end endless wars.

Very clumsy way to do this, I wish these apps were not so limited. We need more freedom from big brother.
Here is a short cut recipe for a base Passat sauce I was asked for. This will serve you well, quick tasty and easy. Try were you can to add the confit garlic and its oil.

It remains to be seen what happens in the Senate, but I will not vote in the House for a government funding measure that doesn't protect healthcare.
Without extending Affordable Care Act tax credits, millions will see health insurance costs double. Hardworking Americans just can't afford that.
