I’ve been worried that AI will create an apocalyptic world led by murder robots, but I might have been unnecessarily concerned. It’s being designed by, and promoted by, absolute fucking morons.
For anyone worried AI will replace all of us.

NEW: Without USAID funding to help buy food for refugees, the World Food Program rushed to prioritize families based on need, determining that only half the population would get food.

Refugees learned which half they were in from a number stamped on the back of their ration card.

On camera, a 46 year-old real estate developer told a ten year-old child he'd be dating her in 10 years.

That developer was Donald Trump. Release the files.

I’ll never forget hearing Donald Trump’s racist “shithole countries” comment in a 2018 Oval Office meeting about immigration.

Tom Cotton and David Perdue claimed Trump didn’t say it and accused me of lying.

The truth comes out.
TRUMP: “I said why is it we only take people from shithole countries? Why can't we have some people from Norway, Sweden, Denmark… But we always take people from Somalia— places that are filthy, dirty, disgusting.”

Such a mystery what he means when he says this stuff, isn’t it?

I was a Poli Sci major. BA, so I had to take some fine arts. Chose theater, auditioned for a play, got a role. As a result, I don’t freeze up when public speaking (I’m in sales). I specialized in E Euro govt. my customers are in Hungary & Poland, they appreciate my knowledge of their countries.
This is actually a good example of why the customer model is wrong.

I wouldn't have chosen poetry writing, but UNC made me take a class. And it absolutely made me become a much better writer, with an eye to concision and an ear now trained to the rhythm of words. I'm a better historian as a result.
If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

I am so fucking tired of “journalists” asking a question of a Republican, the Republican saying “I’m not familiar with this case,” and the interview continuing. End the interview. If your GOP “expert” claims to be ignorant of facts, then they’re not an expert. Call someone able to discuss the facts.

BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake?

TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded

BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.
