When they start making secret lists, that’s bad.

the “you should love ai” line is best outlined by a recent joe rogan episode. he LOVES ai music and always tells guests this. a guest pushed back on him saying “i’ve heard ai podcasts are amazing too” and joe rogan immediately pushes back. losers love it until it comes for them

Everyone loves AI so much that companies have to quietly smuggle it into our lives and hope nobody notices.

That’s definitely what popularity looks like!

Donald Trump has instructed the entire FBI to prioritize finding ways to bring charges against anti-fascists and other activists. Any FBI agent who wants to advance his career now has an incentive to set up naïve kids for an entrapment case.

Please read about entrapment and how to protect yourself.

This change will result in more opaque decisions where subject area experts have less input. And feedback to grant submitters will be significantly reduced. It’s a step backward. And it’s a direct result of their reorganization and reduction of the NSF.
🧵 NSF is reducing external review requirements and eliminating routine expert panels, citing staff shortages that this administration implemented. This change expands program officer authority. But the solution to flawed accountability isn't less public accountability.

We’re not running out of good ideas, but the tech fetishists who have no ideas other than “but I put a lot of money and emotion into this basket” always do, and their narcissism does not allow them to consider that their failed ideas suck, and the flop sweat is palpable.

I really want to emphasize that this is a winnable fight, but everyone has to chip in in order to do so! Please dont sit it out expecting others to stand in your place!

And dont ignore local/state level stuff! As these state laws get overturned, the narrative behind the Fed ones lose steam!

Netchoice won their legal battle against Age verification in louisiana! This follows similar rulings in AK and OH!

So many well-paid and well-known analysts and reporters somehow still don’t grasp that all those drone pilots in Ukraine are on the front lines and are constantly in extreme danger, not sitting in a climate-controlled trailer 1000 miles away from the action

Agreed. There was a point I felt vaguely okay with him but he has gone full mask off. Praising RFK. Vetoing state wide AI regulations. Flirting with white supremacy.

He can retire to his millions and we don’t need to hear from him again.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.
