text from an article, zoomed in on for rhetorical effect. it reads "issuing bonds backed by Meta's rent. And multiple data-center leases can be combined into a security and sorted into what are called 'tranches' based on their risk of default. Data..."

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

They aren't bringing ID cards in to make people's lives easier, they are specifically bringing them in to make certain people's lives harder.

🧵 This is my favourite photo of Amsterdam, that I have taken. It includes the features I love - colour, mystery, quirkiness & atmosphere.

I take these ideas & create ink on archival paper one-off drawings to draw nature in dramatic colour, as you can see in this thread! [1]

coates is genuinely a generational writer
What are we to make of a man who called for the execution of the American president, and then was executed himself? What are we to make of an NFL that, on one hand, encourages us to "End Racism," and, on the other, urges us to commemorate an unreconstructed white supremacist? And what of the writers, the thinkers, and the pundits who cannot separate the great crime of Kirk's death from the malignancy of his public life? Can they truly be so ignorant to the words of a man they have so rushed to memorialize? I don't know. But the most telling detail in Klein's column was that, for all his praise, there was not a single word in the piece from Kirk himself.

One of the most prominent & respected philosophers was sold out by UC Berkeley. Free speech is only at the whim of the regime, & the constitution is now irrelevant in the US.

The current witch hunt in US academia is destroying its reputation & doing incalculable damage to the US education system
UC Berkeley shares 160 names with Trump administration in ‘McCarthy era’ move

like this is the most irresponsible level of hysteria i’ve ever seen. most of these people are either paid by the republican party, or are high level advisors and allies. this is insane

here are the costs associated with the Oracle database, in case anyone doesn't know. the costs can go up further depending on other options 😅 this is why you need to stick with opensource databases such as pgsql 🥰 the amount of freedom FLOSS brings to individuals & small businesses is unmeasurable

Sam Altman has got to the point where he doesn't even bother to describe stuff anymore. "Uhh yeah sometime you'll have a thingy that will do stuff. And wow will it be good!"
Sam Altman @sama someday soon something smarter than the smartest person you know will be running on a device in your pocket, helping you with whatever you want. this is a very remarkable thing.

Trump's AI Action Plan is even worse than I thought it'd be. It's a tech industry wishlist with every box ticked. It signals the further coherence of Silicon Valley and the Trump-led federal government into a cooperative, automation-bent surveillance state. It's a blueprint for dystopia.

The president is trying to give Silicon Valley nearly everything it wants — at a price.
