I would like to point out that just because the emperor got chucked into a warp core, the empire persisted for three more movies.

I'm beginning to think the only thing The Matrix got wrong was using people for energy instead of training data.

Best characterization of LLMs — and their limits — I've seen yet.
Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

"Nobody’s going to spit on our police officers," says Trump, who four months ago pardoned people who beat police officers with pipes, flagpoles, baseball bats and 2-by-4s at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

It's a fairly tale about the miller's youngest son who inherits a cat.

The cat tells the miller's son that he can make him rich and famous by manipulating social networking, but he needs money to buy some automation.

I call it, "Puss in Bots".

We’re deeply disappointed in much of the U.S. media. Grateful, however, to international journalists who are telling the truth.

I guess Stephen Miller ordered the invasion of CA while Trump was out partying!
Trump is at a UFC fight tonight as Pentagon announces it is deploying federalized National Guard troops in California.

Very weird/disturbing alignment. Historic moment perhaps.

“Even some MAGA Republicans warn that the bill’s deep Medicaid cuts will hammer Trump’s working-class base. Trump is actively deceiving his base by pretending those cuts only target fraud. Musk, similarly, would use the ‘waste, fraud & abuse’ canard to absolutely annihilate the state if he could.”
If you strip away the egos and shitposting, the Trump-Musk feud is really an argument over how comprehensively to screw over poor and working people—over how best to make our society a meaner, crueler, less equal, more savage place.

New piece from me:

The Real Reason for the Trump-Musk Feud is Uglier than You Think
Strip away the ego contest, and what you really see here is a competition about how screw over poor and working people more effectively.

Federal law enforcement is pushing its authority and people exercising their First Amendment right to protest are at risk of abuse.

This is a coup.

Resist.

Now they’re using tear gas & stun grenades on the crowds that witness their cowardly “raids.” They’re shit-scared. This is gonna lead to bystander deaths.

Look at these zilches in their Judge Dredd cosplay. This is the happiest moment of their miserable, forgettable lives.
Unbelievable!
Today, San Diego witnessed a government-sanctioned kidnapping. ICE stormed Buona Forchetta in military gear ripping workers away, then unleashing tear gas and smoke on the terrified community. Full on police state, fascism now used on American citizens. Stay aware.
