Why is he being monitored so aggressively? Because the same drugs that can help keep him lucid can "asplode hiz brane". Very delicate balance between hiding his dementia and completely incapacitating him.

Bluesky as old-school urban dictionary
In the long-ago times, there used to be an LAPD propaganda series on broadcast TV called Adam-12.
The TV police were polite, respectful,and lawful.
L.A. citizens under LAPD knew better.
Citizens created a nickname for police, "12."
Fuck 12 means fuck the police.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

So they're gonna make the argument that what I did was against the moral order of our society, but that what these healthcare CEOs are doing is somehow fully in line with it.

This is instructive and helpful because most folks miss warning signs thinking it's just triangulated politician talk.
The subtext in JD Vance asking for "patience" on the economy: When leaders stop talking about current conditions and jump straight to rosy forecasts, they’re signaling the present isn’t defensible. That’s your cue to scrutinize the numbers, not just the narrative.

Nvidia understands that LLM-based AGI is a fool's errand and is happy to sell those fools the chips to prove it.

Nvidia also understands that there are other forms of AI that are viable like digital twin predictive modeling.

That's how the bubble doesn't fully pop. But there will be pain.
