Whip the Dem caucus, and whip it good. Given the small GOP margin, this may be passable if every Democrat votes for it.
I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

But also, I would ask that people try to have at least a little bit of grace in not immediately jumping to conclusions that someone explaining something is endorsing everything bad.

Now that we're on to the stage of companies beginning to rehire after being... overeager with LLMs, we should watch which similarly situated ones don't.
Those were just stealth layoffs.

Interacting with an LLM is like talking to characters from a cheap TV drama.
It enables you to ask the TV doctor for a diagnosis or the TV hacker how to break in to the Fed, and it will give you an answer that looks plausible to a layperson who is half-paying attention.

I'm late to the "Liquid Glass" party, and now wish I'd stayed away longer. This is crap.
I'd be fine if I just found it ugly, but this is bad as in incompetent. Pointless, distracting motion that has no meaning, rendering text-over-text is common, legibility is way down.

After NATO’s “concern” over russian drones breaching Poland’s airspace — with some not even shot down — I’m convinced: NATO should be applying to join Ukraine, not the other way around.

I've been trying to verbalize my reaction to the "Abundance" thing for a while, and it has been difficult to nail down.
The thing that I find most off-putting is the self-conscious attempt at crafting a permission structure like they're trying to focus-group a more appealing Dorito.

Apple's customer service is brittle and shitty these days. They're a vending machine with a smug affect, which is a really unappealing thing to deal with. I'd rather talk to a check cashing place; at least the smarm is honestly earned there.
