Yeah and as I wanted to buy my favs at around -60, -70% discount, Binance just gave a "sytem load too high" middle finger message.
Ofc ofc. They just wipe everyone out but you can't buy in at those prices.
What a crime circus.

This is beyond bad. All of our disease defenses are down now. We are sitting ducks. This is #RussellVought #DonaldTrump. They are endangering American lives with their insane crusade. These men are hazardous to your health and dangerous to the republic.

What an emblem of the billionaire class—descending on a peaceful city in a private jet on the horn to NYT asking for the place to be invaded by federal authorities because the rent-a-cops you employ for a week to harass a few junkies outside the convention center cost too much.
Mr. Benioff spoke as his annual Dreamforce conference is set to begin Tuesday in downtown San Francisco, bringing 50,000 visitors to the city. He is scheduled to deliver a keynote address about the benefits of "agentic enterprise," a business model in which humans and artificial intelligence bots work together.
Speaking by telephone from his private plane en route to San Francisco, he lamented that he has to pay for nundreds of off-duty law enforcement officers to help patrol the convention area and said that San Francisco needed to "re-fund" the police.
The city never actually "defunded" its police force, and San Francisco's violent crime rates are below those in many other U.S. cities.
But San Francisco has struggled to recruit and keep officers, and it still has problems with lower-level crimes and open-air drug use, especially in neighborhoods like the Tenderloin near City Hall. It has about 1,500 police officers, and Mr. Benioff says it ne → another thousand.

“Are these tariffs ‘Liberation Day 2’?” Or will we get another ‘TACO Tuesday?’

This is how we all talk now. Absurd. 🌮

benioff is a pathetic man. every time i see his face i think of when he was at wef on a panel with sam altman, and instead of engaging like a normal person, he was sitting there with his phone out recording altman from the other end of the panel.

We can have democracy or we can have billionaires.
We cannot have both.

From the linked blog, “generative AI cannot tell a user how it arrived at a decision when it grades or evaluates work” - this is key and if parents are unaware of what’s happening (which they are) they should use this to push back. Demand the explanations for evaluations.

"President Trump continued to describe Portland as a city on fire Friday even as residents enjoyed the first fall rain and the lone demonstrator at the city’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement building was dressed as a pink Care Bear."

Sometimes there is a good sentence or two in the NYT.

There are now one or two of Elon Musk's Starlink satellites falling back to Earth every single day.

According to Smithsonian astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell, that figure is only going to keep climbing.

Are they actually good for/at those things? I mean actually, in reality of the output if you try to use them for that? Or is that just the hype/advertising line from the people trying to make them a thing?

This is the right question and it’s wild how rarely I see people who report on this stuff ask it.

Genuine question - what are OpenAI’s Sora and other video generation tools good for?

I am honestly trying to understand what is so important that it’s worth the cost. If you have examples, I would be interested to hear them.

Mamdani: Trump ran on three promises. He ran on the punishment of his political enemies, easing the cost of living crisis, and mass deportation. It's that second promise that brought so many to his campaign. Yet he's unwilling to deliver on that because he's beholden to billionaires

Man, the Qataris are making out like bandits with this peace agreement. They get an air force facility in Idaho. And they're getting all the credit for the ceasefire. And all it took was a jet to the president and Israel striking Doha (which led to Bibi apologizing and Trump dogwalking him).

This is one of the funniest bits from that ESPN article. This would annoy the shit out of me as well.
Quote from ESPN article -
RB Dante Miller:

"I've never seen [some]one chew seeds louder. He eats loud. He does everything loud. It's quiet [in the meeting room] and he's munching on seeds and I'm like, this is not normal.

"What's a crazy cartoon character? That's a very, very good comparison. Like the Tasmanian Devil. I like that. But he chews his seeds very loud."

Mike Johnson: "We're so angry about it. I mean, I'm a very patient guy, but I've had it with these people. The theory we have right now -- they have a hate America rally that's scheduled for October 18 on the National Mall. It's the pro-Hamas wing and antifa people ... "

Lmao. Of course she thinks Elon Musk is a shining example of how to efficiently run a large organization. I feel bad about what’s happening to CBS News, but this is going to be tremendous content. She’s not going to do or say anything without it leaking immediately.

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."
