Remember when Howard Dean yelled because of an inadequate sound system and it cost him his presidential bid? Those were the days.

"Fast-track", "nuclear reactor" and "untested" should never be in the same sentence unless there are plenty of negatives between them (preferably an odd number).
A new Trump program “will fast-track construction of new & untested reactor designs built by private firms, with an explicit goal of having at least 3 nuclear test reactors up & running by…July 4.” Critics worry that the tight deadline & “lack of transparency” are “compromising safety.” 12/17/25…1/
Trump’s rush to build nuclear reactors across the U.S. raises safety worries
A new program at the Department of Energy is pushing the development of nearly a dozen new reactor designs at breakneck speed.

Q: How many protesters have been killed in Iran.

TRUMP: Nobody has been able to give me an accurate number. Everything is a lot. One is a lot.

NGL, if you invested in this, you kind of deserve to get rugged.
Eric Adams, former NYC mayor, launched a memecoin (cryptocurrency) today. He marketed it as an “NYC Token” and used media appearances and his social media to promote it.

Within hours, Adams then drained its liquidity, apparently having scammed investors out of $3.4 million—a move called a rug pull.

You asked for this @heavydishongry.bsky.social
Eric Adams has apparently been in Congo in addition to Dubai this month, he said on Fox Business this morning.

He's back in NYC today to announce "New York City Coin," a crypto token, the proceeds of which he says will be used to fight antisemitism and "anti-Americanism."

It's a small thread, but a good one.
So here's my unsolicited, probably ill thought-out AI musing:

Generative AI was a tool invented out of unnecessity, a classic could/should Goldblum scenario. It's the Jurassic Park of computing. A solution in need of a problem.

I want a reporter to press him to name the last Democratic policy to be enacted in Ohio. Of course, reporters are cowards anymore, so they won't.

I hate having to connect to my VPN to check my DMs on Bluesky just because I live in Ohio.

If you're more upset about someone saying fuck than you are about a government agent murdering someone, well you are a stupid fucking piece of human garbage. How's that?

Ah memories. I was blocked by Charlie for my smart-assed answer along the lines of, "Yes, it really is a joke dreamt up in the 1960s."

PEOPLE ONLINE: "Call your senators and reps and tell them to oppose Trump."

ME: "Ok, let's see...Ohio, I'm sure they'll listen to their constituents."

Sen. Bernie Moreno (R)
Sen. John Husted (R)
Rep. Max Miller (R)

"What a bunch of assholes."

I'm glad this decision is completely well thought out and researched.

Oh.

Fuck.
First CES panel. Intuit CMO Thomas Ranese is proud of his company's integration with OpenAI, which involves giving AI read/write access to tax data. Since prompt injection attacks are unavoidable, I asked him who will be liable when customer data is exposed: Intuit, OpenAI, etc?

He had no idea.

I don't think AI is sentient but I'm still quite sentimentally attached to the idea that Grok hates Musk and is constantly fighting against the sycophancy built into its programming

Huh, my former Catholic high school (class of '92) sends me mail in which they invariably beg for money. They charge almost $16,000 per year for tuition.
