Tech is political. Hope is a catalyst. The future blooms from a healthy disrespect for the sanctity of technology.

I think these two talks by @mor10.com are excellent for framing how we think about “AI” in a more human-empowered way. Healthy skepticism in it, understanding how it works, and using the right words.

Violently stupid, violently dangerous; Trump's Kakistocratic government and their supporters are Vibe Governing based on far-right conspiracy theories and anti-science idiocy. Autism isn't caused by Tylenol. This incompetence should be cause for immediate disbarment. www.bbc.com/news/article...
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sues Tylenol makers over autism claims
He accuses them of hiding alleged dangers from the drug, following the Trump administration's unproven claim it is linked to autism.

Why are some people entrenched in ideas you find puzzling? Why do they think your ideas are bizarre? Information bubbles! And algorithms! My new book for kids--and adults!--explains it all, with humour. It drops Nov 11. Pre-order today!

Is anyone running year-over-year stats on international attendance at big US tech conferences? I'm curious to see what the dropoff looks like. People I talk to in Europe and Canada are either not buying tickets or cancelling their tickets to major events.

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

Anyone being surprised by this has not been paying attention for the past decade. Putin's Man in the White House does Putin's bidding. Always has.
FOX REPORTER: “The way it felt in the room was not good. It did not seem like things went well. It seemed like Putin came in and steamrolled, got right into what he wanted to say, got his photo next to the president, then left.”

The heat of Republican fury if Biden met with Putin in Alaska would have created its own weather system.
Instead we watch the abdication of a nation to a tyrant, delivered by the weakest man who ever lived.
