Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

It’s crazy to have SIX dedicated security lines at LaGuardia airport just for Clear & give them priority at the THREE general boarding lanes. This is a tax-payer funded airport that seems to be trying to force people to give their biometric info over to a private company or get squeezed & squeezed.

America putting most of its eggs in the generative AI basket, China going hard into green tech. When history looks back on this period, someone is going to look awfully stupid.

This week I have had to conceptualize Bill Clinton receiving oral sex to a degree that, as someone who lived through the mid-90s, I never expected to have to do again.

Every time someone posts a screenshot of one of the Epstein emails, I pause and think “this one has to be fake; don’t get fooled into reposting a spoof.”
But then … they’re all real?

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.
We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.
We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

reminder David Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel both went on the record to Politico to say they were fine with this, either knowing the result would be mass death of children or being too dumb to know. Decide for yourself what’s worse!

1. Word is that some “centrist” Dems are eager for a deal with the president that would end the gov't shutdown. I don’t know what the incentive is. Just two days ago, Republican candidates were handed their asses in statewide elections in NJ, VA, MS & GA, as well as municipal elections nationwide.

Donald Trump has intentionally instructed the federal government to withhold emergency funding for SNAP - that is already paid for and set aside for just this purpose - that would cover almost 3 full weeks for all of the 42 million Americans who rely on it. Media is barely covering that fact at all.
