It's difficult to understate how poor a job the ADL has done in their mission to fight antisemitism, but is there anything particularly antisemitic about what Trump said regarding Reiner? All I've seen is the Truth Social post

I recall @gregshill.com observing that this is perhaps the only example of law breakers unilaterally being able to rewrite the law just by repeatedly breaking it

But also worth generalizing from this to how LLMs impact the creation of anything. If we're not careful about our metrics or incentives this technology can just accelerate us in the wrong direction in any area

To be clear it's a fact that they have new machines as of this last week. I'm guessing that the machines are also able to scan credit cards

Caltrain conductors have new fare checking machines that I assume can scan credit cards in addition to clipper cards (this is just a guess)

Makes a lot more sense then

Maybe she should start with the social media postings of the man who is currently POTUS, and one of his largest and most powerful supporters, rather than taking shots at Newsom (whose post is actually totally fine)
