“The entire purpose of science is to search for existential truths,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told me. “It’s not subjective. It should be objective. I believe science is a place where you can find unity if you can get a conversation going.” www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Wait, so the comparison to Enron wasn’t just figurative? Meta is just doing the same exact thing that Enron did to finance data center construction?

What pisses me off is that the AI bubble WILL fucking pop and drag the economy down with it and the industry will inevitably get bailed out, which is honestly such a great long con.
Here's why concerns about an AI bubble are bigger than ever
Tech companies are pouring billions into AI chips and data centers. Increasingly, they are relying on debt and risky tactics. Financial analysts are worried there's a bubble that will soon pop.

the premise of season 5 of the wire doesn’t seem so ridiculous now, does it?
Sure. "The Grand Jury did not see the operative indictment" is the kind of fuckup where lawyers literally don't actually know what happens next because it SO fundamental a thing that it is LITERALLY possible nobody had even thought of this as a thing that could happen.

It wasn’t moderation specifically, but I’ve done high-volume triage and follow up using tools that were insufficient and designed for a completely different workflow. Everything takes longer than it should and mistakes are inevitable.
Real example, the moderation software doesn't allow images to be emailed (currently), so mods were typing a summary description of the image and alt text. Users then file appeals since it wasn't the same alt text that they posted, so it clearly wasn't a violation.

looking great, mister president, top notch, they're saying things like "no one's ever stuffed more padding into a suit", and, "everyone can notice how great you look, you know, considering the circumstances" and "it's great when a man finally learns to stop worrying about his hair"

Oh so Fetterman was like, kinda dead for a minute at least. Wild.
Oh see I thought his fall injured him, who the fuck is out here saying “ventricular fibrillation flare-up” and not just “going into cardiac arrest”?
Like sure they’re not the same thing, but he definitely went into cardiac arrest if he had a V-fib flare up

Moral clarity is probably a confusing an and scary concept when your entire professional life has been devoted to sucking up to those in power. @chatterton.bsky.social delete your account and quit your job.
The left’s embrace of moralized rhetoric might seem harmless, but to win back power, Democrats will need “precisely the kind of introspection and self-criticism that moralism precludes,” @chatterton.bsky.social argues.

Under Trump, progressives have embraced the rhetoric of “moral clarity.” It won’t help their cause.
