The thesis of the book is that early COVID lockdowns weren't worth it and mid-COVID mitigation measures like masks, contact tracing and business closures don't work.
This is laughably false and the authors have endorsed the people now running Trump's HHS.

Everyone involved in the publication and promotion of this book should be embarrassed. It's not a "harsh truth" that COVID mitigation was a mistake, it's ghoulish and false.

If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career
The University of Oklahoma has removed an instructor who was accused by a student of religious discrimination over a failing grade on a psychology paper in which she cited the Bible and argued that promoting a “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” https://cnn.it/4b6g3rd

In fact, one of a trio of government censorship conspiracy allegations that Roth was listing and demolishing one by one. Misrepresentation so brazen as to beggar belief, getting accolades from leading publishers. This is what an actual "clown world" looks like. 🤦

Putting AI Datacenters in space would not solve their waste heat problem
It makes it worse and anyone who suggests it has just proven they are not an authority on the subject

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

No you can't. Telling a computer to paint something for you is not remotely the same as painting something yourself, what is wrong with these people

There's also the point that knowing *who* wrote the code affects how you deal with it. If you're reviewing problematic code you need to teach the author what's wrong and what's better, so they can improve.
