THIS IS SO FUCKING FUNNY

One of the largest accounts on Crypto Twitter, extremely right wing and pro-Israel, cheered on Elon purchasing Twitter.

“Bring back Jack’s algo” he says “we don’t want to see right wing politics”

LOOOOOOL
peak comedy, right wing CT had enough of messing with the twitter algo

As promised, audio of Intuit CMO Thomas Ranese answering my questions is in today's episode of It Could Happen Here.

You can also listen to him admit he has no idea what happens when your financial data gets stolen here.

It is impossible to overestimate how thoroughly US infra is owned. CISA, an excellent idea, was the _start_ of trying to fix it. Now it’s an empty shell at best.
The Chinese hacked into most of our sensitive systems and spied on powerful people, for YEARS. The companies involved covered it up and the Trump administrations' "fix" was to destroy our cybersecurity protections and corporate oversight.

the press, generally, yawned and put the story on page four

The author of a viral Reddit thread alleging fraud at a food delivery company tried to back up his claim by sending me AI-generated documents. Today I'm publishing those documents in the hopes that it helps other reporter see what we're up against in the age of AI www.platformer.news/fake-uber-ea...

Everyone knows the PS3 Cell processor.


I bet you didn't know Toshiba had a strange, cut-down Cell as a PCI-E card…for video processing.


Essentially an early form of AI upscaling, the card also implemented face detection!
