The long-term impact is usually discussed in terms of white collar job destruction, but the threat of a regression in levels of skills and education is highly underestimated. It's not about future unemployment but future crippling.

I might be more willing to use AI if the the AI enthusiasts didn’t talk so much like

-people recruiting for a religious cult
-frat boys at my first college party trying to get me to drink the mysterious dark liquid from the red solo cup they just handed me
-19th century snake oil salesmen

We also want to emphasize that Signal Support will *never* initiate contact via in-app messages, SMS, or social media to ask for your verification code or PIN. If anyone asks for any Signal related code, it is a scam. We make this clear when users receive their SMS code during initial signup. 5/7

The difference between the spike in global oil prices now versus 2022 is that this time the US president single-handedly caused it to happen overnight with a policy while accepting no responsibility, while the US president in 2022 was blamed for it even though he didn’t cause it.

Absolutely. You’re not disagreeing with what I said at all.

Thanks for this. It felt off to me when I first saw that stat because I know a lot of Gen Z men and ok most of them are college students but they’re generally not at all like this compared even to the Gen X guys I went to uni with

ChatGPT is designed to package its answers so you feel like you got what you were looking for. It doesn’t actually evaluate things. If a smart person was in charge they’d have at least reviewed the answers it gave

I think a lot of people will read 3000 words, but I don’t think everyone who writes 3000 words needed 3000 words to write the thing they were writing. Those are the pieces that people won’t read to the end.

A bunch of those clips are of bad guys, surely? Does the US want to end up like Walter White or Kylo Ren

jesse singal suggesting that someone else has a professional stake in this is wild since it's the only story he's written in a decade

I actually think Talarico needs to join a lawsuit with Crockett . Unity is the only way forward. If he wins but loses Black Texas voters, then he loses the general.

Idaho considers an 'apocalyptic' choice for disabled people and families Difficult budget decisions in a number of states are threatening vital programs for disabled people at home and caregivers in the workforce.

States have started proposing steep reductions in disability services to cope with Medicaid cuts in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Idaho is the first to suggest scrapping home care altogether β€” An action with a high human cost. My latest @19thnews.org.
