I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.

Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.

The 25th is never happening.

As someone who mostly doesn’t write code anymore, I can say it’s the same for documents.

Write the documents and then inflict them on others to read. Or, they have another AI summarize for them. And so the cycle continues.

Are single-digit billionaires the new working class?

A private jet flying from deep blue Teterboro, NJ to deep blue Marin County might not be the first place you would expect to find MAGA supporters; but passengers Liesel Worthington van Rhijn and Thad Hohenzollern XI say that a wealth tax in NYC will reduce meritocracy

In today’s volatile economy, hard working low income billionaires are finding themselves caught in the crossfire of highly partisan politics. We spoke with several billionaires who are struggling to come up with both bribe money for President Trump and having to pay Mayor Mamdani’s wealth tax.

Is it too early to say that Trump adopted a new tone in his State of the Union address?

Can they take some of us with them when they go back? Maybe we can alter the timeline.

This has been my experience in the workplace over a couple decades as an elder millennial. The older generation of women has not been supportive.

There's so much other stuff going on that's absolutely horrifying that I worry this won't make much noise. It's absolutely horrifying.

Especially Boomer women. They largely have the attitude of β€œit happened to me, so you can put up with it, too.”

Starting to really feel the capitalism squeeze at my job. It started two to three years ago, but the turn of the screw continues and it’s getting tight.

Selling stuff on the internet is not worth sending my blood pressure sky high. It’s really not. I have a feeling I’m not alone, though.

I am pretty well into a script titled "you are being misled about renewable energy"

Not gonna pull out studies. Don't need to go over climate change.

Just a simple, plain conversation where we look at the realities of renewables vs. fossil fuels and I say "stop letting Republicans lie to you"

It's inevitable, you simply must adapt to it and use it, you have no choice, but also please use it more or it's going to die

Hot take here: Democrats running for Congress are not our best messengers in this election cycle! Give the megaphone to the folks who can actually do stuff to make life cheaper.

Yo journalists you don’t need to lead your stories with propaganda quotes under the delusion you’re being objective rather than played. If you don’t understand the psychological concept of primacy do some homework so you can be objective rather than a collaborator.

I agree with his take on LLMs, but take issue with his motivation. Why try to get to a β€œsuperintelligence” at all? If that’s the goal, then by all means, continue toiling on the LLMs.

Yup. Seems like a glaring indictment of investment capitalism that by design it does not allow anything to be perfected. Things can be good enough!
