The Grammarly conversation goes back to what's still troubling me about AI:
Why is the effort to shove AI down our throats stronger than the will to let people use their intellect to create?
Transferring our critical thinking skills to a computer for profit is a losing proposition for all of us.

Listening to the BBC discuss student debt and fiscal pressures with a multipartisan panel. This is what intelligent media looks like and sounds like. It really stands as a contrast to the ridiculous, bloviating, anti-edifying panels we see on the likes of CNN.

Imagine a world where Americans were smarter and didn’t applaud when reactionary idiot Ronald Reagan made a show out of removing the solar panels Jimmy Carter had installed on the White House. We wouldn’t now have to worry about affording to fill gas tanks next month.

Schumer: "Iran doesn't have Tomahawk missiles, Donald Trump! The claim is beyond asinine. He says whatever pops into his head no matter what the truth is. And we all know he lies, but on something as formidable as this, it's appalling."

while I was disappointed that AXIS was selected over STROBE-X, I would not have ever wanted their concept study not to proceed and this is a loss for the entire field and a sign of how much Donald Trump and his goons have damaged science in the United States and NASA in particular 🔭🧪

In 1932, two newlyweds packed a folding kayak with:
• hard-boiled eggs
• chocolate
• strawberries
• two bottles of brandy
Then they pushed out into the Black Sea as refugees from the Soviet Union.

Now that this has been out there for 24 hours, we can safely say that Joe Biden presiding over the end of the War in Afghanistan enraged the press way more than Donald Trump’s White House going “Who gives a shit if Russia is helping Iran target our troops.”
Lovely media ecosystem we’ve got here.

SCOTUS ruled that Donald Trump's tariffs are illegal, and he's refusing to give US voters a legal refund.
His form of "immigration enforcement" has led to US citizens being detained and/or killed.
And he gets irritated when you point out that Russia is helping Iran target US military assets.

The Obama administration weighed this option and concluded it was insane - and in that case, the plan was clandestine and not being broadcast as it is now. So file this one under galaxy-level insane.
