I know this is just the nature of doing news in the US but it does seem bizarre and a little vile that most of the top-line-item news stuff about the war against Iran is the impact on gas prices and not "we've murdered over 1,300 civilians in Iran including around 170 girls in a school"
we have saved daylight
but at what cost
True independent thinkers don't change their clocks just because everyone else does. I will do my own research and determine what time it is
US media insist something isn’t confirmed as real unless the US government say it is
They’re not investigating. They knew what happened on Day 1 because they did it. They’re just waiting until the timing is right on a Friday evening in a few months to say oh yeah it was us oops

There's a sea creature whose common name is the pikachu nudibranch and I need everyone to see it immediately.
ooh you invented a new time zone
The New York Times and its senior editorial boss, who acts like a sleeper-cell hasbara propagandist
Um, Fort Campbell middle school would like a word. We have many schools on bases, and Bolton knows it. More ghoulish nonsense from war Hawks to justify the murder of little girls.
Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.
OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying…
“Surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got”
Which is why scientists take the unresolved questions seriously, while bluesky social media poasters exhibit 100% confidence that it’s all a plot by anyone interested to make sam altman rich
That isn’t marketing. It’s science. Science evolves in part by clarifying concepts and how they relate to each other aka paradigms
We’re talking about a complex emergent phenomenon that humans can’t yet explain
We can name many things that don’t have good enough definitions. “Crab” wasn’t defined properly until we had an understanding of DNA sequencing
“Gold” and “water” weren’t defined properly until chemistry
Challenge for those who are very confident that Claude isn't conscious: Explain how human consciousness works.
“It’s time to check in for your flight!” … is it, though? The flight’s tomorrow. Chill
this is so amazing …. it’s the sun
Amazing news everyone !
ADL now getting “community notes” for disinformation on X
Rotating villain strategy. Every. Single. Time.
Ooops we lost the vote by the exact number that defected

“A country that can instantly fund endless wars but debates every dime for healthcare and education doesn't have a budget issue--it has a values issue."
A billion dollars a day going towards the war in Iran so far.
sure - it’s not dispositive that these abstract ideologies are theoretically the same thing. it’s dispositive that they’re almost all reprehensible assholes
The same thing was said about Maduro!
It was funny to see, I don't even remember which US newspaper it was anymore, but an obit of Ali Khamenei said something to the effect of "he lived a paranoid life in which he believed the US and Israel were out to kill him, which eventually happened"
When the chips were down, 90% of them sided with it tho

I think one of the most staggering industry shifts in my 16 years as a tech reporter is that it’s not become a question of “should our product help the government kill and/or surveil people?” but “to what extent?”

Representatives from around 40 countries gathered in The Hague on Wednesday to examine a range of potential measures aimed at holding Israel accountable for its ongoing genocide in Gaza and its illegal occupation of Palestinian territory.
