My latest on Russia assisting Iran in targeting U.S. troops and interests.
And a reminder on how Russia did this before in Afghanistan, when they offered bounties to Taliban militants to kill Americans.
I have completely stopped shopping there, even though it's the most convenient place for me to get a lot of everyday items.
No money for ICE or their supporters.
As a country, we will degrade as Russia under Putin: More corruption and violence, home and abroad. We have lost trust, and next step is sanctions.
The rest of the world doesn't need the US. They can trade and travel around us. And will. There will be a decade of economic inertia, but in the end...
You listed the Mac XL. Damn.
Had one of those in '85, dual booting UNIX and Mac.
"the algorithmic filter bubble"?
Tell me more about that algorithm, Jack. What system is is running on?
We have to keep minds open.
When I was a freshman in college, I had to set up a standalone unix system. Halfway thru the process, I started getting email from "root". It wasn't even connected to the network!
I know there's a ghost hiding in the machine. It emailed me.

Have you tried No Man's Sky?
The children were murdered by the people deploying a hallucination machine for military targeting.
It’s a war crime, like carpet bombing.
Fantastic tool! Thanks!
Sad data, but fantastic tool.
I have different opinions.
I review LLM-generated code far more often than I like. It's the worst part of my job, and probably my career.
I really want to see a John Henry-style humans vs AI code-off. With a 6-month follow-up to see how that genAI code is doing.
Counter-point: A lot of people hold unfounded beliefs about the capabilities of LLMs because they spend more time and attention on marketing bull than objective studies of capabilities.
If you have objective peer-reviewed evidence about LLMs outperforming human devs, please share.
I had the same problem.
I saw strange warnings attached to a post, “this person my be a member of antifa”, my first thought was “utter bullshit and I blocked the mod service.
“Just keep swimming, Mr. Frodo”
That’s bullshit.
You literally pulled that out of your ass after ranting about “journalistic integrity”.
Got any studies? Or is bias and uninformed opinions all you got?
I wonder if he's just stupid, in the most arrogant way possible. Or if he had a decent education including history and ethics and he's just a sociopath.
1. Birds of feather flock together.
2. As many as necessary to stay out of prison, with the complete destruction of the planet preferable to giving up power. It's the same with President Child-Raper.
Dear @bsky.app,
How does one submit a bug report against the Bluesky Moderation Service?
It seems to have hallucinated an "antifa organization", and if that's the expected quality of "moderation services", then it is indeed time to find a new Atmosphere platform.
Empty words from a disgrace who could have done something about it.
I’m proud of you. Not everyone stands up and calls out bullshit.
It’s a shame the Pedo in Chief is a war criminal, and the whole military is acting on illegal orders.
A disgrace, really. I thought our military stood for something.
Turns out, the US military stands for killing schoolgirls and protecting pedophiles.
War by spellcheck.
That name got mentioned a few times, so it becomes part of the target package.
“Top 1000 military targets” will produce roughly the same results as “Top 1000 tourist destinations“ in a hallucinating AI.
Are children or schools military targets?
Miss me with you rationalization and bullshit. Conscientious objectors have existed since Rome. The war is illegal, the strikes are illegal, the “soldiers” are committing crimes against humanity.
They have sworn to reject illegal orders.
They didn’t.
That does not represent integrity or leadership. It’s contrary to oaths and honor.
And you should be ashamed of the war crimes committed by US military. Why aren’t you?
Every time I get a human, they sound so exhausted.
Look. I gotta put food on the table, gas in the Hummer. If I gotta bet on bombing young children to get the odds... Life's tough, kids. Suck it up.
Blah. Blah. Blah.
What's he's doing is illegal and unconstitutional. And you're standing by and watching it happen.
Act. Rally your peers. Impeach. Convict. Remove.

Look upon my Box, ye Mighty, and despair!
Arrr, me matey!
Enders' Game was published in '85, and I suspect was an influence.
It was the first thing I thought of watching the clip: children playing a video game co-opted into war because they're really piloting remote weapon platforms.
