The Kelsey (disability-forward affordable housing developer/advocacy org) is hiring a senior manager of land use/bldg code, who'd lead a coalition for…ELEVATOR REFORM! Remote, pays up to $120k + benefits. Would involve working some with me, happy to talk if you're interested thekelsey.org/careers/

I support a deal over the strait of hormuz because it's a tax on oil. If you're a true leftist you agree.

I don't think this is true. I'd say that billionaires and tech split broadly similarly to the entire country. Which isn't really a huge credit to them but I think there's some revisionism going on.

WALTER CRONKITE (gravely):

For me, these takes would be more compelling if they weren't happening in retrospect. The math guys *predicted* and then manifested AI starting in 1957, with the Perceptron, if not before. The critique thinkpieces started like 5 mins ago. I try to tune into takes with longer-term predictive value.

AI is really so dangerous. it's always luring you into LLM psychosis, trying to convince you of things. but no matter how often claude tells me to get therapy, i will stand tall and refuse

let's be real though… they're both PR jobs where you destroy your body for people watching at home

Wired has a piece out today on the topic of the Woke 2 meme. Their conclusion? It's not a real cultural moment, because culture right now is when right wingers do things. Bad take and I disagree!

re my op -- is it ok if my id is dl re my bf if he is an ai ?? ik im yt so my gc is on it rn .. we dk if he is yt or if he is ?? so we dk if dl is ok to id as .. if it is up to me ig dl is ok ?? do we fw it or is it un pc or ?? dm me ur 2c if yk if dl is ok if im yt re an ai bf

i would love a blocklist / labeler for "aggressively joins pile-ons" and "borderline malicious reading comprehension"

"the cruelty is the point" can be true about posters as well

shutting down the hormuz strait forever actually goes way beyond the ambitions of any ecoterrorist. he's going for the nobel for climate action.

this place continues to fascinate me

they're doing 156 quote-skeets about a five like tweet on bluesky

people like to depict the culture of optimizing the body as a neurotic, ascetic thing but i think that's just if you're bad at it i got good at it and now i feel full of energy and mentally clear all the time. it feels great just to be alive!

funny statement because it deliberately avoids disputing that they mischaracterized, only defending that they remained within the bounds of factuality

i have been talking about how twitter needs to implement this since 2019

i don't want to relitigate gamergate but now seems to be as good as any to say that in the first few months, I think it really was about the chud-gap between gamers and games writers, and the chuds feeling that writers had immense disdain for them. I think they were right about that.

what Barack Obama would say if you walked up to him in a video game and pressed A

i feel strongly that Sanae Takaichi will give us great memes in the years ahead

Anti-AI sentiment is going to put us years behind in pursuing the long-run important leftist issue: Token Inequality.

these are extremely large effect sizes in an area where large effect sizes are unusual. I am sure that this paper change everyone's approaches to the topic, and less effective and more coercive methods will fall out of the conversation.

There are certain types of political thought that are not possible unless you understand what it means for the causes or effects of something to have a power law distribution.

literally every time someone on here has a little teeny manic episode and starts posting slurs the whole app decides how important it is to make them famous… truly everyone is 12 years old

we really are getting the green new deal the hard way

some people on here transparently crossing the line into actually not understanding the claims marc is making

this is the most pennsylvanian woman. none of you are familiar with pennsylvanian stereotypes so you don't understand this. this is the PA version of parking yah car in harvard yahd

every election makes me believe more and more that we need delegated liquid democracy and an end to "representative government"

in my life, I run into so many earnest, kind, honest, brilliant people I sometimes feel like a mess or a failure in comparison. going online and reading the comments always makes me feel better

a lot of posters on here seem bought into a distinctly woke 1 conception that the way to maximize their leverage in setting social norms is to collapse all opprobrium to their best attempt at a social death sentence i don't think they're right!

i think people are getting very lazy in going after the tech industry lately. they used to be a little more serious about it.

all of these things, china is better at. if you are serious about these positions you need to start pushing to import them from china. you would not believe the new apples they have. truly mindboggling stuff. illegal in the us.

I think one of the weird issues we are dealing with is that with a lot of spending going through 1099 workers at some level, the middle class is sort of "bosses" in the Kalecki sense now.

AI is like a railroad for the mind. Someone's gonna try to tell you that's bad but I love trains so I can't be convinced.

can someone make a blocklist that just filters out everyone who does moderate vs leftist coalition infighting. last thing keeping this site from being usable

i think a lot of bluesky posters who see this place as tainted by the stench of crypto and contractualism are tacitly bought into a mode of legalistic legitimation that has never done for them what they wish it would, and fail to see the strangely radical conceit of portable identity for what it is

Some people are calling it the flag of Woke 2

i kinda think that between the data centers and the concentration camp warehouses it is probably gonna be necessary to pick one to destroy and the forces of nimbyism are likely to choose the data centers

A good way to save money is to buy a ~$50 bottle of wine (which would run you ~$120 in a restaurant) and invite your friends over to drink it.

i love the Gill Sans with diagonal drop shadow table over a livestream of the house Bowling Score video display monitor type representation of reality

the bluesky devs need to apologize for not fixing my mental health issues

it's crazy how all the guys emailing epstein were also publishing psych papers with fake data

not to be too woke but the focus on "being held accountable" is tacitly carceral

I make a small cameo in this piece, alongside the venerated @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social. I am pleased to confirm that we are indeed going to win. www.vanityfair.com/culture/stor...

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier

once again i would like to point out that contrary to expectations, ATMs did not reduce bank teller employment, with ATMs introduced in the 70s and bank tellers peaking in 2005. bank tellers did see qualitative changes in the job, however. and online banking did later reduce bank teller employment.

the true technology enjoyers have a much more sophisticated understanding easy times lead to RAM surplus RAM surplus leads to bad software bad software leads to hard times hard times lead to RAM shortage RAM shortage leads to good software good software leads to easy times

Darrell won't say it, but I will: it's time to defund the fire department.

a lot of you lot turning into the elementary school teachers who hated wikipedia
