LLMs won't be fixed with more scraped and stolen data, more processing power, more iterations. Because what it fundamentally IS is. Not. Fixable.

But there's only one candidate who suddenly is labeled a monster by people with money. Who has experience in large scale government. So yeah, I'm voting for @xavierbecerra.bsky.social.

1. Caste. Most people in the west don’t understand that the waves of engineers and doctors who immigrated out of India in the 70s and onwards were ‘high’ caste folks, who resented the Indian equivalent of affirmative action for caste. Caste solidarity is very powerful…/

Even being there without paying is granting legitimacy and energy to Elon's extreme white nationalist political project

honestly other than politicians, for whom I have some sympathy on this front, the rest is all just very embarrassing

this.

“The President shall, at stated Times, receive for his Services, a Compensation, which shall neither be encreased nor diminished during the Period for which he shall have been elected, and he shall not receive within that Period any other Emolument from the U.S., or any of them.” [i.e. state govs]

Another one in this vein. Not sure who needs to hear this, but there is NO downside to messaging on Trump's terrorist slush fund. Either some right wingers defect, or you've got electoral gold.

i believe this is called a ponzi scheme. ALLEGEDLY. "20 percent of all Cybertrucks are registered under non-Tesla companies owned by Elon Musk." www.motortrend.com/news/tesla-c...

How can this condition be squared with the news that "settlement" also prevents the IRS from auditing Trump family and business taxes (also in violation of 26 U.S. Code § 7217).

Trump just directed his cronies to make him, his family and his friends exempt from our nation’s tax laws.

The opposition party could also be loudly declaring that prosecutions will occur in the future!

Example: a climate group representing younger Americans sues the President for failing to act on climate change. Immediate settlement announced endowing a $1trn green transition fund.

An average car driving 12,000 miles per year with 27 mpg pays only $80 per year in federal gas taxes (18 cents/gal). As much as the gas tax needs to go up, this is a massive scam that penalizes EVs and less frequent drivers compared to gas vehicles and heavy drivers.

ANYWAY: if I were one of the hundreds of thousands of Russians who emigrated to Crimea, I'd be packin' my bags. Cuz Ukraine is VERY determined to drop that bridge connecting it to the Russian mainland, and if that happens, those people are trapped in a literal warzone. Not Great!

And I can tell you, as a former Republican, that the GOP counts on that, and actively promotes cultural hot-button issues to bait Democrats into fighting among themselves. Works like a charm.

Those were the days my friend… #Pinks #Voices4Victory

it would be so much easier if elon would simply post "good morning, I am a specifically antiblack racist" every day when he wakes up so we can stop pretending that there's anything else going on here

The fact that Kash Patel is still in his job after demanding a "VIP snorkel" over the 900+ heroes entombed in the USS Arizona tells you everything you need to know about this administration.

The Epstein class is out in full daylight with this.

This is like complaining Fox News became right-wing because not enough liberals watch it. You have just as much control over that as you do X by using it. It is the product its owner wants it to be.

The American revolution is best understood by the American people as an uprising by the people against a wealthy elite who taxed the people and denied them equal representation. If this is the fight the right wants to have against AOC. Let’s. Fucking. Have. It. The tea is in the harbor.

A certain class of people have forgotten Democracy is the compromise we agreed to that keeps us from dragging them out of their palaces and cutting off their heads in the town square.

*laughs in archivist* It always amuses me at how little historical material is actually not only digitized but also made available online compared to what lay people think.

Another way of interpreting this is that it took Trump just 6 weeks to lose when normally it would have taken the losing side a lot longer.

We don't ordinarily publish posts at [checks watch] 8:51 PM on a Friday night, but state constitutional law expert Quinn @yeargain.bsky.social has an outside-the-box idea for reversing the VA Supreme Court that is very much worth taking seriously: Dems can simply lower the retirement age.

Elon is a genocidal demon and any Democrat who refuses to call him what he is a useless quisling. Any defense of that creature who has the blood of millions of children on his hands is flatly and totally intolerable among civilized people.

He launched the war to distract from the Epstein files, he just dropped the UFO files to distract from his war. And he’ll keep on trying to distract you from 1) All the money he, his pals, & his family are making, and 2) This economy that he has singlehandedly fucked up.

In Virginia, the governor's starting point needs to be: Voters spoke. We intend to implement their will. To address today's court interference, we are now exploring administrative steps necessary to respect both the law and the will of the people. But make no mistake: The vote will not be denied.

I'm not sure a whole lot else matters. Get the trifecta by 2028, then *do* something with it, or the House is gonna be gone outside of big wave years.

1) it has not been “short” and they have done it repeatedly to some of the same U.S. citizens 2) yes, you have

This man has shepherded some of the most blatantly white supremacist decisions in the history of the Supreme Court, which is saying a lot. Not interested in his crybaby efforts to clean up his tracks.

I am an attorney. I do understand how the Supreme Court operates and John Roberts is knowingly blowing smoke up this country's rear end and yours.

WAIT WAIT WAIT DOES THIS MEAN ✨HE PRETENDED TO BE HIS MOM✨ TO GET OUT OF FIGHTING ZUCK?!

Trump promised his ballroom would be paid for by private donations. Now Trump wants us to pay for his fantasy ballroom.

MY HANDY CALIFORNIA VOTER GUIDE: Wait until after the final gubernatorial debate on May 5 to vote and coalesce behind the Democrat who is leading by then. (Hopefully Xavier Becerra.) If you live in Los Angeles, don’t vote for the knucklehead named Spencer Pratt. You’re welcome! ☀️

Like, the takeaway here is, it's fake, gang. It's all fake. Hungary funneling cash to US conservatives. Tucker Carlson having fewer than 8,000 subscribers. Conservative streamers taking Putin money. Now Ben losing whatever teat he was suckling at. None of this is popular. It's just fucking LOUD.

Trump repeatedly bragging about being asked to take the dementia screener is like a work colleague bragging about having to take daily court-ordered drug tests.

This from @jamellebouie.net is fantastic. Expand SCOTUS, yes, but also strip it of the powers it has accrued to itself. Make it serve the people and the republic as was intended. Also, let me add: the Roberts Court delenda est youtu.be/SRzS61buXkQ?...

The guy whose undergrad professor at Penn remembered him as the dumbest student he ever had, thinks that a Columbia and Harvard Law grad could not match his skills in Identifying Animals 101

9. We would of course still need a supreme appellate court and the legislation we've introduced would put that under the responsibility of randomly selected panels of senior court judges, further depoliticizing outcomes. casten.house.gov/imo/media/do...

Trump is paying off big corporations, with taxpayer money, to stop inexpensive clean energy, forcing the grid to buy more expensive polluting energy from Trump’s corrupt fossil fuel donors. It’s a racket, raising costs on purpose, to enrich political donors.

Nothing sends the oligarchs into a frenzy faster than even the suggestion that they pay their fair share in taxes. Imagine how they'd lose their minds if they had to pay the same tax rate as teachers, nurses, and janitors. They'd act like it was the end of the civilized world.

Trump’s ballroom can only accommodate 1000 people, and the WHCD is 2000-2500 people. Can someone explain how his ballroom “solves” the problem from this past weekend?

Nine out of 12 Trump voters told a New York Times focus group that they wish they had not voted for the president.

I don't think the Justices understand the extent to which they are playing with fire. The more they do this, the more District Courts will engage in open disrespect of the Supreme Court, because what other response is there to open disrespect directed at them? That's bad for the Judiciary, period.

All of this because Brin doesn't want his net worth to plunge from $273 billion all the way down to $260 billion. Google search sucks now, incidentally, ever since it rolled out the shitty AI feature. It does everything except, you know, search.
