'Their story is our story': Pigeons and humans, 3,500 years together. Research reveals the humble birds were first domesticated 3,500 years ago, meaning they have been enmeshed in our lives for nearly a millennium longer than previously thought u.afp.com/SRzM

Also since lots of discusions of Heated Rilvary tonight, I want to share this that I came across. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJOS... As someone who was a teenager during these years ... as much as I love the actual soundtrack, this one fits the time better.

At the current rate by the time, my thesis is turned in. I'm going to be inventing like 5 to 10 things a day.

On one had, this clearly runs into federal supremacy problems (until probably that Minnesota case goes through), and would just require litigation to be ruled unconstitutional, but also... that would eat up DoJ resources.

I think about this whenever I see a photo or still from the show.

Journos are worse about this than most but leftists will really be like “you believe in using market forces to drive automation? that pales in effectiveness to my strategy, fully automated luxury communism” and then not automate and produce luxuries but instead fetishize manual labor

I am not trusting something called leading report, but burning a covert op like this would be hillarious. Also are 60 year olds receptive to CIA SAC/POG inducements?

Also, if it could work out that PADD 5 runs out the week after I hopefully go to give a job interview/ talk on hydrocarbon fuel system resiliency that would be personally useful.

This does breed a kind of unintended, anti-scientific attitude, where the rate of progress is intuitively judged according to the information environment someone has felt most comfortable inhabiting over this period. Ideas, right or wrong, about progress get baked in over time.

Time for you to get up to speed on the PADD.

That is bad.

He is correct that news papers should be solvent. If people are not buying your news, you don't serve a function. Now perhaps I would not cut every single thing that makes people want to buy your news.

we are locked in a battle between "I can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent" and "we can stay solvent longer than you can stay irrational"

All or nothing. Tune in to watch the must-win Game 4 of the 2026 PWHL Walter Cup Finals presented by Scotiabank! 📺 US: ION 📺 CA: TSN, RDS 📺 Outside of Canada: thepwhl.com + PWHL Youtube Channel ➡️ bit.ly/42AAmaW

I think it's even crazier, he was willing to work directly with the Israelis to do it! Apparently the only thing the man cared about was power. I think this is going to need to spawn at least five books re-looking at if any ideology of his is real, or all just power seeking.

There’s an energy crisis and the largest war in Europe since WW2, Britain’s superpower ally is ruled by an insane pedophile, and the only thing propping up the world economy is the belief AI will take all the jobs, which will cause a crisis when proven or disproven. But Britain must have priorities.

Psyops is so much cooler in theory, and in the minds of many of it's practitioners, then reality. It has to have the largest delta between concept of the field and the reality of it, of frankly anything.

What’s funny is that when this happened in Bush 2, W understood that Rs had to ditch him to save themselves and keep the future of the party viable. Grandpa will take the party with him to the grave, and then we get some really weird politics that no one has seen before

Honestly no some people just need to be straight up embarrassed on main

I'll return to this account's original purpose to both praise and dispute this piece. Why surface from periscope depth on this topic? As one of, if not the, only active posters here who has actually gloved up and done work in the plutonium facility, I have a unique perspective to offer. ☢️🧵

this is what Claude is most useful for, honestly

Again: this is the person the regime wantonly tortured, beat, and murdered protestors for during the failed Green Revolution of 2009, when it fixed the election in his favor.

Increasingly of the belief that we should have normal policy planning and legislation for tech-induced mass unemployment, even if we currently have no evidence that it is happening. It should not have a stake in some specific claim about technical progress.

We need to accept LLM capabilities so that we can face the reality of what's coming in the labor market and I readily acknowledge that employers may use AI as a cover for lay-offs even when it's not capable enough which is why we need to accept LLM capabilities so that we can face the reality of -

We live in an age of extreme cynicism, bordering on political nihilism. The Times’ Ahmadinejad reporting will reinforce the idea that many of the most powerful actors in the world have no fixed values, and believe not a word they say.

I need everyone to get mentally ready for us to curb stomp the Cuban military. They are not an effective fighting force, and they pose limited threat to US forces. We have a massive concentration of forces because it is right next to the US home land.

Technically this is to manage grade compression not inflation.

While were on the topic of engineering philosophy, I think I should not since we face a massive, like 70% shortfall we need in new engineers were stuck with AI. We need everyone to either start going to school, or we need to make everyone available *a lot* more productive.

I think philosophy of engineering/ science and philosophy of technology is important, but like man did I wish the public discourse in it demand anywhere near the same level of rigor as theology discourse. Part of this problem is, if your in the applied fields, you already engage in this discourse

(I would note some of the lowest trust people out there are on bluesky, and they have Opinions on democratic politics.)

I dug into it, and there is approximately zero people in Cuba under the age of 58. Most of those missing folks having fled over the past 7 years.

BREAKING Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te says "foreign forces" cannot decide the democratic island's future. Lai's remarks came days after US President Donald Trump suggested arms sales to Taiwan could be used as a bargaining chip with China

Ah yes, a solid 30% of the sea lift capacity for invading Cuba. Also side note, would be interesting to look at renting a cruise ship for transporting the Army for it. Like it's not like the USN could not suppress the threat to it for long enough to get close by, and the life boats are there.

Why does a governor have a substack? That's just inefficient regime management. You want to be creating a media market, and then driving people into it, and then holding them there. Like as much of a problem I have with Liberal Currents, this would have been 10,000x better there.

I think you should watch one episode of heated rivalry, and then one episode of the sandbaggers to learn the most important lesson in life… be gay and don’t do crime.

"Nuanced" as in representing a variety of ways to encourage both structural and direct homophobia.

(I think more elections are a good thing and it is frankly a skill issue) {This would also be solved with my proposed plan for only local media markets, with vastly limited national syndication}

This is a plan that of the many many times it has been attempted has never worked.

“I’ll excuse [crimes] but I draw the line at an anxiety disorder that causes you to think about everything bad you’ve ever done in your life under interrogation with heart rate, breathing, movement, and sweat monitoring while you’re bound to a chain” — the CIA

there was that regime CPA thread about The Deal texas had with the PMC and how it fell apart after trump

As noted by other commenters, successive AU governments made this bed for themselves over the course of nearly two decades. Anyone getting irritated about the LOTE cost needs to propose a feasible alternative. The only quick measure is to retire the submarine force. www.theage.com.au/politics/fed...

Where tf did the Kurds fit into this?

with LLMs making lots of boutique software products possible, soon everyone will get to enjoy the user experience of using niche academic software.

And it was not Khatami? A man with notional legitimacy with anti-regime groups for his support of the green movement?

I'm sorry, but like you're the managing director of a famous publication you don't get to stunt on people. It just doesn't work. You're the same social class.

It sucks that all I’ve learned about this interview with a possibly relevant political figure was that the leadership at Wired is insecure.
