Okay here’s a fresh AI angle: current CS student just wants to learn to code

I know it’s competing with an illegal war and 10,000 other major scandals but I feel like people should be making a bigger deal out of the DefSec systematically trying to resegregate the military

Let’s lower the rent! As mayor, I will triple housing production by cutting red tape, lowering costs, and eliminating pointless bureaucracy.

learning that astronauts have to use microsoft outlook in space is unspeakably depressing. we have set microsoft outlook free from the bounds of earth. polluting the stars with that janky piece of shit

still pissed at a certain pundit who was incredulous when i said that these people are segregationists

this is the chaplain btw. wonder why he was fired.

NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has taken steps to block or delay promotions for more than a dozen Black and female senior officers across all four branches of the military, according to nine U.S. officials familiar with the process.

View from Artemis II today. Crescent Earth. A view humans haven't captured since 1972.

the angriest block so far

half of anthropic's research program amounts to saying things like "the model obviously ACTS like it has feelings" in a very detailed way that elevates this from a low status to high status claim

i ordinarily don’t approve of sephiroth posting from senators but i have every confidence that wyden intends every word

Aim to write a takedown so convincing that people accuse the original paper of being written by malevolent actors you're in kahoots with so that you could dunk on it

People actually think the assassination attempts were fake?

Little known fact: Donald Trump is America's first degrowth president

1. find a natural wormhole to a bountiful cluster in another galaxy 2. earth and its milky way colonies thrive 3. the natural wormhole collapses wait ive played this one before

Thanks to Rogé Karma at @theatlantic.com for chatting with me about the unclear impact of AI on the bad/worsening labor market for young people. I don't discount the possibility of a partial impact, but the main cause is the boring old business cycle. www.theatlantic.com/economy/2026...

World's First Enterprise Solution With Zero Nines Uptime

I think the framing of “unintended consequences” is partially flawed. You tax stuff you want to see less of. For example, congestion pricing in NYC is to reduce driving. If you tax real estate transactions, you’ll have less development. I think ULA proponents wanted less market rate housing

If I didn't make these myself I wouldn't believe them.

If "Moon Colonization" causes your "Colonization is bad" neuron to fire you are more of a stochastic parrot than GPT2.

BUT: software development postings are rising rapidly (15% Y/Y), and are now at their highest level since the beginning of 2024. We're still 28% below pre-COVID levels.

You can just block anyone who didn't vote for Harris and move on with your life. What is it you think you gain from listening to stupid people?

Not trying to be mean but lol 2000s transplants whining about 2010 transplants and then does the most transplant thing ever of living in Oakland and driving to San Francisco. I dont know if you've heard of it but we have a little something called BART.

Lmao. Hegseth, Rubio, Vought and Miller are really responsible for the worst, most popularity-killing choices of the administration (aside from the ones Trump himself chose, ie the tariffs). But predictably the first two high profile firings are two women.

i think @quantian.bsky.social has the best version of this

Sorry but you are way too humanities brained if you think space colonization is problematic because earth colonization was often accompanied by bad stuff. There are no people on the moon. The bad things involving colonization were the things they did to people living there. There are no people there

Tapping the sign

NASA is using Outlook on Orion???

You know, Tom Cotton probably should’ve watched what happened next in “The Dark Knight” before tweeting this.

Think about this one like once every 45 minutes

incredible comment on one of my youtube videos

here it is. one single picture that perfectly captures why we have a housing crisis. it’s not blackrock. it’s not the developers. it’s the boomers who will yell at any politician who wants to build more housing

all timer banger

low-wage workers got a 15% raise, middle to upper-middle class got a 5% raise.

The two best housing tweets were Affordable Burger King and White Ways Of Knowing And Being.

If Biden delivered such a rambling, slurring performance, people would solemnly demand that he resign and never run for office again

lmao

most helpful summary www.nytimes.com/live/2026/04...

Trump gave a speech arguing for war in Iran 33 days into the war in Iran because his polls are at the lowest point of his presidency and 70% of voters oppose a ground invasion

The Biden debate performance that ended his presidency was one-tenth as addled as what I'm watching right now.

He sounds 106 years old.

oil futures traders listening to this speech now placing a loaded gun directly into their mouth hearing Trump saying “we don’t need the Strait of Hormuz”

That whooshing sound is prisoners escaping

some lefties turn into weird austerity hawks when it comes to space and like do you actually think it would be invested in social services? come on now
