Guys the prince of Nigeria has a new exciting data center opportunity but he’s hit a small snag and is willing to sell equity!

“An American Genocide estimates btwn 9,000 and 16,000 Indians, though probably many more, were killed by vigilantes, state militiamen & federal soldiers btwn 1846 and 1873, in an ‘organized destruction’ of the state's largely peaceful indigenous peoples.” www.newsweek.com/2016/08/26/c...

i know no one cares, nothing matters, it’s all blasé to the median voter and pundit, but a sitting AG (even just acting) making these kinds of boldly partisan remarks would have been seen, in the past, as grounds for removal on a bipartisan basis

All I want is a candidate who champions good economic policies without being a racist or misogynist.

What an eventful and exhausting month it's been, huh friends

spooky shit going on. Moon's haunted

Just a friendly reminder that *utilities* are begging the administration to let them stop using coal www.citact.org/news/centerp...

I just had the insane thought of “god I’d kill to be making PowerPoints right now” [instead of all this writing] I’m cooked for the day lol

Ay man they did my dog dirty!!!

California needs ranked choice voting, yesterday.

Re: LA mayor race. We prob won’t know for a week whether it’s Bass v Pratt or Bass v Raman in general. Everybody chill.

saying gayness is unamerican gets a gop staffer in congress reprimanded but saying transness is unamerican gets you a fox news contributor contract. an accurate descriptor of american politics

“Curtis Sliwa sitting shiva for the Times Square Red Lobster” is hysterical on several levels, no one doing it like him

In memory of the wonderful Raúl.

What a loss!!! Heartbreaking!

New Jersey State Police arrested 46 people last night within a half mile of the barricades outside Delaney after kettling them.

I’m sooooo proud of Victor

Patagonia Sued Pattie Gonia. Now Fans Want the Company to Back Down “This is a betrayal of Patagonia’s core mission. If they’re in business to save the home planet, why are they suing a climate activist?” said Pattie Gonia @kqednews.kqed.org @kqedscience.bsky.social www.kqed.org/science/2001...

I fear I have overstayed my welcome…

The full announcement from Banerjee. A terrible loss for NPR and the nation. www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

Congress should make very clear that anyone participating in this has lost the ability to be in a position of public trust.

they think we don't know ball!!!!!

RIP Sonny Rollins, a great jazz talent and the last surviving musician in one of the best photos of men in suits during the 20th century

I am totally over the perennial “is it LOGICAL for Americans feel bad about the economy” argument on here. Because we have clear evidence that they DO feel bad about the economy, whatever we may think about how grounded-in-data that feeling actually is. And I care about what we DO about that.

Lot of good fodder lately for my fall semester AI-policy. "In accordance with the Vatican and UC Berkeley Law, this class will..."

Well said. It's also worth pointing out that even if we do miss the 2c target, hitting 2.1 is still better than 2.3. Climate tipping points are not all or nothing, there are multiple tipping points at different temperatures.

Converting to Catholicism so I can tell my bosses using unregulated AI is against my religion and I will sue them like that cake lady who hated gay people if they make me use it

whew

i think a lot of it is that there was 1) a concerted, nationwide propaganda campaign to make people think the economy of 2021-23 sucked ass 2) it worked and 3) the economy got worse than 21-23 in 2024 and then got worse than that in 2025 and 2026

Does new transmission actually move the needle on clean energy? Here's a month of California data before and after SunZia came online. Wind is up by a third, and gas down by a third. Judge for yourself.

Our goal is to simply survive this administration and all of the damage they are doing to our country, the present and future of science. I publish with "foreign scientists" all the time. This is going to be a problem if I cannot cite those papers in my progress reports.

bruh

I work in the largest academic HVAC research lab in the US. Tons of my prof and grad student colleagues have worked for years to characterize low-GWP refrigerants and adapt equipment to use them. In collaboration with most major manufacturers. That train is moving, fast. Trump lackeys won't stop it.

this shit is so dumb its so dumb and I will forever find it unforgivable and disqualifying for people to have thought this would be a good decision bringing this man back to the crib

say what you will about Harden being a foul merchant but that handle and crossover is still Lethal

(Allegedly) I’d corroborate this

Yup: It's a full-on attack - a series of attacks - on the republic, the rule of law, and the Constitution by someone who acts as if he's a dictator. He has allies; he also has collaborators. He's suffered many defeats along with some victories. But that's what's happening, and what's at stake.

Very good thread, also will say the obvious that even if it were somehow true that the number of goods under discussion was "small" this would not be an argument against implementing a ban on their import. In fact it would remove the argument that it would be difficult.

blah blah violence isnt a good answer whatever i dont care because this kind of shit is why i believe that every girl should be given a knife

This is obvious bait and yet, (and I fuck with Wesley) I think Wes is jealous that he didn’t write that scathing Fallon piece himself. Because SNL doesn’t need to go before Fallon does

Glad this is out. But the fundraising analysis section—which I was interviewed for and provided data and analysis for—only includes fundraising totals, not the efficiency analysis I provided. Could be that they didn’t finish it. But what I found is a big deal. More on this soon.

yes. another crucial element is it's all for something that many people (myself included) don't want. i didn't make a fuss about data centers before ai because they were necessary for, ya know, email, and my blog, and the rest of the internet. but the new swell is for swill, which i can do without

if i am not texting u back it is because overwhelm
