“The price of collaboration in America has already turned out to be extraordinarily high.” Great gift article evergreen piece from 2020 by @anneapplebaum.wsocial.eu The Vichy France analogy hits 🎯
Lindsey Graham was one of the main subjects of a @theatlantic.com cover story I wrote in 2020, on why people collaborate with regimes they know are immoral. Here's a gift link: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

Florida police almost ruined a man's life based off a false facial recognition match. Our client Robert Dillon is one of at least 15 people who have been wrongfully arrested because police relied on this dangerous technology. This cannot continue.

Support investigative journalism not owned by US tech billionaires. ProPublica also gets contributions that have been harvested back from my #resistandunsubscribe savings The days of 60 Minutes interviews, Woodward + Bernstein investigations are gone. Follow the money.
You have agency in companies that your consumer spending supports. Take an inventory and start making changes
Then you can take some of your discretionary spend savings from #resistandunsubscribe and support local journalism in your community, strong investigative journalism, like www.propublica.org and www.npr.org that still hold the powerful to account Fight for a healthy fourth estate again 🇺🇸

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."
Powell responds ON VIDEO with basically a polite version of Phil Hartman’s Frank Sinatra saying “I got chunks of guys like you in my stool!” www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/s...

Everybody should watch this and see this woman, who has a baby in her arms and is thrust into basically a standoff, develop courage in real time.

Lovely to listen to this most beautiful of Christmas songs and then read its history—a Ukrainian import to the US that was originally about a swallow flying in to proclaim a bountiful year for a family and their sheep farm en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shchedr...
The Embassy staff of Germany, France and the United Kingdom sing Schedryk in the Kyiv underground. Wonderful!
Freedom of the press is having its Streisand moment, with millions more viewers of all ages watching it online than would have watched it on broadcast TV

At this point it's a cliche to point out the parallels between the AI bubble and the dotcom bubble but it's fascinating to see AI equivalent of companies buying banner ads from each other. Here it's Nvidia investing $100B in OpenAI which OpenAI will then use to rent datacenter capacity from Nvidia.
