Trying to imagine how people would respond if some food corporation invented cheese in the present day. Like cheese didn't exist, and now they're trying to put this new product on the market

I am also concerned about a race to the bottom w.r.t. court packing. But if we do not demonstrate moral courage to fight back against what we know is wrong, the Republicans have *absolutely no incentive* to agree to any bipartisan reforms. They will take their 6-3 court and go home.

And while it is radical, you must understand that the judiciary is the only battleground that matters. Every attempt to fix the institutions of this country legislatively will be dashed by them on spurious grounds. You cannot turn back the tide of fascism without fixing the court, you can only delay

Love that Angela Paxton ad where she says "let's address the elephant in the room" and then doesn't do that at all (the elephant being that Ken Paxton repeatedly cheated on her, a state senator, and she also refused to recuse herself during his impeachment so the rest of TX Senate barred her)

Perhaps when we're young adults, it's easy to discard our family's biases and views as silly. Then, at some point, you start looking for a strong identity. Many look towards ancestry, religion, etc, and it can be especially affirming when someone reifies those old beliefs your family held.

There are many Behind the Bastards episodes that drive this home.

idk, I think clowning on Paul here is motivated reasoning because people don't like AI companies and find AI art cringe. LLMs are really cool architectures and they do actually have deep implications for what human language is actually doing

It's like, ok, someone has just asked me my opinion on something in Spanish. I have understood that. Now to give my opinion... and nothing pops out. I don't (yet) have that "inner voice" in Spanish to guide me like I do in English.

It's actually bizarre that a latent space of language, phrases and words broken down into a series of numbers, ends up replicating cognition so well. It suggests something deeper about language and what "doing language" is.

I'm not gonna say Brent Strom isn't a legend, but this move does give me the sense of being nostalgia. A sort of oldhead personnel hire instead of something more forward-looking #astros

Dear Mexico Take the fucking shot are you kidding me you have every defender beat and you're trying to pass it over
