Trump has learned from Russian mistakes This will just be a two week operation. Gotta give it some time /s

Taught the teen how to shoot today. (Liberals own and shoot guns too) Pretty proud of this showing for a first time shooter (The range only had silhouette targets otherwise I would have had standard targets)

I might get hate for it, but since I'm in HPC (supercomputers) working with the back end of AI is part and parcel for my job. Just look at the insane power and cooling on a top end GPU server for AI. It's disgusting. We really need to do better with regulating AI

Five years ago I was in DC for the fourth. It was an amazing experience. Today I dont feel like celebrating. I love my country, I hate what it has become. I wish we could live up to our greatest ideal

Scottish world cup fans are literally drinking all the beer in Boston. A large percentage of the bars in and around Boston are running out of beer. That made me smile this morning.😆 Boston underestimated the Scots.

Applaud people when they're making big advancements, but let's also stay grounded with what is actually possible. Don't buy into the hype out of a desire for good 7/fin

As liberals with an eye on the future of green energy it's good to keep an eye on progress. We also have to be vigilant. Our desire for this positive improvement makes a fertile environment for the snake oil salesmen. 6/n

China & BYD gloss over the problem that their short charge time is done essentially in a lab environment. While they have demonstrated their capabilities outside as well, it takes specific expensive infrastructure to support a 1MW charge rate 5/n www.techedubyte.com/byd-easy-1mw...

The BYD vehicles in particular are something I see come up a lot on bsky, and my criticisms often get angry reactions. The reality is that electrical limitations are very close to the laws of thermodynamics in their immutability. 4/n www.calcflux.com/en/blog/ohms...

This isn't to say that I don't support green energy. I absolutely believe solar and wind in a less centralized distribution is the way of the future. I also absolutely agree that China is eating our lunch here, particularly with the current US administration 2/n www.npr.org/2025/11/18/n...
