Are Dem leaders THAT clueless? We're in the middle of a FASCIST takeover and you want to focus on the ECONOMY??

As much as I hate to say it, the Disney I loved cherished is now dead. Looking at their upcoming movie slate it’s just remake after remake after sequel. They don’t know how to make movies anymore and they’re just milking IPs now. What happens when people are tired of IPs? Look at Marvel.

LLMs aren’t a fad, but it’s also not going to reach doomsday level intelligence any time soon. Just like old school photographers when photoshop was first released, you’ll just learn out to adapt and redefine what it means to be professional. Certain skills will die out and new ones will emerge.

With all the hype around AI, one thing to consider is tools like Git or React would never come out of a vibe coding session

I loved Thunderbolts. I love how it was a movie about mental health that just so happened to have super heroes.

We’re next

Please repeat over and over: “Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.” —Gov. JB Pritzker

It’s interesting how some experts are saying tariffs are non-inflationary, but consumer behavior right now is very inflationary

If the government is going to require passports and birth certificates to vote, we should require those for gun purchases too, right?

TFW you forget to multiply your shader results by pi, but that's ok, since you forgot to divide by pi somewhere else.

“I love Trump’s policies, but I don’t like their consequences” - Every Republican

The crazy shit has become so normalized now that unless the world is burning, nothing gets announced

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

We live in an age of anti-intellectualism

We need more of this energy

SWE-Bench tainted by answer leakage; real pass rates significantly lower https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.06992 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43130732

The US Internal Revenue Service is expected to fire about 6,700 employees, a person familiar with the matter said, eliminating roughly 7% of the tax-collecting agency's workforce in the midst of the critical tax-filing season reut.rs/4i7Rqe1

How many days are we at now?

Governments and economists need to wake up and realize that GDP is a horrible metric to determine the health of an economy

I don’t see how we won’t have a recession given all the firings that’s been happening

The rate at which planes are crashing while Trump is President is getting scary, and meanwhile he's played golf in Florida every one of the last 3 days. What is happening here?

This is more terrifying than Trump getting elected

I will drop my bid to buy Twitter if Elon stops acting like an idiot

If we’re renaming bodies of water based on petty grievances, I propose that this be renamed the Kendrick Lamar passage.

Concerning 🧐

I think what I find interesting is that I agree with some of Musk’s talking points, I just disagree who the culprit is.

Inflation is so high at this point these rounding errors aren’t worth it anymore

“Rather than fascism or single-party dictatorship, the United States is sliding toward a more 21st-century model of autocracy: competitive authoritarianism,” Steven Levitsky writes:

This energy.

The more these tech companies show their true colors, the more attractive a crypto-free decentralized web appears

This is starting to get exhausting

Selective outrage of the right.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk have arrogated congressional power to themselves, Jonathan Chait writes: “The true urgent cause is to return that power to the legislature before the damage becomes irreversible.”

There is still beauty in this world

President Donald Trump issued an executive order late last week canceling recently negotiated federal union contracts in an effort to target federal workers who had inked deals allowing telework. This followed previous efforts targeting telework more broadly. Here’s what happened and what it means.

Like with every single negotiation he does, Donold is going to lose and then declare victory and then his fans will all call him a genius even though he’s a lying moron.

The same people complaining about tariffs are the same ones who said prices wouldn’t go up

The first 90% of the job takes 90% of the time. The last 10% of the job takes the other 90% of the time.
