RFK talks about autistic and Arabic people the exact same way. He assumes they are not capable of ordinary or extraordinary achievements because of who they are. He considers them sub-human because they are not like him. This makes it plain that his is a white supremacist eugenicist project.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

I am old enough to remember when politicians felt the need to hide behind euphemism and obfuscation. As frustrating as these obfuscations were I hope it is becoming clear to all that they were an advance, historically speaking

In the last few weeks i've been bombarded with emails from people who have minor tech support problems. ChatGPT is telling them to email me, writing their emails, and compiling "evidence packets" after convincing them they have stumbled on a major story: www.404media.co/chatgpt-keep...

China’s first AI-generated theatrical feature has flopped, earning just $181,000 in its first weekend. By contrast, the scrappy ‘Niu Lai’ turned its crude animation into a viral attraction, grossing nearly $10 million a couple of months ago. www.cartoonbrew.com/box-office-r...

Google was really trying to hide its water use figures, to the degree that it got the council to try to keep its water use figures secret. The community finally got the actual numbers and found out Google was using 29 percent of the water in the community. www.wired.com/story/what-t...

"In total, since taking office again, Mr. Trump exempted 202 facilities in 39 states & Puerto Rico from clean-air regulations that were going into effect. Some were among the country’s worst industrial polluters, including chemical manufacturers, copper smelters & coal-burning power plants." MAHA!

People have been complaining about the wave of slop on the first couple of days of Steam Next Fest, but you're only getting a glimpse of what's in my inboxes week in week out for the past couple of years now. It's worse than the whole "asset flip" thing by several magnitudes.

AI proponents cling to the idea that the tech is going to enable boundless creativity, but I've seen what it enables; endless spam. It's enabled people without a single ounce of creativity in their bodies to make endless Balatro clones, genuinely no thoughts of their except Balatro but slop.

@bethanymclean.bsky.social, co-author of The Smartest Guys in the Room about Enron, sees that SpaceX has becomes neocloud, and (with an assist from Jim Chanos) digs into the rewards, risks, and Capex math with which the neoclouds must reckon. Highly recommended.
@montanaskeptic.bsky.social is Bethany McLean the journalist who exposed Enron? www.inc.com/bethany-mcle...

This piece is amazing. @business shows why desperate billionaire right wing oligarchs like the Ellisons are buying media networks, politicians, and influencers while sliming public interest lawyers: their business model is breaking the law. www.bloomberg.com/news/article... (gift link)
