“Words like patriotism, freedom, and a favorite of the far right, “anti-American,” are frequently deployed in ways that mean their opposite. (The phrase “un-American” was a key buzzword of McCarthyism, a movement that just like Trumpism targeted intellectuals and academics…)” Worth reading. 🤓✨

Avian flu isn’t a threat to the general public — yet! Right now, it’s a huge threat to farm workers. They are a firewall protecting the rest of the country. If we don’t protect farm workers, we can’t protect the public.

Trump Administration Squashes New York City Congestion Pricing - The Wall Street Journal I’ll say it: this is one policy that as a NJ resident that commutes to NYC fairly regularly, I’m ok with. That said, the Mayor Adams fiasco and trampling on the Constitution, DEI, etc. “trumps” any goodwill.

It’s boggling that in the nearly nine months since Emilia Pérez premiered at Cannes and made an overnight star of Gascón, no one at Netflix thought to look into her quite active social media presence. That’s an unforced error of the kind we rarely see in the awards race.

On January 22 Trump gutted a key aviation safety committee. Today we saw one of the most shocking aviation disasters to ever occur in the airspace of our nation’s capital (second, obviously, to the Pentagon attack on 9/11). There will be no committee in place to determine how to avoid the next one.

The “overnight success” of #DeepSeekLLM was two years in the making, and as with everything, all about timing. DeepSeek is everything that OpenAI purported to be when they first launched, which includes ring free to use and releasing it as “open source”, so developers can use, adapt and modify it.
