Whistleblowers have long argued that Boeing Dreamliners were made so poorly and with so little quality control that after years of use they would eventually begin cracking up and dropping from the sky. One of them just did.

I hope everyone now realizes how dumb it is to make conclusions about tech by pointing at subsidies. Derisking is a normal part of investment and markets. But I see versions of this line all the time from anti- and pro-renewables people. Take a hard look at your company and find better arguments.

At this point, I think anybody who is anti-Cuomo should be at least thinking about ranking Brad 1. So far in this race, I think it's plausible that Brad has a bit of momentum among the non-Cuomo and Zohran folks and this suggests in the final three they're actually pretty close.

He says while investing in geothermal and nuclear companies who depend on subsidy and making his fortune on fracking which benefited from 20 years of unconventional gas production subsidy & other government investment. Hypocrite. thebreakthrough.org/issues/energ... 🔌💡

“Tesla’s driverless ‘robotaxis’ could launch in Austin as soon as June 22. But a demo in Austin today showed a $TSLA, manually driven to test its Full Self-Driving system, failed to stop for a child-sized dummy at a school bus—and hit it.” @cbsaustin @velez_tx

tests like this are sort of worst case for camera-based systems because those systems are trained on footage of real people and that dummy neither looks nor moves much like an actual person HOWEVER--and this is FUCKING KEY--that's irrelevant if you have REDUNDANT SENSOR SUITES INCLUDING LIDAR

Whether or not Zohran wins, he is setting the bar for how every Dem candidate needs to communicate. Simple, engaging, repetitive, clear-eyed about the stakes and taking the work seriously but not himself seriously. That’s the model for all Dems, ideologically aligned or not.

They are extremely clear about the fact that they consider themselves to be at war with you. They do not equivocate about it. It's their stated policy.

If the feds’ objective is to “liberate” Los Angeles and California from its democratically elected leadership, then this not a peacekeeping mission but a program of invasion.

FYI: Senator Padilla is the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship and Border Safety. "Oversight of the immigration functions of the Department of Homeland Security" is literally the definition of his jurisdiction.

What a brazen lie to tweet right above a video in which one can clearly hear Padilla saying "I'm Senator Alex Padilla."

A US Senator was thrown to the ground and handcuffed by federal agents, and then the DHS Secretary went on to say that they are taking control from the "socialist" local government. That is fascist, there is no other proper word for it than that. No euphemisms are necessary or warranted.

The NYT, WSJ, and WaPo are all headlining that Padilla "forcibly removed." Which conveniently ignores the slammed-to-the-ground part.

We drill into military officers that Members of Congress have Constitutional oversight rights, Members outrank four-stars in protocol, and even Congressional staffers are treated like generals/admirals. To see sworn federal officers manhandle and handcuff a U.S. Senator... I'm still shook up.

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has “oversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”

A classic argument that bond yields and mortgage rates could end up going much higher if Asian defense spending is driven by the world’s Taipei personalities.

I’ve raised this here before —while it’s good for US allies to contribute more to their defense, the sheer scale being demanded could impact long yields (which is one reason we end up with cockamamie suggestions like M-a-L). responsiblestatecraft.org/defense-spen...

One more thing--getting rid of 1703 (the most effective LPO program) while refurbishing 1706 suggests the ENR staff are more interested in keeping existing energy infra alive rather than building anything new. 1706 is the brownfield program, 1703 is the greenfield program!
