Peter Thiel has been telling us for over a decade that the reason he invests in AI is because it will allow him to enforce a future on us that we despise and would never accept. Believe him. Musk is the same. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/26/o...

Oh yep I saw this Q&A a couple weeks ago, it's great! It's a perfect showcase of how the US farm sector has lost its grip on reality. He really said "You have to subsidize us because that's how you create a free market." With a straight face & everything.

"Smaller-scale AI arms races like these don't take hold unless users (or workers, or students) have already been pitted against one another by systems they don't respect. In an uncomfortably large portion of modern life - especially online - that's exactly what's happened."

One of the SpaceX fan cams caught a crane collapse at Starbase in Texas. This kind of thing only happens from a completely unacceptable safety culture failure and I'd be shocked if there wasn't a death here

When I call @gluesenkampperez.house.gov's office lately, the staffers are incredibly brusk and will basically immediately hang up as soon as they say "I'll pass this along to the congresswoman" I'm sure things are going great there

On the record, I fully support a draft that's exclusively and specifically targeted at whiny Internet men who claimed they couldn't vote for Harris because "she'll send me off to die in a war."
