"I'd like you to set the severance device in my brain fully on 'innie' mode for the next four years. I'm willing to work nonstop if it allows me to avoid the panic attacks I get from hearing the news about teenage social media influencers becoming senior government advisors."

That’s wild, because Stanford’s research shows that people don’t achieve any more in 70 hours than they do in 50. More hours doesn’t actually mean more work, it just means more hours, I’m writing a whole dang book about it.

Sam Altman says GPT-4.5 has "a magic to it i haven't felt before." I'm reminded of Peter Nagy and Gina Neff's article about "the conjuration of algorithms—a strategically deployed narrative device that uses the principles of magic to manipulate the public perception of technologies."

There's so much bad in this paragraph it's hard to know where to start. FAA is now controlled by Elon Musk. He's awarding himself this contract. That's not what a conflict of interest means. This is simple looting. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Why this matters: 1. While NSA doesn't have to stand down, many service members working at NSA work for their individual services, addressing their intelligence priorities. The national mission broadly benefits from this. These members likely must stand down. 1/ therecord.media/hegseth-orde...

reminder! when elon musk was stumping for trump (and giving his campaign hundreds of millions of dollars) he called himself anti-government, more recently said there should be no regulation by “default” & previously said he thought he’d wind up in prison if trump didn’t win…

Even the people working at DOGE say it is a lawless nightmare for America. In fact, they know it better than anyone. Thanks to these true public servants who won’t stand for such a dangerous betrayal of the American people.

Amazing lack of self-awareness from Clarence Thomas, who takes a dig at Oklahoma's attorney general for appointing a "personal friend and campaign donor" to review Glossip's case. I guess he has realized that friendships and money can influence personal judgment? www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this. The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

Of course they will use AI because it's easy to be a soulless asshole and outsource to a machine; being human requires compassion and giving a fuck about people.

It is nuts to have some random clueless billionaire w/ no official authority send such a demand on a weekend, rather than a manager. Combined with then telling people (on Twitter, not in the email) that they'll be fired for not responding the next work day? No reason to give this any credit at all
