“In one video… a voice claiming to be Zuckerberg says that “it’s normal to feel uncomfortable or even violated as we forcefully insert AI into every facet of your conscious experience. And I just want to assure you, you don’t need to worry because there’s absolutely nothing you can do to stop it.””

From 2000 until 2010 the maximum number of measles cases in the US in one year was 140. There were only two years above 100 cases that decade. Since 2011, 10 of 15 years have over 100 cases. Even without TX, NM, OK we already have 112 this year. 178 w/out TX. We beat measles and let it come back.

The US v China trade maps are making the rounds (again). They do show a massive shift, of course, but they also miss that there are plenty of countries for whom neither the US nor China are the biggest trading partners.

Once again the ONLY advice my US WWII Merchant Marine grandfather ever gave me: don't go to sea with ppl that don't belong there. It's not an fing playground. Certainly this news just proves the point.

The Supreme Court is no longer a brake on authoritarianism — it’s becoming an accomplice. Just like the courts in 1930s Germany, they’re paving the way for the destruction of democracy, one cynical ruling at a time. It’s both disgraceful and terrifying. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Why do we like vaccines and water systems so much? It used to be 50/50 whether your kid lived to be an adult. With 4 kids, 94% chance they wouldn't all make it. Fun times. Maybe let's not do that again. We don't have magic cures for diseases like measles. We have vaccines.
