This is the fundamental flaw in centrist Democratic strategy and we must kill it with fire. Dems chase public opinion, GOP shapes it. Whoever boldly, unapologetically shapes public opinion wins.

If the goal is traffic safety, this runs counter to what research by NHTSA and OJP has readily demonstrated: high visibility patrols deter unsafe driving. This is silly cosplaying, cops need to be in uniform and in marked cars. www.ojp.gov/library/publ...

There are two problem-solving approaches: 1) identify a problem that you want to solve, then find a method that will solve it or 2) pick a method you want to use, and go hunting for problems. The second way is the stupid way, so it shouldn't surprise anyone that it's the default method in tech.

Every single Democrat in Congress should be demanding the resignation of Waltz and Hegseth. Every single one. This is a massive scandal. There should be a serious price to pay. AND THERE IS ZERO DOWNSIDE FOR EVEN THE MOST SCAREDY-CAT CONGRESSPERSON.

I am begging @doh.wa.gov and the Dept. of Health from other states to band together and take over this important task. Kennedy will forbid any kind of federal action, but can't states work directly with vaccine manufacturers to produce next year's flu vaccines for their states' residents?

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

Gotta love the evergeen "it needs to all be in a centralized db so I can query over all records" and as soon as you try to, it falls over.

There's a reason they call it "deliberation". Repost if you look it up and find out. Like if you don't but have a good guess.

For my entire lifetime the GOP has tanked the economy; Dems have repaired it, and the Business Class has gone for the GOP; and the places which OUGHT to have institutional memory refuse to remind folks of how consistent the pattern is; and how much worse the swings have been getting.

This whole thread. And: Tech WORKERS are nerdy, which just leans toward ideological adventurousness — including socialism, honest libertarianism, naïve glibertarianism, et cetera. It is tech OWNERS who have taken a sharp right turn.

So here's what's cool about my job: Yesterday morning I said, "We really ought to have TWIN PEAKS available." So then a bunch of people scrambled, worked really hard, and now you can watch every episode of David Lynch & Mark Frost's original series for free on Pluto TV: pluto.tv/us/on-demand...
