"No solar farms on prime farmland"? My dude, you are growing fuel corn. A single field of solar replaces several fields of fuel corn which means THERE WILL BE MORE PRIME FARMLAND to use for FOOD.

Text: The Iranian close to the regime said the Revolutionary Guards were behaving more like a militant group in their effort to take on the world's most sophisticated and powerful armies - abandoning their bases and scattering in order to reduce the risk of being hit while launching retaliatory attacks.

So - astonishingly - Iran has been paying attention to history, notably the Millennium Challenge exercise, which was originally an Iran war game, and in which US Marine Col. Paul van Riper, playing the baddies, handed an invading US force its hat with both its ears in it BY DOING THIS.

Chairman Cruz Announces Hearing to Debate the Future of Section 230 WASHINGTON, D.C. –U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Chairman of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, will convene a full committee hearing titled “Liability or Deniability? Platform Power as Section 230 Turns 30” on Wednesday, March 18, 2026, at 10:00 am EST. Thirty years after enactment of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, this hearing will take testimony from legal experts on the role Section 230 has played in the digital era. Witnesses will discuss how Section 230 affects the regulation of online expression and conduct, as well as the constitutional limits on congressional policymaking imposed by the First Amendment. Upon announcing the hearing, Sen. Cruz said: “Big Tech—the most powerful companies on Earth—can exercise monopoly power to make views they dislike disappear and that should scare everyone. When it comes to viewpoint suppression, however, repealing section 230 might increase censorship. I look forward to hearing from our witnesses and discussing possible reforms to section 230 so online platforms are a free and open marketplace for ideas.” Witnesses: Ms. Daphne Keller, Director of Platform Regulation, Program in Law, Science, and Technology, Stanford Law School Ms. Nadine Farid Johnson, Policy Director, Knight First Amendment Institute Mr. Matthew Bergman, Founding Attorney, Social Media Victims Law Cente

Senate Commerce hearing on Section 230. And, uh, this is big. Not giving him any credit, but Ted Cruz was really the first Senator to be vocally anti-230 and calling for repeal a decade ago. And here he is saying "whoa, repeal might be bad." That's big.

if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

CapMetro tap to pay works as advertised. I like this. So much better than fiddling with an app and a QR code, even though the new readers are way less finicky about said QR codes.

Tapping the sign:

This creep's entire line of thought here is eugenicist trash. People are PEOPLE. You don't measure their value by energy consumption. They have inherent value as HUMAN BEINGS. A fucking LLM has no inherent human value. You cannot compare them.

Then that would be perfectly on brand for Dems to campaign on :p

Always has been meme. “Wait, domain knowledge is the most valuable thing a data scientist can have?”

The better LLMs get, the more data scientists are going to find out the truth.
