I think people are allowed to draw conclusions about the American people based on their decision to put this man in office bsky.app/profile/pear...

Even if you do pay attention, the window between things starting to go wrong and crashing seems quite short here...

Huh :)

For a moment I was hoping there would be new information about the attacker, but no such luck...

A war foretold: how the CIA and MI6 got hold of Putin’s Ukraine plans and why nobody believed them Drawing on more than 100 interviews with senior intelligence officials and other insiders in multiple countries, this exclusive account details how the US and Britain uncovered Vladimir Putin’s plans ...

Hard to overstate the excellence of this long-read from @shaunwalker7.bsky.social on the Western and Ukrainian intelligence run-up to Russia's full-scale invasion: the Iraq War's legacy, Zelensky v Zaluzhny, the geopolitical forces that shaped what followed. Awesome work, wonderful writing.

Why are you amplifying them? You're giving them more clout by quoting them, given you have way more followers than them.

It also makes it very noisy to follow you...

And statutory Bivens. Both to deter the behavior itself and to have standing to challenge unconstitutional behavior that's not that likely to happen to the same person again (which apparently is a problem with ICE entering houses without a warrant).

"Agent" starts to draw his weapon.

Same "agent" shoots, recoil is visible, but weapon is not.

Different "agent" shoots.

Pretty sure it's at least two shooters.

First guy draws his weapon (moves out of frame unfortunately). Then shoots, the recoil is visible, but the weapon is not. Different agent shoots ~5 seconds later, at least twice. The weapon and the recoil are visible.

Only had a few acquaintances that work(ed) at Palantir. I think all had an immigrant background and did it purely for the money and career advancement. Think all left well before now.

Because you already have a cool last name. Can't be that cool.

It's probably from all the chest thumping afterwards :(

Boy, did it confuse me at the time I wanted to move to the US that non-immigrant visas include visas that allow living and working in the US...

It's also possible that they actually care about the investigation to some degree, but are just not able to understand that pushing someone with some integrity too far will lead to that person resigning in protest. They seem to have some genuinely hard time understanding people with principles.

How on earth is this an exclusive? It's been the friggin argument calendar of the supreme court since 11/12/2025 and has been granted certiorari 07/03/2025...

Didn't we learn in some deposition that he actually doesn't control his account but that somebody else does all the tweeting for him?

I think people (including journalists) are also, not unreasonable given e.g. media matter's experience and twitter's troll armies, afraid of Musk to a degree they aren't afraid of Pepsi's CEO.

How realistic is it for local authorities to get access to evidence via subpoena or such?

And of course Waco.

ISTM that's one thing to argue for an LLM that's asked such questions in a "1:1" context, but a different one for something like grok in a public twitter thread.

I still occasionally see them at dry cleaners and similar places.

I'd guess one goal is to make naturalized citizens afraid of participating in the political process. If, in retaliation for speaking up, you're dragged into court to fight a bogus denaturalization, many, quite reasonably, won't.

I think for 3) the relevant question isn't whether it *can* be helpful. It pretty obviously can. The more relevant aspect is for how many folks it will actually be a net benefit and for how many folks it leads to less training / skill attrition, which in turn makes effective use of AI less likely.

Even if, in the happy case, the power density is "safe", if they can target an entire solar installation on earth, they also can target a much smaller spot. Which, pretty much by definition of needing to deliver enough energy to boost an entire solar install, would be ... intense.

Even if such deployments were realistic, why would we want to do so in space? Just deploy the friggin automation on earth and build the whole stuff much much more cheaply.

This is a phenomenal exercise of a solution in search of a problem.

It's all a plot by big dry clean.

Centering Disturbed Cranks

I'm not sure the issue is lack of AI subtlety here - it seems more a case of leadership requiring crystal-clear adherence to some tenants (i.e. Musk is the greatest human ever). That doesn't leave room for subtle dog-whistling.

Am I confused or does the article actually not substantiate the headline at all?

Doing road trips in the US, after moving here from Europe, really was rather enlightening. Driving for hours, seeing no gas station and just a few other cars (during daytime!) is basically not possible in large parts of Europe.

Please include a frequency limit too. A lot of it just seems to be written because something had to be handed in, rather than something that needed to be said.
