One neat thing about coming back to chess, after spending ~20 years being more invested in Go, is I think of things in terms of Go concepts like "aji", "shape", "moyo", "atari".

If your business can't survive not telling people to kill themselves, your business doesn't deserve to survive.

OpenAI shouldn’t have a business, that’s correct

Your accounts on social media can be banned if someone misinterprets a photo as a death threat, but the billion dollar plagiarism machine is allowed to tell you to kill yourself in no uncertain terms.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.

This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

I don’t really want to hear defeatism from people who don’t live in the U.S. or who have already left.

We’ve got fighting to do and a democracy to save.

BLUESKY ELDER ELECTED NYC MAYOR

Democrats just ran the table, winning the marquee races -- NJ and VA sweeps, NYC mayor, CA prop, PA Supreme Court -- and lower-profile races in red and purple states across the nation.

If the media you're reading or watching paints this as anything but a massive win, stop reading or watching them.

Want to be in politics in the future? Take an acting class. Improv skills will help you a lot. You will need to be on camera a lot more than any previous generation of politician and performing on camera is (mostly) a learned skill that you can get better at with deliberate practice.

One of my machine-gunners spoke Cambodian. One of my rifleman spoke Laotian and another spoke Cajun almost exclusively. No Marine I know gave AF because they all swore an Oath to our Nation that including "Up to and including my life." F*ck JD Vance and his prissy Yale Imperialistic view of America.

We are not Constitutionally BARRED from an expectation of privacy in public.

The Constitution, as courts have chosen to interpret it, simply does not ESTABLISH such an expectation.

There’s no reason we can’t create it via statute.
