Here's a fun paper confirming that companies laying off workers in favor of AI are indeed giving Ouroboros, destroying the very demand they rely on in order to exist: arxiv.org/pdf/2603.20617

super toxic JD post about why working more hours matters
so fucking gross. i guarantee you nobody is on their deathbed wishing they had done more to maximize shareholder value. touch grass, be weird, tell your friends you love them.
Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting "They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head." An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911
"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries. "We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.
new year, no more amazon. care to join me? i know there's no ethical consumption under capitalism, yadda yadda yadda, but i also love books. if you do too, you can get 20% off of some!

Friendly reminder that Spotify wrapped is cool but supporting musicians instead of ICE is like a billion times cooler ๐

genuinely crazy that this is happening on behalf of charlie kirk of all people
The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirkโs hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with todayโs political mainstream media.
Brazil got it right.
We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.
The US Administration is now deleting its internal communications, in brazen violation of the Federal Records Act, in order to conceal its other illegal acts.
Those entrusted to enforce our Congressโs laws sit, simply watching this happen, flaccid and impotent.
excuse me while i ๐คฎ

A cowardly conservative supreme court shirked their responsibility to rein in gerrymandering years ago. i wrote about it back in 2018, hoping for it to be less relevant nearly a decade later. mattlane.us/stories/mind... #gerrymandering #math
Mannnn f this game
Here's a "geometric" proof that โ2 is irrational:
First check that a quotient of real numbers x/y is rational if and only if an xรy rectangle can be ๐๐๐กโ๐ฆ๐โ๐๐๐๐๐ก๐๐๐๐๐๐ฆ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ก๐๐: made to disappear by chopping off squares that share a side with what remains of the rectangle. 1/3 ๐งฎ
When dropping your kid off at camp costs you $40 because itโs next to a book store and you have a problem.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. Iโm sorry we have to live through this.
interview question that reads "are you excited about working very hard, very long hours/5 days a wk in person in SF?"

how any self respecting person can apply to these kinds of jobs is baffling to me.
This happened to me once, but with a breakup. I absolutely took the win ๐ซฃ
Are people really applying to these kinds of jobs? Late stage capitalism has people out here losing their minds.
Excited for this one!
Seems like this is definitely worth destroying the planet over ๐ซ
There is one place, however, where Musk, with the help of his minions, achieved his goals. He did indeed shred U.S.A.I.D. Though a rump operation is now operating inside the State Department, the administration says that it has terminated more than 80 percent of U.S.A.I.D. grants. Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Muskโs foray into politics accomplished.
Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.
