@brownsugaaaa3 True. Craig was 24 in '95 building Powerpuff Girls from a CalArts short. Today you'd need 5 years of unpaid internships, a stacked portfolio, and hope the AI department doesn't replace the entry gig. The path got longer while the runway got shorter.

You reduce crime by eliminating poverty. The reason so called nice neighborhoods have lower crime rates is because people’s basic needs are being met. It is not because of police, alarm systems, or neighborhood associations. Poverty creates crime.

Supporting Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and saying America deserved 9/11 will get you... a New York Times style profile, an op-ed, and an Ezra Klein endorsement. This is not sanity. This is suicide.

An hour ago, I posted this satire (a response to someone else's post). I was commended in the replies for its quality. But I didn't write it. ChatGPT wrote it. (Well, at least most of it.) I wanted to see how quickly my followers would be able to detect the AI authorship. But no one did. This actually surprised me. To be honest, I was impressed by what ChatGPT was able to produce. I did do a good deal of editing — mostly changing words and phrases here and there for comic effect — and also deleted quite a few of the sentences it had written. But ChatGPT was responsible for at least 80% of the post. The one thing that I tried to correct for most in my editing was a tendency for the AI to "try to hard." A little more restraint would have been nice. But still, overall, I was impressed.

He could have started with an undergraduate degree at Yale University or Princeton University, but instead attended a “selective but underrated” liberal arts college in Vermont whose economics department consisted mainly of one adjunct professor who had once owned a chain of candle shops. He graduated magna cum laude after writing a senior thesis titled Disruption and the Human Capital Stack without ever defining either term. By twenty-three he had secured an analyst position at Charles Schwab in a back-office operational resilience subgroup temporarily tasked with color-coding PowerPoint templates after a branding refresh. He spent two formative years learning the rhythms of Outlook calendar invites and the exact emotional cadence of “Just circling back on this.” He began saying things like “at the end of the day, capital finds yield.” Nobody knew what he actually did. Rejected by Harvard Business School and waitlisted indefinitely by Fordham's Gabelli School of Business, he enrolled instead in an aggressively online MBA program whose advertisements featured drone footage of Dubai and the phrase “Become Limitless™.” Leaving Schwab under ambiguous circumstances, he made the calculated jump to a boutique advisory firm specializing simultaneously in distressed credit, blockchain logistics, SPACs, wellness hospitality, and “AI-enabled sovereign optimization.” At first, fortune seemed to favor him. He closed an acquisition involving a telemedicine company for pets. Then the cycle turned. The SPAC market imploded three days after he assured everyone at dinner it was “still early.” His boutique bank’s founder disappeared during a "regathering" retreat in Grand Rapids, later resurfacing as a podcast guest warning about “fiat consciousness.” A leveraged acquisition of an oat-milk derivatives platform collapsed after auditors discovered most of the company’s revenue came from one cafe in Hoboken. He pivoted hard into NFTs. By thirty-four he spent his days posting market commentary on X and his nights attending launch parties for startups with names like Klypset and Ruminex. The penthouse never materialized. Neither did the sweeping Central Park views. An attempt to join the Yale Club stalled after he listed “Thought Leader” as his profession. He did, however, once gain temporary access to a Soho House rooftop through a promotional referral code. Eventually he launched his own fund. The fund's investors most prominently included an aunt who believed she was buying municipal bonds. The strategy was described as “post-traditional extraction through integrative velocity.” Within eleven months, the fund had lost 94% of its value, primarily due to concentrated exposure to an app that delivered smoothies by drone. At forty-two he lived in a furnished rental near the airport in Austin and recorded a podcast called Capital Unfiltered, listened to mostly by bots and one extremely loyal fan in Scottsdale. He used phrases like “restriction play” while unsuccessfully disputing Door Dash charges. Sometimes late at night he would open Zillow listings for $25,000,000 penthouses overlooking Central Park and stare quietly at the photos, zooming in on the marble countertops with the intensity of a medieval monk studying sacred texts. But he would not live there.

@aaronburnett He is usually like "ha! He missed the early prediction! See? He's a failure!" Then goes and ignores the delayed achievements. It was fun hearing him cope on his stream when the booster catch happened. You could feel him dying inside.^^

How does SpaceX expect to hit rapid reusability if they have to repaint the launch mount after every launch? I’m joking. But does feel like a thunderfoot style criticism

So, I’m hearing that “Mandalorian & Grogu” is bad, but is it “randomly fall into a desert sinkhole and discover a dagger that happens to locate another plot device if you’re standing in the perfect spot/distance away from wreckage on another planet” bad?

@Mbakaza4L the most fascinating PR twist is the history of geopolitics, hamas convincing the world the other guys are genocidal, when in reality hamas is genocidal not only to jews but their own people.

Our new pied-à-terre tax will have the ultra-wealthy elite — those who own $5 million apartments in New York City but don’t actually live here — pay their fair share.

@JMWave420 @MakingSenseHQ its all occupied land but easy thought experiment, if the arabs fighting the jews laid down their arms there would be peace, if the jews fighting the arabs laid down their arms, there would be genocide.

@tufpraise its more that its usually asymmetrical. people always look at me uncomfortably when I talk about black supremacists, which absolutely exist, being given a pass for indulging in their open racism toward whites because.. reasons.

@Alonso_GD this is of course utter horseshit. if I have a black boss, which I do, I can experience racism. but the amount of cultural racism, specifically what seems to he okay to say openly, skews much more in favor of anti-white bigotry. its a massive asymmetry.

There's stupid shit going around saying I Love Boosters intends2 "trick Black folks in2 boosting." Boosting isnt something that brings the change we need- I have bigger goals. But ALSO- the idea that crime is due to culture, as opposed to economic necessity, is a rightwing idea

@steady_drumbeat @daveweigel Yeah it’s definitely not engagement bait that makes them money through ragebaited interactions. Every time somebody like you QTs it’s a little ka-ching. Nobody believes anything anymore. It’s just a country of soulless grifters. Hope that’s clear.

Ten years ago, it would have been inconceivable to me for the release of a new Star Wars feature film to be this little of a big deal. The Last Jedi / Rise of Skywalker fiasco destroyed a staggering amount of cultural and economic value.
