I gore oxen and sacred political cows. If you have one...suck it up or don't bother following.
BREAKING: The Trump Administration and the US Treasury Department are designing a $250 bill featuring President Trump, per the Washington Post. If this is launched, President Trump would be the first living person to appear on a US currency since 1866.
AI companies really need to come up with a better pitch to the public than “You’re all gonna lose your jobs and end up paying way more for electricity”.
@iowahawkblog Fort Worth is Dallas dummy
What's the largest city without a big four sports team?
🚨🚨🚨Rep. Anna Paulina Luna on UFO’s and aliens: “I wouldn’t call them aliens, you will find out soon” “I don’t call them aliens.I use the term inter-dimensional beings. I don’t know what these things are that they’re using.” “I have seen evidence in a SCIF that leads me to believe there are things we cannot explain. I have observed things that are of nonhuman origin & creation. That’s my opinion.”
Most people I know in AI think the median person is screwed, and they have no idea what to do about it. I spent the last 3 months talking to dozens of researchers, economists, and policy experts about AI's impact on work; including reps from every frontier lab and several Congressional offices. Unfortunately, I was not reassured. The AI industry is raising the alarm, but can't change course. These companies' core business model relies on the disruption they are warning about: their faith in full automation only makes them go faster. Policymakers are waking up, but still paralyzed by data and debates. Econ wonks disagree on plenty, but even the limited scenario looks like a "painful transition" that will disempower millions of workers. But an "underclass" is not inevitable, but rather a societal choice — and one we can and should stop. Instead of waiting for impact, we should start planning now to support workers through AI disruption. Whether policymakers can assuage concerns about economic security may determine if we get to reap AI's gains at all. New from me for @NYTOpinion. I put a ton into researching what I think may be the biggest topic of the year, so hope you read it (gift link here!) nytimes.com/2026/04/30/opi…
Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries just called the Supreme Court "illegitimate." That follows Democratic politicians and pundits calling for the packing of the Supreme Court. Nothing says Happy 250th Anniversary like tearing down the core institutions of the Republic.
