@SireedaMiller Were you living under a rock from 2000-2020? Biden was never the leader or standard bearer of any coalition. If he weren't Obama's VP, he probably can't win the primary in 2020, and might not have made it to Iowa.
English
@SER1897 @ClistonBrown Obama coalition had nothing to do with Biden's win. That's how little you know about politics. Biden has been in politics for decades & came w/his own coalition that had very little to do with Obama. It was part of Biden's coalition that helped win it for Obama. Do some research

We really need to get over this. A larger share of the electorate wasn’t buying what we were selling.

As you hit the stores for your Christmas returns keep this in mind. Very rarely does someone create a perfect video. This is one.

@AechErvin The whole country moved 3% right. Even in Michigan, there aren't 3% of the voters whose vote was changed by Biden's policy decisions re Israel.
Whatever caused Dem loss wasn't just some set of single issue voters. Pretending otherwise isn't the path to winning future elections.
English
@BirdRespecter we had a chance to move the entire political system to the left and get rid of MAGA but yall sat out because Israel is winning a war

There is NO ONE TO FUCKING VOTE FOR. How do you rubes not understand that yet? Even if you dislike the actions he took, this was the inevitable consequence of a system that stymies any possible change. These idiots are so goddamn exhausting

I will put it bluntly. If you think Luigi Mangione is a hero or deserves to walk free, you deserve to be on a terrorist watchlist. Good people don’t seek change through murder. Want better regulation? Me too. Vote for it. Don’t turn murderous idiots into heroes.

@grepmeded I bet it would hallucinate like crazy, literally worse than nothing.
English
@DavidJuurlink I bet it would be trivial to make a LLM plugin to rewrite bad notes to make them more simple to read while retaining the important details.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but short, focused progress notes are better than long, detailed progress notes. By a mile.

THREAD. There is a group of reporters at the New York Times who are intent on peddling copaganda whatever the consequences. The paper's Christmas Day crime article was one for the ages. It's a smorgasbord of propaganda tactics that I've covered, with some amusing new flourishes.

@VonTeckel In other words, US and IJN national security interests were in conflict far before Pearl.
English
@VonTeckel Things like the (morally and politically good) US oil embargo of Japan were absolutely targeted at IJN security interests. For Japan, it was essentially surrender now or roll the dice on removing US from Pacific.
Very similar to US shooting at Uboats before Pearl.

I just found this guy's work. It is something else. It is bad even by Hillsdale standards (very low).
Josiah Lippincott@jlippincott
I had a rockstar application for college--near perfect SAT score, perfect AP scores on 7 different tests, Eagle Scout, congressional internship, varsity athlete, etc.--but I spent my summers doing manual labor for long hours (100+ a week @VivekGRamaswamy) because, hey, that was the only work available that paid. Not one major American firm ever tried to recruit me for anything much less cultivate my talent. If American corporations are really so desperate for talent that they need to poach software coders out of the slums of Mumbai, where were they when I was a young kid looking for opportunities? Hell, where are they NOW? I have proven rhetorical, organizational, and intellectual ability. If these companies are in dire need of high-quality employees then surely they would be scouring American universities for hardworking and smart young men with real talent, right??? They should be offering competitive pay to smart guys who really would be willing to learn to code because we NEED hundreds of thousands of engineers. America needs to WIN! It's laughable, of course. I am a White male! No one is going to go out of their way to give me anything. What the powerful would really like would be for me to fuck off and drop dead (after I pay my taxes, ofc). I've had enough of this. With the exception of Trump, this country is ruled by people who hate me, openly or covertly. There needs to be a reckoning. Apparently MAGA hasn't gone far enough.
English
@ceneblock_MI It depends a lot on the type of business - if one is providing professional services, the corporate firm does basically nothing about your largest liability exposure.
English
@BadLegalTakes You can try to go after the individual, but lots of luck..
If a lighting fixture from your business falls and incapacitates Jamie Dimon, then your LLC probably won't protect you.
If it knocks me out, then I'm probably not going to be able to pierce the corporate vail.
English
@RIOldFolksHome You are reading very charitably. You are completely right, assuming the LLC provides professional services. But if the LLC were a corner store, the business and the owner aren't alter egos in practice.
English
@BirdLawDS @BadLegalTakes There are loads of people who (incorrectly, of course) think single member LLCs give liability protection when the member fucks up. Don’t be so sure that wasn’t what the poster meant.
English
@RobertoRod631 That's a bizarre view of his current positions. He's never been even vaguely pro-woke (even assuming that labels means anything).
English
A lot of tech guys seem unable to comprehend that old fashioned racism exists among the chuds. They learned racism existed among the woke, yet developed a blindspot when it came to the tribe they began identifying with. Partly because they'd have to admit leftists were right.

"The racists we just allied with to win an election turning out to be racist" is not a psyop, guys. 😂

@Thunder92674430 @millennialergy That's not an apology. I'm not sure it's even saying he was wrong before.
English
@Thunder92674430 @millennialergy "I'm less edgy" isn't a change in position or an apology. He wants the same policies he wanted then.
English
@TimSEsq @millennialergy Its not like he wrote a whole article on it richardhanania.com/p/why-i-used-t…
English
@Thunder92674430 @millennialergy Me too, except for those things I've vocally and repeatedly said I'm not.
Hanania has done zero to show he's changed. It's not the sort of thing one assumes from the passage of time.
English
@millennialergy @RichardHanania I am the EXACT same person I was 10 years ago

The fact that Sesame Workshop is having to do a full court press fundraising effort because we as a country don’t understand the concept of doing things for the public good combined with David Zaslav being the poster child for why CEOs are worthless is making my blood boil.

@eschensam If he means BLM specifically, that seems false since modern (antebellum South) racial chattel slavery isn't firmly established in Anglo tradition yet.
To extent he means push &pull btw progressives &reactionaries, mediated by technology &elite interests, that's also mainstream.
English
@TimSEsq To an extent, but Moldbug, IIRC, draws a somewhat clearer thru-line between, say the 1640s English Parliament, and, say, Black Lives Matter. He understood more than others that once we agreed to execute a king, the next 350 years of political evolution were kinda pre-destined.
English
Give me a political/historical take no one would believe, but is clearly true to you
English
@eschensam In sense that the Enlightenment traces back to Reformation, doesn't everyone who understands history (and also Moldbug) think this?
English
@PopulismUpdates Mencius Moldbug is broadly correct in his thesis that Anglophone modern-day progressivism is traceable back to the reformation. (However, he thinks this is a bad thing, whereas I think it's a good thing).
English
@JewishLives23 @SER1897 This discussion is more about what sets Dems up best in 16, 20, 24. I don't have strong or particularly relevant feelings about Obama v HRC skill in governing from 2008-2016.
English
@SER1897 If nothing to be done in 2008 primary to set up for 2016, we're just fucked.
Not sure if that's Dem establishment fault vs fault of demographics (hard to 3peat presidency) & inherent political momentum of conservative ideology (giving us Trump vs Rubio, Walker, Kasich etc).
English
@SER1897 @JewishLives23 In 2008, a wrinkled McDonald's wrapper wins presidency if D's nominate. W had lost GOP the election basically before race began between Iraq (eventual) unpopularity and 2007-08 finance crisis.
English
@GingerSnappiest He said "coming passage of the law." What got stripped out was an extension of an existing thing that would have spent more money to research pediatric cancer.
You are the one misunderstanding, in ways that suggest either deliberate lying or total lack of fluency in English.
