Grew up listening to The Kingston Trio, Ramsey Lewis, Traffic, Joe Cocker and the Allman Brothers. Crinkle cut fries are trash. Reminding you to deadlift.

@ishapiro But I do look forward to El Sayed having to answer the question in a public forum whether he agrees the US deserved 9/11.

This is the right take even if you’re an Ohio State fan.
Jesse Arm@Jesse_Leg
If you are a University of Michigan student and you go to this today instead of dartying and raging your face off to celebrate winning a national championship, you are probably a massive loser who hates America, your school, and all that is good and true.

@kane @_KarenHao Part of the issue is that you don't have 200 golf courses or steel plants in one county, which is how many data centers there are in Loudoun Cty VA.
English
The source of the data center water psychosis is @_KarenHao, whose book Empire of AI was a NYT best seller but overestimated water use by 100,000% (lol).
The response was just “oopsies” and all the incorrect books were kept in circulation 🤷🏻♂️
Jeremy Horpedahl 🥚📉@jmhorp
A typical data center uses about the same amount of water as a golf course, and the same amount of electricity as a steel plant. Yet for some people, they have become The Worst Thing In The World. Where does this motivation come from?

@TannersDadAndy @sbell021 Dusty’s dinner with Coach B was probably critical to the success of the recruiting process.

Give John Beilein a ring for this, too. He’s the one that got this program out of the desert. He got this program to the doorstep of a national title twice and this program wouldn’t be close to where it is now with the resurgence he led.

@EsotericCD In the process of passing *2*; yes, lightly is apropos.
Thank the Lord for Toradol.

Filing a Carnival of Fools often feels a bit like passing a kidney stone. (Which I have never actually done, thank God - perhaps why I can make that comparison so lightly.)

@scottlincicome You know, there’s this place nearby that makes a lot of aluminum. It’s called “Quebec”. Maybe if we give them a call we could work out a deal. Call it something like a free-trade memorandum which could help our aluminum issues.

@GreenPlusAnE True enough, but low bar. Trump was stronger than Prez who’s father & maternal grandfather was far left, mentored by card-carrying Commie, political career started in home of “small-c” Commie, CIA director voted for Gus Hall, and more.

@charlesmurray Money tends to rationalize things. There is much more money in golf these days, hence the quality of golf is much, MUCH higher.
Think maybe you should spend some time with the sports data nerds.

"He plays a game with which I am not familiar." Bobby Jones on the young Jack Nicklaus.
I keep wishing that the Masters would require players to use clubs and balls from 1970, so we could see how today's players score. They'd do fine, but when we put video of their shots at Augusta alongside video of the shots that Nicklaus, Trevino, Palmer, and Watson made, it would quiet some of the confident chatter that today's best are qualitatively better than 1970s best. And if you think that Tiger from 1999–2005 would have consistently beaten Jack from 1962-68, I'd take your bet.
Ian Ellis Golf Professional@necky_fade
1973 Masters Jack Nicklaus with a thunderous swing on the 13th tee. Apparently they’re better players nowadays and better athletes than they used to be, what a load of BS!

I’m seeing behavior like this too. Very eager to say it’s going to do stuff; not eager to actually do stuff.
Jeff Escalante@jescalan
Transition to gpt in openclaw not going so great this far 😂

@doodlestein @stevetrefethen Doesn't matter if redemption doesn't actually work.
English
@stevetrefethen I think you have to redeem by the 17th to get the credits to appear in your account, but you don't need to use the credits by then.

The Claude Code team could really benefit from my various testing skills on jeffreys-skills.md
Did no one try this before blasting it out to a zillion users?
English
@doodlestein I used 44% of 5-hour allotment last night with a single prompt.
English
This is like watching that Tibetan monk self-immolate, except its user trust and loyalty that they’re torching in real-time.
They really don’t have the kind of moat you’d need to have in order to get away with this kind of stuff anymore, but they don’t seem to realize that yet.
Lydia Hallie ✨@lydiahallie
Peak-hour limits are tighter and 1M-context sessions got bigger, that's most of what you're feeling. We fixed a few bugs along the way, but none were over-charging you. We also rolled out efficiency fixes and added popups in-product to help avoid large prompt cache misses

@cremieuxrecueil Hey now, it was Jungian synchronicity. I literally got the email a couple hours earlier.

The year is 2016 and people are still talking about epigenetic findings in mice as if they have any relevance to humans.

@davefobare @OliverKamm @KyleWOrton @thenation Actually, The Nation didn't touch it, and I would have loved an evening at the Y. As I said above, I'm always happy to engage people about the case. And yeah, they were careful not to leave a trail, except for maybe the typebars on the Woodstock.

The case of the Soviet spy Alger Hiss, who joined US State Department in 1936, is still held by some people to be controversial. It isn’t: Hiss was guilty & lied to his dying day. This review by John Earl Haynes of a bizarre revisionist book is definitive. direct.mit.edu/jcws/article/2…

@davefobare @lostmyliberal @gooduse63856452 @christopherrufo The SEIU texts me relentlessly. I ignore them. Not skimming anything off me.

California spends $30 billion a year to pay for more than 500,000 people to stay home with family members and cook, clean, do laundry, and watch television. The program mostly operates on the honor system—and loses $6 to $12 billion to fraud each year.

@RossDavidson7 @robinhanson @michaelmalice You’re free to build your own data center the way you want.

@robinhanson @michaelmalice What part of "I don't want to look at that ugly thing, change it" do you not understand?

I'm driving through "data center alley" in Virginia for the first time and it's the most dystopian architecture I've ever seen--and I've been to north Korea
English
@lostmyliberal @LibertyGirl1975 @gooduse63856452 @christopherrufo This is the kind of "home health care worker" program that I believe includes a skim taken off the top to benefit a state union for "representation".
English
You are obviously not getting it. A program like this is ripped off at industrial scale. This emotional argumentation is why this country is being looted into insolvency. I have provided end of life care to two elders in my family and didn't get a dime from the government. We have lost our way as a culture if people think that other people should pay them to take care of their family.

@Budsdoton @AlexFinn When history of the last several months is written I predict we'll find Anthropic had already embarked on this track by approximately the 2nd week of November 2025.

This is a writer for DropSite delivering this threat. One with active connections to several terrorist groups.
Remember a few weeks ago when Ryan Grim pretended to be offended by me describing it as a pro-terror propaganda outlet (which it clearly is)?
John Aziz@aziz0nomics
The most insane thing about this threat is that @RachelMoiselle was literally condemning Ben Gvir's death penalty law. She's being threatened by a darling of the pro-Palestine movement for taking a stance that is manifestly pro-Palestinian. What a shameful stance @AbubakerAbedW
