@mcsquared34 Nothing says laissez faire capitalism like the US healthcare system.

Capitalism can’t give you a working healthcare system, but it can give you 175 different kinds of BBQ sauce

@baytifirasik @jonatanpallesen But they don’t.

@jonatanpallesen People should stop fixating on the 'racial' element. People of any 'race' can uphold and transmit the culture of England or any other place. The failure is in poor or no assimilation of migrants, not in their ethnicity.

The UKs demographic fate is already further along than people think. While the country is still majority White British, these are to a large degree old people who have no impact on the country’s demographic future. What matters are the new generations being born. And they are already only 53.8% White British. Over time the old White British people die off, and the new generations will be increasingly non-White British — soon the majority. Demographic change can be deceptively fast in this way.

@paulg You were woke, though

Wokeness will seem such a joke in retrospect that many people won't believe it was ever a serious problem. Even many of the participants will forget. But it really was a big problem.

@insurgenthought Have you considered the possibility that he was laughably wrong?

As Anthony Bourdain once said, “as much as we think we know…we have barely scratched the surface of what Mexican food really is...It is in fact, old — older even than the great cuisines of Europe, and often deeply complex, refined, subtle, and sophisticated.”

@MasterTimBlais @tr_babb The best sales rep I ever had had a full face tat

@tr_babb that's what i said

brother in law says there's a permanent glass cieling in finance if you have any visible tattoos. can anyone corroborate? are there other fields like this? it's so alien to my intuitions that it caught me completely by surprise

@cethyzettai @pokerfacefrog @ShitpostGate It wouldn’t, because Japan has Japanese and the Philippines has Filipinos.

@Jonathan_Blow “AI helps me produce 10x as much code” “Good code, right?” “…” “Good code, right?”

Reminder: this is all fake. Any time someone makes a claim like this, either they are lying, or every single programmer they know is completely awful and can’t program at all. x.com/alexalbert__/s…

@theunquietbard @CaudilloNuclear Women had less fat and more babies for all of human history

@CaudilloNuclear How dare she have all your babies, carry your emotional burdens and poor development, and then be kind of chubby all while you’re fat as fuck jerking off with a microwaved donut to animated porn. It’s def her fault you’re a miserable piece of shit. If only she’d just look 17 💀

"Porn is destroying marriages"

@avindrafernando @trashh_dev He’s asking how to get his best engineers to start coding tasks with a prompt

@trashh_dev When he said "most senior" engineers, do you think he meant that literally? Because in my experience, the most senior engineers are the ones using AI agents every day.

need professional input here

@kimmonismus Or they’re just trying to raise valuations. Unlikely a startup CEO would do that, to be sure.

What I still don't understand is the following: Scientists and CEOs of the most important companies in the world say that: -will cure all diseases in 5-10 years (Dario Amodei, Demis Hassabis, Masayoshi Son, Sam Altman) - in 1-3 years we will see 10%-20% unemployment (Dario Amodei) -robotics will take over blue-collar jobs in a few years (Tesla, Figure, Unitree) And people will either - don't believe it - they don't care - they deliberately ignore it Folks, these statements are made by people who certainly have a lot more knowledge about how their unpublished AI models they are developing; have projections that they don't publish; an armada of highly paid scientists who only do research on these topics, in short: the smartest people in the world. And the majority simply ignore this. I don't understand it. Even Barack Obama, the Pope and really every important person says that everything will change very soon, rapidly, radically. And most people don't care at all. I don't understand it.

@AllyTaft Some people don’t deserve to be happy. Stuff like this won’t kill a relationship with a reasonable person.

A guy did this to my best friend on a 3rd date, and we started calling him "Mr. Check Yes or No" in the group chat, and she never saw him again.

@haider1 Right now this only looks possible if we see a massive increase in AI code slop and dedicate the 10% of human output to emergency bug fixes on critical services that actually have to work.

Anthropic CEO, Dario Amodei in the next 3 to 6 months, AI is writing 90% of the code, and in 12 months, nearly all code may be generated by AI

@Poplak Yeah, what are the women and children doing here? And they seem to expect that they need to bring their belongings instead of having everything provided? I bet they’re already seeking shelter and employment.

Not your traditional refugee exodus.

@LokiJulianus We get the cheapest stocks in years on transient changes in tax policy rather than, say, a financial crisis that might wipe out our banking system, and people *sell*?!

Tough scenes.

@cb_doge But how is Starlink going to remove access from India?

Approximately 31.3% of the world, around 2.57 billion people still lack internet access. Starlink has the potential to fix this.

@ThomasKemmett If I were to describe adversity I’d mention something like every company in my industry developing policies that explicitly discourage hiring and promoting white men, or homes costing a million dollars, or basic healthcare costing $20k for a family, not lacking a microwave.

@RobotecAvi @historyinmemes That elementary school is now Morris Jeff Community School, where 3/4 students don’t test at grade level in math

@historyinmemes A little girl with immense, boundless courage her firm step changed history. And those adults shouting insults… left a stain of shame on their generation.

Crowd of angry parents hurl insults at 6 year-old Ruby Bridges as she enters a traditionally all white school, the first black child to do so in the United States South, 1960. Bridges is 70 years old today

@historyinmemes How are these schools doing now?

@ctjlewis Wrong skin tone

nothing ever happened until May 7, 2025.

@shesova @stoolpresidente Just so you know, Dave Portnoy likes to seek out young girls and have violent, degrading sex with them, which makes the headlines every year or two at this point. I’m not saying the Holocaust was a good thing, of course; there aren’t six million Daves to go around.

Good for you. I am so disgusted by these young kids, who know nothing about the Holocaust. I will never forget Jewish gentleman who was a Holocaust survivor at one of Trumps rallies at Madison Square Garden. He videotaped a short clip where he lifted his sleeve to show the numbers tattooed on his arms. He was in his 90s and advised the Democrat party to stop calling Trump Hitler. I truly hope that you make sure these kids follow through even if it’s at a Holocaust Museum.

Emergency Press Conference - I’m sending the people who ordered the “Fuck Jews” signs at my bar to Auschwitz to learn about the Holocaust. Rather than ruin a couple 20 year olds lives maybe this can be used as a teaching moment
