Why does the Greek letter phi get transliterated to "ph" and not "f"?

Especially when we're finding enormous new deposits every few months and battery recycling is taking off

Look I'm not going to defend defense primes exactly, but a Service secretary *hoping* to see Lockheed, Boeing, Raytheon or NG fail, like cease to exist fail, is not good and is probably not going to get you more real capability faster

As I was saying to @besttrousers.bsky.social a few weeks ago, the "Abundance" label is a net negative. It's splitting the coalition internally and letting a lot of bad actors traffic destructive ideas in reputable places. YIMBY is just a better brand all around

He's in the night club, gets caught, eventually there's a line of people waiting patiently to fight him and each time he knocks one out an led sign goes up by one

The fun part is that this is the last V2 flight and V3 is a brand new rocket

They are basically correct that we're totally fucked if we're flipping a coin with this form of politics every 4 years, it's just that I think we also have a ~50% chance of maybe changing that before it's just oblivion

I think we need to put an enormous number of people in jail, cut enough funding to rural areas that everyone moves, build a bunch of housing, pack the courts and end the filibuster. We need 8-16 years in power and we need to change the GOP into something with different incentives

is this the lady who went to the Columbia bookstore and posted a breathless vlog flipping out about how students read the Koran

Auspicious start for the new CBS News, laundering unattributed cop shit-talking through the incoming editor-in-chief’s blog and failing to correct a misspelling of the story subject’s name in the web headline for three days.

Yeah. They used to keep it under wraps much more effectively, but the social incentives vanished over the past 2 years and now it's just out in the open

Seems like getting fired for being too woke is about the best way to explain your resume at this point. Very fun incentives all around

It's so funny how similar to an Assadist he behaves. Exact same tactics. Identical crashouts

wu, pavlou, and fetterman are charting out a fascinating new pathology: a combination of zionism and negative polarization that turns libs directly into nazis
