Around half of San Francisco is without power right now and something like 1/3rd of intersections I drove through had waymos stopped in the middle of them making a dangerous situation even worse.
Do not let Waymo into your city.

Why decline all these chances to defend feminism? Because to participate would be accepting the premise that our rights and humanity are up for debate in the first place.
Once you’ve conceded that it’s reasonable to ask whether women’s equality was a mistake, you’ve already lost.

I went to high school with a trans man (who knew he was one) and that's one of the reasons I find it very objectionable when right wing parents claim that they're protecting young women because those young women are just lesbians, because we were totally different!

So, naval blockades of nearby rich but militarily weak countries by local hegemonic powers are very cool and very legal now, are they?

The idea that humanoid robots can enter danger “so humans don’t have to” is circulating again. This narrative has a long history, and a complicated one.
My work with EOD teams showed how robots, even nonhuman, reshape risk, not eliminate it. Writing about it now.

Once again, LLMs are useful in identifying practices that need to change. If citation-as-signaling is expected in your field, such that the citation is not a record of any actual engagement, then stop that practice. It is not providing any intellectual benefit. It is human-produced slop.
I think this post nails the actual problem, for researchers at least—AI hallucinations would simply not be a problem in academic work if we’d not normalized citation-as-signaling rather than actual engagement—you can only cite a fake paper if you’re not in the habit of reading the papers you cite
Do not cite an academic paper unless you’ve read it

NEW: Rep. Cory Mills owns a defense company that appears to have been illegally exporting weapons to Ukraine—while Mills sits on the committee with oversight of those sales. This has gone unreported and for a long time unknown in Congress. My latest here:
sollenbergerrc.substack.com/p/george-san...
sollenbergerrc.substack.com/p/george-san...
‘George Santos with a Gun,’ Pt. III: Up In Arms
Cory Mills appears to be the first active arms dealer to serve in Congress. That's probably because companies owned by members of Congress aren't legally allowed to export weapons—but his does.

Two things I believe to be literally true:
1. Yglesias is motivated in huge part by his fetish for getting yelled at by progressives.
2. There's nothing he could do that would piss off progressives more than a full-on embrace of progressive orthodoxy.
The trick is to make him think it's his idea.
