This doesn’t go far enough. They should add buttons to instantly commit other crimes like ordering drugs or sending legally actionable threats to public figures.

Do they have to be a conservative expert in the same field? Can I invite Clint Eastwood to talk about biostatistics?
More than anything, they want to be patted on the head and told they're a good boy by the liberal elites

Fact check: this is an AI video of a hologram of body double pumped full of stimulants and being puppeteered Weekend at Bernie’s style all at the same time.
Trump on moving Space Force base from Colorado: "The problem I have with Colorado -- they do mail in voting. They went to all mail in voting, so they have automatically crooked elections. And we can't have that."

How about instead of pre-gloating or pre-whining in a pantomime of 2016 except for an election that won’t happen for 3 years, we make affirmative cases for the candidates we like? I intend to vote in the primary for someone who is good on Trans rights (hopefully the Great Khan of the Plains)
So...I think the left sometimes feels like saying, "I won't vote for this person in the general election" is a way to push other Ds not to support that candidate. "if you nominate this person we'll walk and you'll lose!"
I think that strategy really backfires though. 1

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns

Even putting aside the fact that Ramos is morally selling-out, her original “strategy” doesn’t even understand how ranked choice voting works. The whole point is to make spoilers much less effective.
And here’s what she said weeks ago to me:

People interchangeably use "the democrats" to mean "the current set of elected officials", "the very worst of the current set of elected officials", "liberalism", and "all past, present, and hypothetical future elected officials". Those don't mean the same thing!
There was a very popular post this morning claiming that Democrats will never stand up for trans rights, and then this afternoon every single Senate Democrat indeed stood up for trans rights. Maybe go easy on the dooming and performative dunking on Democrats?

GenAI can produce a relatively credible looking rendition of the kinds of reports and summaries that bosses ask for, but they think that’s our entire job.
If you have zero education, but learn how to ask AI models the right questions , in many jobs you will be able to outperform someone with an advanced degree, but who is unwilling to use Large Language Models.
Just takes a smartphone, curiosity to experiment and a mindset to learn.

The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world. 🧵

I would respect Generative AI slightly more if top-of-the-line GPUs looked like this.
Earlier this year, Microsoft told businesses to buckle up as we're on the cusp of seeing quantum computers solve meaningful problems. But are we?
