If star trek: the next generation came out today, people would really hate Data. They'd probably invent some pretty bad slurs.

The three AI outcomes
- we all become one with the machine god and shuffle off our mortal coils to live as a hive mind of cyborg superbeings
- we all die horribly and painfully in an alien world that has no use for human emotion, creativity, or intellect
- 1.5% TFP growth for seven years

Called this morning and then got 3 more friends to call.

Let's get this thing through the finish line.
Reminder that @governor.ca.gov is reportedly considering vetoing SB79, the best housing bill to clear the CA legislature in decades.

It would be a *disaster*, substantively & for Newsom's political future. Really hope he doesn't self-immolate.

Tell him!
Contact the Governor | Governor of California
You can contact the Governor a few different ways. The best way is through his online form.

not in the top 10 things that's objectionable about this but speaks to the idiotic illiteracy of the trump supporters that they watch apocalypse now and think kilgore is cool. the point of the character is that he sucks and the way he sucks is emblematic of why the US lost the war!
The president of the United States, a Vietnam draft dodger, declaring war on an American city (with AI slop implying that he will burn it with napalm)

It’s an entire party of people gradually realizing they were abused as children by the people who were supposed to keep them safe
Watters: Trump golfs. He has dad strength. You know dad strength? He doesn’t look like he's in shape but when he grabs you—One time my father grabbed me and I was like oh, my god, this guy is stronger than I am.

It’s genocide
Josh Weinberg, @reformjudaism.bsky.social's VP for Israel, says the despite "unspeakable starvation and senseless killing" in Gaza, people should not use the term "genocide" and instead "put ourselves in the place of hostage family members."

Does anyone have some sort of grand unified theory for why this is happening everywhere?
Apparently 36% of Japanese voters believe that "immigrants are taking our jobs" bro what immigrants does Japan even have?? ATP a solid like 40% of voters *in every country* are just driven by completely imaginary grievances

They are idiots that are in a cult, they will believe what they are told to believe.
Just thinking aloud here … but if Trump pardons Ghislaine Maxwell, won’t his base be absolutely furious? People are predicting a pardon because the assumption is she’ll somehow exonerate Trump. But as willfully gullible as his base is, are they really going to buy that there was no quid-pro-quo?

Luckily if you believe this is insane there are nearly an unlimited number of ways to become fabulously wealthy! I would not make any of those bets.
35% of the value of the US stock market is the mag7, 19% of that is NVIDIA, and *42% OF NVIDIA'S REVENUE IS THE MAG7 BUYING GPUs*. Our god damn economy is supported by whether five companies buy more GPUs every quarter! This is insane!
