I wonder if he knows how cold Greenland is, or maybe he doesn't think the special envoy has to live there.

I don't feel much empathy for the Jews in the MAGAsphere, but when things get nasty for them, a lot of innocent Jews will get hurt as well. People like Candace Owens are not exactly known for the laser-like focus of their attacks.

I have an amusing story that this would be a perfect post to tell in response, but the main thread is far too important to distract from like that.

It will definitely not create clean energy for free. The fuel will be cheap (although not free), but that's true for solar and wind as well. The cost of the infrastructure will initially be much higher than renewables. If it can ever compete on price that's a long time away.

Come on, he'd be a moth at best, more likely a cockroach ala Kafka.

Worth noting the media release had the 350,000 years earlier claim, but said humans, leaving even less excuse for outlets that said men.

I suspect a third factor is that going to the dentist is now vastly less painful than it was (combination of better anaesthetics and more sensitive attitudes). Many people who avoided going will now if they can accord it.

Anyway, I have always had warm feelings about Garamond since, even though at the time I didn't care and just went along for the sake of team harmony.

I suspect it was all part of a package. We had a very talented artist in our team who painted all frogs we used as our mascots on badges, banners etc, and I think the whole look and feel, including the font created this impression of competence and knowledge and style, but also a bit of fun.

If that's the case, then maybe it doesn't really matter if it is up as a preprint, unless some journalists start tripping over the preprints and write about them without knowing the embargo exists, and others then feel the need to jump in.

Doesn't it depend on why you think embargoes exist? I've always assumed the main reason for an embargo was so a journalist will decide to interview an author (and maybe independent experts) rather than thinking "I better cover this immediately or I'll be scooped" and therefore do a worse job.

Reminiscent of the slave states that demanded free states return escaped slaves, and were then all "state's rights" when the tide turned.

Long ago I was part of a team in a university election where we adopted a policy all our publicity would be in Garamond for the main text (I've forgotten the header font). We were absolutely up against it, but a campaigner where everything came together saw us win. Maybe the font helped.

Spoiler warning - It's like the ending of Stand on Zanzibar

Clearly not a lot of faith in his capacity to hold the seat as a One Nation candidate - maybe knows he's not that loved.

I like the fact that you consider 51 to be young.

(More important of course is how wrong AI can be on even simple matters, and how so many people don't care).

I think it's not the percentage, it's the turnout. To win Benh needed turnout to be much higher in Davidson than anywhere else.

Made a donation to Mother Jones after reading this, because this is what journalism should be.
