@GerbrandHoef Als je abortus wilt stoppen, moet je je niet richten op die wet maar op mannen, zoals onderstaande 🧵onderbouwd uitlegt. Mannen zijn verantwoordelijk voor 100% van de ongewenste zwangerschappen. Helemaal lezen. https://t.co/I88ubrevJ0
If you want to stop abortion, you need to prevent unwanted pregnancies. And men are 100% responsible for unwanted pregnancies. No for real, they are. Perhaps you are thinking: IT TAKES TWO! And yes, it does take two for _intentional_ pregnancies.
Als je op straat loopt denk je er waarschijnlijk nooit over na: de 1,7 miljoen kilometer aan kabels en leidingen onder de grond. Maar gebruiken steeds meer stroom. Daarom zijn kabelwerkers zoals Regillo hard aan het werk om nog meer kabels te leggen. https://t.co/O28iQi7GqY
Smart, educated people rarely cause catastrophic harm.
This "natural safeguard" protected humanity for centuries.
But AI breaks this correlation - giving dangerous capabilities to anyone.
Their testing shows this protection is already crumbling.
This is Dario Amodei.
He's the CEO behind Claude, one of the world's most advanced AIs.
Yesterday, in a 5.5 hour conversation with @lexfridman, he revealed our timeline to superintelligence.
Let me save you 5 hours: 🧵
150 billionaire families spent $1.9B on the 2024 election through October.
It's a huge amount of money — but it represents just 0.07% of their overall wealth.
It essentially costs them nothing to drown our democracy in cash.
We must get big money out of our politics.
Prachtig vormgegeven reportage van collega @evarooijers over de Nederlandse zonne-industrie. Een nieuwe generatie bedrijven timmert aan de weg; is opvallend optimistisch. Allemaal proberen ze iets anders of beter te doen dan de Chinese bedrijven - https://t.co/PTYUYcQzP1 #FD
Afgelopen Raadsvergadering maakte huisarts Luc de Vries uit Diepenheim gebruik van het recht van inspraak. Bekijk het schokkende relaas over zijn lange praktijkervaring over de gevolgen van het gebruik van #landbouwgif: https://t.co/6RcH7uaXVo
Oktober de hoogste afwijking in temperatuur van de afgelopen tien maanden!
Geen idee welk superlatief ik moet gebruiken om aan te geven hoe krankzinnig dit is.
De aarde hoort nu af te koelen!!
Hoe dan!?! Welnu, de opwarming versnelt, fuckers, en niet zo’n klein beetje ook!
In many of our scenario analyses over the past decade, we often included a vision where Big Tech would reshape the global order. Gradually, we watched it unfold. Multinational corporations grew exponentially, at times stepping into roles that governments traditionally held. Then came Elon Musk.
Congratulations President @realDonaldTrump , and even more to 'President' @elonmusk .
This is how I now look at it: with each venture, Musk has transformed an entire sector: revolutionizing payments (@PayPal ), automotive (@Tesla ), high-speed transportation (#Hyperloop), tunneling infrastructure (@TBCETH20 ), space exploration (@SpaceX ), telecommunications (@Starlink ), energy networks (Tesla Energy), brain-computer interfaces (@neuralink ), robotics (Tesla hashtag#Optimus), and real-time communication (@X ). Today, he operates as a 'shadow president' of the world’s most powerful nation, approaching politics with the same startup mindset he brings to business: embracing boundless risks in pursuit of maximum reward and impact.
Musk's model is remarkably consistent: find a visionary 'sidekick,' often the original idea-holder struggling to realize the concept. We've seen it with Zip2’s Greg Kouri, PayPal’s Peter Thiel, SpaceX’s Tom Mueller, Tesla’s JB Straubel, Neuralink’s Max Hodak, The Boring Company’s Steve Davis, Twitter/X's Jack Dorsey and even OpenAI’s Sam Altman.
Now, for his latest venture, arguably the most complex ‘startup’ of all—reshaping the global economy, starting with #America — Musk has found an unexpected partner: the 78-year-old Donald Trump, who seems to revel in the role.
If the scenario "Big Tech" becomes now the world’s new power structure, Musk’s strategy might be the most innovative play yet.

“Why don’t you post more against the left?”
Both sides have their evils, but there isn’t a massive political movement on the left using Jesus as a mascot to justify demonizing rhetoric and discriminatory policies that contradict Jesus’ teachings.
This matters to me as a pastor.
