Your regular reminder that "smart people in tech" are a profoundly stupid bubble of self-satisfied profiteering psychopaths getting high on their own supply with zero regard for science or reality.

Prosecutors charging Keshia Golden with first degree murder after she called the police over 50 times for domestic violence is their way of telling her and every other survivor you should let your abuser kill you.
LET THEM BEAT YOU TO DEATH. Because if you defend yourself and your child, we will make you regret it. We will punish you for surviving.
Keshia’s legal team is asking for public outcry. Let’s give it to her.

The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect.  Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.

This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public. 

Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.

Jewish surgeon Dr. Mark Perlmutter, who stars in the new documentary American Doctor, calls Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer “prostitutes for the Israeli lobby.”

He says srael’s influence over Washington is so extensive that “the United States Congress building is the most occupied territory by Israel.”

“It’s not the West Bank. It’s not Gaza. It’s the U.S. Congress.”

I really wish people would go back to understanding that the R-word is a slur that can't be reclaimed and shouldn't be used.

@TheDuskbloods That's cool, but why don't you want anyone to see the game?

[Sasha @Sashaz04]

THC should be legal in all 50 states. Federally. Full stop.

Legalize it. Regulate it. Expunge marijuana convictions. Release people still incarcerated for offenses that are now generating billions in legal sales.

The war on weed failed. End it.

Reminder: Flock is just one example. Palantir is another. Digital ID is another.

We need to fight the entire surveillance industrial complex. And we need to fight as hard as we can.

Anyone going to a Kanye, Drake or Chris Brown concert is a loser with no morals.

[Uzi @UziCryptoo]

So let me get this straight:

If I buy a DVD, digitize it for myself, I could potentially get hit with copyright issues.

But Al companies can scrape books, websites, articles, images, code, and other copyrighted material at massive scale to train their models.

Seems like the same rules that apply to regular people don't apply to big corporations.

As a Member of the Judiciary Committee, I have been absolutely clear that free speech is a Constitutional right that we must all stand up and protect. I have been communicating my concerns about the cancellation of the Hasan Piker event directly to the University, and they have informed me that they are doing an internal review to ensure this never happens again. I encourage student groups who want to hear from Mr. Piker to work with the University to ensure that they can proceed. https://t.co/XzOFZ12QaU

I have a lot of expenses coming up so it’s a beautiful time to remind everyone that for $40 you could be the owner of one of my famous Big Ol’ Cigs and for $0 you could retweet this and help me find someone who’d like to own one
