@scottfaughn @meaccoleman Agree. I turned off the feed. Dinner is almost ready anyway....and even if dinner was salted bread it would be more interesting than that book.

@EricBurlison I didn't realize until I read up on this that we were still trying to work on nuclear propulsion. I thought that died with NERVA in the 70s.

Here’s the exact moment that police found cocaine on Steve Witkoff’s son Zach Witkoff, who also happens to be Donald Trump JR’s best friend as well as CEO of their crypto scheme partnership World Liberty Financial.

Note that Steve Whitkoff is the top negotiator with Iran right now.

@ARod4Missouri It's not about which team you cheer for: which is stupid when it comes to politics btw. It's about good policy and bad policy. And this tax "cut" is bad policy.

🦔A global survey of 3,750 executives and employees found that 54% of workers bypassed their company's AI tools in the past 30 days and completed work manually, while another 33% haven't used AI at all. Combined, eight in ten enterprise workers are avoiding or rejecting technology their employers spent an average of $54 million deploying this year. Only 9% of workers trust AI for complex business-critical decisions compared to 61% of executives. Workers lose the equivalent of 51 working days per year to technology friction, up 42% from last year, almost exactly equal to the 40-60 minutes per day Goldman Sachs says AI saves workers who use it correctly.

My Take
I covered the cognitive surrender research last week showing workers under time pressure accept faulty AI outputs 73% of the time. This is the other half of that story. Workers avoiding AI entirely have figured out the tool doesn't work well enough for their tasks, or haven't been given the training or incentive to make it work. Neither group is irrational. One is surrendering judgment under pressure, the other is declining to engage, and both are responses to the same problem: companies deployed the technology before figuring out what they wanted employees to do with it.

The trust split between executives and workers on AI for business-critical decisions, 9% versus 61%, explains why these rollouts keep failing. Executives are buying the pitch. Workers are living with the product. Companies spending $54 million on deployments that eight in ten employees aren't using have a measurement problem as much as an adoption problem.

"There appears to be much more of a class gap (as measured by education level) than a gender gap in loneliness and isolation." Our research shows: Those without a college degree are about 2x as likely as college graduates to have no close friends.

@MOEdWatch Parents rights laws have 2 effects:
1. To ensure parents can lawyer up for their kids when they get in trouble, so the kid learns there are no consequences for bad behavior.
2. To ensure parents can complain the material is too hard and teachers need to dumb it down.

This lady ate a surface-to-air missile, sustained a 12-14 G rocket-propelled ejection, likely hit the ground at 15+ miles per hour…

And then she popped up smiling at the locals who came to help her.

Tell me again that women don’t belong in combat.
