Trump knew he was going to attack when the meeting and photo op was taken.

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

I had a productive meeting with President Trump this afternoon.

I’m looking forward to building more housing in New York City.

[Justin Amash @justinamash]

The paid grifters, partisan hacks, and bots are out in force—misleading people about the Constitution and the law—to defend Trump’s unconstitutional war.

Here’s an important Iran war PSA:

Contrary to what you may have heard about the War Powers Resolution (50 U.S.C. §§ 1541–1550), it does not allow the president to take military action for any reason for 60–90 days without congressional approval so long as the president notifies Congress within 48 hours.

Section 1541(c) of the War Powers Resolution states clearly:

“The constitutional powers of the President as Commander-in-Chief to introduce United States Armed Forces into hostilities, or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, are exercised only pursuant to (1) a declaration of war, (2) specific statutory authorization, or (3) a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.”

Of the three cited authorities, not one indicates a presidential power to take unilateral (without Congress’s approval) offensive military action.

The first two authorities allow the president to take offensive military action but only with Congress’s express approval (Article I of the Constitution grants Congress the exclusive power to declare war).

The third authority allows the president to take defensive military action without Congress’s approval in the event of a specific type of national emergency, a sudden unforeseen attack on the United States (happening too quickly for Congress to meet) necessitating immediate action to protect Americans.

It’s for this last situation (or for situations in which the president introduces forces into hostilities unlawfully) that the War Powers Resolution provides for the oft-mentioned 48-hour report to Congress (§ 1543) and 60-day (up to 90-day) timeline (§ 1544). If there’s an attack in progress on the United States (i.e., currently happening), we expect the president to respond swiftly to neutralize the attack and protect Americans—and then we will hold the president to account.

The Framers of the Constitution agreed at the debates in the federal convention of 1787 that the president should have the “power to repel sudden attacks” but not the power to otherwise introduce forces into hostilities without congressional approval.

The War Powers Resolution does not confer any new authority on the president to take offensive military action without congressional approval—nor could it under our Constitution. It instead checks the president when, as the Framers contemplated, the president introduces our Armed Forces into hostilities to repel a sudden attack.

The fact that previous presidents have violated both the Constitution and the War Powers Resolution does not—and cannot—change the law or make any present military action lawful.

What happened with the @ArchtopFiber outage this morning? Was out for at least an hour but no alerts like previous outage.

[Frank Carey @frankcarey]

We're finally getting there!

[Hashem Al-Ghaili @HashemGhaili]

I did more tests with Google's #Veo3. Imagine if AI characters became aware they were living in a simulation!

[Frank Carey @frankcarey]

@nickgillespie @howardlutnick @FaceTheNation I think the idea is we're gonna use automation (robots) to do most of that work. Robots aren't there yet, but in a few years?

[Frank Carey @frankcarey]

No, This was plain wrong because:
1) undermines the pardon power
2) undermines equal justice under law
3) Promotes conspiracy theories
4) Furthers "what-aboutism" when others abuse their power, allowing the next offenders cover for doing it.

[Nick Gillespie @nickgillespie]

Any parent would do the same, given the opportunity.

There are two lessons to be drawn: 1. Way too many things are criminalized. 2. This sort of action, esp. without broader actions to pardon/commute ppl guilty of similar acts, is deeply destructive to fabric of society.

[Palmer Luckey @PalmerLuckey]

You can't play both sides of an issue like this, explicitly saying that you trust your own Justice Department and will absolutely respect rule of law and the will of the jury while smearing your opponent as unwilling to do the same, and then say "lol jk who cares".

[Palmer Luckey @PalmerLuckey]

Biden pardoning his son for drug and firearm crimes that his own administration ramped to an aggressive "zero tolerance" policy is expected, of course he wasn't letting his son go to prison.

The worse issue IMO was pledging for months, from June to November, that he would not.

@chr1sa I'm assuming it's a safety thing? Be able to send out long range communication across the country in time of crisis?

#ChatGpt generates a script for @ConanOBrien Needs a Friend podcast. It can do much better than this, but you have to give it a lot of info to start with. https://t.co/GRH5AjHqu0

Data generation through simulation is one reason why the whole idea of ML for science is so exciting.

At this point, I don't know who will be picked as VP.
But if that person isn't Pete, I guarantee you,
Pete will outshine that person every single day.
Until people will start wonder..
Why didn't they pick Pete in the first place.

This is an excellent idea to get the point across.

To help explain the weirdness of LLM Tokenization I thought it could be amusing to translate every token to a unique emoji. This is a lot closer to truth - each token is basically its own little hieroglyph and the LLM has to learn (from scratch) what it all means based on training data statistics.

So have some empathy the next time you ask an LLM how many letters 'r' there are in the word 'strawberry', because your question looks like this:
