@TheMaineWire So she’s really +10.

@kreadisinnocent @scooperon7 Awful hard to believe their hands were tied from culling the rotten fruit when we’ve know for 4 years now that the whole damn tree is bad.

That’s why it was always called “Canton Coverup” and not “Sean Goode Coverup”.

AI is just the latest version of the John Henry steam drill legend.

It didn’t matter that Henry won the battle. The drill won the war. The world is better for it.

In every other version of this over 200 years, Henrys always die and the drill always wins.

We're living in a moment wherein conversation about AI is oftentimes shrouded by hyper-optimism and hyper-doomerism.

@DissidentClint and I believe that is a problem. And a problem worth solving. So, how do you start to solve that problem? By creating pragmatic, thoughtful debate. Clint and I are neither starry-eyed accelerationists nor paralyzed boomers (but we're happy to host the debate between them). And we're the kind of people that stick to our guns and don't take slow for an answer.

The Left wants to use AI for its usual agenda: scapegoating the right to excuse mass redistribution. Technocrats want it for unholy attempts at transcendence. Meanwhile, our enemies would use it to surveil, subvert, and slowly dissolve America.

The Right currently has no answer. Instead, we're busy squabbling between the poles of EXIT and RETVRN. Hyperbolically speaking, the debate is like, let's either "blow up all the computers in a Butlerian Jihad" or "use them to build a network state on a shipping container in the North Sea." These are unrealistic and ridiculous outcomes.

What's at stake is higher than "green line going up" and if Americans don't find a solution, the Right will be blamed when obsolescent human beings are put out to pasture by the Left's insidious designs.

It's time for a new vision that keeps our foot on the gas, but drives in the right direction.

@indietronicaone @Mason__McCann You nailed my thoughts on Platner and the Dem support. Why ruin your brand for THIS guy? It’s really weird.

I don’t care how many monthly value emails Redfin sent you or how much the town appraised you at.

Your home was never, ever worth that much. You shouldn’t have based your return on it.

Frustrated sellers face a buyer's market with growing inventory, according to real estate brokerage Redfin. https://t.co/kmC6JeJpmk

@guypbenson Never, ever speak in absolutes in politics, Guy.

[grc207 @grc207]

@Greg_Stephens79 So you’re where I’m at. I want to see cars pushed to the limits and tired drivers up on the wheel. That’s racing.

Either need to make races longer (they won’t) or make them shorter so they can drive harder, be more aggressive. That’s my point.

[grc207 @grc207]

@Greg_Stephens79 And you’d probably agree that one major problems is this car can easily survive longer races unlike the 90’s-2000’s where they could often break down under constant load?

[grc207 @grc207]

@Greg_Stephens79 Would you agree that the Next Gen driving the way it does makes the racing less interesting?

[grc207 @grc207]

@iownthelibs @LocalPoliticsis And no poll, to date, has been close to accurate about being a threat to Collins.

Platner isn’t popular. He’s terrible. Way, way worse than Gideon. But keep clinging anyway.

[grc207 @grc207]

@iownthelibs @LocalPoliticsis A reminder that Teflon only takes so many hits before it flakes off and kills you. His Teflon is taking a beating.

[grc207 @grc207]

@NRSmaine I shared the video with my other half. She was genuinely worried and scared for Amy. That wasn’t a natural video.

[grc207 @grc207]

@Greg_Stephens79 @jeff_gluck Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge with me. I’ve been watching since the early 90’s. But please go on.

When the sport dies from lack of viewers, we all lose it. This isn’t hard stuff.

[grc207 @grc207]

@Greg_Stephens79 @jeff_gluck Yes.

[grc207 @grc207]

@magi_jay @NRSmaine These farms often face long legal and permitting battles from other fishermen. By leveraging Cushman’s island as the only land abutter, he was able to accelerate his permit approval.

Can’t let bureaucracy get in the way of Senate aspirations.

[grc207 @grc207]

@CampNoWhere82 @jeff_gluck 16 years of straight declining TV ratings should tell you that you’re wrong.

I watched Indy car yesterday at Detroit and remembered they used to do a Saturday race and a Sunday race. I think that’s an option. NASCAR could pursue. Same racing miles. Less all at once.

[grc207 @grc207]

@TrishCote4 @Ch9seFan @jeff_gluck And NASCAR feels the racing is better when the racing time is condensed. That is why they do stages.

Shorter races on a Saturday with a car that races better. Imagine that.

[grc207 @grc207]

@mjohnson184 @Megafrayder2 @jeff_gluck Your local short track probably seats 1500 people and doesn’t have a TV deal. That’s a ridiculous comparison.

Sometimes you have to prune something to get it to grow better. That’s the state of the sport right now. Otherwise the whole plant is going to die.

[grc207 @grc207]

@CampNoWhere82 @jeff_gluck The problem is there were only 1 million of you left compared to the 10 million from just 16 years ago. At some point, the bills have to be paid and they are paid through TV viewership.

[grc207 @grc207]

@Ch9seFan @jeff_gluck And every single one of those sports has reduced ratings, including the NFL.

Which direction are those O’Reilly ratings going?
