During a House Judiciary Committee hearing, Rep. Mike Johnson attacks Roe v. Wade, insisting that if only women were compelled to bring more "able-bodied workers" into the world, Republicans wouldn’t need to slash Social Security and Medicare.

JUNlPER was suspended after Chaya Raichik, runner of Libs of Tiktok, complained to Elon Musk about a satire post showing how removing headlines leads to misinformation.

The Libs of TikTok account has yet to be suspended despite calling people groomers and inciting bomb threats.

Is it any wonder that the people who aim to be "ungovernable" vote for politicians incapable of governing?

4 indictments, 91 charges, 2 impeachments, 1 act of sedition, and threatening civil war. 26 women alleging sexual assault. 1.13 million Americans dead from Covid. And he is the front runner of the Republican Party. This is why I call it a collective psychosis.

Why are we not hearing about the studios / streamers suing large video generative #AI companies and making them delete their training sets because their copyrighted films/series are in there?
Because they want it to get out of control. The reason? 1/

My god—A Nebraska woman has pleaded guilty to helping her daughter have a medication abortion last year. The legal proceeding against her hinged on Facebook’s decision to provide police with private messages between that mother and her 17-year-old daughter discussing the latter’s plans to terminate her pregnancy. The case is a telling example of how Big Tech can be tapped to help prosecute abortion in the United States, where the Supreme Court in 2022 overturned Roe v. Wade, a 1973 decision that legalized abortion. Experts have warned that location data, search histories, emails, text messages and even period- and ovulation-tracking apps can now be used in the prosecution of people who seek an abortion and those who assist them, and this case shows they are right to worry. ➡️@Meta —which owns @facebook, could have challenged the legal order to hand over private messages to police, as it and other tech companies sometimes do on various grounds, but it didn’t! The private messages on @Facebook Messenger show how the two discussed plans to terminate the pregnancy and destroy the evidence, including instructions from the mother on how to use the pills to end the pregnancy. Those messages directly led law enforcement to acquire a search warrant, with police then raided the family’s home and seized six smartphones and seven laptops, with data like internet history and emails totaling 24 gigabytes.

This is weird to say out loud, but I actually am kinda an expert in rate limiting, so I'm gonna explain some stuff.

About half of incidents in large-scale production systems involve having more requests than you can serve. There are two categories of this kind of incident:

Okay, let’s get into it.

15% of white top decile students are admitted to Harvard, and 56% of black top decile performers are. This is not unfair.

If you’re outraged at Affirmative Action because of this, it’s likely a misunderstanding of the data/statistics.

I’ll explain.
