😂 The odds of landing in a fight with a kangaroo right after parachuting to the ground are pretty low…

But if you're in Australia, apparently they're never zero.

All these fucking dorks at Anthropic do is yap about how insane their product is and how end-of-the-world it will be

Someone tell these jabronis to shut the fuck up, holy Christ they're so annoying

@LisaJaneSpencer Peak satire and parody right here.

The hubris of these people is just incredible.

"Ooh, look at me, I'm the 21st century Oppenheimer!"

You can take those 'sparks of agi' (whatever that is) and blow them out your ass mate.

I’ve decided to leave @AnthropicAI

Never thought I’d say this so soon. The pursuit of AGI has truly been my life’s work but something more important has emerged.

In 1942, hundreds of America’s best scientists made huge sacrifices and joined the Manhattan Project to protect this nation against immense evil.

Today, America faces a similar danger. Over the last few years sparks of AGI have been felt across the world.

In order to protect this great nation against the threat of AGI ending up in the hands of evil, I have decided to join the modern day Manhattan Project.

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be joining (and moving into the office) @UseCorgi as a sales development representative!

This is the physical manifestation of what I have been warning about for many months: the president blatantly lies to our face and pretends that we are close to a deal, that Iran “has all been agreed to“ terms that President Trump wants, yet it was a lie from the beginning, and we are nowhere near a negotiated settlement w Iran on terms that we find acceptable.

Because there *are no such terms* we can find acceptable that Iran will agree to.

The longer we go on with the fiction, the longer we wait to take the “ugly deal“ I have been advocating for many weeks, the closer we get to the cliff, at which point even President Trump‘s best lies will not work and we are going to pay a significant economic price even here at home.

@DrChrisCombs Between this and Flight 12 it kinda feels like the China vs US race to the Moon is already lost.

okay, now tell them that their vulnerability doesn't qualify for a bounty, but then patch it in the next release.

The Aussie rules football league has better and often 21st century relevant performers for their half time show.

This lineup is so embarrassingly bad I'm borderline amazed. The majority of this list had 'hits' in the 80s and early 90s.

Just pathetic.

NEW: Sharyn Alfonsi goes scorched earth on Bari Weiss:

"Over the weekend, my contract with CBS News expired, drawing to a close nearly twenty years with the network, including more than a decade at 60 Minutes.

Following an intense editorial dispute over our CECOT story, repeated attempts by my representation to establish a path forward were met with absolute silence from network executives. The message could not be clearer: my time at 60 Minutes is apparently over.

In the coming days, network leadership may attempt to hide behind corporate euphemisms like "modernization" and “restructuring” to explain away my departure. Don't be misled. This was not a routine corporate transition; it was a deliberate choice to penalize a journalist for refusing to sanitize factually accurate reporting, and it sends a chilling message to the entire newsroom.

Fearless, independent reporting has always been the defining standard at 60 Minutes. Today, CBS management is abandoning that mission, choosing access journalism over accountability and protecting power rather than scrutinizing it.

The wall between editorial independence and corporate interest at CBS is being methodically torn down. Journalists willing to challenge authority are being pushed aside in favor of those who will not. If this continues, the result will be a broadcast that looks like 60 Minutes but lacks the courage and character to produce journalism that matters.

To my colleagues, who became family - working beside you has been the privilege of a lifetime. You are second to none. I’ve learned exactly what it costs to hold the line right now. Hold it anyway. Viewers and the people who trust us with their stories deserve nothing less."

The great thing about @benthompson is that he’s never afraid to tell it like it is amid all the banker and insider propaganda.

“In all seriousness, the numbers are obviously absurd, but then again, everything about this IPO is absurd. SpaceX is seeking a $2 trillion valuation on a mere $18.67 billion in revenue with $4.9 billion in losses last year, and growth actually slowed from 35% to 33%. That slowdown happened despite the addition of xAI (and thus also X), which tipped the company from a small profit to that massive loss, thanks to $5.1 billion in AI R&D expense. That R&D, keep in mind, went towards building a model that is in 5th place, and whose entire founding team recently left the company. But sure, $26.5 trillion AI opportunity!”

Look, if you are a Boomer struggling with property taxes let me help you

First, cheaper lunches

This cost me 4 bucks

Second, check those subscriptions they are expensive!

Third, maybe pick up some part time work and cover a bill or two, making a little more helps

If that doesn't do it, then you are simply living above your means🤷‍♂️

Sorry, I guess you don't need a 400k house then and should find something affordable in your budget
