In the last few years we've seen:
- The plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer
- The Storming of the Capitol and pipe bombs left at the RNC and DNC
- The break-in to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and the brutal on Paul Pelosi
- Multiple assassination attempts against Trump
- The assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband and the shooting of on State Senator John Hoffman and his wife
- Luigi Mangione's assassination of Brian Thompson
- The assassination of Charlie Kirk
Political violence is contagious. It is spreading. It is not confined to one side or belief system. It should terrify us all.
The foundation of a free society is the ability to participate in it without fear of violence. Political violence is always an attack against us all. You have to be so blind not to see that.
@madamewebgood No I just mean like they always give you toast when you order an omelette and that shouldn't be the case, especially when you already often get carbs in the form of some sort of potato
Grok is evolving much faster than any other AI.
If this rate of progress continues, @xAI will outpace other AI companies by a significant margin.
App upgrades are roughly on par with internal upgrades.
@StevenFulop Wouldn't it make more sense to create a real representative regional transit authority that would take control of everything from the MTA to NJT to even possibly SEPTA. A truly metropolitan transit authority is needed.
New Yorkโs plan to fix the MTAโs woeful mismanagement is to export cancer-causing pollution with their Congestion Tax to children in Jersey by sending more smog into our neighborhoods โ a new Lung Tax.
Today, I stood with local leaders to bring the Jersey fight, stop the Congestion Tax, and protect our families โฌ๏ธ
@noop_dev@gssp_acc @l3rock Yeah most DARPA end goals are fantasies like space lasers, fully automating vulnerability finding and exploit development, or robots that are fueled by eating plants: https://t.co/dTC2LY6q76 But the way projects work is they have phases where even like 10% of the goal will mean $
@gssp_acc @l3rock DARPA's job is basically to try to get private companies to do insane projects for the government. Almost like a VC fund for defense-related projects. This is them calling for companies to work on one such project, a transpiler that takes C code and produces equivalent safe Rust.
@marc_laclear@sama Most style guides I see say that if the role only has 1 holder at a time then ex holders should be called former. And the federal government seems to also do this(for example: https://t.co/8SdAobItBe) but for many office holders at a time they keep title https://t.co/1IKMkkQLPO
@DJNewlin@MusingsInSilico@SenFettermanPA@SenateAgDems No one is forcing you to eat school lunch, you can always bring your own. There's also usually multiple options usually including a vegetarian one. Nursing homes you might not have the ability to choose the food but you do have the ability to choose the nursing home.
