"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."
-Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953
A government that pushes toward war while the economy struggles and healthcare declines is failing its people.
Leaders should fix problems at home β not send young Americans into needless conflicts.

My chief frustration in politics at all levels has always been the overwhelming apathy of the privileged
The people who sit back & ignore the fray because they know that any & all outcomes will not affect them
The is the state of the US Congress
Their apathy will be their undoing
And yours
He is so guilty! If he wasnβt, heβd be putting up billboards.

I have seen what happens in tense negotiations when things get stressed and deteriorate super fast, and I could believe that was a large part of what happened here. *We believe in a layered approach to safety--building a safety stack, deploying FDEs and having our safety and alignment researcher involved, deploying via cloud, working directly with the DoW. Anthropic seemed more focused on specific prohibitions in the contract, rather than citing applicable laws, which we felt comfortable with. We feel that it it's very important to build safe system, and although documents are also important, I'd clearly rather rely on technical safeguards if I only had to pick one. *We and the DoW got comfortable with the contractual language, but I can understand other people would have a different opinion here. *I think Anthropic may have wanted more operational control than we did
I saw some folks asking what the difference was between what OpenAI signed with the DoD and what Anthropic said they wanted, and Sam more or less admits here the key point: OpenAI's deal requires them to trust the NSA. Anthropic's contract had real safeguards.

Democrats should say that Trumpβs attacks on Iran are unconstitutional.
The American people do not want a war in Iran. The Congress did not authorize a war in Iran. It is an entirely illegitimate action that has no legal or constitutional basis. It is the act of a lawless regime.
we gotta make it so taboo to admit that you ever supported trump in anyway when it's all said and done. like you should be vulnerable to losing your job if you admit to voting for this guy

Wars can only be declared by Congress.
Taxes can only be levied by Congress.
Spending can only be appropriated by Congress.
Laws can only be passed by Congress.
Any President who refuses to work with Congress is an enemy of the Constitution and the rule of law.
