I would argue they knew exactly what they were doing, which was deliberately sabotaging needed public works programs by offering snake oil they never had any intention of delivering.

aye and the return of low rise jeans is the only upside to this

god, to have only three bugs again 😂😭

this is what google did with the Java runtime when they created Android, the lazy fucks. except they didn’t use LLMs to rewrite it. and they forgot to remove obvious notes and author sigs all over the source code because they’re a bunch of chucklefucks over at google (outside project zero i mean)

ya know… if you got allergies and need better sleep, there’s a really great antihistamine called vistaril that works wonders. also lowers anxiety symptoms as an added bonus

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countries—including the United States.

That Iranian Navy ship we torpedoed had no ammunition on board because that was a requirement to participate in the MILAN 2026 exercise (organized by the Indian Navy).

The US Navy knew this because IT ALSO PARTICIPATED IN THE EXERCISE. What a national embarrassment.

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

helps quite a bit if I'm being honest

never, ever, ever, ever accept "how will you pay for it?" as an argument against social programs.

it looks like i’m a feckless and incompetent CEO steering one of the largest ships in the world toward certain disaster. this is false — i’ve actually just had a fantastic learning opportunity! ChatGruntPT will never kill without at least a corporal’s vague positive sentiments as tacit approval!

The US has fewer counterintelligence officers who have experience with Iran because a few years ago those US officers did their jobs properly and assisted with a judge-signed search warrant regarding a criminal theft of US defense secrets, which the search found a lot of evidence of.

Seriously.

447. The Shinji Problem We get into the love/hate triangle between Anthropic, OpenAI, and the Pentagon and discuss the details of these contracts for AI weapon and surveillance systems, what’s actually at stake here with deb

In the new TMK, we lay out the love/hate triangle between Anthropic, OpenAI, and the Pentagon and how the competing (a)moral visions for AI and war really come down to a difference of opinion about technical capabilities, not ethical or political concerns.
