The AI Bubble Is Bigger Than You Think - The American Prospect

When you are faced with the mendacity of Trump, Hegseth, & Johnson, it’s pointless to try & get clarity from them.
Go to the trusted sources. If you want to understand how we got here and what Trump & Netanyahu are up to, I present to you she who knows: Christine Amanpour. Breaking. It. Down.

A terror campaign is sweeping the United States, orchestrated from inside the White House and waged by masked, militarized federal agents. Its primary targets are immigrants. Also included are those in solidarity with immigrants, and, increasingly, elected officials, all from the Democratic Party.

They’re not ICE. They are anonymous guns for hire with zip ties and masks. This is the goddamn United States of America. Treat these scared little foot soldiers of fascism as what they are.

As someone who genuinely believes in the practical use cases for Blockchain tech this just sucks.
It seems like every good idea has to be used for terrible things before we can get to the good part.
It's gonna get worse before it gets better is all too real.

So far, folks have come to an initial consensus on these demands:
✔️ Repeal Citizens United.

✔️ Protect Social Security.
✔️ Due process for all.
✔️ Universal healthcare.
This may change as more input comes in.

I ran tech for the Summer Writing Program at Naropa for many years while attending and got to work on some of these performances/panels. It was a really amazing experience and he is a super kind laid back guy for sure.

From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.
Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.
