That's presumably because Isaacman told him that all NASA's money is buried on the moon.

I've read a lot of slanted papers from tech company employees about the 'benefits' of AI, but the fact that Anthropic themselves have put out such a cautious paper should be a big cause for alarm for people who are trading learning for prompting

And it doesn't improve productivity!

Republicans just lost a district Trump won by 17 points- in Texas. Thatโ€™s not an anomaly, itโ€™s a pattern. Democrats are building on our historic overperformance, and weโ€™re not slowing down. November is coming, and weโ€™re ready. ALL GAS, NO BRAKES!!

This is what government censorship looks like.

Paramount wanted its merger approved. The Trump admin got Bari Weiss installed as editor in chief of CBS News in a quid pro quo. Now the administration gets to control what you see on CBS News and when you get to see it.

Itโ€™s widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort โ€” specifically, if you donโ€™t have to work at getting the knowledge, it wonโ€™t stick.

Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.

The only appropriate response to this sort of dodge is "okay piggy."

I know some will say that's stooping to Turnip's level. I disagree. It will either:
1. Force the recipient to expose their hypocrisy
2. Normalize the behavior, removing the impact when he says it

He tried to end it, now he wants to rename it.
โ€œCall it Trumpcare,โ€ he says - the same plan, new label.
Thatโ€™s how power works when memory fades: destroy, rebrand, repeat.

How can one be accused of assaulting a federal officer (ICE) if the person hasnโ€™t been shown actual federal credentials during the encounter?

This essentially means ANYONE can kidnap you, and you assume that fighting back when some random stranger forces you into a car could get you arrested.

I first heard rumours about this in September.

We're currently without one of our most powerful tools for communicating with spacecraft in deep space, and it's not clear when we'll get it back.

Trump solved his problem of having to present actual proof that the people they have been murdering on boats are narco terrorists by letting the two witness survivors of the last attack go home.

As one does with narco terrorists.

The 11th-Hour Campaign to Land Trump a Nobel Peace Prize A bid was mounted to persuade the Nobel committee to make Trump the fifth American president to receive the honor.

Not only did Trump lose, he lost to a (very deserving) Spanish-speaking WOMAN. Gifted article about his shameless campaign:
