Just a simple stand up comic, standing in front of a body of knowledge, trying to tell it I love it. #Psychology #Neuroscience #AI #Comedy #TheSlowLearnerPodcast

When anyone from SCTV dies it’s like 30 people have died. Every character they created was as alive as anyone else you’ve ever met.

To Poilievre's friends.

Lay off Carney's kid. Stop being a bunch of bullies and jerks.

It's not okay.

The US is way closer to being Russia’s 47th Oblast, than Canada is to being the US’s 51rst state. #canadian

Pierre Poillivre went from next PM to Drake without the need of even one dis-track.

I love the world outside while the Superbowl is on TV.

It’s how I imagine the world would be after β€˜The Rapture’ if god was a β€˜Bro’.

They can’t change history if we decentralize its data. Harvard as Library innovation lab doing the lords work making it easy for citizens to archive the archives that are getting deleted by the new regime.

Placing a 25% tariff on your closest friends who worked with you and never didn't come to your aid.

- price 155 Billion dollars.

Making an enemy of the 40 million people on your border, and showing the entire world you can't be trusted.

- priceless

I’m sorry George, with all due respect;

A sane America would be protesting, striking, resisting, educating, coordinated messaging, organizing, sacrificing, and preparing when their nation succumbs to fascism while alienating its closest friends.

So pardon me if I question your sanity.

Duplicitous cheats like Zuckerberg and Musk might advise the #US to turn on friends, just like they did to make their Billions.

But you’re mistaken thinking #Canada is the Winklevoss Twins.

We’re the Hanson brothers. Our knuckles are foiled, and we won’t shy away from a fight!

There are so many incredible stories in our shared history of Canadians coming to the aid of Americans and Americans coming to the aid of Canadians. Reflecting on moments like these, are what makes this shocking betrayal so incomprehensible to so many.

As a #Canadian, I support #Mexico against the tyranny of the Trump presidency. While our news is so focused on our plight, the assault by this administration is ungrounded on both our countries. Let’s stand together, coordinate together and fight the US together while building stronger ties.

Time for Canada to burn down the White House again.

This time when we do it, we ask Americans who know that you’ve been tricked and deceived, to join us and wrest control from the Billionaires & extremists who stole the American dream and replaced it with grievance and hate to join us. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ πŸ”₯ πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

"We're going to stand up to a bully" | Mark Carney on President Trump’s Canada trade tariffs
YouTube video by BBC Newsnight "We're going to stand up to a bully" | Mark Carney on President Trump’s Canada trade tariffs

I feel a sense of relief that Mark Carney is going to be the PM in a few weeks.

Just try to imagine Pierre Poilievre giving this interview.

Carney's intellect and experience are so far beyond Slogan Boy.

Now, we just have to figure out how to keep Musk out.

#2 put an EXPORT tax on oil BEFORE the tariffs. 25% forcing the US to have to negotiate with Venezuela for crude. Spiking their gas prices. Nothing undercuts a president like high gas prices.

Alberta will be angry, so sorry but πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ first.

First: we cut off the electric power to the NY power grid. Not all at once, but 20% a week.

Brown outs in NY city & the stock market will wake up the US to what’s happening.

We have 2 key leverage points to beat the US attack on our country.

We must UNITE as Canadians to do it.

#1 is a conservative idea by Doug Ford

#2 requires Alberta to sacrifice for Canada.

Bring it on Trump.

You have united πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦.

A nation built in the toughest environment on earth. Our strength is cooperation, innovation and community.

While your party which tricked the good people of the US is built on bullying and shortsighted gains.

We are committed to not being you πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

It’s not, if anything it shows how much capital in AI is directed by individuals and funds that don’t understand a potential increase in training efficiency won’t significantly decrease compute in advanced models because the TTC trajectory is logarithmic to overcome the theoretical gap to AGI.

Meet the right-wing Canadian influencers accused of collaborating with an alleged Russian propaganda scheme | CBC News The social media accounts of two Canada’s most vocal far-right pundits have fallen unusually silent after U.S. officials accused them of being collaborators of a covert Russian propaganda campaign.

People might be disappointed with that line on Russia, but the context here is that Russia knows that it can impact Canada by targeting the US. So yeah, not a lot specifically targeting us, but it basically gets a 2-for-1 and we saw that with Tenent Media in September. www.cbc.ca/news/investi...

President Trump sends the US military to free the water. A masterful tactic reminiscent of another insane leader Caligula, who boldly once declared war on the Sea. Chalk this up as another big win for cults of stupidity and their demagogue’s.
