Apple is launching a new klarna-serviced device leasing program. In part because AI demand has made the chips too expensive for consumers to swallow. Can’t wait to discover more AI “efficiencies” www.wsj.com/tech/apple-p...

Last night I watched an interview of clavicular and, in between his rationalizations of his misogyny, I realized: He’s treating his body like a role playing game. Grind, build your stats, “max out” your level, and then and only then can you beat the boss/enter real life. This is fear of failure

“Pay us money or be annihilated in a financial crisis” sounds like mobster stuff er um I mean Trump admin stuff

AI boom could falter without wider adoption, Microsoft chief Satya Nadella warns

Hear me out. So capitalism always needed an ideology to provide cover for its depredations. It used to be this meritocracy/formal equality/up-by-your-bootstraps individualism. No one buys it anymore. Enter Curtis yarvin and his stories about the legitimacy of business daddy hierarchy.

Sometimes when I think about the amount of treasure the hyperscalers are throwing out, I think: “so this is how much capital wants to rid itself of labor.”

Every time there’s a bubble and we all get anxious about a crash, I am reminded of how interdependent we all are, notwithstanding the “up by your bootstraps” individualism & entrepreneurialism of neoliberal ideology. It’s almost as if… it’s a lie

A GOP Congressman, Griffith Morgan (Virginia), has introduced a bill to strip people in Guam, Puerto Rico, the District of Columbia, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and every other US non-state territory of their birthright citizenship. www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

Abdul El Sayed has a podcast with *crooked media.* So totally radical.

One thing I appreciate about a movie from a Batman director is that the “we only need to wait for the Big Guy to save us” narrative is that the Big Guy didn’t really save anyone and started the problem to begin with.

My Haitian friend was just fired from his job. "They said I don't have a legal status now." This is likely happening to hundreds of thousands of people across this country today. Sick.

I don’t know if the VC model is so amazing. Their last best good idea is genAI and it’s losing a ton of money with no plan to reduce costs. So … no more science at all…?

Police murdered a Black man in the street in Madison WI today. Shot point blank in the head while on the ground, tased, and surrounded by four cops. It looks like an execution. Multiple videos circulating online. Things are about to get very bad here.
