I always hope for the best. Experience, unfortunately, has taught me to expect the worst.
Tired: "More people will use our AI tool than others because they come here for our unbelievably dominant search!" Wired: "Let's force people to find an alternative search tool!" Great plan 👍
The Atlantic@theatlantic.com · 3d agoGoogle has announced that for schools to opt out of its AI tools, they must cut off students’ access to Google Search. The move follows a familiar Silicon Valley playbook, @willoremus.com writes.
Grokbot can do incredible things! Like fabricate whole stories and apparently *not* alert Elon to the fact that he's going to promote totally fake stories as if they were real! (Also didn't know you could get double Community Noted)

Babies shouldn't be allowed to get into crypto.. They're notoriously connected to countless pump and dump schemes...
People handing it to Ross Douthat for asking Trump if he can forgive James Comey to get into heaven. Sounds like a question from a religious third grader. "daddy, when you get to the Magic Land, will you say just kidding about saying I'm happy you're dead?"
When a narcissist is winning, they flex their power. When they’re losing, they feign empathy.
UPDATE: Trump says he doesn’t care that Nvidia’s CEO was sleeping with a Chinese spy while getting him to let them circumvent A.i. Chip laws to sell chips to China (Because he bought their stock and made millions himself)
Leave it to @frankfukuyama.bsky.social to make @radiofreetom.bsky.social seem like an unrepentant optimist..
New England will have zero Republican Senators for the first time since the GOP was founded in the 1850s.

How will Trump respond to his losses? Promoting Miller... He's choosing violence, @democrats.org. Act accordingly.

Holy shit. In Colorado, Weld County and El Paso County will be represented by Democrats.. Never thought I'd see the day. Suck it, Trump.
BREAKING: Democrat Jessica Killin has defeated incumbent U.S. Rep. Jeff Crank, flipping a historically Republican seat in Colorado’s 5th Congressional District.
Cindy Hyde-Smith blocked Scott Colom’s nomination to be a federal judge. Now he’s taking her job.
Something tells me if it was worded and marketed like this, they wouldn't have tricked people into passing it.. The Dem reps and governor can likely nerf the impact.. Nevertheless, this is more proof that voters as a collective group don't really understand or know how to approach trans issues..
Kyle Clark@kylec.bsky.social · 6d agoColorado ballot measures to restrict youth sports and medical care for trans kids are on track to pass. Protect Kids Colorado co-founder Kevin Lundberg described the measures as a way "to stop the transgender plague in Colorado." Democrats in the state leg could weaken the rules.
