Wouldn’t it be something if Chinese open-source models ended up saving the world from oppression by Anthropic? Funniest possible timeline, for sure.

Bernie Sanders Can’t Explain American Innovation Asked point-blank why the US dominates tech while Europe stagnates, the Senator pivoted to healthcare and homelessness. The honest answer would destroy his worldview. garryslist.org/posts/bernie-s…

It’s going to be so therapeutic when Democrats finally nominate a moderate who is not senile, and just having a normal politician who can talk is enough to maintain a 60% approval rating and dominate the right wing clown show that is wrecking our civilization.

I've always been in between both political parties. Both the right and the left hate me. I'm a sex worker, but I've personally been the target of a bunch mass cancellation attempts by the left during the woke wars. I thought the BLM protests were kinda dumb (based on a factually incorrect premise), I think most people protesting Gaza are people who suspiciously seem to not care about other human rights violations, some worse and better documented. It's one thing when dumb leftist mobs make false, easily disprovable claims. It's another thing when the current administration does it. I have WAY higher standards for the people in positions of physical force over us, the people who control the military. The current administration appears to be hacking away at some of the things I thought everyone found sacred - our rights, our freedoms, and in some cases the process of democracy itself. I dismissed a lot of the early fears around this because they came from leftist factions who were hysterical about extremely stupid or false things, but I am increasingly horrified to find out that on this specific topic they unfortunately were right. We've moved past this being a normal left vs right issue - this is now entering the kind of territory that both left and right should agree is too far. We need our battlegrounds fair, our use of force measures, our leaders trustworthy. Even if we disagree with them hugely there should be some level of integrity. For example I think Mamdani is economically insane and will destroy prosperity in NY if given the chance and my heart breaks for the city - but he still plays fair, and as far as I can tell hasn't behaved in unethical or dishonest ways. I want the right to have a better leader, and I want the right to recognize they need a better leader, one that can fight illegal immigration and protect gun rights and keep taxes low and still, also, be a good person who takes the institution of government to be sacred. Otherwise the right will fail in the long term. This is not a winning strategy.

Howard Lutnick explains our broken immigration system: Open borders and a welfare state is a recipe for disaster “ You can't really open the border and say, ‘I'm gonna give my money to anybody who wants to come in.’” “That's getting it wrong.” “So when people say, ‘Open
