Yeah, it was as brutal as any other shooting. Do cops shooting kids ever get described as “brutal”?
It’s not like he was beaten to death with a tire iron, or denied treatment and left to a slow and agonizing death that also leaves your family in ruins.
Alternate story: Trump judge said the previous lines were too egregious to be legal, but then chose the most conservative map presented by the Special Master.
The kid based his map on the racially gerrymandered map and turned off racial considerations in the redesign. The map minimally tweaked a racial gerrymander, but because he didn’t use racism in his tweak he thinks it’s not racially gerrymandered. Garbage in, garbage out.
The CIA agents who directed him also shouldn’t be allowed to enter or remain in the United States.
Republicans are saying the same thing.
“Venezuela for the American oil companies will be a field day because it will be more than a trillion dollars in economic activity.”
“American companies can go in and fix the oil rigs and everything that has to do with the Venezuelan petroleum companies, with oil and the derivatives.”
“The Venezuelans have the largest reserves of oil in the world, more than Saudi Arabia. This is going to be a windfall for us when it comes to fossil fuels.”
They’re just saying it out loud.

That’s just where you put programs that sound good but no one wants to spend the money to actually accomplish them. 2050 might be the end of the world, but it’d be because all the stuff we needed to do to head it off were given “we’ll get to it eventually” deadlines.
In that they’ll discover a task that sounds easy will be practically impossible to accomplish?
Using the best models as synthetic data is mostly pointless. You’re just going to recreate all of its biases and failures in a degraded copy. The whole point of open source software is being able to analyze the source code to learn how it works and understand and ideally remove its weaknesses.
Open weights doesn’t let you do that, and what research it enables is mostly just tinkering around the edges. If someone trained a network, but it kept saying racist stuff, you can’t figure out why it’s racist or rebuild it without the racism from weights alone. Just the weights is like having a binary. Maybe nice to have a gratis app to use, but not really open.
Open-source AI is the data, not the weights. Weights alone isn’t useless, but it’s not a platform to truly understand and modify a network. No one wants to open their data though, because that’s both what gives them a competitive edge and it would be an admission of widespread copyright violations.
I’m surprised they didn’t cancel the project for being woke.
Except Mitch McConnel won. His political project was incredibly successful. Schumer has just failed over and over, losing battles and rights and leading the party to their lowest favorability in decades.
Why do people keep assuming Chuck Schumer is some master tactician when literally all we’ve ever seen from him is failure after failure?
So glad we gave him everything he wanted so now we have no leverage at all. Another masterful play by Chuck Schumer.
It would only be irony if the author thought the media shouldn’t scrutinize the press secretary. Presumably most journalists believe scrutiny of the head spin doctor of the regime is actually exactly what should happen.
Jean-Pirrre also had all that spinning of genocide to weigh on her.
What a joke of a headline. The “mixed” reaction referenced is that they interviewed two residents of Puerto Rico.
Summary of the people quoted in the article about “Gen Z” protests:
They’re just trying to coopt the other successful revolutions by people who are actually protesting for generational change, not just “do Boomer politics for people of means”.
From an Al Jazeera reporter:
Monica Cruz, an AJ+ reporter in Mexico City, said it was likely that the opposition was behind the protests in the Mexican capital.
“We are having a hard time believing that this is an organic protest. Especially from young people. We don’t want to say that Gen Z is a monolith. There are young people in every side of the political spectrum,” she said.
“But there’s not a lot of young people out there on the streets and we are thinking that may be a reflection or a sign that this is not really coming from the young people. Because we’ve seen protests here in Mexico City against the genocide in Palestine, for example, and we’ve seen young people by the thousands marching in the streets.”
Yeah, these numbers don’t really convey much without a family size and location, so they kind of just become engagement bait.
In Honolulu, a family of 4 is considered “low-income” (80% of adjusted median income) at $129k. $76k and they can qualify for housing assistance.
To state the obvious, but Bondi is the one with all the files. If she wasn’t already investigating them it wasn’t because she needed a public leak to know who and what was in them.
That title was really confusing until I realized Trump also had an enemy with the last name James and they didn’t mess up saying James Comey.
It’s not real though. Democratic woman are hot as fuck. Their example of an ugly Democratic woman is someone no one ever talks about who’s in her 80s when AOC is one of the most famous Democratic politicians. The whole Squad is beautiful. It’s just the sort detached from reality brain rot that propagates on conservative social media.
