for a long time i said that antisemitism, particularly on the american left, was not as bad as people claimed.
i'd like to just state that i was totally wrong.
i still don't understand it, really. or know what to do about it.
but it is so fucked.

Every day, one more tiny, unspectacular brick added to the "we likely are in a simulation" edifice
I’m not the cigarette-brand-starting type, but someone could make a (literal) killing selling the ones from Atlas Shrugged.

Dirty smear politics is alive and well in SF, and it's high time we made sure the playbook backfires from here
A few dishonest groups invent a smear and the local legacy media rubber stamps it out of abdication of duty to the people
We demand consequences for the lies now
Manny and Shahid. Both were accused during political campaigns by common members of three groups: The Harvey Milk LGBTQ Democratic Club, the SFBerniecrats, and the San Francisco Democratic Socialists. Dean Preston and Jackie Fielder participated in Buttar’s smear despite Buttar being a fellow Democratic Socialist and rising star on the national political stage.
Fielder and Preston along with the rest of DSASF signed a document rescinding their support of Pelosi rival @ShahidForChange despite admitting the sexual assault claims had been “debunked.” This was a smear job, and so is what they’re doing to Manny. Part 1 — the case for Manny ⬇️

I've been good friends with Manny for years. In every interaction I've ever had with him, he's been one of the most decent, goodhearted people I know, the kind of person who walks up to bus drivers on buses he isn't even riding, just to thank them.

When headlines lie by omission, it says a lot about the headline writers in a news room
The @sfchronicle chose this headline for a piece *exonerating* Manny?!
1)SFPD tabled its investigation, which means they couldn’t find evidence it occurred. 2)The kraykray accuser — not Manny — sent Manny flirty stuff *after* the supposed assault. 3)His story changes under oath.
Congrats @matt_sawchuk and team!
1/ Last year we got hooked on agents. Today, many friends and family still haven’t found their daily AI.
So we built @heyjarvie, your AI assistant for iMessage group chats.
With an $8.3M Seed from @a16z, @Base10Partners & @lightspeedvp we're giving chats an agentic boost!

What a rotten deal we made with Iran. We get nothing (except laughter at our stupidity). They get everything, including delay and big cash!

Today, we dropped the price of enterprise AI by 80%.
Same frontier AI. Same chat, cowork, and code experience.
Just 5x more tokens for the same spend.
Here’s how and why. 👇 Also, we made a video. Please enjoy.
Reminds me of this @waitbutwhy
In March 2023, Claude had an estimated IQ of 64. Today, Claude Opus 4.6 scores 133 on the Mensa Norway test. GPT-5.2 Thinking hits 141. Gemini 3 Pro, 142.
That's a jump from cognitively impaired to gifted in three years. No human population has ever improved that fast, the Flynn effect gives us ~3 IQ points per decade.
AI just did 70 points in 36 months.

the same people who cheered when a guy was shot for exercising his 1st amendments rights peacefully
are the same people who mourn a guy who oppressed 90 million for 40 years, rolled back the rights of women while murdering 1000s of his own people
never has there been a better example of the difference between the perception of goodness vs reality of it
Using AI to build products is table stakes.
Using AI to build systems that build products is leverage.
