r/opensource just banned any project that uses AI. By their own rule, that means the biggest open source project of all time, Linux, is now banned too. The kernel already accepts AI-assisted code. This is the real AI psychosis.

In 2019, CNN spent nearly 3 times as many media articles and segments dedicated to the antisemitism of the "squad", than to the actual antisemitic attacks that occurred that year.

3% of “critical” software security bugs, in all of recorded history, have been found in the last month. This is on pace to find another ~100,000 bugs this year alone, adding ~26% more vulnerabilities to the all time total Do you realize how fucking insane that is?

No no no no. He bought A HOUSE in Miami. There's no way Page is going to spend more than half the year in FL and not CA. Just like all those NYers "live in FL" for tax reasons until Mamdani caught them in their lie. Billionaire moocher class.

Oh... was it a ramshackle operation, your Honor? You'd never expect that from this administration. To date, they've been so thoughtful and judicious with their use of power.
Lawyers for Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minnesota) accused federal authorities of ignoring key restrictions that a judge placed on the search of the lawmaker’s residence and demanded the immediate return of all property seized from the home. wapo.st/4i39bN3

★★★★★ “The most realistic Tosca I’ve ever seen. The dissident got removed and everything.”
We are disturbed to learn that @CalgaryOpera has removed bass-baritone Gabriel Sanchez-Ortega from future performances of "Tosca" after he unveiled a Palestinian flag during the curtain call on opening night. Art is political, and artists should not be punished for expressing support for the Palestinian people as they face a genocide. This decision must be reversed.

"I'd rather be beholden to fascists than the people advocating to cut into health insurer profits." Temu Skeletor needs to go away.

Credit to Lehman Brothers for proposing a mortgage safety bill that lets banks write their own rules. That’s more than the other banks have done.
