It’s a very American story of uncredentialed citizens–an ex-Marine working as an accountant in Connecticut, a paramedic with an expired license who was fighting addiction–who rose to the occasion. Unfortunately Hollywood gave the assignment to Oliver Stone https://t.co/knmjTvxhg1

PF Sloan, who I believe invented the Grass Roots, wrote or co-wrote a huge number of hits and put out 2 excellent albums on his own, and had Jimmy Webb write a song about him, is not in the Rock Hall of Fame, which is kind of shocking. https://t.co/rUmyRq1yTF

Daniel Patrick Moynihan was wrong about Clinton’s ’96 welfare reform, but I admit that every time I’m in NY’s new Moynihan Train Hall I’m secretly happy he got the monument he obviously wanted (and deserved) https://t.co/9ZybpcTksS

Has SBF had the thought that AI-promotion (he could give it lots of money, for starters) is his get-out-of-jail card with Trump? (Hard to believe he hasn’t.)

It looks (tentatively) like the new At-Home-Parents plan does have a work test–one parent in the household must work. “Under the proposed rule changes, the [money] would also be used to pay married parents … when one parent works and the other cares for the child. … Single parents who do not work are currently not eligible for the subsidy, nor would they be under the new proposal for married couples.” https://t.co/q3DSCha1KB

Do the lawsuits against Fox really help explain Bartiromo’s punishment? Usually in an ongoing lawsuit (as Smartmatic is) you do NOT fire the reporters/anchors involved, lest they cooperate with the other side and say that e.g. Fox suits egged her on https://t.co/NEOoQawwHj

Is it accepted that opposition to data centers isn’t just opposition to data centers (eg noise, energy consumption) but opposition to the AI world they’ll bring? Proponents desperately need a better campaign to persuade the public they want to live in that world. Start with curing cancer. But even that’s not enough if there are no jobs. Needs an effective spokesperson–less Sam Altman, more Carl Sagan. (Forget Trump, who polarizes and seems to have forgotten about the need to persuade voters about his big decisions).
