Ok that made me laugh
I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes
Video obtained by CNN shows the rear landing gear of the jet buckling and the right wing shearing away in a fireball after the plane landed hard on the runway.

Jesus christ, was I giving him ideas?

My doctor is getting stronger. I’m up to six apples a day and he just keeps inching closer
Live like a libertarian! Don't think the planes are safe? Just don't fly. Don't think the food is safe? Just don't eat.
This afternoon, the top FDA food official responsible for overseeing America's food safety and inspections resigned from the federal government.
Yeah I know people say anxiety is bad, but mine has just been collecting all the possible things that can go wrong so far. Once it has an exhaustive catalog of every possible mishap, it’ll move on to suggesting solutions and then you better watch out.
Ok, we’ve got the fifty story hulking lizard monster…like a dinosaur but it breathes fire. But we need a potential nemesis…something that could take on this titan and win. Ideas? 🙋‍♂️: Moth.
Here are some nice mushrooms

There's no unemployment if we fire everyone at BLS!
It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.
Statistically speaking I will be far safer on my flight than I was on the drive to the airport. But (gestures at the world) I certainly understand the apprehension.
For those that disagree with me on AI, this article does a good job explaining your position and why he thinks you are right open.substack.com/pub/garymarc...
Philip K. Dick on seeing Meat Loaf on TV (from What If Our World is Their Heaven?: The Final Conversations of Philip K. Dick)
Dick: OK, I watched the guy first with the sound off. And I thought, if he's as bad audibly as he is visually- he is so bad that nothing like this has ever existed. OK.

LEE: (laughs) That's pretty bad. But he does have a strange-

Dick: I turned it on, you know, I turned the sound on, and I thought it was pretty good.

“I thoughts there were some brakes on the system, but I was wrong.” One year since Alexei Navalny’s suspicious death, political opposition in Russia is more repressed than ever. Here’s what’s going on: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
SNL50 is basically just an all stars episode with a million callbacks and cameos for fan service. It kinda rules.
Eric Adams's attorneys to Judge Dale Ho: "There was no quid pro quo. Period." Eric Adams's attorneys to acting DAG Emil Bove:
Mayor Adams's independent abilities to exercise his powers have also been complicated by his indictment. The Mayor derives his power from the New York City Charter and the inherent nature of his political position. His powers allow him to take actions such as preventing the Office of the Corporation Counsel from litigating challenges to immigration enforcement, preventing appointed city employees from taking public stances against enforcement efforts, re-opening the ICE office on Rikers Island, and directing the NYPD to supply manpower to assist federal immigration agents.
Indeed, just last week, Mayor Adams stepped in to clear up
miscommunication between DHS and the NYPD, and he helped ensure that additional NYPD manpower was allocated to keep federal agents safe during dangerous criminal immigration raids.

Training Grok 3 took Elon 200,000 GPUs and untold billions, and it's ... decent at best? I wrote about AI's commodity problem www.platformer.news/too-many-ai-...
On one hand, it’s legitimately striking that xAI could stand up a data center with 200,000 GPUs and train a decent model in less than two years. On the other hand, it would have been more striking had DeepSeek not accomplished a similar feat at a tiny fraction of the cost, and with worse technology. 

It’s too early to say with any certainty how good Grok’s models are. Leading researcher Andrej Karpathy finds that it passes many of the tests he throws at it, but it also fails almost as many. Even if you accept, though, that this is a state-of-the-art model, not a single person working in AI believes it will stay there for long. Leading AI labs push out new models every few days, and any innovations are almost all quickly copied and absorbed by their rivals.

a good post, but I also recommend quitting absolutely everything for a little while and and then seeing how much information you still get regardless of trying to not know anything. it will be a lot, probably still more than you want or need to know! linksiwouldgchatyou.substack.com/p/how-to-sta...
