AI climate models undershoot extreme heat because they’re trained on data from when it was colder.

Grandma jailed after AI error linked her to crime in state she never visited: lawyer The charges were later dismissed after bank records showed she was in Tennessee at the time

If only a college professor could condescendingly yell at her that AI is useful, I bet she’d feel so much better about all this

President Donald Trump has blamed the recent attacks on the “genetics” of the suspects. “They’re sick people, and a lot of them were let in here. They shouldn’t have been let in. Others are just bad. They go bad. Something wrong. There’s something wrong there. The genetics are not exactly— they’re not exactly your genetic," Trump said in an interview with Brian Kilmeade that aired Friday on Fox Radio.

Rep. Randy Fine, R-Fla., who had already faced backlash for an anti-Muslim post last month, wrote on X Thursday: “We need more Islamophobia, not less. Fear of Islam is rational.” Rep. Andy Ogles, R-Tenn., said in a series of posts on Thursday that no country is “freer and safer because Muslims moved there,” and he called “immigration” a “national security threat.” Earlier this week, he wrote that “Muslims don’t belong in American society.” Also on Thursday, Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, called for “No more Muslims immigrating to America." And Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., shared a post featuring a side-by-side photo of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who is Muslim.

Google News search for the story, showing coverage from NBC and a bunch of smaller outlets

Is NBC really the only major news outlet covering this overtly anti-Muslim (and eugenicist) rhetoric from Trump and his Congressional cronies?

Oh my lord. Well, I’ll just say … it doesn’t affect me personally at this point, but if it did, it wouldn’t anymore after this if you get my drift.

It'll be fine, said Trump. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

one of the most radicalising things about living through these radical times is just how bad these men are at basic business. every AI grifter can see the production savings, but can't take one more step and see there is zero audience for this shit.

Donald J. Trump @realDonald Trump Iran had plans of taking over the entire Middle East, and completely obliterating Israel. JUST LIKE IRAN ITSELF, THOSE PLANS ARE NOW DEAD! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Annihilatory rage is a feature of malignant narcissism—and a dangerous one in a man with the capacity to launch nuclear weapons.

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

I think we need a word for "other person on the Internet is SO WRONG that I need to go get my laptop because a full keyboard is necessary to explain it in enough detail."

Because I just experienced that.

Part of me is tempted to think that Hegseth doesn't know what "No Quarter" meant given... everything. But considering he personally lobbied Trump to pardon men accusded of war crimes... well...

Arlington Cemetery website drops links for Black, Hispanic, and women veterans The cemetery website unpublished links to lists of notable graves, walking tours and other material about Black, Hispanic and women veterans.

And this too. They are literally white washing history. Arlington Cemetery website drops links for Black, Hispanic, and women veterans taskandpurpose.com/news/arlingt...

“The memo also bars reporters from requesting public records through the Freedom of Information Act…”

It’s basically an open secret at this point. When fascists want the mainstream to frame ‘illegal immigration’ as the problem what they’re doing is getting us used to questioning all non-white immigration.

Yet another example of his making everything he says sound like sexual assault.

Obvious attack on the First Amendment, and also--importantly--an attack on the second amendment

One asshole did a stupid thing, and the completely legal firearms owned by other protesters became evidence of domestic terrorism

"'Do those Christians who bear grave responsibility in armed conflicts have the humility and courage to make a serious examination of conscience and to go to confession?' the pope asked in a speech to priests."

Specializing in access journalism will not protect you from becoming a target of MAGA repression

The day begins with a former Fox host turned Trump administration official ranting at the media over his own failings and ends with a former Fox host turned Trump administration official ranting at a judge over her own failings.

lol lmao even

Raging at Media, Pete Hegseth Just Said the Quiet Part Out Loud He wants “patriotic” coverage of the Iran War. He doesn’t understand: in a democracy, coverage that asks difficult questions of the government is itself “patriotic.”

Pete Hegseth wants to live in a world in which the US military can drop bombs on scores of children and face no serious media scrutiny for it. His vile claim that he can't wait for David Ellison to run CNN shows he pines for oligarchic control of media.

Hegseth ignored military officials when he slashed offices that limit risk to civilians The Defense secretary’s decision to cut offices that mitigate civilian harm faces renewed attention as the Pentagon investigates a strike that killed hundreds of Iranian children.

EXCLUSIVE: Military leaders warned Hegseth not to gut the offices that limit risk to civilians. He ignored them.

The decision faces renewed attention as the Pentagon investigates a strike on an Iranian girls’ school that killed hundreds of children.

I thought you would appreciate some culture

Trump 3/9/2026: "Iran also has some Tomahawks…A Tomahawk is very generic."

Trump 3/13/2026: "Nobody has the technology or weapons that we have…We have the Tomahawks."

The Rose and Jack Trump/Epstein statue with the Capitol Dome in the background

The Rose and Jack Trump/Epstein's statue with a crowd surrounding it (bigger than appears) and the DoL in the background, menacing Trump propaganda banner and all

The plaque next on the statue that reads: "The King Of The World The tragic love story between Jack and Rose was built on luxurious travel, raucous parties, and secret nude sketches. This monument honors the bond between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, a friendship seemingly built on luxurious travel, raucous parties and secret nude sketches"

Side view of the Rose and Jack Trump/Epstein statue with people taking pictures, a large number of blue flags in the foreground. The blue flags are meant to represent deaths due to colorectal cancer

Went to see some Important Art

(Note: the blue flags are in honor of victims of colorectal cancer which takes it all to a new level)

This is a spectacular piece of writing.

"Musk has redeployed Ashok Elluswamy, head of AI software at Tesla, to reboot the Macrohard effort"

BRING ME THE CARNEGIE MELLON GRAD WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHAT AN OPERATIONAL DESIGN DOMAIN IS, THAT WILL GET THIS BACK ON TRACK

"Toby Pohlen, a former DeepMind researcher, was put in charge of the “Macrohard” project to build digital agents that Musk said could replicate entire software companies. Musk said it was the “most important” drive at the company... Pohlen left 16 days later."
