Tesla sued after Austin shooting suspect allegedly assaulted co-worker A 65-year-old woman says the automaker ignored warning signs before Ndiaga Diagne, the suspect in Sunday’s mass shooting, assaulted her. She sued Thursday.

the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year

the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter

B@stards are threatening ICE detainees with the WRAP. If you haven't read about it, the WRAP is a tool of torture.

"If you think Claude Code is a better social scientist than you, then you’re probably right. But that means, at some point, you stopped trying to answer interesting/puzzling questions and started trying to win the publish-the-most-articles race. That isn’t a game worth saving."

The sea is higher than we thought and millions more are at risk, study finds A new study in the journal Nature says most sea level rise research may have underestimated coastal water heights by an average of 1 foot or about 30 centimeters.

To think of it, the people who don't want more immigrants coming to their countries should really be the biggest advocates for addressing climate change. But nope. They just want to let people die where they are.

It is kind of suspicious that the only people I see actively defending LLMs as morally neutral seem to have very specific career incentives to do so. Especially in the academy!

Trump Bought Netflix Debt Amid Paramount's Fight for Warner Bros. β€” The Hollywood Reporter New financial disclosures released Wednesday show that the President acquired Netflix bonds as Paramount was trying to pry WBD away from the streaming giant.

Netflix had to submit an advanced look at its books to DOJ for merger approval.

If any of β€œTrump’s lawyers” are funneling discovery intel to the White House, then the antitrust division is nothing more than an insider trading network.

I don't use them, but when I see other people who do use them post citations, I'm still seeing citations being at least 40% hallucinated. I'm not sure which slop machine they used

Long COVID isn’t rare.

According to the WHO, about 15 in 100 people still have symptoms 12 months after COVID-19 infection.

Prevent infection. Prevent reinfection. Protect your health.

I am so sick of these dude bros who don't give a fuck about the consequences of their actions

Sure, have a slop machine write a blog post for you marketing the use of slop machines for free. Who cares how much energy it took, or water, or how it impacts vulnerable people if it made you look edgy

Trump doesn't have a plan for this other than swinging his dick around. Hegseth's plan is to kill as many Muslims as he can because he's a neocrusading monster. Huckabee's plan is to end the world for Jesus. There are plans, they're just not military plans, war plans, strategic or tactical plans.
