Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying…

“Surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got”

Fictional pizza chain Pizza Hut? ... Did I switch timelines?

Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.

I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.

Raid polymarket’s offices, seize their files, find out who these traitors are, and put them in prison.

They’re endangering the troops with this shit.

In this in-depth interview Billie Jean Sweeney — a former editor at The New York Times — details how the paper shifted towards openly promoting anti-trans hatred, why this was directed from the very top, how some staff pushed back and the immense damage done by the NYT legitimizing bigotry.

And you know, you can extend from this to a real important corallary to "Everyone is 12 Now" theory is "There has been a generation-long project to keep people 12."

Conservative news and opinon outlets, regressive mass audience entertainment products, etc. all propagandize a chilidish worldview.

Fuck

Time to sift through all the output of those last few runs!

Democrats should be protesting en masse and force them to eject the whole group. Join Al Green in his righteous rage.

Brianna Tucker @BriannaATucker The top @PostGuild donation to laid off workers is $10,000 from a donor named Dorothy Gilliam. If that's the Dorothy many of us are familiar with — who in 1961 was the first Black female reporter at The Washington Post — it's profoundly bittersweet: Anonymous $100 • Recent donation Dorothy Gilliam $10,000 • Top donation Linda McConnell $200•14 d 7:28 PM • Feb 24, 2026 • 1,669 Views

@briannatucker.bsky.social, former national politics breaking news reporter for the Washington Post, made this observation on X tonight.

The largest contribution to the union's fund for laid off Post staff came from the Post's first Black woman reporter.

Wow, this is so counterintuitive to me. 3-d printing is prototyping in my head, the part you do before making the scalable mass production version.

The other day I hit a taco bell drive thru and got a single taco supreme for the first time in years and it was that Anton Ego moment from Ratatouille, except instead of my mom's kitchen it was eating with my high school friends at off-campus lunch hour.

OK, so the tariffs are illegal, what happens next? Do we get our money back?

Yikes

The best movie set out a clear plan and Disney scrapped it because it was too ambitious for them.

Lord I have seen what you have done for others and I want that for myself

No, don't do that, you eat it.

Crap, some billionaire is going to buy moderna's patents for pennies on the dollar and then RFK will take his boot off their neck, and the billionaire will make the vaccines only available for the rich.

If Moderna is no longer bringing vaccine trials for Epstein-Barr virus (good evidence that EB causes Multiple Sclerosis), herpes, and shingles because of Trump appointees, I want prison time for those appointees.

This might be dooming millions to disease they don’t have to experience.
