Right, there is clear intent and consideration buying votes. Elon should be arrested for this.
Right. @joshkaulwi.bsky.social and/or the county election committees and county prosecutors need to hold Elon accountable. The money for signing the petition might or might not skirt the law, but this even is clearly consideration for voting.
The petition money /might/ (probably not) skirt law because the consideration is for signing a petition. This event, however, he's directly tying to vote status -- which if I remember the Starbuck issue -- is a clear violation of election laws. Does that mean, he might have just cooked his goose?
The men shaved against their will, stripped of their belongings, not given any creature comforts, and force into the overcrowded cages without a trial. This reminds me other images I've seen somewhere.
Back in the News: Schimel Gets Terrible Grades from Bar Association
Generative AI depends on ethical training and use case. Voice assistants for home control is awesome. Generated marketing ads suck. Deep fakes are a definite threat. It is easy to demonize AI, and some of it is evil; but, to dismiss the whole field is shortsighted. 2/2
Depends on use. An AI agent that flags medical scans for potential missed issues, that are re-reviewed by experts is awesome. AI screening resumes will have all the biases the training data had, and so much worse that a "mediocrity machine." 1/2
You mean autocorrect, not spellcheck. Spellcheck you choose the word you meant to type. Auto carrot, on otter Hans Solo, nuns since crazy ice storm salt snow melt.

'Procrastinate' literally means “having been put forward til tomorrow.”
‘pro’ (“forward”) + ‘crastinus’ (“of tomorrow”)
We meant to post this weeks ago.
The other OECD nations also have much more public insurance at play. Medicare spends at or below 3% on administrative costs. Private insurance spends between 15% and 17% on administration costs on average. DOGE wouldn't make healthcare costs lower, it'd make them higher.
Breaking: hyper-gerrymandered NC GOP legislature just passed massive power grab in lame duck session stripping power from Dem gov & AG and giving GOP control over state + county election boards. Snuck into hurricane relief bill. Incredibly undemocratic www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
1. In April 2024, California raised the minimum wage for fast food chains to $20/hour
The industry claimed it would be devastating & require significant job cuts and prices increases
Here is what really happened: workers got a raise, prices went modestly, and the industry continued to add jobs
NdGT makes $150,000 to $200,000 per speaking engagement on top of his $450K annual salary from Hayden Planetarium.
Well, I'm glad you feel inspired to try to create something. However you host it, with your stated goals, however, you'll run into a critical mass that will eventually require large amounts of resources and eventually funding. I'd recommend starting small, and growing overtime.
Except, they are already doing it and getting paid.

Basically, you're talking about a scientific Wikipedia. Which would also need other needed resources. We're talking petabytes of storage, servers, firewalls, back up systems, system administration costs. Legal council. And it's constantly out of date.
Because people need to eat. The task of collecting all the worlds scientific "indisputable facts" and organizing it into a resource is a never ending task that would have to become the life's work of a number of people to be done. Those people need to be able to live. 1/2
Then you wouldn't be looking for a Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe resource that contained "all the facts". The best science commutators can do is keep publishing what we know now in various places and ways. Like Hank and John do with SciShow and Crash Course, or what Wikipedia endeavors to be.
Take Newtonian Physics. It works for calculating the forces of most objects. It's used to design buildings, cars, bridges, etc. But it's "wrong," it breaks down when things get close to the speed of light. Each finding fills in more of the picture where the last person left off.
There aren't indisputable facts. Science is a process. What we know today is likely going to revised tomorrow. We should always act on the information that is currently the consensus of experts, but part of having a scientific/critcal mind is testing your assumptions. 1/2
Understanding what knowledge is legitimate is what scientists spend their whole lives doing. Our most up-to-date information we have are published peer reviewed studies. Biology and chemistry are both Physics. They are taught separately because the humans understand information better categorized.
You mean like academic journals -- which they already create? Or like the hubs for academic journals, like PubMed and LexisNexis? Or do you mean educational material repositories like MIT Opencourseware and Khan Academy? Or like public libraries and public museums?
Not sure we want our scientists setting policy. Scientists are experts on narrow topics. Even Dr. Fauci said that his job was making health recommendations to the presidential administrations he served, it was up to the leaders to balance those health recommendations with other priorities. 2/2
A lot of scientists aren't good teachers. Most scientists aren't politicians. They don't typically want set policy. At best they make recommendations. Some scientists have founded colleges or schools, but administering a school or district or Department of Education is a different skill set. 1/2
