I have a LinkedIn profile. I have actually received 3 job offers and 2 jobs from it over the last 10 years, thus I use to be polite to recruiters. Now my hobby is telling them ‘that sounds horrible, good luck’.

At what point in history did humans require patented medicine to be healthy?

It is not a one growing season problem. It is a buildup of nitrates going back to the 1950s when post war industrial farming really took off. There are fair easy mitigation practices we could employ but no one is incentivize to enact them.

This is so real. Happening in companies and organizations all over right now. Slow and steady wins the race.

American shows up in a disco suit and his own homemade Flock safety camera that he made in his garage to the Lee’s Summit, Missouri City Council meeting He’s exposing how the city spent $909,000 on only 54 Flock cameras the cameras remain property of Flock. Even if the contract runs its course and they cancel, Flock will keep the cameras despite paying nearly a million dollars for them It’s true I looked into the flock contracts and they maintain all rights and ownership over the cameras, once installed the city can’t even move the location of the cameras or remove them - Flock hardware “is owned and shall remain the exclusive property of Flock.” - “Title to any Flock Hardware shall not pass to [the city].” A The city may not remove, move or take possession of the units - At the end of the term, Flock removes the cameras The city is leasing the cameras and using the software…. This sounds like one of the biggest ripoffs to taxpayers in history That’s $16,833 per camera over the 5 year contract

Rough estimate based on the reported 130 billion output tokens (plus similar inputs) over 88 hours with ~10k agents: using 1-10 J/token for frontier reasoning models plus PUE overhead puts total energy around 100-1000 MWh. The $15M customer cost is mostly hardware time, not electricity.

Yeah viruses are total bullshit. I can say that because I’ve looked into how they observe them and how they’ve never showed any causal relationship whatsoever to any illness. No expertise required. That is total and complete bullshit

Also helps if DARPA folks visit your garage, or at least stop by the house on occasion.

Well he did become a great narrator after he died, so that makes sense.

ISLAMIC TAKEOVER in IOWA SCHOOLS A source sent me photos showing a display inside Weber Elementary School (@IowaCitySchools) in Iowa, where signs are translated in Arabic. I'm told that other signs, including door and parking signs, are also written in Arabic. Why is this in our schools?!
