anachronist

LLMs can't do most of those things and traffic analysis and other techniques already can but sometimes lack the data due to data sharing limitations.

You don't need GPUs to do traffic analysis you just need more Five Eyes, TIA, room 641A stuff.

I thought I couldn't hate Tony Blair anymore than I already did. 🤷

If we don't hear about it tomorrow and the news cycle quickly moves on it means he was a right winger.

Just like the right winger who murdered three cops in Pennsylvania last week.

Or the Trump assassin..

Want to be clear: the type of "business" he would have with a pimp who's running an underage sex blackmail operation is not good.

Theil might have been there for business...

Theil is their leader. This is especially obvious with Elon. Elon is Theil's dumb errand boy.

Europeans can't even organize an embargo

Ironic given that Luigi just had his terrorism charges dismissed.

It feels like we're near or possibly over the precipice of losing our democracy

I'd just caution our friends to the north and those across the pond that when I look at people like Carney and Starmer I see people as bad or worse than Biden and then I look at who's waiting in the wings..

I'm not a politician or political consultant. These people are supposed to be good at their jobs so they should come up with something, but here goes:

First of all they need to get rid of Jefferies and Schumer. They are both horrible communicators who can't even begin to match Trump's charisma. I'm not sure who in the house, Sanders is the obvious senate leader. Insane they don't have anyone younger and more dynamic but there we are.

Secondly, they need to define a positive vision for the future of this country. The only person doing that right now is Mamdami. They need to embrace his style of politics and contrast themselves with the Republicans as a party of optimism with ideas.

Thirdly, they need to start fighting tactically with Trump. The democrats are currently freaking out because the Republicans are going to force a vote honoring Charlie Kirk. What the democrats should do is

1. table an amendment altering the resolution to honor Kirk, the Hortmans, and all victims of political violence
2. table an amendment to honor the children killed in Colorado and all school shootings this year
3. table an amendment outlawing the granting of military honors to civilians who never served

Force the republicans to vote each of those down, then vote against the resolution saying that the Republicans aren't serious about combating violence and also (by the way) dishonor our troops.

I know military members and point number 3 is a serious fault in Trump's coalition that should be exploited.

They also need to condemn Israel's actions in Gaza understanding that 80 percent of democrats and at least 40 percent of Republicans would be with them.

Fourth they need to go after Trump's Media crackdown using every lever they have. Hold hearings, etc. In particular they need to focus on Sinclair Broadcasting and its nextstar merger.

Finally, they need to have a laser focus on putting together an all-star winning plan going into the midterms, they need to focus on base energy and turnout. They need to start building their ground game now, understanding that Trump will likely take control of the media and social media. They should be putting together alternate grasroots communication networks and figuring out how to get the word out. Again, they need to quit with the machine politics and focus on finding the best candidates who can win elections not whoever's turn it is. They should dust off Howard Dean's old "50 state" strategy and quit trying to force creeply glowies like Slotkin on us.
