How can @MIT and President Kornbluth sit back and allow Kristin Knouse to remain on the MIT faculty when she has been found by a jury of her peers to have falsely accused him of rape, and intentionally destroyed his life and career with the help of co-conspirators in the MIT administration?
How does this not violate MIT’s code of conduct?
How can one continue to trust the research she produces?
Why has MIT not immediately launched a formal investigation to reconsider the removal of @DMSabatini’s tenure and Knouse’s continued inclusion on the faculty?
The evidence from the case is now in the public record. It is a straightforward process for MIT to review the facts.
Justice must be served.
Female MIT scientist climbed into famed professor's bed and 'aggressively' demanded sex... before making #MeToo allegation that almost ruined him after he dumped her

Hiroshima and Nagasaki killed well over 100,000 people, yet no major human rights organization calls it genocide. Why? Because genocide is about intent: a project to eradicate a people. After Japan surrendered, America occupied it, helped rebuild it, and by 1952, it was an ally.
Compare that to Gaza, where “genocide” is now used freely.
Israel has not committed genocide in Gaza. Facilitating the transfer of food, humanitarian aid, and vaccinations is undeniable proof of that.
Changing the definition of genocide to mean “a lot of death in war” dishonors victims of actual genocides and erases the truth about the war against Hamas.

Bravo!!!
The statue of Prometheus is finally finished.
It was cast in Paris, crossed the Atlantic, and was assembled at Starbase. It took us 100 days to go from nothing to this.
People of the West, we have lived through an era devoid of dreams, devoid of destiny.
But the time has come to reclaim our dream of antiquity.
In a few months, we will start building a new city. It will be the most magnificent city in all of history.
After all, the great dream of the West has always been to rebuild Rome.
Come walk beside us in this endeavor. The world is waiting.
Leave it to Israelis to recapture a hijacked plane, subdue the rogue co-pilot, and land the plane safely. Congrats to the heroes who prevented a disaster and saved ~180 people!
Built a simple chrome extension with famous historical figures starring at me in disapproval when I waste time. Shame works remarkably well on me.
Alexandr Wang and @Muse are everywhere on my timeline. You just cannot escape the memes. ABSOLUTE DOMINATION. 🤯 Huge respect for @alexandr_wang, his new clothing line and @finkd!
This is why I don't think the Shopify/Muse partnership is such a huge deal. People like shopping on Shopify DTC brands because it's a form of entertainment. Buying something on Amazon on the other hand is definitely a chore.
Affirm CEO @mlevchin says removing humans from shopping entirely would be "a loss to humanity."
"It's very clear we'll all have agents doing our chores for us."
"I happen to believe that quite a lot of shopping isn't actually a chore. In fact, it's a form of entertainment."
"So human in the loop will not just be a requirement, it will be a loss to humanity if we're not allowed or if we're not participating in some of the shopping choices."
One thing I underestimated when releasing an AI agent for free: how many people immediately try to hack it into doing things it wasn’t built for: coding, phone calls, writing articles... Anything to burn tokens. So don't just build guardrails for safety/security. Build them to protect your token bill!
If an agent does your shopping, Amazon just becomes the pipes shipping goods. No customer relationship. No ad revenue. No impulse buys.
I'm also pro legal immigration, but this is just nuts.

I've been working with @bot to try and fully replace my Linkedin automation tool and have to say it breaks all the time. Will continue to troubleshoot and try to teach grokbot the flow, but this is the issue with AI agents. For some use cases they just don't work as well as trial & tested single purpose tools like @heyreach_io.

I do not support pacing frontier models. If I am going to die at the hands of killer AI, I want it to be American, not Chinese. Buy American, Die American.
More good news like this please! I'm going to start following more accounts that are bullist on humanity. 🚀
Good news you probably haven't heard:
The Great Barrier Reef's five best years of coral cover in the 40-year record are the five most recent.
After decades of predictions of its imminent demise, the reef stubbornly refuses to die.
