I had no idea Matthew McConaughey was this fucking stupid. This woman has a few choice words for him.

A California serial rapist who was once sentenced to 124 years in prison is now free after serving roughly two decades behind bars for 86 felony counts, including poisoning, rape, sodomy of unconscious victims. The perpetrator, a great-grandson of cosmetics magnate Max Factor, was released from prison on Oct 11.

I’ll still be here when the “last days of the Anthropocene” diminish & go into the west. If this template insists on pointing towards a hopeless future, I will check LinkedIn in a year to see if his model of drone is superseded yet
Un investigador de Anthropic acaba de decirle a una sala llena de doctorandos que su plan de carrera ya no existe. La charla se titula "El fin del Antropoceno" y los datos son brutales: → El cómputo para entrenar modelos se multiplicó por 10 millones en la última década → La duración de las tareas que una IA completa sola se duplica cada pocos meses → Desde hace 7 meses los modelos resuelven problemas abiertos de Erdős que los matemáticos no habían logrado cerrar → En San Francisco, tener "timelines largos" significa pensar que la AGI llega en 10 años Su proyección: el cómputo de 2030 será 10.000 veces mayor que el de 2025. Todavía estamos al principio de la exponencial. Sus 3 consejos para los estudiantes: 1. Usa la IA cada día. Si estás sobre la exponencial, nunca te quedas atrás de ella. 2. Elige proyectos que mejoren cuando el cómputo escala. El resto quedará resuelto antes de que los termines. 3. Deja de planificar tu carrera como si fuera estable. La opción segura ya no compra seguridad, ya no existe. Y una frase que resume todo: "Escribir es pensar. Si externalizas tu escritura, externalizas tu pensamiento." La charla completa aquí ⬇️

These are not transfers from the US, but from other countries. The US is now actively sabotaging Ukrainian defense of civilians.
Breaking news: The Trump administration has not approved the transfer of interceptor missiles to Ukraine that are needed to protect the country from Russian attacks, officials said, a delay that comes as President Trump has embraced Russia in recent weeks. wapo.st/4yCb7T7

How jealousy, resentment and tabloid attacks turned a job I loved into something I needed to escape — and why I’m finally willing to engage with it again. For this week’s OFF SCRIPT I wrote about the real reason I left the royal beat: api.omarshehata.me/substack-…

Seems important.
Theranos whistleblower Tyler Shultz says the blood testing machine featured in Nathan Fielder’s Elizabeth Holmes documentary, “You Can See Everything,” was never completed or used on patients, arguing that the device shown in the film was not the same one that produced inaccurate medical results and contributed to the company’s downfall.

Hats off to @WIRED for this candid journalistic self-examination. The last two paragraphs are a gut punch. RIP Joe Rago, whom I interviewed during the reporting and writing of Bad Blood. apple.news/AwgktUs6RRP2bV0Nj…

Did Elizabeth Holmes coming after me and my sources with everything she had and threatening to sue us out of existence bias me? Yes.
I am a big fan of you, don’t get me wrong. but My question is do you think you have any bias as a result of your experience as a journalist in this case?

Political appointees at the Department of Homeland Security wanted CISA, an agency that protects election systems, to acquire and hack a voting machine, which shocked staffers. “This goes against everything CISA represents,” a former official said. propublica.org/article/cisa-…

Burn in hell, Trump.
This is a baby killed in a baby stroller by russian monsters in broad daylight‼️ Russia struck the central park in Nova Vodolaha, Kharkiv region, with a jet-powered drone while it was packed with people and families. They killed at least 3, a baby and two women, and injured at least 14 more.

So Russia is going all out this time, trying to make France appear unlivable to throw the election to Le Pen.
« Selon des sources policières et du renseignement territorial, la mobilisation des casseurs a également été suscitée, accentuée, accélérée ou instrumentalisée par des influenceurs et des blogueurs soutenus ou viralisés par des puissances étrangères. L’Iran, l’Algérie et la Russie sont notamment citées par la presse et par un ancien Premier ministre et un ministre de l’intérieur que j’ai interrogés ».

Given how disturbed my sleep has been the past few nights, I doubt I’ll get a good night’s sleep until after the midterms are over. I think it’s 15 days and counting. IF YOU ARE AMERICAN, VOTE.

We used "slave" because what I wanted to call him can't make it past the lawyers.
Trump is Putin's slave.
