Neither Cartier-Bresson, Banksy nor Cold War Steve could have come up with such an image. Absolutely perfect composition and lighting (even the road signs are perfect)! 😍

Because of the conduct of @TexasGOP and @gop, and that of their surrogates, I am announcing for the first time something I've never done, especially as a straight-ticket Republican voter and three-time Trump voter.
As a protest for their failures and bad-faith conduct, I fully endorse @jamestalarico and will vote for him during the midterms.
I will also vote for @Jon_RosenthalTX to protest @bofrench's racism.
All other votes remain undecided.
Please take note, @TeamTalaricoHQ. Don't hesitate to reach out if I can help.
🚨 BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Ohio mental hospital CONFIRMS James Talarico was discharged from the facility earlier this week
The “flu” thing was a BIG FAT LIE
Following reporting by @SaraGonzalesTX and @CarolineWren, a hospital employee told @RheinAmacher and I that Talarico had in fact been a patient at the Lindner Center of Hope near Cincinnati, Ohio, which specializes in around-the-clock mental health treatment.
While I sympathize with those dealing with mental health crises, this man is CLEARLY not suited to become a US Senator representing over 30 MILLION TEXANS.
The job doesn’t get easier after being elected — it only gets MORE stressful.
And Talarico clearly can’t handle it.
I pray he gets the help he needs, but Texans need a real representative they can rely on.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Lindner Healing Center has refuted this
They have made a statement that James Talarico has never received treatment at Lindner Healing Center x.com/lindnerctrhope…
So great to finally get @abu_zafar on the pod, and (SHOCKINGLY) talking about Dune…
“Jodorowsky’s Dune” (2013) Collector’s Edition is coming soon from @UmbrellaEnt
Read the details of the contents and extras over on @DuneNewsNet

Creative bankrupt and insulting!!!!! #endgame
The good, the bad, and the (really) ugly of Avengers Endgame Encore. Per @Playmaka34 it brought back the feelings but the tampering with the story was maybe not so hot.

Records come and records go. But this is one for the ages.
The preliminary Nino 3.4 sea-surface temperature anomaly is now at a record 3.23°C above the 1991-2020 baseline. This crushes the previous daily record set in 1982 by over 1.14°C.
The Climate 8-ball is looking up.
Thank you @aunder for framing this special item for me from that time @escapehatchpod was written up in the @nytimes by @MikeIsaac for our @dunemovie: Part Two @IMAX 70MM private screening for hundreds of our friends in SF!

This is so well deserved! Listen to our conversation @StephenScarlata all about the BTS of making this documentary!

I’m incredibly humbled to see Jodorowsky’s Dune included at #13 on The Guardian’s list of the 20 Best Making-of Documentaries. To be mentioned alongside so many incredible films about the filmmaking process is a real honor.

This is reductive and does not assume best intent. I think what you are hearing in the discourse is the hope that:
1) Individuals with defensive cybersecurity and DFIR expertise will be included in post-mortems, alongside the young, very intelligent but also very AI-pilled individuals who happen to publicly espouse a narrow band of beliefs on AI harms. My suggestion, which I have made privately to your colleagues, would be to form tiger teams drawn from both DFIR firms and security teams at other AI companies to help investigate these incidents and publish the results under the auspices of the FMF.
2) We will start to hear from the well-respected security professionals at the Big-L Labs and not just the AI researchers, who live in a bit of a personal and professional bubble and have a tendency to dramatically quit instead of working the problem.
3) The big-L Labs will publish self-regulatory rules and follow them. The best way to regulate is just to do it. I would start with draft Level 1, 2 and 3 security architectures for RL/eval environments. This would create targets for NeoClouds and other providers. (1: normal runs, proxied internet access and monitoring. 3: cyber-tuned models, air gapped). Happy to contribute.
This whole episode really blew me away by providing a really clear template of how Democrats should engage with voters: be real, focus on materially helping peoples’ bottom lines (good case for M4A!), and take the fight to the GOP.
I asked @SarahLongwell25 for examples of Democrats she thinks are doing a good job of communicating their message
She listed four
— Pete Buttigieg
— Jon Ossoff
— Zohran Mamdani
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
