Former ICE Employee: "I swore an oath to protect the nation when I signed up. I followed it when I resigned a little over a week ago. I am duty bound to report the legally required training program at the ICE academy is deficient, defective, and broken. I received secretive orders to teach cadets to violate the Constitution"

Read that again.

Ordered. To violate. The Constitution.
This isn’t partisan spin. This is about the rule of law.

Repost please!! 🙏

TL;DR: #Indivisible #SantaFe encountered major obstruction from the City of Santa Fe to get a permit for a closed street march. We have pivoted, will recommend a sidewalk march route. Wherever you live, we’d love to know you support our efforts. One way to do so is to register at https://www.mobilize.us/nokings/event/905571/. 1/

This exchange just happened verbatim:

Me: “Hey Siri, set a reminder to get gas at 6:30”
Siri: “You don’t have an app for that”
Me: “Set an alarm to get gas at 6:30”
Siri: “Okay, I set your alarm to get gas at 6:30”
Me: “That’s the same thing as setting a reminder”
Siri: “Okay, I deleted your alarm. You’ll have to download an app to set a reminder”

OK, so let's say me and some friends started a tech company/consultancy that refused to use "AI", would this encourage you choose us over others?

I did a cover version of Snow Patrol's "Chasing Cars," which I am reliably informed is now a 20-year-old song, but this is impossible, 2006 was just a couple of years ago, right

(Also for fun in this cover you can hear me play guitar, and bass, if you were ever curious what that might sound like)

OpenAI is a menace. Two recent stories make that clearer than ever.

One day you have Sam Altman denigrating humanity to defend AI. The next, WSJ reveals OpenAI could have alerted Canadian police of a potential mass shooter, but refused pressure from employees. That person went on to kill 8 people.
