Wow: JD Vance is apparently skiing in Vermont this weekend and the locals aren’t having it. Thousands have lined the streets in protest.

The inflection point for our democracy was Biden’s decision to run again. After that moment we were completely screwed.

We’re basically seeing this again. OpenAI with Sam Altman is so good at raising capital (incl. now from Softbank) that it's covering up the company’s technical & commercial weaknesses. See also this excellent @AINowInstitute report from @bcmerchant. 23/ ainowinstitute.org/general/a…

Now on top of the negative externalities on people’s power, water, air, and global climate, we have another: the ceding of more & more control over critical energy & water infrastructure to Silicon Valley. I wrote about this last week in @TheAtlantic. 14/ theatlantic.com/technology/a…

…they extend the lives of gas & coal plants, worsening air quality (per @washingtonpost’s @evanhalper) - not just because fossil fuels are the fastest way to surge energy supply but because 24/7 facilities can't run solely on intermittent renewables. 9/ washingtonpost.com/business/…

…they take up drinking water - yes, drinking water, because of the water quality required to cool these facilities - which threatens to hike water prices for families… 8/ theatlantic.com/technology/a…

Many journalists have written extensively about those externalities. When these massive data centers come to town, they distort power supplies (per @business’s @Leonardonclt, @naurtorious, @andretartar)… 7/ bloomberg.com/graphics/2024-…

JLG is kind enough to call me this book's doula, which is generous. It would be more accurate to say I helped rehome this book from a spot in the boonies where it was being neglected and abused, to a loving home in Philadelphia. And 50% off today.
I just started reading CAPTIVE CITIES, and it is an absolute banger. Nobody makes me think harder than Jennie Lightweis-Goff. 50% off today. pennpress.org/9781512826685/…

they aren’t unusual; 80% of parents who send their kids to college basically agree. every student we convince to even minor in a humanities subject is a victory over reagan, clinton, and lead poisoning
