“China has much more to gain from resumed testing than we do,” said Dr.[Siegfried] Hecker, the former Los Alamos director. “It would open the door for others to test and reignite an arms race to the peril of the entire world. We shouldn’t go there.” This is the world Trump and his enablers want.

Oh, it already is. Same thing happened with "Blockchain." Lots of people were talking about "how do we integrate with the blockchain?" And then I'd ask, "for what?" Nobody seemed to have a good answer for that.

What part of the straight line from Taft to Trump wasn't telegraphed by the GOP generations ago? Yeah, you didn't pay attention to Ike deporting Americans or all the fun with newt, but didn't you read the history books before they burned them?

Best part of climate change is the exposure of government corruption by putting under stress systems that have rotted from within. (c.f. Arab Spring, etc.)

Programming ain't about automating the routine path but instead handling the exceptions and Automated Interpolation is the least efficient means of sensibly dealing with the abnormal. Hence every AI project is all about the delusions of adequacy from getting the easy stuff done.

Fun fact, the one element of "broken windows" that has legs is that public retreat from communal spaces because they are unpleasant reinforces that erosion. The biggest problem is that police operating under this theory inevitably serve as their own "broken window" themselves

Don’t ever let anyone tell you that a huge part of being an academic isn’t having meetings about the formation of committees that have meetings to report to other committees in meetings. But also task forces and initiatives, with meetings to report to committees.

Media Matters has a very high ROI - so high that two Republican AGs are suing it, ostensibly for "fraud" in how it covers Elon Musk, ideally to expose its internal operations and shut it down. A good case study in the perennial "liberal donors get bored and don't build" story.

A key point in this piece can be applied more generally: collective punishment or collective blame is inherently racist or antisemitic. We can't blame all Arabs or Muslims for Islamist terrorism, we can't blame all Jews for Israel's policies. We can blame organizations for their stances
