2026 US Midterms Megathread 🇺🇸 Final Primaries 09-01 thru 09-15
They basically did this already. At the university I work at, NSF grants were frozen until a representative of the university had to confirm, in writing, that there was "no DEI" and no divestments from Israel. If the administration felt the university lied, then the representative that signed the dotted line would be held criminally responsible. They might just be doubling down or making this type of policy more permanent. But my impression was that this was effectively already happening based on conversations I've had.

Update - 2028 hopeful Jon Ossoff condemns Hasan Piker for criticizing Zionism
In the very least, I’m hoping Ossoff coming out against Hassan makes Hassan hush about Ossoff being “promising” for 2028.

How to ethically cheat?
There is no way to ethically cheat, just like there is no way to ethically betray somebody. The fact that you are so allergic to this basic truth—instead opting to dismiss it as some form of kink shaming—reveals you are not suited for any type of romantic relationship, monogamous or otherwise. Go to therapy. Work to better understand yourself, then reassess.

3 out of 4 Americans now oppose data centers, hate driven by association with AI
This is argument is extremely pedantic. I’m a computer scientist that actively publishes AI research. It’s obvious what most people mean by “AI”. I don’t trip over myself when people espouse hatred for AI and rush to correct them that any algorithm can technically be classified as AI. In most settings, it’s obvious that people are referring to the features that are being shoved in our faces nonstop—the same features and brain dead investment that are leading to skyrocketing energy prices across the country. It’s clear people are not referring to the application of deep generative models for the discovery of materials for carbon capture. Don’t be difficult. It’s obvious what people mean.

I will never understand why people who actively detest Hassan Piker are so obsessed with him. Like, WHY did Gail give a shocked side-eye because Nixon does not know a Twitch Streamer..? It's all so unserious.
