Examples that Danish is the most confusing language for English speakers:

In Denmark, when washing machines are done, their displays write, "Slut!", which means "Finished".

When someone enters an elevator, the display changes to "I fart", which means "On the move".

Tourists have difficulty finding a nice WC, because the signs often say "Bad toilet", meaning "Bathroom and toilet".

In lobbies with multiple elevators, one sign may say, "Gods elevator", which means "Freight elevator".

Zohran Mamdani had +38 approval upon his election. In under 2 months he’s:
•Secured universal childcare
•Paid New Yorkers $30/hour & survived a blizzard without disruption
•Remained wholly honest about the massive budget crisis NYC faces
•Demanded Hochul tax billionaires instead of working people
•Got Trump to commit $12B to NYC for affordable housing, and
•Did it ALL without corporate money

His approval is now +48.

Almost like working people love public servants who fight for working people.🤯

If you replace a junior with #LLM and make the senior review output, the reviewer is now scanning for rare but catastrophic errors scattered across a much larger output surface due to LLM "productivity."

That's a cognitively brutal task.

Humans are terrible at sustained vigilance for rare events in high-volume streams. Aviation, nuclear, radiology all have extensive literature on exactly this failure mode.

I propose any productivity gains will be consumed by false negative review failures.

my wife said something about Epstein that is completely correct:

it isn't that he's the epicentre of everything bad in the world. it's that he's the only rich fucker's texts we're being allowed to read.

all of the world's billionaires are, evidently, in a death-rape-cult.

Jonathan Ross—the ICE fascist who killed Renee Good—is an 18-year ICE veteran, firearms instructor, & active shooter trainer.

The people claiming "ICE needs more training" are missing the point. Ross's 2 DECADES of training IS what led him to execute Good. ICE Training IS the problem. More money for more ICE training results in more trained killers.

The problem with fascists isn't that they're poorly trained, it's that they're fascists. You don't train fascists, you abolish them. Abolish ICE.
