It's always sad when someone you admire espouses positions you find crazy, stupid or offensive. Fortunately, I've always considered Millar a talentless, third-rate Frank Miller wannabe and all around hack, so I'm pretty cool with this.
Mark Millar outing himself as a complete nutter (not a terribly surprising revelation for a lot of us) seems like a fantastic time to bring up this gem from Grant Morrison: pic.twitter.com/iNcyPJtSpO

Whereby a bunch of unvaccinated MAGAs describe the symptoms of Long COVID without quite making the connection.

Well, was #Covid a hoax created by Big Pharma?
God replies; “Covid was real & vaccines saved millions”
Conspiracy theorist; “Damn this thing goes higher up than I thought”
How about some politics?

The fundamental flaw of the run-to-the-right-of-Trump strategy.
Between his new FL law and this new natl policy proposal, DeSantis has embraced the most extreme immigration/border positions of any major R in decades.

Like his 6 week abortion ban this stuff is deeply unpopular outside MAGA bubble, and is going to further degrade GOP brand. https://t.co/rVeXvbZR2x
Coming from the Bible-belt, MAGA's apocalyptic tendencies have long been on my radar.

Speaking as a Watergate historian, there’s nowhere on thousands of hours of Nixon tapes where Nixon makes any comment as clear, as clearly illegal, and as clearly self-aware as this Trump tape. https://t.co/JFqyfcQb8g

Yeah, that Turtledove.
This, btw, is the basic message of fascism. Return with us now to the golden days of yesteryear, when life was beautiful all the time--if you weren't black or gay or Jewish or anything else the powers that be didn't like.

Good point from Taleb.
About nothing in history has been more transformative than the automobile. Yet nothing would have bankrupted you more effectively than an investment in the auto industry.

Sad Sacks and friends
The account he’s talking about was claiming a Russian attack was actually a Ukrainian attack on Ukraine and had killed a lot Nato soldiers. Purportedly an account from Texas. Sacks jumped on board and now going with just asking questions. Sad. https://t.co/Ssbn6onHhT

Never cared for the show, but I have to admit this is a great tweet.
‘Later that day I started to wonder..are all men like Prigozhin..making big spectacular gestures but then refusing to commit at the pivotal moment? Was I, like Putin, running scared from true love? Was Miranda my Lukashenka, trying to pick up the pieces of my bad choices in men?’ pic.twitter.com/IYxNt86hMD

"Do LLM understand?" is a question that yields passionate answers.
— Grady Booch (@Grady_Booch) June 27, 2023
As for me and my house: no, LLMs do not reason and in fact are architectural incapable of reasoning.
Let's unpack that.
This I found useful https://t.co/xpBsl8nfA1 wherein the author observes "The enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, but rather the illusion of knowledge; the feeling of understanding."
