“People talk about how much energy it takes to train an AI model – but it also takes a lot of energy to train a human. It takes about 20 years of life – and all the food you consume during that time – before you become smart.” Sam Altman

As a swede, I hope Sweden conservatives can skip right to this part.
Florida Republicans have been banging the socialist drum so long that even a GOP official is begging colleagues to lay off the "lazy scare tactics."
The Florida GOP's red scare is losing steam
“You're telling me that a former Republican congressman and Republican lobbyist is now a socialist?”

1. This New York Post cover: “Thousands of 9/11 families demand Mamdani be banned from 25th-Anniversary” is a brazen lie.

When you're visiting your home town and mum gives you advice on alternative routes in case there is "heavy traffic". At 10am. During vacation time. And it's basically just one intersection between you and the freeway. And you just know that:

Talarico: Here's what real men don't do. They don't lie and cheat their way through life. They don't sell their soul to the highest bidder. Real men serve others, weak men serve themselves. So I welcome this debate. I don't think Paxton or Cruz are in a position to tell anyone what a real man is.

Hmm. Why don't they cover up the ballroom build site? I would think that the structure underneath isn't something you want other nations satellites to see.
Listen, I was born poor and rural. My high school mascot was a literal hillbilly. I understand white trash culture.
I can say with complete confidence that this is white trash culture.

Makes sense. They handed out diplomas ordered by grades. The two who had lower grades than Trump called in sick on the day.
Historians are never going to have to question whether what Trump says is true or not it's simply going to come down to how to edit the 1,000s of lies down to some of the most important.
