⚠️ Update: It has now been 24 hours since #Afghanistan imposed a national internet blackout, cutting off residents from the rest of the world; the ongoing measure marks the Taliban's return to conservative values it espoused a quarter of a century ago limiting basic freedoms

Unfortunately it's too late. Sure there will be some units built, but not many and not enough. -ULA has ruined the economics of developing rental housing in LA. -The average person can't conceive how badly broken and incompetent DWP is. Our example: We're sitting on a…

Joanne Chesimard didn’t “fight for justice.” She murdered New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster in cold blood, then fled to Cuba to escape accountability. The FBI never stopped calling her what she was: a terrorist. Mourning her is spitting on the badge and the blood of every…

I'm about to do something I think I've never done before, which is assert every bit of whatever authority I have as the person who discovered and wrote down the rules of open source. After ten years of drama and idiocy, lots of people other than me are now willing to say in…

In many states, the union protections are so strong, the teachers will push back against the additional workload of teaching phonics-based reading. Oakland unified was doing it for their minority-majority, high at-risk population and the union bargained against it, won, and…

We've spent 30+ years and infinite money on injecting fashionable nonsense into school curricula, based on nothing but the vibes of the Ed school professoriate, and the incontrovertible empirical evidence from Mississippi proves what a total fucking waste all of it was

This is incredibly exciting. Poor kids aren't dumb. Black kids aren't dumb. Teach phonics. Teach teachers how to teach phonics and abandon hippy dippy trends, and hold them accountable.

H1-Bs are touted as a way for American companies to bring in the “best and the brightest” for positions Americans supposedly cannot fill. The reality is much different. The vast majority of H1-B approvals are for entry and lower-level jobs that can absolutely be filled by…

@memeticsisyphus My psychology teacher in high school went on a rant once that I didn’t fully appreciate at the time He explained that regardless of evidence, psychologists *want* nurture to be more important than nature, because it makes us all believe that we can control more things than we do

This is outrageous. Some U.S. companies are using H-1B visas to staff their DEI offices. I've reviewed numerous examples of hospitals, universities and other employers hiring foreign H-1B workers as DEI bureaucrats. I'm urging USCIS to work with us to fix this. 🧵

I love to drive, especially my Tesla. And yesterday I had a great drive until I hit a wall of traffic. I let FSD take over for 10 minutes while I sat back and relaxed. When traffic cleared, I grabbed the wheel and resumed driving. FSD isn’t about giving up control. It’s about…

Nobody knew about Johnny Carson’s political views because he thought his job was to make all Americans laugh, not preach about politics. That’s why he was the most popular late-night host ever. America desperately needs another Carson.
