Who Counts? Trump Poised To Try To Remove Noncitizens From Census
Following a years-long surge in illegal immigration, the Trump administration is poised to challenge a longstanding but legally fraught practice: counting illegal aliens in the U.S. census.
This is one of those bullshit issues that is only decided on who benefits, not whether or not it’s right.
NYT: Why Does Every Commercial for A.I. Think You’re a Moron?
Ads for consumer A.I. are struggling to imagine how the product could improve your day — unless you’re a barely functioning idiot.
I rarely see a commercial, so wonder how often people see advertising for consumer A.I.. The article doesn’t say. Running the commercials during episodes of Murderbot or The Black Mirror might be a bad idea.

It’s 93o outside, so I’m staying in and catching up on some housecleaning. Sparky wanted to keep me company, but him walking on wet floors wasn’t helping. He doesn’t fully trust the vacuum cleaner. Since I was screwing up his afternoon, he decided to just go to bed until I settled down.
Or maybe Sparky didn’t like what I was listening to on Spotify.
For the first time ever, Sparky got to chase a rabbit by looking where I was pointing.
After reading about the US military bombing of the Iranian nuclear facilities, it feels like Trump makes everything seem so easy. Put America first, and just do it. I don’t know what’s going to happen, but it seems like the world is better off.
