This is honestly one of the most shocking interviews @ezraklein has ever done. The level of hubris and arrogance is astonishing. And Huang’s opposition to regulation is basically “there are enough regulations and also why would a company ever release a dangerous product???” Um guys we’re not ok

I came to the US on an H-1B almost 20 years ago after studying Electrical Engineering at Waterloo. Became US citizen in 2010 under EB-1A. In the last decade I’ve hired over 1,000 Americans and shipped products used by more than a million people. Pretty bummed to learn the program was a scam!

I spoke with Kara Swisher about why chatbots aren’t just competing for our time—they are becoming objects of emotional attachment. Our conversation explored the appeal and risks of friction-free relationships and the importance of boredom and vulnerability in our development. We even got into the allure and dangers of grieftech—creating an avatar of you for future generations or creating a chatbot of someone you have lost! Talking with Kara is an adventure! piped.video/watch?v=6yYvWFj8…

Florida can’t trust a corrupt former drug dealer who sold dope to children.

Former utility lobbyist Mike Lawler is looking out for his Big Tech backers, and the proof is in the five data centers that have opened in Rockland County on his watch, with three more on the way. Mike has raked in hundreds of thousands from Big Tech, then voted to give these data center developers $80 billion in tax breaks and voted to ease restrictions on building data centers. Unlike Mike, I support a data center moratorium. In Congress, I’ll ensure these companies don't pass utility costs onto families, hurt our environment, or exploit our communities.

India produced 11% of the world’s tomatoes in 2022–24, but accounted for just 0.2% of processed tomato exports by volume. Across many crops, agricultural abundance has not translated into processing strength. What needs to change? 1/8

The launch of Hyphen, a platform that presents contemporary writing in Indian languages to the world, is a landmark event! A journal of this kind is long overdue and I am thrilled that @VivekShanbhag0 has made it happen. Subscribe, subscribe, subscribe!!! the-hyphen.in/

I’m sorry, it’s a fun product, but if you hand all your data to Muse and don’t expect it to be used for the most invasive things imaginable you are Charlie Brown with the football and you deserve whatever happens to you.

“So you picked NPR because it didn’t seem popular” 😭 the kids will humble us every time

They all train on your work. Except Venice.

New Yorkers, a storm is arriving today. Don't travel if you don't have to. Never drive or walk through floodwater. Call 911 if you are in danger, and report nonemergency issues to 311. Look out for one another and stay safe.

How do you get $3.5 billion raised in just 90 minutes? Well, one source casually pledged $800 million. Here’s how the @GPforEducation replenishment “harambee” in New York went down

New media is insider media, and the traditional press that founders/investors still care about is prestige media like the WSJ and NYT - “look mom, I made it”

This is such a smart way to potentially seed @MetOpera with a new, younger generation of fans. These storied institutions need to connect with new audiences to survive.

Boston and the Birth of British India Far too often, we imagine Britain's first and second empires in America and India as two separate stories. Yet colonial India and America were deeply entangled.
