Saying things like:<br/><br/>&#34;AI spending is propping up major swaths of the U.S. economy.&#34;<br/><br/>Tends to lend at least some credibility to the industry, even in a critical piece like this, as in &#34;on one hand it&#39;s a dangerous bubble that will one day burst, but at least in the short term it&#39;s propping up a failing economy.&#34;<br/><br/>But really, if you sunk trillions of dollars into *anything* it would have the same effect. You could be spending it on painting rocks and it would have the same effect. Think of the millions of workers you&#39;d need to paint them all, the boon it would represent for paint and brush manufacturers.<br/><br/>Or hey, better yet, spend it on something like infrastructure or schools or health services.

Sure, back in 1953, Cuba was intolerable and Batista a puppet of foreign colonial power for whom no rope could be made short enough, but you&#39;re left wondering: When is the right time to just move on? At some point you have to focus on building an identity based on your own vision rather than the traumas inflicted by your oppressor.<br/><br/>Yes, I am well aware that authoritarian governments the world over use these national traumas as a tool of control. Focus people on the &#39;why&#39; rather than the &#39;how&#39;. Nobody would dare question the &#39;why&#39; without looking like a &#39;them&#39;, but they may be able to get away with questioning the &#39;how&#39; and that&#39;s dangerous.<br/><br/>This is kind of my point after reading through some US media today.

You'll probably die within 30 seconds, but with most airlocks that humans design, it might be a few weeks before your body makes its way out the hatch...)<br/><br/>Anyways, I think I might have a new topic to mull over when it comes to crewed spaceflight: Chains.<br/><br/>In the short term, a link in a chain in motion will continue to follow the path that previous links had traveled.<br/><br/>Links in a chain have very little friction between them, so where a rope will tend to stick out straight, chains will instead orient themselves along gravity gradients.<br/><br/>And, evidently the behavior of chains in null G are absolutely hell for people to predict. (This might be an interesting point in a story.) Our intuition when it comes to removing energy from a chain is to stretch it out... but elastic potential energy (even from a metal chain) will quickly prove that intuition wrong.<br/><br/>Whelp, the ISS has helped to do experiments with chains in null G, thanks to some random Youtuber (Poe's Law warning: I'm fully aware that Steve Mould is more widely known that the astronauts he talks about), the planning done by my favorite astronaut of this era, Samantha Cristoforetti who commanded the ISS for expedition 42, and the playfulness and curiosity of astronaut Don Pettit.

At least at the party level NDP, Greens, Bloc all want action do they not? That&#39;s 60 seats if members vote along party lines. Still incredibly sad that Liberals are not taking this more seriously. CPC you kind of expect it. 2025-06-26T18:19:51+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsqnpu0v2pp9llun8thqk82y6cu2xe0mxu2mdlpwpwx54hwr75nkpgzyp3m7kh9z83r7amte9qytfwycj3zjxrg4j4tynft9tryd9n9aypx5mmc3m8 Most of Ontario is lit up on Environment Canada&#39;s website.

I mean, he could have been suffering from massive internal bleeding as a preexisting condition, yes?<br/><br/>And for what it&#39;s worth, these people may have been cops, but they were off-duty and not acting in any kind of official capacity when this happened.
