Domestic terrorists at work...

The denial. The Schultz was funny.

OMG. This really is the beginning of the end. Grok will join Google's generative AI engine in operating inside the Pentagon network, as part of a broader push to feed as much of the military's data as possible into the developing technology. Seriously, we're doomed.

I continue to advocate for my daughter to get ahead of the curve in using AI for project management. I use it every day in my work and find it invaluable.

Good plan. I think it's a poor person who does not enjoy their own company when alone. I know I do.

I saw this clip. Wow.

@wtg said in Ein Volk, Ein Reich: Just a salute [image: 23elon-salute-1-fbvg-videoSixteenByNineJumbo1600-v2.jpg] This is a true expression of the nature of his apartied South African fascism.

I learned a few days ago my sister-in-law, a public school librarian, has taken on an after school assignment teaching students English in preparation for college. She told me her assignment is difficult because the district is poor and the students she's teaching aren't starting at expectable grade level English skills. I also learned she has her PhD and one of her specialties is designing course instruction. I have no doubt she'll do an excellent job. My guess would be, generally, even without having been a teacher, that the more a teacher expects, and the more rigorous a teacher is, at any grade level, the better the result will be. For my part, I told her about my experiences in grades 11- 16, she kindly compared me to my sister (not quite warranted in all humility) and of course I said thank you. Teaching, tutoring, and mentoring are essential. I myself would probably sound like and have the communication skills of a caveman it hadn't been for my luck in having a mother who taught me how to read and write and great teachers who had the resourses to do their jobs.

Made this the other night. It's always a stretch to try to make boring boneless chix taste interesting. I marinated it all day and sauteed it in with the marinade instead of grilling. Delicious. https://thespiceway.com/blogs/recipes/grilled-chicken-breasts-with-herbes-de-provence-marinade

I recently purchased a carbon steel pan hoping for natural nonstick properties and light weight. I mostly use it for the boy’s scrambled eggs. I like it but it has a ways to go to become as nonstick as I’d like.

@Bernard said in New Year, new music? Ambitions?: I should try to get some Bach in my regimen, I do love his music. I do too. The other thing about Bach, and the reason why I want to try to have him be a regular part of what I'm working on, is that I find it's like exercising, if I do it regularly. not only do I enjoy it, but it makes the other parts of my life easier because my body works better.

To be fair a comment regarding Denmark increasing Nato security that Trump made, was extremely funny "They added one more dog sled"

First we take away their healthcare…

Same here.
