How Stupid Did You Say?

Publications Compete To Call Trump's "Infrastructure Plan" Stupid 
How Disappointed Can a Nation Be?

You kidding?

  Trump's infrastructure plan isn't a plan. It's a fantasy

 Trump Infrastructure Plan Would Pay For A Fraction Of Investment


   

 Is Great Unless You Want an Actually  functioning 
Infrastructure


And from way back in 2016: President Trump's Backassward Infrastructure Idea


Why in holy heck can't we just do this right?
I'm too smart for THAT!

I & All the AIs Agree - Partners! UPDATED

(UPDATE AT END)  A Cool Concept for a Complex Case Do you have a "project" going with AI(s)? I do, and it's working great. (I and AI Claude are editing my current sci-fi novel.) It's working so well I'm excited. I don't get excited all that often these days. Then BANG! it occurred to me that Claude and I were working as a real team , each supporting the other, pulling in the same direction -- all that team stuff. Seems like a really good way to use AI, become partners. SO I WROTE A NEW PROMPT:  "My strong belief:  I think a good human/AI "partnership" has max synergy potential. Comment please"...  and fed it to ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini, MetaAI and finally to Claude.   ChatGPT : I think that's a defensible—and interesting—position.   The potential synergy comes from complementarity rather than simple substitution : Human: goals, values, judgment about what matters, lived experience, intuition, and responsibility. AI: enormous workin...

GREAT NEWS!

 At Least One of Trump's Catastrophic  Attacks on Science Reversed OK, I admit it, I was becoming disconsolate (beyond consolation, a sucko state of mind) about the damage our current Prez and his gang are doing to science in America. Thousands of research projects abandoned and totally destroyed, thousands of our greatest scientific minds being discarded like used tissues, hundreds of universities being whiplashed into confusion, hundreds of thousands of the world's brightest students being barred from studying (and becoming entrepreneurs) in America.... on and on.  Then one piece of news amped me up to a new level of teeth grinding (no, not the one about spending another $billion to shut down three more wind farms... gag! ).  The "money saving"   trumpery  plan to wipe out our extraordinary ocean observatories, and letting them rust away in storage (that was the plan... barf! ).  Then... Then... THEN... EVERYTHING IS SUDDENLY REVERSED!! Every ...

Rick and Morty

A Millenial Hit Olde Folks Don't Know About Are you over 50? Have you ever heard about "Rick and Morty?" I thought not. There is a "cell" of younger people who love the show and say extravagant things about its wonderfulness. In these times when prior punditry had it we would be unified by some mysterious power in the Internet, there are more and more cells of people, unified within their cells, but isolated from most of the other cells of special interests*, tastes and proclivities.  The U.S. looks more like a pomegranate than a cantaloupe - to push the fruit/melon analogy to its extreme. I will dream up a graphic one of these days. USA, USA! society in fruit form. ANYHOO... I watched Rick and Morty at my millennial son's suggestion, and I LOVE IT. Eccentric old genius and non-genius grandson as the lead characters (faintly Back to the Future -esque) + sci-fi + Simpsons sensibilities +  intelligent satire + over-the-top imaginative creators...
