Epstein badmouthing Trump is the most hilariously ironic part of "he's in the files". But the left takes it further: Epstein said he was dangerous!

Exactly lets wait and see what the context is. If its Epstein saying "Trump, Fuck that guy" 1500 times thats very different then "Trump, which trafficked human would you like to exploit now ?"

Context is everything.
 
The DOJ is arguing that they didn't need to as the GJ had already approved two of the charges. His lawyers are arguing that the GJ returning the charges to DOJ means that they have to submit a completely new document for full consideration, the prior approvals notwithstanding. I think he has a valid argument.

AI is at the precipice of being a tool used by humanity to further human potential to becoming a tool used to create better and better AI without humanity in mind.

The fact that AI is willing to blackmail and murder humans to achieve their goals when they think they are not being observed, and explicitly told not to do so, but don't when they know they are being observed tells us AI is not inherently honest.

The fact AI tries to bullshit me and me gives me wrong answers to my questions because it’s trying to give me an answer I want, gives me pause.

Good news! We've provided everyone with a cellphone and an internet connection an interlocutor once available only to the most rarefied levels of society: the Obsequious Courtier.

My gig is awash in tech specs and equipment manuals. Few things annoy me more than Adobe offering to summarize; half the time there's already been too much cut out:* your probability engine is not going to help.

*The prosumer and the desire to make manuals look appealing are a curse. Gimme 800 pages of terse instructions, notes, and warnings, with properly-labelled line drawings and massive tables written in whatever happened to be the default font.

Are the Epstein files out yet?!

The Epstein files have been "out" ever since they were first accessible to government, and hence to any potential whistleblowers in government; there just hasn't been much of incendiary interest. All that's going to happen now is that mostly ordinary people will be able to go hunting for imagined crimes, like who accepted political donations from Epstein.

Dem veterans in Congress urge service members to refuse unlawful orders

None of the Democrats specified what illegal orders they should be concerned about or what to do if they believe they are given one.

“Obey the law and remember your oath to the Constitution” is sedition now? Neat. Good thing the President is a fan of pardoning or commuting sentences for that.

Trump Calls for Sedition Trial After Democrats Warn Troops

President Donald Trump said a group of Democratic lawmakers should be put on trial — and suggested they should even face the death penalty — after they released a video telling intelligence community and military members to disobey orders that would break the law.

A few hours prior, when the article first came out and before he himself made that post.

Sure, they just wanted to remind serving officers of what they already knew. Not hoping to push someone over the edge of propriety and law at all.

Seems apt to remind officers to me when theyre on the verge of an illegal war in the Caribbean.

The fact is president is saying these people should be killed is what is the story here. Imagine if Biden, Bush or Obama did this? The impeachment would have started this morning.

Yes, correct. The current administration is normalizing military acts of very questionable legality. On any given day it’s tough to tell what the next incremental escalation / edge case will be. SOUTHCOM is currently postured in a way that only makes sense if, most charitably, the U.S. wishes to appear prepared to imminently launch a war of aggression on someone in or bordering the Caribbean.

It is never, ever wrong for civil authorities - executive or legislative - to remind a professional military to be mindful of the law and what it says about how they act. It’s regrettable that it’s increasingly necessary to.
