Third worlders don't understand how value and wealth are created They think everything is zero-sum and the wealthy are just cheaters MAGA is also third world, according to this metric, by the way
If someone invents a battery that makes electric cars twice as cheap and becomes a billionaire, society hasn't lost a billion dollars. We've gained cheaper transportation. The obsession with how much money innovators make completely misses how much value they create.

While we’re talking about much-needed environmental review reform: California High-Speed Rail had to study how running service on existing tracks between SF and San Jose would affect anchovies, sardines, mackerel, and market squid. The rail line has existed since the 1860s.

I’m constantly ashamed of how little faith I have when I see things like this. I’ve been given everything and I still doubt everything.

If you exclude data centers from the transmission provisions of BAAJA you are actively pushing them off the grid, which means they will use fossil fuels
It would be trivial to exclude data centers from BAAJA's permitting lock-in. You could even ban them entirely on public lands with one line of text. The fact that so many BAAJA backers are freaking out over this story but not doing anything about it is telling.

The Sunrise Movement is full of such unrepentant liars that they won’t admit that EVERY serious model of BAAJA’s impact says it would significantly DECREASE emissions
The Democratic Party is full of such unimaginative cowards that they’re deciding to pass a permitting deal that would make climate change worse right BEFORE they get more power.

The alternative to a 4% emissions decline is a 0% emissions decline
Some of us believe there is a climate emergency. I have to wonder if BAAJA proponents really do. Best case modeling, BAAJA drives down emissions 4% by 2040. If that's what we actually end up doing, we're cooked. This is not a climate bill. billmckibben.substack.com/p/…

Can't believe a US politician is ignoring a small number of UK based cranks.
The first American Muslim senator, Abdul El-Sayed, has attended a Diwali celebration. Diwali is a major Hindu religious festival, commonly involving honouring "deities" such as Lakshmi and celebrating the return of Rama to Ayodhya. Celebrations can include prayers and puja (acts of worship), including offerings to Hindu "deities." Muslim scholars prohibit partaking in Diwali celebrations or even wishing Hindus "Happy Diwali" because Islam is built upon Tawheed — the absolute oneness of Allah — and the rejection of shirk, associating partners with Him.

Sure, data centers don't produce food, and Krispy Kreme doesn't accelerate software development, answer questions, or solve math problems. Ultimately this is just "Things I don't personally value should be banned." We have a perfectly good system for allocating scarce resources among people who value different things: Market pricing. Refusal to use market pricing is why there are frequent water shortages in the American Southwest.
Let me try and explain: a Krispy Kreme uses water to make doughnuts which can be eaten and coffee which can be drunken. The workers wash their hands so the food is sanitary and the customers use the bathroom. In a data center, all that water is wasted with no treats.

>I met my wife Lori when I was 17, she was 19 at the time, an older woman He was groomed and the affair was a trauma response, but y'all are not ready for that conversation
Jensen Huang: I met my wife Lori when I was 17, and we’ve been married for 40 years. “She was 19 at the time, an older woman.” “I beat the other 250 boys in my class and won her heart.”
