The Argument
@TheArgumentMag4h
On the latest episode of The Argument, @mattyglesias remembers when Climate Defiance activists stormed the stage of the first Abundance Conference to protest his talk. The protesters were upset by Matt's defense of Kamala Harris, who opposed a ban on fracking. But why aren't those same activists now protesting pro-fossil fuel Democrats like James Talarico and Mary Peltola? Matt and @JerusalemDemsas discuss the disconnect between what climate activists want from Democrats and what those same Democrats are actually promising voters when it comes to oil and gas. Watch the full episode: youtu.be/oQz4g2dLudI

The announcement today by Microsoft to reduce its workforce by 25% is hard to fathom, both in its local implications to the Seattle region but also in regards to the overall AI public policy narrative. And it had absolutely nothing to do with tax rates in Washington state.

Mariners have been tight-lipped throughout their search, which is why just three names have been linked to the opening so far. But there are 'mystery' candidates being seriously considered. Expecting quite a bit of movement in the next handful of days.

In the rush to build data centers, companies are starting to use their own off grid gas generators. This results in much higher emissions – 60% to 80% – compared with using their local electricity grid and risks locking in longer-term fossil dependence.

People don’t appreciate that there are at least 50,000 households in Wisconsin with a net worth greater than $2 million. So damn straight ticket prices to the World Series games that happen every 50 years would be insane.

Who would have thought someone who doesn't believe in free speech or the rule of law would have been a bad fit for the ACLU? Really shocking stuff here! Anyway I'm sure lessons will be learned. indystar.com/story/news/poli…

I have greatly enjoyed watching America feel the same things I have felt about Vivek Ramaswamy since the fall of 2003

I would hate to see the nonhumbl suggestion.

My humble suggestion is that we add a data center moratorium to the bill, just to clear up any confusion and broaden the coalition. Shouldn’t be a problem, right?

In a country with 330 million people and only two political parties, you need to be able to cooperate with people who you don’t agree with about everything which is hard if one faction insists all disagreement is a form of corruption.

Good time to start a watch of Battlestar Gallatica, wherein the Cyclons turn on the humans. Got to start prepping for the upcoming robot war.

Really interesting to watch the Republican attack ads for other states during college football. Its all illegals all the time. And the spending is always one way, because the billionaires are funding all of it. Have yet to see a Democratic ad.
