This tracks. Like we've seen in some STEM fields, I also worry that AGI will crater fluid reasoning and reading comprehension skills. School kids are already struggling with this.
New Microsoft study finds that using generative AI at work makes employees' critical thinking skills "atrophied and unprepared"

More right-wing SF Twitter spreading literal far-right garbage on here because nobody knows how to look up a government grant program on the internet. The bar is in the Mariana Trench. “demystified” indeed.
It begins❗️ San Francisco rackets getting demystified❗️

Tom, it's not "fascinating" to boost a conspiracy-boosting fascist who doesn't know how to Google. The answers to your questions are readily available. It's a federal grant for HIV care for underserved communities. The $ is a drop in the bucket. You are being jerked around.
I'd like to see context on this. How many years was this $90m spread over, and how was it distributed and to who? These are reasonable requests. Fascinating.

Mike Cernovich is a right-wing moron who can't do an internet search. SF receives about $15m / year to fund care for underserved and low-income people with HIV. ("RWHAP Part A"). That is 0.00000222222% of US annual spending.
$90,000,000 in USAID for HIV in San Francisco? Would love to see where this money REALLY goes.

I don’t think Kevin knows that these actions have armed militant protestors who are looking for bad actors. Really funny how these men pretend they’re in danger or somehow victims because of a de-facto traffic jam.
Make no mistake, if my family is in the car, I don’t care what you are protesting, I am driving right over your ass if you block the road. The choice between you and my family’s safety is hilariously easy. I beg of you to not force me make the decision.

once in a while, when i'm feeling down, i go on YouTube and look up how BuffCorrell is doing. some 11 years after he went viral for dancing and singing (poorly) in a bedroom, he's still uploading all the time. talk about legacy. (he's still buff.)

Exclusive @ Gazetteer: In 2022, SF DA Brooke Jenkins announced reforms + recommitment to the Innocence Commission, which seeks to overturn wrongful convictions. But it seems to have ground to a halt. It's been 9 months since it last met.

In 2022, the commission exonerated a man wrongfully convicted in his friend's murder. But since Jenkins took DA role, it appears the commission has not adjudicated a single case. I couldn't get a single member of the IC to speak to me on record.
