Trying to count the ways this is wrong is giving me a headache. Either this is intending a very narrow definition of "big tech" or a very weird definition of disappear. The internet infra is critical to logistics of delivering food, and is run by "big tech".https://twitter.com/philritz1/status/1224376630711345157 …

god just give it to me, dont give any to maureen dowd she will fuck up the whole situation like she did with edibles. give normal people mids and give me the kaio ken weedhttps://twitter.com/cnn/status/1224465116852359170 …

this is the edible situation: imagine they made alcohol legal and then someone who hasnt drank in decades gets sick because they decide to chug a fifth of vodka. because of this they make it so you can only buy liquor in little airplane bottles, that cost as much as that fifth

Yes, LGC's are the main mechanism to underwrite their profits. But how long will be able to justify paying for 'green' electrons when we have no use for them?

Most locations pay a strike price for wind and solar, which isn't tied to wholesale. Price goes negative, producer still gets strike price. Plus, they get CONSTRAINT payments when forced to shut down production due to over production. Its the consumer who ends up paying.

After 1.40pm S Aust could not give away power today, in fact they had to 'pay' for it to be taken. Hence the price went to -$153.85MWh, but just prior to that it was zero. Tell me who will invest in more solar PV if every State has plenty at solar noon? It's less than worthless.

Amazon pays $0 in federal income taxes. Amazon pays $0 in federal income taxes. Amazon pays $0 in federal income taxes. Amazon pays $0 in federal income taxes. Amazon pays $0 in federal income taxes. Amazon pays $0 in federal income taxes.https://twitter.com/CNN/status/1224097701400326144 …

Let’s talk about ADHD and sleep! Cause if you talk about ADHD at all, eventually someone is going to pop up and say something about sleep. But we’ll get into that in a second. First, let’s just talk about sleep and humans.

Democratic followers: name a dictator or strongman you respect or admire. You cannot name any kings.

I got a call from Chase today and they immediately wanted to verify who I was by texting me a code. 1. You called me. You're the one that needs to verify that you're actually my bank. 2. What's the threat model here? That I can intercept people's calls but not their texts?

I can’t wait until Amazon Prime drivers strike and blockade the fulfillment centers with their vans.

We need some corroboration, though.https://twitter.com/oneunderscore__/status/1224406457740931072 …

This is what consent-based siting looks like, and that's ok. While Kincardine was in favor of the repository, the Saugeen Ojibway voted against it, and the project should be (and was) stopped accordingly. Not everyone will want radioactive waste on their land, and that's ok

.@opg has halted plans to build an intermediate-level radioactive waste repository near Kincardine, Ontario. The Saugeen Ojibway Nation, whose traditional land was used without their consent to build the Bruce nuclear power plant, has voted overwhelmingly to block the project

Yeah, the obvious counterexample to me here is Eve Online, in which people form extremely elaborate organizational structures to order to protect and attack intangible objects. Part of the thrill of the game is that losing a ship is real, even though the ships aren't *real*.

Canada is buying all electric buses from BYD, the global leader in electric vehicles. The US has banned federal agencies from buying BYD buses. A federal handout while Elon stops driving his best employees away, losing cash, and actually ships a bus?https://twitter.com/Tomdonoghue/status/1223669860497940480 …

Immigration has been a central issue for Silicon Valley for years, so kind of interesting that not a single major tech leader said a word about the six countries added to the travel ban last week.
