ARGH why is there no simple way to have @npub1nfl…nul3 lists that work exactly like the follow feed, e.g. show you reposts and quotes etc?
I need my main feed short enough I don't miss low-frequency scientists posting, but I love the reposts of some of my loquacious follows.

Wow! Happy I could help! But I'm sure I learned a lot more from you two than you could have from me. Super important work explaining who does the dirty work that makes up the logic of the authoritarian state.

I wish they gave these to you every time you increased academic rank. I particularly tend to forget (took a long time to recognise) the second point.
I got this at the council of Europe parliamentary meeting two weeks ago Monday.

This was also an undeclared war, I believe at the time referred to technically as a police action. Senate never declared war on any part of Vietnam.

Does anyone know what proportion of energy demand from data centres in the US is
- (gen)AI
- cryptocurrency/blockchain mining
- any other big uses?
Also how this changes over the day / data surges?

The woman closest to me called out the stupid claim that AI will solve intractable social issues, that we need to have people and governments. The moron to her left reframes that as saying AI can’t do anything, and says“the past few weeks show it can do anything.” #AIActionSummit vs #accelerationism
