And now for something completely different.
How much interest in or attachment to -- if any -- do you have to the Californian past?
A lot of Texans are fascinated by Texan history, even if a common 'Remember the Alamo!" understanding of Texan history passes over ugly truths about slavery, segregation, relations with Mexico and Hispanic Americans, ethnic cleansing of Indians, racial violence, environmental horrors...
In this fascination with state history, Texas resembles other southern states. Yet the distinctive history of the Texas Revolution and Republic lends that past a special interest.
California has a very distinctive past, and those interested in US history will often take an interest in the history of California in a way they do not with, for example , Pennsylvania.
But what about Californians who are not specialists in Californian or US history? How interested in the Californian past are you/they?
The image depicts a historical scene of Yerba Buena, which is present-day San Francisco, on July 9, 1846. In the foreground, a large American flag is being raised on a flagpole in a plaza, with a group of soldiers in blue uniforms standing in formation nearby. The background shows a coastal landscape with hills and a body of water, where several ships are anchored, including a large sailing ship with multiple masts. Smaller boats are visible on the water, and a few buildings are scattered around the area. The text at the bottom of the image reads: "A View of YERBA BUENA (San Francisco). On July 9, 1846, Capt. Montgomery of the Sloop of War Portsmouth, raised the American Flag in the Plaza and seized the Region for the United States." The artist's signature, "Bartle Hall," is visible in the bottom right corner.

We drove to Lowell, Arizona, for lunch at the Bisbee Breakfast Club today. While waiting for a table we walked around and looked at the old cars.

@pluralistic A great tragedy because there are phenomenally useful wins to be had. All could be washed away by greed-driven VC scams that are mauling their sustainability. I hope enough of it survives that we can start over with better models.
The dot-com bubble led to a bunch of useless tech that got built and subsequently scrapped. But the internet of the 2000s and 2010s was built out of the bubble's corpse. It took a couple new generations of technology (telecoms and CPU) and slower thinking to do so.
I believe that useful AI will be built out of the corpse of this bubble. Similarly we need a few more generations of GPU tech to make it viable and slower thinking to make it useful.
The image features a light blue background with three main elements: a blue towel, a red t-shirt, and a washing machine. The towel is positioned on the left side, depicted in a folded state. The red t-shirt is on the right side, shown flat. Between the towel and the t-shirt is a red circle with a diagonal line through a plus sign, indicating a prohibition. The washing machine is centrally located at the bottom, with a front-loading design, a circular door, and a control panel with a dial and a digital display. The overall composition suggests a laundry-related theme, with the prohibition symbol indicating that the towel and t-shirt should not be washed together.

@pluralistic : "I firmly believe the (economic) AI apocalypse is coming. These companies are not profitable. They can't be profitable. They keep the lights on by soaking up hundreds of billions of dollars in other people's money and then lighting it on fire."
