Does it matter, though?
Yeah. Currently the center-right government here in Sweden are pushing nuclear, because the one thing they hate more than brown people is green people. But the industry actually tasked with building and running the plants have extracted both credit guarantees (== taxpayer money) and a legally mandated minimum price on electricity - remember, the entire populist narrative of nuclear is that it will bring cheap power! Plus they’re unlikely to start building unless there’s a stable parliamentary majority to cement the deal.
OK, so far, so good (nuclear policy in Sweden is colored by the fractious debate on ending nuclear power in the late 70s, but the principals of that debate (boomers) are finally dying off). But when the shovel hits the ground, you need a site to build it on. And the neighbors of said site are generally of the opinion that a fucking power pylon is an infringement on their god-given right to property resale price increase. Imagine a concrete box of eldrich power blocking the skyline, and imagine a population of people who know how to pull the levers of obstruction and have had decades of practice doing it. Fun times ahead.
This was a great essay.
Ad targeting, spam campaigns, dark propaganda.

Is that somewhat new in the US? I recall seeing ads for it here in Sweden for 15 years or more.
It’s so weird to see Klarna on that list, because I keep forgetting Klarna is now a huge juggernaut, not the little service that every etailer here in Sweden uses for checkout services
There’s a piece from Anthropic making the rounds stating they “disrupted” an “AI-orchestrated cyber espionage campaign”. Any meat on those bones or is it just the usual critihype?
[…] Curio’s Grok, an anthropomorphic rocket with a removable speaker, is also somewhat opaque about its underlying tech, though its privacy policy mentions sending data to OpenAI and Perplexity. (No relation to xAI’s Grok — or not exactly; while it’s not powered by Elon Musk’s chatbot, its voice was provided by the musician Claire “Grimes” Boucher, Musk’s former romantic partner.)

whatcha think? Is an upcoming gonzo horror/action flick really about Rationalists, or are the creators blissfully unaware those people even exist?

There was a ton of panic here in Sweden too. Specifically I heard of entities like councils and public boards like unemployment who were braced for a ton of data deletion requests that had to be fixed within 24 hours or something like otherwise huge legal fees. AFAIK nothing like that happened.
To be clear, I can’t edit Wikipedia to save my life. Editor in this case was Elestrophe.

None of those are well defined “problems”. An entire applied research field is not a “problem” akin to other items on this list lik P vs NP.
The cookie popups are basically malicious compliance.
But many yanks (even geeks) have an instinctive dislike of anything that smacks of government regulation. They’re conditioned to see corporations as good, or rather, that competition between corporations will always lead to good outcomes, and that anything that disrupts that competition as bad.

Good luck with the update!

Being really “smart” (along some axis) doesn’t make you succesful or even happy.
