at some point the term "exponential" entered the popular usage to refer to a single very large increase over a single previous value, an increase of which cannot by definition be exponential (because you can't define a curve with two points).

it's even in the nyt, which i believe is supposed to have people whose actual primary job it is to not let bullshit like that out the door.

reminder: the US has $400 billion USD to pay defense contractors for a vaporware fighter plane (2.3x bezos' net worth, and more than bezos+musk's net worths put together), but doesn't have enough space (in texas, lol) to hold unaccompanied children, so they have decided to break the law and hold them beyond the legal limit in concentration camps.

google has recently just started straight-up blocking access to youtube if you're behind a vpn. not even asking for captcha, just outright denying access to videos. you can browse the website, they just won't let you view any content.

copyrights, including those used to enforce free software licenses, are inherently violent because they ultimately depend on state violence (a cop with a gun) or threat of same to enforce them. without an armed pig, copyrights are just fairytales told by congress to media companies.
