(b) Microsoft’s infamous Tay. Deployed on Twitter in early 2016, Tay was supposed to “learn” from user interactions.But she was beset with racist, anti-semitic and misogynistic commentary, almost from the start. (3/4)

The halls had windows. I looked out the window each time I went up a level, and each time I gazed out, the view was changing. The outside world was becoming livelier, more vibrant, and cleaner.
The buildings weren’t so imposing and box-like anymore but came in different shapes, colors, and sizes. I felt like the top level was within reach.

I lost count of the number of levels I climbed but since the halls have gotten smaller as I went higher,
I finally entered a small room. It was about 30 square meters, carpeted, with wooden pillars decked with intricate carvings. There were a few people of varied ages, most of them quite mature. One group was playing charades.

Going to read “The Right Side of History”. This will be some mixture of enlightening, been there done that, and hate-read dunkathon. Let’s see.

No idea what Shapiro’s background is outside trolling libs, but I maybe he’s sort of Straussian? The ‘Jerusalem plus Athens’ thing.
So the thesis is ‘things have never been better, but we’re fucking it up now.’ Pinker + angst.
‘We’ in the book is Americans, natch.

Problem is we expect too much from the world and do too little to stand up for our national interest. #China will never allow UNSC sanctions on #Pakistan-sponsored terror groups. Nor will Beijing allow New Delhi to join NSG. Expecting China to stand by #India is outright stupid.
As a nation we have always sought shoulders to cry on and shoot from. We think we are being clever. We aren't. We are what we are: Willing to strike but mortally scared to wound. This happens when we let a circus called #Lebu Media with its #LeLi Commentariat influence policy.
Power flows from the barrel of a gun. But greater power flows from a Chinese weapon the world has come to fear. That weapon is called Economy. #India will have its way the day Indian economy has muscle and clout equalling or exceeding China's. Be ruthless in pursuing this goal.

Over the 40 years of formal US-China relations, few companies better illuminate the complex layers of this bilateral relationship than @Boeing.

@Neilthomas123 traces the story of Boeing and China, from the Cold War to the Trade War. Follow this thread: macropolo.org/boeing-us-chin…
1/ Did you know the very first engineer @Boeing hired was Chinese?

In 1916, Chinese-born, MIT-trained Wong Tsu helped William Boeing build the Model-C.

2/ Boeing's first sale to China came during the Cold War. When Nixon visited China in 1972, he personally approved a request from China to buy 10 B707s. The motive is more geopolitical than commercial: to weaken China's aviation dependence on Soviet planes:macropolo.org/boeing-us-chin…

Life in #China — a little tale of how this country deals with problems like squabbling children: I move into a new apt to discover upset neighbors who pay a visit to scream unintelligibly at me.
I finally figure out that they think the electric ac/heat in my unit is creating much noise in theirs. I learn this was a previous issue that the prop mgmt company I’m renting through failed to resolve.
Takes a week or so to get new unit; now it needs to be installed and I schedule this for two days later as I have a job that I can’t exactly drop everything last minute to supervise workers.

“They would like to see me lose an election because they have never been challenged like this,” @POTUS says of #China.
“A lot of money is coming into our coffers” from tariffs on the “dumpers” from #China, according to @POTUS.
“Unfortunately they just raised interest rates,” @POTUS says of the @federalreserve. “I’m not happy about that.”
