Do you know the stories of deaths of 15-year-old Brian, 83-year-old Earl, and 18-year-old Renee? PROOF Podcast tells them and those of the people who investigated their murders, prosecuted them, and those who were and are in prison. #truecrime #investigativejournalism #innocence

Okay here's my argument for exactly how I think the "AI uses a bottle of water" statistic looks like it was miscalculated. It's a little in the weeds. Link below
STOKED about the new @proofcrimepod season coming next week. @TheViewFromLL2 , did I hear correctly in the preview, is this the same cold case squad that pinned the hunters on Jeff Titus?

Exclusive: Trails maintained by the U.S. Forest Service are being “abandoned” and deteriorating rapidly, threatening visitor safety, after the Trump administration cut staff, according to an internal report obtained by The Post. wapo.st/48Ym32G
Would very much like to see @mattyglesias write a piece on voter perceptions of corruption in general and responding to this thread in particular.
Facing the most corrupt president ever it’s annoying that voters see both parties as corrupt — but that’s probably because voters classify Democrats’ cover-up of Biden’s mental decline as corrupt behavior.

Proud of the storytelling we did tonight on The Lookout, even if it made me cry. It's one of the rawer broadcasts we've done. We talked about how lightning busts turn into major fire sieges, how the Forest Service ended up with all of the worst timber ground, and conversely, how Sierra Pacific Industries ended up with all of the best.
Also, a wild afternoon in Deer Creek Canyon, where a helitack crew had to be extracted from a fire that was escaping their control, the history of fire in Deer Creek Watershed, and a story about how the Garnet Fire is poised to burn up Teakettle Experimental Forest, where million of dollars and thousands of planning hours have been spent trying to get a 3,000 acre prescribed burn done.

Talking about the #SummitFire, on the Klamath National Forest.
Inspired by positive experiences with AI products reported by people I respect like Matt Yglesias and @tracewoodgrains , I had a little chat with Grok this afternoon about remediating the national debt.
All the tweets below are written by Grok as a summary of our convo: 1/15
"DOGE rates 2/10. $23.5B is a start, but untargeted slashes (not fraud-focused) offset gains. $1T/yr goal’s off—wrong tree vs. our workforce fix. Promising only if it hits entitlements, tax gaps. Now, it’s a loud bark, no bite on $36T debt." 15/15
-End Grok Summary-
In short, the AIs seem to agree with @mattyglesias - we need more Americans.
