With more that 24 hours to go lines are forming to get in line for the Tesla Model 3. Unlike an Apple line where at the end you get an iPhone – this is a line that lets you pay $1000 to get into a 2+ year long line to get the car. Most people in line today aren’t going to get this car till mid 2018. So a line to get into a line is impressive!

NEW Model 3 specs leaked here!

Yes – it’s a CULT and I may be powerless to resist! I know it’s wrong but it’s likely I’m going to get in line tomorrow!

Democrat Hank Johnson things that Guam will tip over and capsize because of overpopulation. you have to see it to believe it. I’m surprised the guy he’s talking to didn’t bust out laughing.

Here’s what I find interesting about this talk. About 8:30 in you can see how the neural net visualizes images and it seems to be extremely similar to how humans recognize things. It gives me a sense that all the human brain really does is match inputs and memories. The brain is more of an intuition engine rather than a reasoning machine. Looks like they are putting the pieces together and this is a step towards an artificial brain.

I don’t remember pics like this when Bill Clinton was running for president. Sexy Communist from Slovenia, former model, jewelry and watch designer.

Oh this is too good! Christie skips funeral for slain police officer to campaign for Trump and this is what he gets? Feel the Bern!

Donald Trump hit his newfound sidekick Chris Christie with some friendly fire on Monday while trying to attack Ohio Gov. John Kasich ahead of his home state’s Tuesday primary.

Trump, speaking a campaign rally in Columbus, Ohio, accused Kasich of having abandoned his gubernatorial duties to campaign in New Hampshire.

“And your governor is absentee,” Trump told the crowd. “He goes to New Hampshire, he’s living in New Hampshire. Living! Where’s Chris, is Chris around? Even more than Chris Christie, he was there, right? Even more.”

Trump then turned to Christie, who was next to him on stage, and said, “I hated to do that, but I had to make my point.”

The timing was less than ideal for New Jersey’s governor. In his home state, he was being criticized Monday for skipping the funeral of Sean Cullen, a state trooper killed last week, in order to campaign with Trump.

This is as good as when Cheney shot a guy in the face and made the guy apologize to him.

Note at 1:58 in Rubio has a grin on his face so big he can’t contain it. I’m surprised they don’t arrest Trump for inciting a riot.

Read all about it. Round 2 goes to the computer as well.

A huge milestone has just been reached in the field of artificial intelligence: AlphaGo, a program developed by Google’s DeepMind unit, has defeated legendary Go player Lee Se-dol in the first of five historic matches being held in Seoul, South Korea. Lee resigned after about three and a half hours, with 28 minutes and 28 seconds remaining on his clock. The series is the first time a professional 9-dan Go player has taken on a computer, and Lee is competing for a $1 million prize.

“I was very surprised,” said Lee after the match. “I didn’t expect to lose. [But] I didn’t think AlphaGo would play the game in such a perfect manner.” DeepMind founder Demis Hassabis expressed “huge respect for Lee Se-dol and his amazing skills,” calling the game “hugely exciting” and “very tense.” Team lead David Silver said it was an “amazing game of Go that really pushed AlphaGo to its limits.”

All hail our computer overlords!

It appears Mitt Romney is thinking about jumping into the Republican race. For those who think it’s too late – maybe not.

In order to win the nomination a candidate has to get half the delegates. Delegates are committed to vote for their candidate only on the first round. If no one gets 1/2 then delegates can vote for anyone. The question as to what “anyone” means is still open, and there might be some rule changes going into the convention.

In order to stop Trump Romney is considering jumping in at the convention because it’s not just Trump. All the Republican candidates are a disaster and there’s doubt that any candidate will get to more than half. Romney apparently thinks they could unite around him, but that would mean completely ignoring 100% of the voters.

And Trump would likely launch a third party bid. Trumps pledge not to run as independent is conditional on the party not screwing him. And if he gets more votes than anyone else then not picking him is screwing him.

My only prediction that I’m standing by this year is that the election will be interesting and unusual. Might even rival the 2000 election.
