Podcast appearances and mentions of Scott Wiener

State Senator Scott Wiener is angling for Nancy Pelosi's congressional seat but a New York Times magazine investigation links Wiener's 2022 “Safer Streets for All Act” to a boom in the sex-trafficking of children in California. In other news: Newsom matches Trump in the theatrical use of National Guardsmen, the Los Angeles school teacher who called for armed resistance to immigration enforcement, the “Wealth Tax” makes a California comeback, and how I Love Lucy changed television and the world.

This is a link post. Written in my personal capacity. Thanks to many people for conversations and comments. Written in less than 24 hours; sorry for any sloppiness. It's an uncanny, weird coincidence that the two biggest legislative champions for AI safety in the entire country announced their bids for Congress just two days apart. But here we are. On Monday, I put out a long blog post making the case for donating to Alex Bores, author of the New York RAISE Act. And today I'm doing the exact same thing for Scott Wiener, who announced a run for Congress in California today (October 22). Much like with Alex Bores, if you're potentially interested in donating to Wiener, my suggestion would be to: Read this post to understand the case for donating to Scott Wiener. Understand that political donations are a matter of public record, and that this [...] --- First published: October 22nd, 2025 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/n6Rsb2jDpYSfzsbns/consider-donating-to-ai-safety-champion-scott-wiener Linkpost URL:https://ericneyman.wordpress.com/2025/10/22/consider-donating-to-ai-safety-champion-scott-wiener/ --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

He is among the nation's very worst governors, but Gavin Newsom is among America's most skillful politicians — and has the inside track on the race for the White House.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg Key Takeaways  Maxims from philosopher king, Chris Williamson: Peace is a performance enhancerDo not feel shame in taking pleasure in the small thingsYou are enough already, but you can be more  Delayed gratification in the extreme results in no gratification If you are unduly absorbed in improving your life, you might forget to live itThe price of anything is the amount of life that you exchange for it  When a man can't find a deep sense of pleasure, he distracts himself with meaningScarcity and unavailability are often mistaken for worth Demography is destiny; declining birth rates are existential  We remember the noise of bad choices, but we rarely count the cost of silence The monster you create to achieve initial success might not serve you later in your journeyMonotony is the enemy of a well-remembered life: Time flies as we get older because we cannot remember our days, and we do not remember them because we haven't done anything memorable Put down your ruminating brain: Overthinking invents more problems than it solvesAttaining something worthwhile is often going to be difficult, but just because it is difficult does not mean that it is worthwhile Errors of commission bruise the ego, but errors of omission starve the soul Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org(0:00) Bestie intros!

As part of our summer food series, we're diving into one of NYC's most iconic eats: pizza.

Plus, listeners call in with their go-to NYC pizza spots.*This episode is guest-hosted by Tiffany Hanssen.

On July 8, Capitol Weekly and the University of California Student and Policy Center presented California and AI, a daylong look at the Golden State's approach to regulating Artificial Intelligence. California is a global leader in AI technology and lawmakers in Sacramento are tasked with creating legislation and regulations that will help the state maintain leadership in this emerging industry, while creating guardrails that protect Californians. Legislators have introduced over 30 AI-related bills this session, and nearly 20 AI bills were signed into law by Governor Newsom in 2024. Senator Scott Wiener led the charge both this year and last, and has emerged as one of the key voices in the discussion around AI regulation, and we present his Keynote as part of today's podcast. His remarks begin at about the 16 minute mark.1:48 Mecha-Hitler3:15 Op-Eds12:25 Remembering George Steffes15:58 Senator Scott Wiener42:23 #WWCAWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

MSNBC's Ari Melber hosts “The Beat” on Wednesday, July 2, and reports on the House GOP's stalled vote on Trump's budget, the Diddy verdict, and California's rollback of its landmark environmental law. Scott Wiener, James Carville, Nancy Erika Smith and Kim Osorio join the show.

In this episode, I'm joined by two of California's leading housing champions, Assemblymember Buffy Wicks and Senator Scott Wiener, to discuss their bills to reform the state's notorious environmental review law, CEQA. We explore how a well-intentioned 1970s environmental protection has become a tool for NIMBYs, unions, and even oil companies to delay or kill housing projects — and why the politics have finally shifted enough to make progress possible.

Join us for an unexpected history of the rise of American capitalism—and an argument that entrepreneurial leaders in government, not the “free market,” created the most dynamic economy the world has ever known. Economist and writer Chris Hughes takes us on a journey through the modern history of American capitalism, relating the captivating stories of the most effective “marketcrafters” and the ones who bungled the job. Hughes, author of the new book Marketcrafters, says both Republicans and Democrats have consistently attempted to organize markets for social and political reasons, like avoiding gasoline shortages, reducing inflation, fostering the American aviation and semiconductor industries, fighting climate change, and supporting financial innovation. That flies in the face of the widespread belief among policymakers and business leaders alike that free markets, untouched by the soiled hands of government, bring us prosperity and stability. Hughes says that's wrong. American policy makers, on the right and the left, have spent much of the past century actively shaping our markets for social and political goals. Their work behind the scenes and out of the headlines has served as a kind of “marketcraft,” mirroring the statecraft of international relations. In recent decades, the art of marketcraft has been replaced by the idea that markets work best when they are unfettered and free. Hughes argues that by rediscovering the triumphs and failures of past marketcrafters, we can shape future markets, such as those in artificial intelligence and clean power production, to be innovative, stable and inclusive.
