Die Bedeutung können deutsche Journalisten einfach nicht glauben, und deswege nicht mal im Artikel erwähnen: Die Hamas hat bis zuletzt versucht, eine nicht-militärische Option zur Befreiung von Gefangenen offenzuhalten. Israel hat diese, trotz konkrete Drohungen, abgelehnt. Erst dann griff Hamas an.

Fast alle deutschen Medien berichten über eine Warnung der Emirate zum 7. Oktober – DAS IST FALSCH. Laut der Haaretz-Recherche kam die Warnung, gerichtet an Israel, von Hamas-Chef Sinwar – anscheinend, um Netanjahu wieder in Verhandlungen zu bringen. Die Emirate haben sie lediglich übermittelt.

I wrote about this as a critic of slop & detectors. To your good Q’s: even rare false positives scale up (1 in 100 is a lot in a million); second, it’s an arms race: LLMs will learn what not to do, breaking any detection infrastructure we opt to depend on. mail.cyberneticforests.com/its-not-just...

🔇 🔇 🔇 My book, Deep Unlearning, is now available for preorders! I don't know how people write so many books because this one took a lot out of me. It turns out, I had a lot to say 😂, with editors cutting out 50k of my words 🫣 ✴️ You can now preorder it at www.simonandschuster.com/books/Deep-U....

If you havnt already, go watch my latest video essay on the Sudanese Resistance Committees and their revolutionary charter. Every leftist in the world needs to know about this text. youtu.be/ISyFtL2hq1Q

am i allowed to talk about how weird it is that the main way liberals philantropize trans people is by donating money to liberal nonprofits for call centers that beg us not to kill ourselves, instead of directly funding our material needs which, when deprived, lead to suicidality? is that allowed?

really thinking about this tweet as i’ve been struggling to breathe through nausea for the last 5 hours

Joseph Weizenbaum's 1976 book, Computer Power and Human Reason, has long been out of print - used copies sell for hundreds of dollars. It's wild that this is not more widely available given how much his ideas still apply to the world we're in now. 🧵/

"the computer is a powerful new metaphor for helping us to understand many aspects of the world, but that it enslaves the mind that has no other metaphors and few other resources to call on. The world is many things, and no single framework is large enough to contain them all" ...

"But that objection misses the point entirely. The point is... that there are some human functions for which computers ought not to be substituted. It has nothing to do with what computers can or cannot be made to do. Respect, understanding, and love are not technical problems.” ...

Weizenbaum does not mince words! He describes as "obscene," "an attack on life itself," "all projects that propose to substitute a computer system for a human function that involves interpersonal respect, understanding, and love" ...

"They fear that evil people will develop superintelligent machines and use them to oppress mankind, and that the only defense against these enemy machines will be superintelligent machines controlled by us, that is, by well-intentioned people." ...

“The computer, as presently used by the technological elite, is not a cause of anything. It is rather an instrument pressed into the service of rationalizing, supporting, and sustaining the most conservative, indeed reactionary, ideological components of the current Zeitgeist.” ...

“The myth of technological and political and social inevitability is a powerful tranquilizer of conscience. Its service is to remove responsibility from the shoulders of everyone who truly believes in it.” ...

"The very asking of the question, “What does a judge (or a psychiatrist) know that we cannot tell a computer?” is a monstrous obscenity. That it has to be put into print at all, even for the purpose of exposing its morbidity, is a sign of the madness of our times.” ...

Not for nothing, but if these people had read more Frantz Fanon and Paulo Freire, they might've seen the data center backlash coming and taken steps to avoid it. …But, then, if these people had read more fanon and freire, a whole bunch of shyt would be real different, these days.

New article discussing Dr. Luke Kemp's excellent book "Goliath's Curse." It's an extraordinary work of scholarship with some fantastically disturbing insights about the likelihood of civilizational collapse in the coming decades. Check it out! www.realtimetechpocalypse.com/p/goliaths-c...

Makes you wonder how many Watergate-level crimes he's currently complicit in right now.

"LGB-no-T" campaigner Julie Bindel says she'd BAN pride if she could, in order to protect children from predatory gay men. Absolutely fucking appalling. A whole column — "A Pride of Perverts" — going on like this. TERFing really cooks the brain.

Peter Thiel‘s secret society Dialog: The 2026 retreat in Ireland featured sessions titled “Navigating WWIII”, “How’s Your Sex Life?”, “Build-a-Cult”, “Build-a-Party”, “Battlefield Technologies”, “Bring Back Nuclear”, “Money (Does?) Buy Happiness”

Is any European and/or German media going to pick this up? Or are we all supposed to be fine with the not-so-secret full on dictatorship of the tech-broligarchy? I know this word is overused, but this is shocking. Both in its existence and its cover up. This should be huge news, a major scandal.

What the BBC doesn’t say is that Nalobin adds a whole other layer of complacency/incompetence/cover-up by UK govt. Read this to understand backdrop to this whole story & ask yourself why UK govt *still* refuses to investigate Kremlin interference in UK politics www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

A) This a properly brilliant piece of investigative journalism by BBC & @hopenot.bsky.social Huge kudos to all involved for doing the job the UK police & CPS failed to do: naming the alleged spymaster & clearly showing Kremlin’s role. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

SCOOP: So remember Dialog, Peter Thiel's private society that doesn't have a public website and no public list of members? I (along with a number of other journalists) have just been tipped off that embedded in the code of their closed off website there IS what seems to be a list of some members.

Talks or "Sessions" at the upcoming event include titles such as: “Bring Back Nuclear,” “Disinformation and Deepfakes,” “Contrarian AI Takes,” “Three Predictions for Iran," “Democracy Under Surveillance,” “Build-a-Cult (Soapbox),” and “It’s Fun to Be in Charge.” san.com/cc/peter-thi...

NEW: A trove of internal records from Dialog, the secret society cofounded by Peter Thiel, was left exposed online. WIRED obtained a second cache of records that reveal who's really attending, how they're screened, and what personal details they were promised would stay private.

"For white Germans to stand for the rights of Palestinians to life, health, safety, and freedom, they would need to study our world from outside Germany’s myopic narratives." @weserhag.bsky.social re: Habeck and "One day, everyone will have always been against it."

Help spread the word that Who is Afraid of Degrowth has been translated to Korean! Congratulations @celine.bsky.social !

If you say "I support Palestine Action", they might put you in jail. If you incite a racist riot, they put you on the news.

And it's not just any riot - it's a Farage riot

Three years ago we started a new ERC-funded project called REAL, with three teams of brilliant researchers. Here are ten exciting papers involving my team that we've published so far, so you can see what we've been up to. And there's much more to come... stay tuned! 🧵

“Bartov believes that Trump’s Gaza plan “advances somewhat” toward the goal of the kind of Israeli-Palestinian settlement he advocates (217).” Yikes + he means this Germany:

My message to Korean readers of 🐌⚡️'Who Is Afraid of Degrowth?'⚡️ can't wait to see and hold the (extra large!) Korean edition in my hands. Thanks so much to Narumbooks!
