It's important to him because he's a white supremacist, which is the same reason he avoids mentioning the Nazis or Confederates when he lists the foes America has defeated. My guess is at least one of his speechwriters believes the wrong side lost in WW2, if Hegseth doesn't.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Well, happy Charles Darwin is “very poorly today & very stupid & hate[s] everybody & everything” to all who celebrate, because he wrote those words in a letter to his friend (and author of Principles of Geology) Charles Lyell 161 years ago today

Where is her legal defense fund

Lol this is *actually* gonna annoy people. People hate their shit getting renamed more than they hate ICE kidnappings, expensive gas, etc

i thought her early stuff was too “not like the other girls” and didn’t enjoy her particularly until a lot more recently. her newer stuff has mature reflections of what it’s like to be a woman of a certain age, looking down the road at being past her prime

Look, let's clear this up. LLMs can't think or understand because those are evolved capabilities of embodied living organisms embedded in the physical and social world and LLMs aren't that. Don't make it harder than it is.

God, grant me the courage to change the things I can and incredible new powers to change the things I can't.

So, Banksy bought a used yacht, repaired it and retrofitted it to serve as a rescue boat to save migrants in the central Mediterranean. The whole project cost the artist $860,000. Since 2020, the boat has saved more than 3,800 people. londondaily.com/banksy-funds...

latest in a long running series of Republicans discovering that Republican policy preferences are bad when they’re applied to their loved ones

i have made contact with the crows

Birth of a Nation was highly controversial at the time. It wasn't, like, taken for granted as normal even then. It was banned in some places (1A wasn't what it is today on that). Wilson screening it in the White House was a statement, and such an unpopular one he had to halfheartedly walk it back.

idk why he’s insisting we should call what an LLM does “thinking” but not, say, a computer or a calculator or Siri or whatever

i think most of us agree, semantically, the word “understanding” connotes an experience that requires self awareness the models compute in ways that look like reasoning but that doesn’t mean they are experiencing anything

he’s going all-in on it because he is a true hater of the deep state. and the deep state wants the tech for itself alone and us not to be able to use it back

“sex-based rights” IS inherently a roll-back of universal human rights. the concept exists exclusively to serve that purpose, and no other

jackson lamb: would

An entirely reasonable organizational response from CNN would be that they will no longer host members of the administration as long as the administration bars them from the White House

The last time a paranoid despot militarized his capital city, he faced mass protests for stealing the election. A large portion of his own military, including the minister of defense & army vice chief of staff, defected to the opposition. Before long, he & all of his wife’s shoes fled into exile.

Trump saying we urgently need well stocked sniper nests overlooking the nation’s main location for political protest should ring alarm bells.

I think retirement age is one of the starkest differences between people with physically demanding jobs and those without. The former absolutely do not want to work longer where as the latter find it one of the least objectionable social security fixes.

the royal family in britain seems awful. it’s profane that the british people have to continue to foot the bill so they can pretend to be special

the scare mongering is because they desperately want to be the only ones using the tech

FBI warns ICE agents not to trust any women willing to date them gizmodo.com/fbi-warns-ic...

"People built the test, removed restraints, defined the objective, left a route open and decided not to stop what was happening. Calling the result 'rogue AI' does more than sensationalize it. It allows those human decisions to disappear quietly from the story" Gift link www.wsj.com/opinion/the-...

"tell donald. I want him to know it was me."

most of the people posting ai doom work for a government, foreign or domestic

Lotta the internet is poorly preserved & will be lost to time due to link rot, dead servers. The cost/legal liability means that firms can’t be relied upon to keep the training data itself indefinitely, so I wonder if LLMs that have ingested it end up the ultimate keepers of old online deep lore

why shouldn’t they be comfortable? americans have no intention of doing anything about it

You mean the state with Republican supermajorities in the House, the Senate, and the Supreme Court?

Wait. Why aren’t we talking about this?

we lost the $50 billion in affordable goods that would have allowed us to have higher discretionary incomes
