This is, in many ways, the dynamic that defines reactionary centrism: the right must be understood, but never blamed. The left can be blamed, but need not be understood." This is very, very good.
Biggest problem is bashing dems/labour becomes a cultural signifier to the point that the party can change but the culture does not like we did in states.

Understandable, but even if Biden had been total shit, it'd still be better than what we've got now. Cannot oversell how much this sucks.
honestly think when the most senior people in government start just popping off with stuff that has no apparent basis in fact to protect their leader, we are past the “theory” part of “conspiracy”
Sci-hub blocked in India. Good luck with that. torrentfreak.com/sci-hub-bloc...
Dems did something for the people but nobody was willing to wear Biden on their t-shirt. I know Labour might not be the ideal vehicle for socialism, but they're going to be better than reform! Trust me!
American here: don't bitch about Labour unless you actually want reform. It's bad comms. People don't hear you saying "Don't vote reform" they hear you say bad things about Labour. We just did this over here. Take my advice.
How? This site is basically leftist kiwifarms
Seems problematic the president of the country is saying “we’re going to wipe them out” when talking about a US city and there is zero pushback on that
Cry about it
Neurotechnology regulation needs to be grounded in international human rights, neuroscientist @rafaelyuste.bsky.social and lawyer Jared Genser tell EFF’s Cindy Cohn and @thejasonkelley.com on “How to Fix the Internet.”
Alberta was a failed joint project of UofT, UIUC, and the Colorado School of Mines to breed a strain of Texans that would be cold weather hardy
And I think about all of you, too.

cosigned; it's not coding, it's deciding what to code
So the previous ruling said it's fine to buy and scan books for training data. At $30/book and 100 million books in the Library of Congress that's only $3B total. That's pretty feasible!
Enjoy prison bitch
"...As the most powerful executives in America continue to kowtow to a president who is systematically dismantling the foundations of democracy, it may be time for another axiom: The only principle is power." www.wired.com/story/tech-c...
On a little higher level, Democrats are doing industrial policy to create unprofitable gluts and derisking the downside, with two caveats: 1. It's federal dems 2. it's all energy policy [or was] for now
Position 1: landlord should not make any money Position 2: we should build more housing Synthesis: build so much housing that landlords can’t make any money
qwen3-235B seems like an opus model
This is pathetic. We're setting records on artificial scarcity
Hahaha
Weak
it's brimming with qualia way other models just aren't I dunno
Are the 2-bit quants any good? Seems even 4-bit you lose a lot
GLM-4.5 Air isn't that far of a drop from the full 355B model and it can run on a $2000 AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 with 128 GiB RAM
Good paper on continual learning that validates my basic intuition from reading earlier literature on replay et al: That actually continual learning probably isn't that hard and the problem is mostly that people aren't trying. arxiv.org/abs/2403.08763
does anyone know how to set the capabilities of a FastA2A agent card because I can't find shit. Not even looking through source code.
oh my god
Donald Trump going on stage after Joe Biden like a comedian going on stage after Dane Cook in the early aughts.
The US regime is conducting ideological purges of the federal government, deleting entire agencies because they dared touch inconvenient topics, prosecuting political enemies.. and fools like Nate Silver are still complaining that LIBERALS are too close-minded and censorious????
You now live in a country where if you support an idea like "Trans people should have equal legal rights" or "Black people suffer from the effects of discrimination," your government will openly persecute you, including by firing you if you work for it, and even looking for ways to prosecute you.
Agreed! Can't really pay the bourgeoisie not to sabotage production. They're not doing it because they simply forgot. They're doing it because it is in their material interest to sabotage production and skew state capacity to prevent things being built by not them.
it's why i've come to dislike the abstraction of "state capacity," as if there were some singular meter hovering at the top of the screen in a 4x game i think it can confuse us as to what our problems actually are
Question I always ask myself about when I'm thinking about how governments structure markets.
cui bono?
when you put it that way there doesn't seem to be much point in giving him any airtime does it?
"LLMs aren't and can never be [100%] accurate therefore they are useless" - genuinely confused about how people who say this collaborate and interact with other humans...
I wasn't trying to be mean, but I'm just sort of normal [puns intended]

I can't get enough Indian food but that is beside the point!
Then you don't know what you're talking about because you never tried the good stuff!
Where fajitas were invented. It's Mexican food my friend! Mexico is a big country. Used to be even bigger. There are lots of different types of food in Mexico and formerly Mexico.
Did you ever make it Ninfa's? The original on Navigation?
What part of Texas?
Go wash your mouth out with soap
I don't have a single meeting today
Worker pain! This is Powell's lane. This is what he wanted. Will he cut?
Don't forget astronomical interest rates despite two years with no appreciable inflation. That shit is growth negative
What America voted for
numbers do always tend to benefit the left
Cut ffs
Trump has always been a media byproduct. He's an entertainer!
Please remember the job numbers are almost always bad in September. Annual dip.
This is the one
Thinking about the Hancox-Li banger where she says "we've got state capacity but we use it to prevent building"
I already beat another guy who cut Medicaid, gave tax breaks to billionaires, and hounded multiple women who accused him of sexual harassment — might as well debate the one actually calling the shots.
Minute I got mem0 working I was like "okay now here's why I should make this native DSPy for optimization" hahah
This is great because I was fooling around with mem0 the other night and it's a pain in the fucking ass to configure. Glad letta is offering memory layer.
A great example of "California isn't Berkeley, and Berkeley isn't even Berkeley"

Mamdani: Why should I debate Trump's puppet when I could debate Trump himself? If Trump is serious about this, he should come to New York City. We can have as many debates as he wants about why he is cutting snap benefits for hungry New Yorkers just to fund tax cuts for his billionaire donors
"Fine! I'll just play with the concentration camp I already have!" vibes

I disagree with substantial parts of this (Maxfield Parrish slander, “the image isn’t in the model”) but agree with the first part. A lot of creative work is cringey but still serves a purpose for a particular audience.
SLAMDBOOK
I'm working on getting product folks with more humanities backgrounds much deeper into the technical side of things where I work. All the bluster of a lot of these people about being luddites dies when the zoom meeting starts and its time to prioritize deadlines
YES
Golden age of liberal intellectualism
holy shit do we have a project veritas now
Without an analysis of surplus-value, rent, positional signalling, and the neoliberal discipline machine, a Dyson sphere is just a trillion-dollar disco ball bouncing Veblen’s conspicuous energy back at us—in vacuum this time.
Post-scarcity as *real* social freedom cannot be engineered before you know how the lash of coercive value operates in the first place.
It’s a cargo-cult mirage: draw a halo of solar collectors around the sun, declare “scarcity solved,” and then plug the resulting exajoules straight back into the same market logic that turns planetary chattel into coin.
Y'all think I'm playing!?
Another feature every ChatGPT clone has to support hahaha
The reason coding agents won't end up saving anyone any time is because now i can be in meetings all day and still implement a new feature just by yelling at the robot, and meetings always expand to fill all available space
High price of a Veblen good is not a bug but a feature
