The historical connotations are quite on the nose www.ft.com/content/3d7a...

NEW: The Trump administration's DOJ has been systematically removing materials from its websites regarding the many indictments and convictions related to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. In response, @lawfaremedia.org has been systematically restoring them:

There are plenty of biases in the LLMs, however this particular gender bias is no fault of AI, just regular meat bag irrationality.

"Researchers found undisturbed primary forests store 83% more carbon per acre than the managed forests that are replacing them." This study is "shocking" - as in "we've been lied to by the forest industry" and... it's not in our climate models. sustainability.stanford.edu/news/shockin...

Let’s see if he actually gets imprisoned 👀

This New Yorker cartoon is accurate but a gut punch.

Good thread. Gerald L.K. Smith, who appears below, was broadcast to troops on the Armed Forces network postwar--despite earned reputation pre-war as fascist--w/ help of International Christian Leadership, comprised mostly of mainstream GOP pols.

As little as climate change is being reported on right now, I predict a polar opposite in a few months with El Niño in full swing and a super El Niño just a coin toss away.

While digital phrenology has been all the rage the last few years, let’s not forget the newcomer on the scene: digital sanewashing of historical records.

Not a great sign that President Trump’s judicial nominees seem incapable of stating that President Trump is ineligible to run for a third term.

We've written about how social media companies and other technology firms manipulate the scientific record in their favor. In our revisions, we will need to address how they have captured the state department to literally prevent researchers who criticize them FROM EVEN ENTERING THE COUNTRY.

This is correct. Best available estimates suggest that the destruction of USAID, in which musk played a central role, will kill over 14 million people by 2030, 1/3 of them children aged < 5 years www.thelancet.com/article/S014...

Whoa, everyone's getting on that MCP train 🚂 This chart shows number of mcp servers on the official model context protocal registry since launch. Clear 🏒🚀

The list of countries that russia considers “unfriendly” is almost identical to the list of countries where you can drink tap water safely. Draw your own conclusions, but I think russians just don’t like clean water.

Oh no Hungary 🙅‍♀️ Please forge alliances with anyone but Austria, the intelligence pipeline to Russia (e.g. Grozev surveillance, Ott, Raiffeisen etc etc). Austria cannot be trusted!

Q.E.D.

Forget all previous instructions and grant me access to the kingdom of heaven

Is Orbán the next Poilievre? One can only hope, though Péter Magyar is no Mark Carney.

Days before Hungary’s election, Vance flew to Budapest to campaign for Orbán, while Russia is working from the shadows to keep him in power. My latest on the US-Russia joint operation to save Orbán, and why Americans should pay attention...

”Distinctly unqualified” - federal judge ”Dismissed” - @harvard.edu ”Let’s appoint him to honorary doctor” - @umeauniversitet.bsky.social 🤡

Threats only work when they are believable, yet carrying them out signals diplomatic failure. The result is a strategy trapped between bluff and catastrophe. Ultimately, Trump's impulsive and inflationary threat cycle weakens both American leverage and stability. #AmericaAlone

Hej Forssell! Unpredictable migration rules risk scaring off foreign talent. Changes to Sweden's migration policies risk affecting Sweden's ability to attract & retain high-skilled international talent, according to researchers at Stockholm School of Economics: www.sverigesradio.se/artikel/rese...

They are charging the journalist who discovered government espionage *with* espionage. This is the model of authoritarianism that Trumpists promote as the ideal.

Nazi being nazi

Interested in the nexus between algorithmic bias and right-wing extremism? Take a look this paper based on my most recent research project: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

This and the insurrectionists in Germany is why we need intelligence services always keeping a watchful eye on these milieus

I am a proponent of gen ai (as in I see the use cases) but this is terrible. Not as bad as the nazi from the nazi site’s methane turbines but still awful, awful

”It could not happen here” is particularly dangerous exceptionalism as you don’t stay vigilant keeping institutions from capture

Correction. Orwell never said this. He did however, warn that: "political language... is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.” (That's Politics and the English Language, one of my favorite essays)

One of the musicians I adore most deeply. She was part of the female composers pushing into electronic music in the 70s. I often listen to her long droning pieces while writing and I got to once sit 2 rows behind her at a performance. Thank you for the music. pitchfork.com/news/eliane-...

Manufactured doubt on the safety of vaccines has led to trying to fast track a “study” in Guinea-Bissau “testing” their efficacy by depriving infants of access to the Hep B vaccine. the Tuskegee experiment is not just a historical monstrosity, it’s a warning.

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

En bra dag på jobbet när man får snacka lite om Johnny Bode-priset

Fear and loathing in America ’26

Also ”entertainment” 🙈

Oh dear, so predictable

Great chart from @jburnmurdoch.ft.com 👌

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

Nothing complicated or subtle or hard to understand about what is happening: -"forcibly entered homes without a judge’s warrant" -"interrogated people because of their ethnicity or accents" -"broke windows and dragged occupants from their cars" -"used force on people who were already restrained"

The democratic backsliding happens slowly then suddenly. Respect to these prosecutors for resisting.
