The basic problem here is that human consciousness is presently inaccessible except from the inside. So *everyone’s* theories about what consciousness is are ungrounded in observations of the world. At best we have some behaviors and neurocorrelates.

I just saw an early 20 something’s TikTok that asked if you could drink 100 beers in a month for a million dollars and you know what I’m glad that the youth are built different now. good for them

The irony of doing this and then blowing up the millenarian former president of Iran…

If Irans plan is to wage war on all the US allies in the region with drones until the US is forced to make a business decision, I gotta say I've heard of worse tactics to destabilize the region. It's not a bad plan.

nature is so beautiful

Wait those assholes made the bad time permanent?

Prof. Robert Pape: In my book I invented the concept of Coercive Air Power as a cautionary tale US Department of Defence: At long last, we have created Coercive Air Power from classic political science work Bombing to Win: Air Power and Coercion in War.

Information is a subjective interpretation of data.

The intersection of "we're distributing our stocks to prevent them from getting got" and "no one has any idea where it is anymore" is uhhhh real and not cash money

I have added a new tutorial on discrete diffusion models: github.com/gpeyre/ot4ml

Claude Code and the web ui are basically different things. Like… Code might just work better, but you could also ask Code to make a program to check its work. So you get a model which is ok at stuff, but can make tools that do things better. And then you send it off again with those tools.

i do think this is a good argument for blaming the aggressor for pretty much everything that happens. if you believe your enemies can destroy your centralized command and control then it’s pretty natural to devolve it. And then it’s natural that the devolved elements start just blasting whatever.

One of the more negative aspect of using these tools is that if you mention the wrong detail you lock that in soooo hard. Doing a minimal prompt followed by a corrective statement gets you way more mileage. (In other words the best practices are wrong unless you are hyper focused on autonomy).

Honestly, the fact that distillation works is pretty shocking… If there’s one thing that i absolutely would not have believed 10 years ago… it’s that you could produce enough / good enough synthetic data to do this.

This is like the knowledge check on annual security training

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to bomb this elementary school full of kids because he thinks it makes him look cool. also his scheming viziers will be betting money on it for fun. good luck soldier

The third one seems pretty gratuitous…

You can see how he got got by a mirror…

Drop site news trying to rat fuck kat for being based…lol

This sign goes hard

Not to be a bitch but after watching this video I have concluded this bird seems dumb as hell. Don’t dig around in your own torso, pull out one of your own feathers, drop it, and then look at ME like “What happened.” Like do we NEED a tall duck?

Oh, word?

oh thank god. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

it's not the issue of this story, but it is a transparent example of how the "cars are freedom" narrative is a complete farce. when the state controls your movement and can immobilize you on a whim, you are not free. car dependency is an arm of fascism for the car *IS* fascism and must be abolished.

We had it all man

Gerber Singles (1974-1974): Assuming that single people were as helpless to feed themselves as babies, Gerber put out a line of single-serve heat and eat meals and desserts for adults in their signature glass jars, such as beef burgundy, sweet n sour pork, and turkey mornay

We should not force agents to use canvas.

I’ve been talking about Alysa Liu’s story about her quitting skating only to come back and become even better because she did it for herself and this came to me in a dream…

People keep reminding me to block them today.

I remember the first time I went up to the High Line park I was so enamored with it… but the second time I was like what the actual fuck why isn’t there a train here? Anywhere a train has been turned into a greenway I get the same ick now.

It’s basically big oats.

The basic reason you don’t get a nazi tattoo and then act super shady about it is so that this sort of statement can be made unambiguously.

This is working is much more plausible than the nootropic shit everyone is also on.

This photo is so awesome.

Haha! *starts putting on the acclaimed 1995 album "Different Class" by the band Pulp*

honestly I am still naive enough that when I saw the police jacket go by I was like ” ok this will be resolved now”

someone waited their ENTIRE LIFE to write that headline...

Well said. Greedy fucking shitbags can go to hell.

Let's try this again 👋 Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA. I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?

The salt about this… lol.
