This. This is the correct, science-backed, responsible framing. Wish more news outlets did it like the CBC.

1/ Trump signed 50% tariffs on Canada today under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930. Worth walking through the legal mechanics, the USMCA leverage play behind it, and what it costs.

As a non-profit org, I'm sure this means huge investments incoming for grass roots football for the host nations especially, right? Right?

"Special circumstances" ? The legislature only sat for ~65 days this year (the least since reliable records are available). Peel isn't that far away. Just go home. Same ppl who tell you school boards are irresponsible, who suggest insane tunnels + convention centres nobody needs, a jet for DF.

We appreciate the love ❤️ But limited engagement and few followers on Bsky makes some (not us!) question whether it's worth it Be sure to follow (and share with your ML friends!) if you want to see more updates from ICML!

I would have said "Comte Figure-de-Poubelle", and "Conte Figura-di-Bidone". I can post this because BlueSky is a pedant's dreamland

Just a reminder that there's only about a week left to leave comments on the OMB proposal that will cripple federally funded research. Here's my attempt to convince you that you should, along with info on how to do so effectively.

I will literally follow any and all ML PhD students on this website, where you at

All of these can be true at the same time: 1) The suspension reversal was corrupt 2) No FIFA rules were violated (Art 27) 3) Art 27 is ridiculous 4) This is not nearly FIFA's most corrupt action 5) FIFA's history of corruption doesn't justify this corruption 6) The red card by VAR was BS

4/ Remember that flu vaccine that RFK Jr.’s FDA said they wouldn’t review and then, after immense backlash, reviewed again? Well, we got exciting news: An FDA advisory panel voted 9-0 to back Moderna's mRNA flu vaccine, mFlusiva.

Dubious. Leao had himself an insane game, created a ton of danger, hit the crossbar with what would have been goal of the tournament, and he's trashed on this garbage board?

Succinct, elegant piece by @danyaalraza.com and Braden Manns on what "dual practice" is and does. Where's the federal Minister of Health? This is a clear violation of the Canada Health Act. Don't look away. #Never51st isn't only about fighting against Trump's chaos. It's about fighting *for* us.

Age-standardized cancer death rates fell from over 150 per 100,000 Americans in 1990 to less than 100 as of 2022. A one-third drop in just over 10 years. ourworldindata.org/grapher/canc...

The Dufferin bus lanes are an unjustly delayed triumph. Sufferin no more!

holy sh*t, STAT is not messing around "STAT does not know who the patient is. But given the patient demographics and the unusual nature of the application, STAT asked the White House whether the patient was President Trump" www.statnews.com/2026/06/23/e...

Why is it that some days, you have zero useful ideas, and other days you get multiple really solid research ideas? What the hell, brain, pace yourself.

We don’t always know what problems are hard for LLMs. So devs evaluate on tasks HUMANS find hard or on broad benchmarks. What if we could instead anticipate which scenarios a model will fail on—all without evaluating specific input examples? 🧵NEW PAPER by @jenniferlumeng.bsky.social

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

He sure as hell does!

In film, "we'll fix it in post" is what you say when something went wrong on set and you don't want to redo it. AI research has made it our entire methodology: train the model, then patch whatever comes out. Our new ICML oral argues this can't be the basis of a science of AI. 🧵

Anthropoic founder: “How will we ensure the gains of AI are shared globally? We do not have a mechanism for this.” @bcmerchant.bsky.social: “They're called taxes. And just because AI companies don't really like that idea, they don't like the concept of being taxed, doesn't mean they don't exist.”

The pedestrianization of Broadway through the heart of Manhattan just expanded, and it's glorious:

Incredible! Scientists receive a rare standing ovation after announcing that a new treatment can double the survival time for pancreatic cancer, the deadliest cancer which was once considered “undruggable.” When we fund and support science, we can achieve anything! (Video: Dr. Wish Dhillon)

"One thing that actually propelled actual US greatness after World War II was tying large scientific investments to a non-partisan, merit-based process. But that is not the way of Trump, who wants to extend tools of control and retribution over science." Trump is wrecking everything. Illuminating:

The old centre was 568,000 ft.². The new one is 280,000 ft.² (The province is floating a misleading number of 400k but that reflects a math error, plus 120k is a parking garage.) The old building’s exhibition space was 134k. The new one has 120k. Not bigger. Smaller.

Doug Ford balked on his home building promises / & reforms by giving in to his nimby base, people who are also afraid of people without homes. Good luck Ontario.

The Church Street pedestrianization project is APPROVED 20-4. Church between Wellesley Street East and Alexander Street will be made car-free between June 19 and August 21.

Councillors will propose literally any approach to pedestrian safety, as long as it does not include requiring drivers to pay attention and follow the law

"A SAFER ONTARIO MEANS FEWER STOLEN CARS so you can speed through school zones at 90km/hr with complete impunity & Doug Ford's blessing since he banned speed cameras to allow you to do that"

The form, revealed! If you go ahead through the hoops, you might as well send the same material to your MPP, MP, city rep, friends, family, neighbourhood association — the sky is the limit! I’d love to hear from anyone who is inspired to have their say! #NoJetsTO #TOpoli #ONpoli

From Safe Parkside: look what happened on Parkside Drive after Premier Doug Ford banned speed cameras.

Struggling desperately to get to the end of this dreadful paper I've been assigned to review. So, so boring.

Bhattacharya: "I don't see a bottleneck now.... My job is to make sure every single dollar goes out, and it will go out by the end of the year on excellent science. A lot of the concerns, it just seems like political noise to me. It's not reality." Reality... 🧵1/6 www.27unihted.org/jay-fact-che...

Today, we published 61 transcripts and excerpts of testimony heard by the Fulton County special purpose grand jury. The transcripts include the never-before-seen testimony of prominent Trump allies, including Rudy Giuliani, Lindsey Graham, and Cleta Mitchell. bsky.app/profile/anna...

Seems rude to point it all out sheesh

1/7 New paper accepted as ICML spotlight arxiv.org/abs/2605.03517! We unify self-supervised learning (SSL) algorithms (e.g., contrastive, VICReg, stopgrad) via latent distribution matching (LDM), which matches an induced latent distribution to an explicit latent model.

go.bsky.app/AJubGZF I made this starter pack with ML/AI companies on Bluesky. For now it's a bit short, but we hope to see it growing as more companies land on here. If you are interested, please follow them to encourage them staying on Bluesky. If I missed any, pls let me know to add them!

NEW: That didn’t take long. It looks like freedom of information requests relating to ministers and their offices are already being knocked back by some FOI departments really only hours after the budget received royal assent. #OnPoli

@tombogert.bsky.social any idea if Martino's son is coaching with him?

Why is it that when a driver nearly hits you with their car, in a situation where it's clearly their fault (not paying attention, looking at their phone, etc), they get *so mad* at you for shouting to get their attention to stop?
