all the racists who spent the last eighty years inventing cute little “you can’t prove I meant it” workarounds to do nazi signs probably feel pretty silly now that it turns out you can just sieg heil in public

hey @mattyglesias.bsky.social, the piece that you link to here — my piece — does not say that “all DEI critics want to reimpose segregation” and i would appreciate it if you didn’t lie to your audience about what my work says.

I’m as cynical as anyone else (more, actually) but stfg I’m gonna start blocking the petulant pinecones who doom all over my mentions whenever I dare mention anything that provides a glimmer of hope. it’s exhausting.

Chat idk where to seek hope, all I know is that giving up is lame, so just keep going

One of the greatest tricks that Donald Trump and Elon Musk ever pulled is to convince millions of people that DOGE is about government efficiency. It's about narcissistic, resentful destruction: The Death of Government Expertise. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

When it’s over, there will be attempts to spin an epic narrative about this. Realist IR theorists will come up with some balance of power BS, the media will try to make it some kind of operatic tragedy, etc. Resist this. It was stupid and pathetic and senseless. Don’t let them gaslight you.

My department of government efficiency is determining whether or not “destroying 500 million dollars worth of stuff for absolutely no reason other than being a dickhead” is an effective marker of competency

I mean the problem is that Democrats are like “we did talk about the threat of fascism” and voters were like “but my eggs”

I just found out Winona Ryder was instrumental in getting Bram Stoker’s Dracula made, she is the one who gave Coppola the script, and she got Richard E. Grant cast in it. And now I love her even more.

Letting rich men rule instead of witches is a hexcrime. Though if the rich men were witches they would mostly be hexpests.

i think everyone is surprised that a diffusion model can actually produce passable work because every extant diffusion model is tuned specifically to produce garbage because none of the people working on them actually respect art

One of the things about _good_ uses of LLMs that I think hasn't really gotten into the public consciousness is that hallucinations mostly happen (on moderate and bigger models) when you ask it about things _it_ knows, rather than when you give the LLM a set of things and tell it to work with them.

there's just a silly amount of incredibly idiotic takes about AI because people are mad at tech bros, widespread intellectual theft, and crappy generative AI. And fair. But I keep reading takes that basically say the equivalent of, 'no one will ever use google maps because paper maps are better'.

they're not going to even LoRA it. they're just going to rawdog the text straight into a RAG pipeline with a system prompt telling it that race science is real and it's going to give seventy-four billion dollars to the Mengele Institute for Orgone Therapy

WIRED’s political coverage has been excellent, well-sourced, and thorough. I subscribed … fuck, was it really just a week ago? I subscribed one decade-long week ago and have gotten my money’s worth for the entire year already, EASY.

I personally think "trans people exist, are good, and have rights" can, if you try, be more popular than "let's release insurrectionists to pursue their passions of child porn and crime" or "what if high school interns spent 17 hours a day destroying everything you depend on"

you are not going to learn anything meaningful about the mechanisms of elections by observing hyper-online social media users, and in fact, all evidence points to that causing people to understand them way less
