Ask not what our information environment can do for you, but what you can do for our information environment!

Mahmoud Khalil is finally home with his beautiful wife and newborn son. Each one of the 104 days he spent detained was a grave injustice. From the moment of his detention, @ccrjustice.org + @aclu.org engaged my office as we worked closely to help secure his release. They did remarkable work here.

Can one ever be too aggressive in labeling electricity grid maps?

the ivies are a fuckin racket and prestige is a trap

No bullshit, the safest thing to do in the eventuality that some armed masked man in ill-fitting body armor attacks you or someone else is assume they are a criminal. This is unsustainable. People are going to get hurt or killed with all this cosplay going on.

"Lety" is hoeing, removing weeds from the lettuce plants in CAs Central Coast. She literally walks miles through the fields every day. She shares, "I'm tired from all the walking. The rows are extremely long. At the end of the day my hands hurt from hoeing." #WeFeedYou

i also cannot believe tim walz did this thing he did and then stopped, mostly because it isn’t true unbelievable, in the sense of not being believable. as in false. you might even call it a lie.

I STILL TO THIS DAY CANNOT BELIEVE THAT CHARLIE BROWN HAD HOES IN MULTIPLE AREA CODES, TOOK OVER THE ENTIRE PIMP GAME FROM LINUS, WHICH HAD HIM WEAPING IN HIS BLANKET AND THEN *** HE JUST GAVE THEM ALL AWAY*** Charlie Brown didn't have hoes. And Tim Walz never stopped calling Republicans weird.

People need to do a much better job of distinguishing between “X didn’t say Y” and “the opaque algorithm on the Nazi microblogging website did not show me Y”, easily half the time people give a version of “why aren’t Dems saying Y” it’s the most recent post on several senators’ accounts

Again, Walz called them weird until the end of the campaign. The media just stopped covering it after two weeks.

I’ll be at #RSS2025 from June 21 to June 23! I’ll be giving a presentation on ManiSkill3 on June 21, 5:30 PM We will also have two live demo sessions, on June 21, 12:30-2:00PM and 6:30-8:00PM. Swing by to see live demos of zero shot RGB sim2real, cool sim demos, and VR teleop!

Qwen 3 From Scratch @sebastianraschka.com has changed from using Llama 3 to Qwen 3 for experiments Qwen is narrower, slower but uses less memory. It probably works better bc of the Q/K norm in the grouped attention github.com/rasbt/LLMs-f...

I've said this on multiple occasions but the inventor of QM were really bad at math by modern standards. Heisenberg didn't know what a matrix was until Jordan told him. Think this is probably major reason QM interpretations resounding stink

I wish lamé were more popular

So now there may be a war because #TrumpleThinSkin couldn't stand an Obama success?

Abolish state mandated monopolies (IP) and you'll never have to worry about this number

The 5th circuit? Really?

that HLE score is no joke and they’re planning on open sourcing it!

One fascinating trend in AI research lately has been the multitude of self-improving AI systems. And AI industry leaders like Sam Altman warn of drastic consequences in the very near future. In my opinion, if we were to see an intelligence explosion, we would see the evidence now. So do we?

This is very true! We have absolutely _no idea_ what's going on behind the veil

hahahah

THEY DIDN'T STOP DOING IT. THERE WERE BILLBOARDS GOING UP ALL THROUGH OCTOBER. YOUR PERCEPTION OF EVENTS IS NOT OBJECTIVE.

😍 I just love timelapse movies. It’s unbelievable that all of this happens in such a tiny fly! These cells don’t just move—they shape the unique spiral structure of the 🪰 testis. Amazing post by @maikbischoff.bsky.social — proof that science is art!!

I love these hand drawn diagrams so much. Perfection.

Any rational analysis here would of course acknowledge that high interest rates are obviously not working to lower the price of beef

I've been reading Santiago by Mike Resnick and Resnick is a phenomenal author. Just really really good writing. Thing is we've just met Santiago and we're basically in the John Galt speech phase of the book where we hear Resnick's philosophy and it fell completely flat.

😂 champagne for my real friends and real pain for my sham friends

Proud to say that @publicenterprise.bsky.social worked with @scientistsorg.bsky.social to publish this great dive into the financial mechanisms state+local govts can deploy to scale up clean energy deployment. Public financial leadership is what will drive decarbonization: fas.org/publication/...
