Did you know 💭❓The "Dutch Angle" shot, wherein the camera is tilted horizontally on its axis, creating an unnerving, odd scene composition, is named this way because Dutch people are strange and off-putting

Remarkable article, articulating a straightforwardly fascist ideal and developing an elaborately distorted Theory of Everything around the fixed prior that Israel is good. The author is Bari Weiss's mentor and this is as clear a look as you're going to get into Bari's worldview.

Years from now, it will be obvious why, in this specific moment in human history, as we faced high-powered technologies and political ideologies aimed at paving the way for their dominance over humans, what emerged—what had to emerge—was an intense, global debate about, of all things, Zionism. tabletmag.com/feature/zionis…

A drum machine doesn't train on millions of drummers' performances without consent and then hollows out the economic infrastructure that sustains drummers as a working class. A drum machine doesn't raise the question of whether drumming as a skill will atrophy over a generation.

People had the same problem with Drum Machines and Synthesizers. Hip Hop would not exist without Tech.

Beyond the coding error, the paper also:
(1) selectively removed periods of high-growth-high-debt economies in the 1940s (Canada, New Zealand, Australia), and
(2) used an unconventional weighting to reduce the importance of longer periods for countries.
It was not good.

Absolutely mind boggling.. "in their Excel spreadsheet, Reinhart and Rogoff had not selected the entire row when averaging growth figures: they omitted data from Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada and Denmark. In other words, they had accidentally only included 15 of the 20 countries under analysis in their key calculation. When that error was corrected, the “0.1% decline” data became a 2.2% average increase in economic growth." And as the underlaying New York Review article notes, the erroneous "claim was widely cited by politicians and accepted as a factual justification for austerity, to the extent that Paul Krugman thought it “may have had more immediate influence on public debate than any previous paper in the history of economics.”"

Thought I remembered this guy! Back in September 2024 he falsified a bunch of benchmarks about his open source model, which was really just llama 3 70b or possibly a Claude wrapper. Great stuff
