Would rather be obvious and right than esoteric and stupid. Liberal with Chinese characteristics.

@nytimes If I weren't naive, I might think that headline writers ENJOY contrasting a crime's grisliness against the perpetrator's outward normalcy to create narrative tension and sell newspapers.

@pauldgross I don't know if Bibi and his government definitively represent Zionism, but if he doesn't, the alternative is further right.

Two groups of diaspora Jews that I have interactions with on social media who intensely frustrate me: 1. Those Jewish progressives who’ve turned anti-Zionist because they stupidly believe Bibi and his government definitively represent Zionism. (1/2)

This was me at Citifield last season being IGNORED by Mr. Met! Yesterday Mr. AND Mrs. Met were hugging and kissing our Antisemite Mayor @NYCMayor! Easy to conclude that Mr. Met is an Antisemite!!!!!

Here’s a moonshot idea for New York City: swimmable rivers. Let’s think big again.

In 25 years I have never actually heard an explanation for what the US actually did to Al Qaeda that made the 90s bombing and September 11th attack constitute "blowback".
Transphobes eat sh*t@neverpilled

@PoliticSuave Blowback is a bitch. And I witnessed 9/11.

@steady_drumbeat @mh012012 @rfuzzlemuzz @ClementDelangue Yes because if in fact what is exceptional here is a harness willing to spend millions on granular analysis then this whole staged release thing reads more as a PR stunt, an attempt to create a mythos if you will.

"But here is what we found when we tested: We took the specific vulnerabilities Anthropic showcases in their announcement, isolated the relevant code, and ran them through small, cheap, open-weights models. Those models recovered much of the same analysis. Eight out of eight models detected Mythos's flagship FreeBSD exploit, including one with only 3.6 billion active parameters costing $0.11 per million tokens. A 5.1B-active open model recovered the core chain of the 27-year-old OpenBSD bug." aisle.com/blog/ai-cybers…

@femboyaliens32 @justalexoki @dfgdsfgxcf If you come to my house and try to sell me something, but before you get your pitch out, I tell you, "Get off my porch, I don't want what you're selling," then you would be wrong to say "he doesn't know what he wants" because "he doesn't know what he's missing."

@elikowaz @IhabHassane Your personal opposition is completely irrelevant, I have no idea why you would mention it if not to distract. What is the Israeli government's position on the matter? Does it apply its civil law to them? As you know, it does. So Israel does not believe this is an "occupation."

@IhabHassane I oppose the settlements. But under international law, the West Bank is still classified as a military occupation — the settlements don’t change that designation. Half of that 750,000 is East Jerusalem anyway, which is a different legal category.

This is not a serious understanding of history. Apartheid South Africa had a formal legal architecture of racial separation — pass laws, bantustans, codified by race. Israel has Arab citizens, Arab judges, Arab members of Knesset. Even the West Bank is a military occupation — a different legal and moral category.
Zachary Foster@_ZachFoster

Apartheid became part of the name of the country, as in, “apartheid South Africa.” Apartheid Israel should be the same. The word Israel should never be mentioned without the word Apartheid.

The public has been cry-wolfed about this twenty times by Anthropic already. They’re not listening anymore. This is the reason why we need adult voices in the room who are willing to be precise and able to avoid psychosis when speaking on the capabilities of these things. Otherwise we just get “the world is ending” twenty times and the public starts ignoring it. We can’t trust Anthropic to properly judge the capabilities of its own models anymore.

@TheOmniZaddy @Ian_Gay_briel This is true, but the relevant fact here is that Israel didn't "find itself" in this position. It engineered this demographic catastrophe with full foreknowledge.

3 years ago I came up w/ an idea for a 'Cajun Trump supporter who’s upset about "drain the swamp" because he feels it’s unfair to the Bayou.' Rep. Tim Burchett, yesterday: "Everybody talks about this place being a daggum swamp. It's not a swamp. A swamp is something cool God created. It filters water, animal life lives and flourishes around it."

Rep. Tim Burchett drops a bombshehll on insider trading by stating: "Washington isn't just a swamp, it's a sewer of corruption enriching from taxpayers' money and it needs to stop. Everybody wants to knock Pelosi; she's not even in the top 10."

@steady_drumbeat Politics in Western and Central Asia is pretty much rival factions accusing each other of being in bed with Jews. It's okay if you were ignorant of this fact. You just update your thoughts and move forward.
