Aaron Swartz, coding prodigy and hacktivist who helped develop RSS and was a co-founder of Reddit, died by suicide after facing $1 million in fines and 35 years in prison for felony charges, just for downloading pdfs of research papers with the intention of making them accessible to the public.

My heart breaks for mathematicians whose lives and careers are being destroyed by AI — and especially this PhD student, who doesn’t even know he is a poet

Kai Shaikh, a Ph.D. student in mathematics at the University of Toronto, also currently at SLMath, observed that theorems are easy to use as benchmarks, but that they capture little of the wonderment at the heart of math. "Just like a photograph of a mile marker can't provide much of the value of actually going on a hike," he said,
"it would seem to me that proofs without stories, or even stories without struggle or mystery, and first glimpses of strange beasts, are not very meaningful or valuable to us humans."

Dems when a Democrat gets illegally raided by a fascist looking to shatter the party's power: This raises questions. We deserve transparency. Republicans when a Republican gets legally raided for all the crimes he committed: WE WILL KILL YOU IF YOU TRY THIS AGAIN. DON'T SLEEP, CUCKS.

I suspect both are actually necessary. The kind of practical demonstration at which video excels is tailored to generate wildly unearned confidence and confirmation bias. The forum tutorial is providing a systematic framework for understanding what’s happening in your car.

City governments are going to have to be both creative and bold when it comes to resisting ICE and the most obvious place to start here is pulling all, all, all NYPD cooperation, even incidental, with ICE. Let them do their own crowd control and traffic management.

The thing that frustrates me the most about Brennan and her ilk yammering on about Caitlin Clark being disrespected is that Clark is far and away the best-known, most promoted, most famous player in women's basketball, well beyond her actual (and considerable) accomplishments as an athlete!

You should have to smell the dead when you disinter them.

A chat request from a late friend
I recognize the pain of thinking if I could only talk to them one more time. It is among the more familiar human laments. But that's just the thing it is a human problem to be endured not a technological problem to be sold. Our capacity for loss – in fact the necessity of losing and having lost – is what makes us who we are. Individually and collectively. There is no workaround. There will be no workaround. And every step toward preventing that or perverting that is an affront to our humanity. Why not just taxidermy nana and prop her up at the Texas Chainsaw Massacre dinner table? At least there's something real and tangible about that. Undeniable in its sacrilege. You should have to smell the dead when you disinter them.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

So many beautiful moments born out of resisting that dim load’s horseshit parade, but each time I always remember we could have spent the last ten years building housing, restoring bridges/roads, getting off fossil fuels, on & on. We will piss all over the memory of it someday. It’s a piss legacy.

Wednesday’s primary is poised to bring new leadership into City Hall with enough support to limit rent increases next year. Legislation failed to get over the finish line earlier this year.

The hunger
Well we just got back from stringing up our weakest
friend in the middle of the town square for the
vampires to feast on overnight. No one liked the
actual doing of it when it came to doing it I’ll say that.
But the past is the past. Time now to hunker down
inside and wait for them to leave us alone for good.
Figure out tomorrow what to do with all these surplus
wooden crosses.
