You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.
Jeffrey Epstein emailing Peter Thiel: Finding things on their way to collapse was much easier than finding the next bargain. ... Return to tribalism. Counter to globalization. Amazing new alliances.

A Green Party colleague just shared this graphic from Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor. It sums up Israel's genocide in Gaza in appalling and concise detail. #Israel #Gaza #Genocide

Wrote something combining threads from here & elsewhere on meaningful consent, bias, dis- & misinformation, and harms to critical thinking & skills development and social interaction in the context of "AI." Here's "Failures of “AI” Promise: Critical Thinking, Misinformation, Prosociality, & Trust":

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
Bronze plaque saying "A Letter to the Future. Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier. In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it.  August 2019. 415ppm CO2"

Community organizing update from the Oregon coast: We asked people with lived food insecurity experience what they actually needed. Turns out it's NOT what we thought. Water-only prep items (many families have no milk/eggs). Seasonings (dignity = flavor). #MutualAid #CommunityOrganizing #FoodJustice

Those who want the world to be more cruel are allowed freedom to imagine the world they want, to strategise a way to get there, and to try, over and over again, until they get it. Those who want it to be less cruel are told "fuck off you idiot, are you mad?"

When a typo in your Google search leads to new and exciting philosophical positions
AI Overview: "Dental realism"refers to the philosophical debate about whether teeth exist independently of human perception, a concept rooted in metaphysical realism. While realism asserts an objective reality for teeth, idealist philosophies contend that teeth's existence is tied to our consciousness and perception. Philosophers use this idea, for example, to discuss the ethics of tooth extraction, examining whether a procedure impacts a real entity or merely a subjective experience.

Being good at critique or analysis and being good at building/ organizing/ problem solving are two distinct skill sets and it's rare someone has both and the idea that they're complimentary and one follows the other is probably the largest epistemological error of the left

The weird new ant paper that shows queens laying eggs of a completely different species has me thinking that more species are probably cloning sperm in their spermathecae than we’d thought. After all, most queens only mate once and cloning would be a great mechanism for keeping the party going.

Fittingly enough, OpenAI’s description of the logo says: “The design embodies the fluidity and warmth of human-centered thinking through the use of circles, while right angles introduce the precision and structure that technology demands.” There are no circles or right angles in it.
