🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡 Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong. Here's the whole sequence:

MacFarlane: The Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio has got the same issue. Last year, they paid $50,000 for diesel to transport their food. Now, they’re paying $150,000 for the diesel to transport their food.

Saw a woman on TikTok who said she quit corporate at age 46 to become a beekeeper because “I would literally rather get stung by 10,000 bees than write ‘per my last email’ again” and you know what? I respect that

No president has ever gone into a midterm election as unpopular as Trump is today. Not even George W. Bush in 2006. Trump's net approval is twice as low as it was at this point in 2018. blog.fiftyplusone.news/p/no-preside...

Second this. Had LD last year and was very sick, and multiple doctors misdiagnosed. The thing to know about Lyme rash is that it doesn’t have to be a bullseye.

One thing not getting as much attention re: Dario's essay. In it, he talks about the need for third party evaluators to review models for safety. But a few days before the essay, Anthropic... refused to submit its latest models to the UK's evaluator: www.ft.com/content/560e...

Anthropic withheld latest AI model from UK testing agency
Decision to exclude Aisi has prompted fears inside British government of protectionist shift among tech groups

For those who are new, Joe DiGenova has spent the last 30 years baselessly accusing Democrats of committing crimes. If he is saying publicly the Trump administration pushed him out because he wouldn’t bring cases because there was no evidence, things are really bad.

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”

this is A. outrageous and despicable behavior by the worst people alive and B. appears to be merely incidental news in a giant breakthrough in mathematics cims.nyu.edu/~tristanb/st...
Two proposals were offered to me. The first was that we post our Euler result, and that OpenAI post its Navier-Stokes result the next day. The second was that, after posting Euler, I alone write a paper presenting the Navier-Stokes result, acknowledging that an internal OpenAI model had resolved it. Sebastien twice asserted that he wanted Levent removed from authorship, and said it would all be simple if only it were not the case that, and it was so annoying that, Levent works at Anthropic. It was also said that if OpenAI posted after us, they would say that we deserved the Clay Prize, and that we were the "closest
humans to the problem". I declined both offers. I said that if OpenAI released its result in the way proposed I would go public with what happened. The reply was, "Why would you ruin your career?" I replied that I am an academic, and asked why he thought going public would ruin my career. The reply was, "If you don't want me to be nice, then I don't
have to be nice." Some time later Levent received a text proposing that he and Sebastien speak one on one, saying, "I don't know if Tristan is being fully rational right now." Levent declined and said conversations should be with me. Sebastien sent
a follow-up email that night requesting to speak with me on Monday, September

Yes. For me, the implication affects this socially construted veil of ignorance everyone participates in: we'll dump all of this privileged, proprietary, personal data into an LLM and we'll check this box that says 'don't train on this' and everything is okay.

think we’ll look back at this period of blind faith in “not training our models” with extreme embarrassment.

knowing what people are looking into, what proprietary information and data they dump into an LLM…it’s all so valuable and would take a tremendous level of discipline these companies have never shown.

John @jeronimofic.us · 08/09/2026
it’s seemed obvious that regardless of statements like “we don’t use your data to train our models,” the temptation to do exactly that is too valuable for these companies. Even if the data isn’t being fed into training…

not a mathematician, so a lot of this reads like a foreign language, but the biggest implication (which he is not making) is that OpenAI was cribbing their work in Codex. That has massive implications.
