Reading about Socrates, apparently he was horrific to look at and was still having kids in his 60s. Unbelievable game. Imagine you're at the bar and a man who looks like a beluga whale hits you with "The only thing I know is I know nothing" and you're just powerless to resist

It's good that we invented things like "government" and "the economy" but we can't meaningfully participate in them if the people in charge are constantly rubbing in our faces that these things are fake, and in fact you are a naive doofus if you think otherwise. That's a society on life support

Bluesky pals! I have a sci-fi graphic novel called DRIVE, & it's my favorite thing I've ever done! If you need a long, escapist read at the moment the entire thing is free to read, here: drivecomic.com (THIS PAGE: Cayetano)
PANEL 1: The Grand Council audience looks up at the stage. We see Nando in the second or third row.
SPEAKER (off panel, in the background): …And with that, we will adjourn for one hour, in order to…
TRES PRIMO (off panel): ‘Nando! Hey, ‘Nando!

PANEL 2: NANDO turns around to see the SQUAT PRIMO and TALL PRIMO.
NANDO: Oh! Hi! Thank goodness you’re here.
TALL PRIMO: We have a lot to discuss. Bur first…what of the Nyx?
SQUAT PRIMO: Any word?

PANEL 3: NANDO looks down at SQUAT PRIMO.
NANDO: They’re apparently horrified with what happened. Said “THESE NYX WILL HAVE SUBMITTED TO THE NEW EMPEROR’S JUSTICE.” Then surrendered to the Armada.
SQUAT PRIMO: To the Armada??? Who took them into custody?

PANEL 4: NANDO continues to talk to SQUAT PRIMO, as an older bearded gentleman in military regalia appears behind him.
NANDO: An Admiral I’ve never met. Admiral—
SQUAT PRIMO: CAYETANO.

PANEL 5: NANDO continues exuberantly as SQUAT PRIMO points to the man behind him.
NANDO: Yes! “Cayetano Cruz.” 
SQUAT PRIMO: Um…allow me to introduce you, ‘Nando.

PANEL 6: CAYETANO CRUZ holds his arm out to shake NANDO’s hand. His uniform has stripes on the arm, ropes hanging from his epaulettes, and a sash. He is a fancy military man. Nando meets his handshake.
CAYETANO: Fernando. I served under your father for six years. He was the best of men. I AM AT YOUR SERVICE.

PANEL 7: NANDO responds then CAYETANO pulls the handshake firmly toward him. The shadows intensify.
NANDO: Oh1 But aren’t we both up for…?
CAYETANO: Make no mistake: I AM ALSO AT YOUR THROAT.

It's never fun getting bitten by a mosquito and I get that but I was bitten by a mosquito while I was indoors today and I feel like that specific mosquito violated some kind of unspoken mosquito ethical code.

another researcher accuses OpenAI of training on conversations and then claiming a breakthrough
Valerio Capraro @ValerioCapraro
X.com
BREAKING: OpenAl might have stolen another major proot.
In a detailed Mastodon post, which I report in full in the comments, Andreas Thom presents several pieces of evidence suggesting that OpenAl may have trained Astra on conversations in which he and Gábor Kun were working on Gromov's soficity conjecture, one of the ten problems OpenAl later announced Astra had solved.
I know Andreas. We met several times early in our careers. He is an exceptional mathematician, a leading expert on sofic and hyperlinear groups, and one of the most respected scholars in the field. He has spent two decades working on this problem.
If his account is correct, this is not a minor dispute over attribution. It would mean that unpublished human work was absorbed into a model and then presented to the world as a breakthrough by the model itself.And if the allegations raised by Levent Alpöge, Tristan Buckmaster, and now Andreas Thom are all substantiated, we are no longer looking at isolated incidents.
We may be looking at one of the greatest intellectual scandals in the history of science.
Al is not discovering new mathematics.
Al is stealing human discovery.

if you're in the us open, it seems like there'd be nothing stopping you from just reaching out there and grabbing the serve instead of returning it and running away. like i get it, it would probably destroy your career, but still. free tennis ball
