WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 13hYeah I don’t see how you get an 85% rural sample in Maine with CD-1 being slightly more than half the sample. 2121
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 13hThe Cornell thing is awful but doesn’t really feel new if you were on the Internet during peak MeToo. I guess that means a lot of younger Zoomers are just cycling through 2017 again? A darkly ironic turn after everyone declared woke dead a couple months ago. 0170
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 14hThis site is so fixated on "the South exporting the Confederacy" or whatever people forget "the North" has been exporting culture for so long and so well that nobody even recognizes it. For example Rutgers and Princeton played the first college football game. 5454
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 14hI was thinking about the frontier lab business model and how the pharma patent monopoly makes sense and the lack of it for frontier labs makes their bankruptcy pretty much inevitable if/when the money runs out. Big reason why people prefer government R&D so much. 041
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 15hHe doesn't need Trump's permission to go to the front line. He can just go. 1112

WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 17hRepublicans continue to be in trouble here but for context most of those Trump +30 localities are NOT in competitive districts. Here are the ones that are: Richmond County (CD-1): 4,168 votes New Kent County (CD-1): 16,807 Charlotte County (CD-5): 6,020 Amherst County (CD-5): 17,358 162
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 17hAs @gilmored85.bsky.social said the Minnesota Senate race has only had one nonpartisan poll the entire cycle with like 12% undecided (pretty useless). The rest have been R-leading pollsters finding a narrow lead for Flanagan. There's been no rush to investment in the state. It's probably nothing. 351
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 18hYeah man we're gonna wanna see that transcript. 1142
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 18hI'll admit my joke detector is broken on this one maybe? X-Men is probably the horniest Marvel line but it's still like a 4/10 on the horniness index for media, Star Trek is like a 2/10. 290
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 18hAs someone who works from home now, I'm broadly curious how much "works from home" factors into this now. My out-of-the-house socialization time in the narrow window of "post-COVID but pre-parenting" in 2022 and 2023 was basically what it was pre-pandemic. 1100
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 18hIt's pretty obvious that LLMs are going to be required by nearly every big company for cybersecurity in a decade or two. This isn't going to mean that hacking is trivially easy nor that it will become more frequent, but at a certain point agent swarms will only be deterred by other agents. 050
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 18hUnfortunately the demographic most deluded per capita by LLMs is upper and middle management that believes the people below them are approaching some business problem wrong and the LLM basically tells them they are Warren Buffett, go full steam ahead. 080
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 18hThe thing is if you have the time and patience to read an LLM output longer than a couple sentences you have a bigger attention span than most people. "It works with language" is a big barrier to the average media consumer. The risk of LLMs has not turned out to be "coded with false info." 1203
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 18hPPP so take it with a grain salt of but even if you assume 3-4% Dem bias you are looking at narrow Talarico/Hinojosa victories statewide. 1111
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 19hWait leftie posters seem uniquely interested in antisemitism? The same posters who celebrated 10/7? The same posters who view the USSR as a good thing? The same posters who reflexively hate anything the US does overseas and make 9/11 jokes? Those posters?? 1336
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 20hNo point in engaging with a certain guy who believes in doxxing and is pretty obviously a predator and pedophile sympathizer. You can't "win" because he does not want to be persuaded by you. He wants you to give him marketing via engagement. 0111
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 20hD+9.4 is somehow undershooting the past two weeks but still way better than summer, which is to say I find it pretty plausible. 2161
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 20hCan't even get Paxton above 50% in a hack poll 180
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 21hOn the one hand, this person was incredibly naive, to put it lightly. On the other hand, you can see why all the narratives in 2024 about why hispanic voters would really love Trump's mass deportations were not gonna survive contact with reality. 1533148
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 22hSurprised Florida is so high compared to its neighboring states. 2171
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 22hLike most of the ideas knocking around the AI space I can immediately see the utility, but I also see that people love Choosin Texas, and Choosin Alabama is just gonna be a poor imitation of the original. 061

WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I guess the joke is a year out of date but SNL needs to do a version of the Jack Smith hearing where they’re “like you were at Knicks game? It can’t be because you expected them to win.” 061
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Without being too revealing in college I had a roommate who decided to become an abusive alcoholic halfway through junior year and took a swing at his then girlfriend. We basically told him that we would kick him out if it ever happened again. It didn’t happen again. 240

WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Reading a piece like this I understand why people find LLMs so useful for writing emails and memos. It's because nobody actually forces them to do it before they get into the workplace and then they never build the skill. 0122
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Virginia early vote check-in. This morning we hit 220,969 votes, 4.9% of 2024's total votes. Democrats are looking at their best early vote performance since 2020. Fluvanna and James City are tied at 11.5% for the highest turnout. Fluvanna is in CD-5 (R+12.2) and James City is in CD-1 (R+3.9). 12912
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Line of questioning like this and you see why Trump's getting low conviction rates. 0112

WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 28/09/2026V for Vendetta is a wild movie because it was widely over-exaggerating the problems of the War on Terror but much closer to the mark on post-Brexit UK. 26512
Reposted by WildPartyInviteDeclinerNicole Bedera @nbedera.bsky.social · 28/09/2026The main reason you haven’t heard about campus sexual violence in a few years is because Trump and SCOTUS have made it much, much harder for survivors to come forward. You might vaguely remember that Title IX was a big battleground in his first term. And that we lost. 31860635
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Sorry but fraternities have always been up to this shit. When I worked for my college newspaper we could have printed an unverifiable allegation a week about what certain frats and brothers got up too (but that would be defamation). 491
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Looking back, a defining trait of the war was Yahya Sinwar's disregard for human life (including his own) and disinterest in negotiations. He knew or should have known he was a lot more likely to be killed than Netanyahu, but just didn't care. 052
WildPartyInviteDecliner @ratelimitexceeder.bsky.social · 28/09/2026My take from this story is that Joe Biden was the only guy will to de-escalate and pretty much everyone else chose to kill people over any other available option and Biden's impulses lost. 511125
