actually wait what do you even do at a bar where masks are required, considering that the primary activities at a bar are putting things in your mouth and speaking at close quarters

yeah man i do think that you are a hysterical bully when you think that going from 'masks seven nights a week' to 'masks six nights a week' is unreasonable

okay. i'm going to do some posts leftists like: iranian crude is actually fantastic. they produce everything within the medium-light to medium-heavy band which is useful for producing everything from gasoline to bunker fuel. in addition the sulfur fraction is kind of low.

paying off the debt under clinton would have absolutely annihilated the economy, if for no other reason than that we were preparing to do our monetary policy directly via mortgate-backed securities

also, the public salience of trans girls playing sports is incredibly low. the public salience of say, data centers, is incredibly high. strange that a “popularist” cannot see this. almost as if “popularism” is a way to smuggle ones preferences in to politics as somehow objective.

It's very important that we defend the right of race scientists to hold academic sinecures, or else we open the door to attacks on the freedom of academic disciplines like gender studies and African-American history, which have already been banned.

one of the many, many things to hate about this admin is the way in which all of these unqualified idiot cabinet heads have no real responsibilities related to their official portfolios and just make the rounds on cable news as uninformed gadfly mouthpieces

It’s so bizarre when you encounter this in the wild with Normies too, like, they’ll genuinely truly believe that Trump could not have materially made their lives worse, and so they don’t understand, like genuinely are incapable of understanding, what is currently happening

My genuinely non controversial take is that if you're signing an open letter of support for Cofnas you're either a racist or want to be admired in racist spaces.

For over a year, Canada has worked intensively and in good faith with the United States to negotiate a new comprehensive trade deal. We have been pragmatic, patient, and persistent. Our goal has always been to get the best deal for Canadians, never a deal at any price or on any time frame.

i am a liberal. i am willing to live with capitalism. i do not care one way or another. but if socialists care are the only ones willing to say out loud that they will do what is necessary, if elected, to instantiate my values, then i suppose i am a socialist. if you do my thing i will do yours.

i do not mean that we should be shooting people. that should be avoided at all cost. but the thing is that my commitment to that position is such that i would endorse shooting people over it if it came to that and it were strategicaly sound to do it. it is not often strategically sound at all.

i can halfway understand it. we are going to have to do incredibly radical constitutional hardball to make it so jim crow isn't constitutionally mandatory, but i have previously endorsed shooting people (c.f., the civil war) to stop a racialized caste system and i haven't changed my mind about that.

there have been less than two dozen national general strikes of more than a week, globally, most have been in relatively small countries, and only only two (Russia, 1905; Iran, 1978-9) were in countries a tenth the size of the US.

the short answer is that a noised trajectory can find optima unavailable to a fixed trajectory, this being why the sampler in a LLM (even for translation) is not argmax. (frequently, where "determinism" is needed in a LLM, it's just sampling philox or other XOR noise from the trajectory itself.)

revarson.bsky.social @revarson.bsky.social · 22/08/2026
translation is not a reversible mapping, -- trivially, per-sample injectivity is impossible unless d_vocab_a = d_vocab_b, and globally where text length > 1 -- and there are more or less injective diffusion models (rectified flow models) and they suck precisely because they are injective.

a diffusion model, under the hood, is effectively a translation model between pictures and words

the fact that john ossoff can kick off a two-day media cycle by saying that the president is uninterested in doing his job and is sleeping through meetings and traveling around with a young blonde, suggests that not enough of these guys are speaking plainly and effectively about these assholes

oh sorry i missed that one. rosa luxemburg got what was coming to her. the only problem is that the SPD didn't do it itself. the zentrum party was not centrist.

It’s nice that a number of Republican electeds are standing up for America’s long-term alliances. But there’s only one way they can possibly save U.S. power and security: impeach and convict Trump, Vance, and the entire cabinet. If they do it soon they’ll even still hold the presidency.

the early communists at least were trying to build utopia, and were willing to build the gulag if it was necessary to get there. these days sometimes it seems like internet communists are trying to build the gulag, and are willing to refer to utopia sometimes if it lets them get there.
