It is impossible to make an LLM “detect” much of anything, let alone the output of another LLM. And that’s before getting into how statistical inference is utterly valueless for this purpose in the first place And literally the only thing an LLM does is statistical inference

Gavin Newsom, who allowed this merger to go forward, was credibly alleged of interfering in the state’s lawsuit against Activision / Kotick for sexual discrimination—alleged interference for which his former Chief of Staff is now facing criminal charges over. Just putting that on the table.

Picture of hands changing a smoke alarm battery. The text reads: In brightest day. In blackest night. I shall sound with all my might. When there's a fire or when my battery is dead if you forgot to change it. Which you did. Good morning, it's 3AM. Smoke alarms chirp all night! Check the expiration dates on your smoke alarms. Test the batteries. Oath optional.

Sometimes my wife and I like to send each other text messages as though they’re democratic fundraising messages, and I believe she has produced the jewel of the form.
, it's
and I
have some personal news to share with you.
Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel deeply that we should have salad tonight
This year has been challenging in many ways, and I have immense gratitude for the kindness and support of family, community, and people like you who have continued to stand by me through everything. It means the world, and I wanted you to be among the first to know that squash is in the oven and kale is in the fridge.As many of you are aware, ve been navigating one of the most challenging periods of my day while waiting for dinner.
Facing baseless federal hunger brought on by not eating since lunch, fighting for the working kids of this country, and now caring for a mean toddler and helping him grow up in a world that isn't always easy. But it has also reminded me exactly why I do this work and who I do it for.
I will never stop working to eat dinner. I will never stop fighting for what is right, even when there is also some feta in the fridge. And I will never stop being so very thankful that you are by my side in this important work and that there is tahini in the pantry for dressing
With love and gratitude,
stop to end

Sorry the very idea that anything Donald Trump says requires a close reading to interpret his real meaning instead of observing how his poorly considered remarks were well received by his supporters for the initial meaning we all obviously saw and heard is such a massive waste of energy.

I think girls have followed me long enough that you all know my position on this but it bears repeating: when I point out ICE abuses against US citizens or immigrants who are following the legal process it's not to say, by omission or otherwise, that it's ok in any way to abuse undocumented folks--

I LOVE how @propublica.org dealt with official comment here, editorially and stylistically.
The Trump administration says none of this is happening. 

"DHS is NOT arresting U.S. citizens by mistake." "There are no 'indiscriminate' stops." Allegations of "racial profiling are disgusting, reckless and categorically FALSE." "The pattern is NOT of law enforcement using force." "ICE does not zip tie or restrain children." 

But that is precisely what is happening, and at a far larger scale than previously reported.

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.
