I like that in becoming a nazi, you get glowing coverage as a brave iconoclast, and then when you stop being a nazi, you’re get glowing coverage as a brave dissident. Money coming and going. Only way you lose is having normal opinions like “racism bad” bsky.app/profile/trac...

This makes me hopeful. This number is aspirational but nowhere near out of reach: a working professional could realistically cash out their 401k and buy off a public official. Owning a senator is more attainable for most Americans than home ownership.

You are not practicing hard-headed pragmatism. Pragmatism produces a result. You are volunteering someone else’s civil rights as a coupon for votes you cannot identify, from people who still will not vote for you, and calling the receipt a strategy.

Gosh, if only there were some kind of professional organization for White House journalists that existed to advocate for the First Amendment and defend the freedom of the press. They could organize together as a united front against Trump's censorship. That would be something.

When I say "bullshitting is inherent to LLMs," I don't mean it colloquially, I mean it empirically. Here's the bleeding edge of the frontier (Opus, Sol, Fable, Astra), and the lowest bullshit rate (answering wrongly instead of admitting ignorance) is 45%. artificialanalysis.ai/evaluations/...

AA-Omniscience Hallucination Rate vs. AA-Omniscience Index
AA-Omniscience Hallucination Rate (lower is better) measures how often the model answers incorrectly when it should have refused or admitted to not knowing the answer. It is defined as the proportion of incorrect answers out of all non-correct responses, i.e. incorrect / (incorrect + partial answers + not attempted) · AA-Omniscience Index

AA-Omniscience
Description: AA-Omniscience is a knowledge and hallucination benchmark that measures factual reliability, rewards precise knowledge, and penalizes incorrect guesses or hallucinations. It provides a detailed assessment of a model’s ability to distinguish known from unknowns across diverse knowledge domains.
Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.13029
Dataset: https://huggingface.co/datasets/ArtificialAnalysis/AA-Omniscience-Public
Implementation:
The benchmark consists of 6,000 questions covering 42 topics, including Business, Humanities and Social Sciences, Health, Law, Software Engineering, and Science, Engineering and Mathematics.
Models are scored using the AA-Omniscience Index, which assigns points for correct answers, subtracts points for hallucinated responses, and keeps abstentions neutral, rewarding abstentions over incorrect guesses
Each answer is graded as either CORRECT, INCORRECT, PARTIAL_ANSWER, or NOT_ATTEMPTED based on the model's response and the ground truth answer. GPT-5.6 Luna (medium) is used as the grading model
Intelligence Index Integration: AA-Omniscience contributes two components to the Intelligence Index: (1) Accuracy - the proportion of correct answers, weighted at 10% of the overall Index, and (2) Non-Hallucination Rate - calculated as 1 minus the hallucination rate, weighted at 5% of the overall Index (AA-Omniscience's 15% share).

I've had to unfriend a few fans lately, all for the same reason. They made ridiculing, unkind, and in some cases outright cruel comments about pictures I posted of young women cosplaying Jessica.
More than a person, Jessica is a state of mind. To play Jessica, you need self -confidence, a sense of humor, and a Jessican -attitude-. There is no such thing as a Jessica cosplayer being too short, too flat chested, too heavy, too thin, too unattractive, too black, too Asian, or even too male!!! All Jessica, any Jessica, every Jessica is good Jessica.
I'm not giving any warnings or second chances. A single disparaging comment on a Jessica cosplayer, and I'm throwing you out of the rainbow colored Toontown Tent.
