The asymmetry of the value placed on human life is so striking. Israel has a goal to recover 40-year-old remains; to do so, it invades a sovereign country, and the lives of 26 Lebanese are an afterthought. Their names not even worth printing in the New York Times.

Not to worry I've been repeatedly assured that the former volunteer army guard for an IDF torture prison in the First Intifada is actually very liberal and also that the magazine he runs is very liberal

I'd go further tbh and claim that the depravity of the former eventually leads to the latter.

The most scathing critics of Silicon Valley circa 2014 barely scratched the surface of the treachery these companies have shown.

Providing your products to criminal regimes planning to use them to violate human rights on a massive scale is a choice!

Nous avons 4 instituts nationaux pour jeunes sourds en France et je peux vous dire qu’ils sont bien en train d’être démantelés depuis des années si jamais quelqu’un s’en soucie.

Mais ça se PRÉSENTE comme un expert humain capable et volontaire à répondre aux questions, ce qui est traître.

C'est paradoxal mais peut-être aussi un exemple du phénomène: on dit ça sur Wikipédia car on SAIT ce que "quiconque peut éditer" veut dire. Et Wikipédia pallie avec des mesures qui elles aussi sont assez intuitives. Mais "un LLM" personne ne sait ce que ça veut dire, ce qu'il faut pallier ou comment

Les humains sont faillibles mais ce n'est pas le cas que "ils faut toujours vérifier tout ce qu'ils disent". Certaines sources et personnes sont plus fiables que d'autres pour certaines choses. Mais nos outils pour évaluer ça ne marchent pas pareil avec les LLMs.

Les LLM ne sont pas juste un nouveau système dont on nous ne comprenons pas intuitivement les comportements et les limites, ils vont contre nos intuitions en parlant comme une personne compétente sans fonctionner du tout comme un humain compétent le ferait

Les autres outils interagissent bien avec nos outils mentaux d'épistémologie - soit des textes écrits par des humains quand toute notre évolution et vie personnelle nous apprend à évaluer ce que dit un humain, soit des moteurs de recherche relativement transparents dans les résultats qu'ils donnent

Sánchez: “You may have heard that Spain is alone. They’re the same people who said that when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed.

“We are not alone — we are the first. Those who will end up alone are the ones defending the indefensible.”

Price of Crude Oil WTI (USD/Bbl) over a five-year period, spanning from 2021 to early 2026. The chart shows a significant price peak in 2022 reaching over $120, followed by a general downward trend with various fluctuations, eventually hitting a low near $55 in late 2025 before a sharp vertical spike to the current price of 90.900. This recent surge represents an increase of +23.880 (+35.63%), highlighted in green text above the blue line graph.

The real insanity isn’t how much oil prices have spiked, it’s that we’re still burning oil for energy.

Brian McGinnis' wife has
NOT been allowed to see him in the hospital.
He is currently awaiting surgery for severe injuries.
Legal counsel has also been denied access.
A Marine veteran.
A firefighter.
A father of four.
And his family still cannot see him.

so apparently Brian McGinnis has been denied access to both his family and legal representation since a sitting senator broke his arm

If you want to see colonialism in the 21st century, look at West Papua: soldiers secure the land, companies extract the wealth, and the indigenous population is pushed aside.

I don't think (or remember) that Japan had an outright invasion like the British Isles but OTOH the fact the writing system was imported from Chinese and so strongly linked to that language has to have had its own effect.

I don't think there's any "bolt on", like Richard J says I always understood Japanese to have a history similar to English where the island nation was so strongly culturally influenced by the nearby continent that the resulting language is a hybrid of both. The bifurcated readings result from that

Thinking about this latter group all week - the thousands of African young people sold dreams of employment in the Gulf, often by their own government. Already some of the most precarious existences in the legal world now stuck in a war they don’t understand, in languages they don’t speak.

My photo shows a Roman fresco of a brown rabbit with long ears, curled on the ground, with a rounded, soft-looking body. Its head is lowered as if nibbling at three figs placed in front of it. The figs are small and round with short stems, painted in dark reddish and bluish tones. From Pompeii. Now on display at the National Archaeological Museum in Naples.

Here’s a charming Roman fresco of a little rabbit eating figs 🐰❤️

From Pompeii, 45-79 AD.

« De Gaulle n'est pas le père irréprochable de la résistance magnifié par des Français auxquels il procure le frisson d'un combat pour la liberté par procuration. Il refuse aujourd'hui d'arrêter une guerre qu'il a perdu et d'accepter la Paix du Général Pétain » (traduisons-le en juin 1940)

A lesser known flaw - prompt sensitivity

We talk much about the "hallucinations" of AI, which is unfortunate term that humanizes them (@anilseth.bsky.social's point, a better one would be confabulation.

What we talk less about is - prompt sensitivity.

Law of war discourse reminds me of a perceptive analyst on Kenyan political corruption: given how permissive the formal rules already are, their persistent violation is real evidence of elite depravity.

The two quotes from the front matter of C.S. Lewis's "The Screwtape Letters" altered to read:
"The best way to drive out the devil, if he will not yield to texts of Scripture, is to jeer and own him, for he cannot bear scorn." -Luther.
"The devill... the prowde spirite... cannot endure to be corncobbed." -Thomas More.
