“I am so angry that I am going to help Trump minimize the political consequences of his war!”
slopulism will kill the Democratic Party. no tax on tips, Cory booker’s plan to get rid of taxes on half the country. it’s all slopulist nonsense
The first blog post from Percepta is out: how do we get ML-based decision-making into the deep problems that have plagued critical industries for decades?

As it turns out, lots of people like when you cosplay a Manly Man of the "working class" (petty bourgeoisie), especially if you've got a tottenkopf. America hasn't fucking learned shit after a decade.
“Multifamily housing is for young renters and the poor while single family homes are for established adults with children” is a really pernicious folk theory about how housing markets should work that I think is foundational to so much bad housing policy at all levels of government.

Say it louder for the people in the back!
Prefer the science superpower thx
Supreme Court changes seem necessary to allow Congress-agency governance Here we have argued that Congress should act to preserve what has worked so well at NIH: decision making by civil servants and the scientific community largely independent of presidential control. But any action by Congress to restore Congress-agency governance is likely to find itself challenged by the Supreme Court. 13 Direct and indirect effects of the Roberts Court on NIH While the Supreme Court has not made decisions about NIH in 2025 based on explicit unitary executive reasoning, it has made several decisions that do affect NIH that draw on unitary executive ideas of a strong presidency that has great and new power over civil servants at the agency. One example is the Court decision on the unprecedented use of grant terminations, justified by the Trump administration as shifts in agency priorities. While a Reagan-appointed district court jud

There is no way to restore functional science agencies without Court reform
We get to choose:
The Roberts Court and its approach to executive power, or the American science superpower.
We can't have both.
I tracked every keyword in 22 years of Cosyne abstracts to map how computational neuroscience evolved — from Bayesian brains to neural manifolds to LLMs — and where it's heading next.
Really gotta reiterate how absolute my hostility is to anyone who even remotely looks like they're advocating for a return to a golden age of supposedly leisurely subsistence as an antidote to the real but lesser problems of capitalism and industry.
We need to kill the mythology of the proud peasant dead.
Our peasant ancestors were canny, scrappy survivors. That doesn't necessarily select for pride or heroic defiance.
(especially since life as a peasant historically isn't proud and self reliant anyways, it's desperately sucking up to the local big man who runs the industrial capital)
are you interested in other places for their own sake, not just as an extension of America? congratulations, you are already ahead of the majority of DC think tanks.
PPL = "perplexity"?
unironically speaking, it's that quite a few of them no longer understand how their own industries work
It is astonishing how pervasive this sentiment has been over the last 10 years. I heard a college professor say during Trump 1 that for as evil/racist/misogynistic as Trump was (none of which the professor disputed, he ostensibly hated the man), he was also "one of the least pro war presidents ever"
this, but also the NYT operates to fixed internal narratives in its political coverage, and the one they had evidently decided on was "Andrew Cuomo has done his time on the naughty step and now gets to come back because MeToo/woke went too far"
He allegedly said "he needed help transferring data from a thumb drive “to his personal computer so that he could ‘sanitize’ the data before using it at [the company.] ... [and] that he expected to receive a presidential pardon ... ." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Senator, all due respect to Asian Carp haters, for whom I'm sure this is a big deal, I think the fact that he threatened to annex Canada again merits a mention.
Yeah, like, that's not nightmarish speculation, just everyday reality. The world cares only because it has startlingly much symbolic investment in what happens to exactly one group of people in that specific Conflict, and beyond that barely gives a fuck.
Now come on. That's not "really dark moments". That's just the simple facts.
I love how Squirtle had Kamina shades before Kamina did.
Me: not me I am built different.

This is just astonishingly great reporting.
All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.
And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.

Actually, fuggit, speaking of alternate universes, if you get the Golden Ending you actually avoid ever going off-planet with the Emperor and never become a Daemon Primarch.
