the post proves its point; people are reacting to this as if itβs some outrageous claim instead of just a literally accurate description of how large deep learning models work, one repeated by every researcher and scientist, including both the 2024 chemistry and physics nobel winners

Exactly - the real significance of Ukraineβs successful advance might be in showing that the deadlock of drones and trenches can be broken. I really wish I had time to look at this more closely, and learn lessons.

In 1991, it took a multi-national mine clearing task force of 40+ ships (plus aircraft) four months to clear Iraqi mines *after the war ended* and they knew where the mines were because they had the charts. Today, unmanned systems help, but the process is still extremely slow and dangerous. 1/

One step closer to Terminator warfare:
Russia has been using fiberoptic drones to great effect. Immune to jamming.
They'd land them on logistic routes to ambush Ukrainian forces.
Now Ukraine is flying drones armed with lasers that disable the camera CMOS.

Scoop: White House tells House Republicans to stop talking about mass deportations
Blair delivered the message during a policy listening session with House Republicans at their annual retreat in Doral, Florida.
"The advice signals a recalibration by the White House β and reflects growing concern among some Republicans that Democrats are successfully framing Trump's immigration policy as overly sweeping and indiscriminate."
A little late to distance themselves from President Miller. Damage is done.

Thanks to Trump's attacks on federal research funding, the National Cancer Institute hasn't made a single grant this fiscal year.
Just last month, Trump issued an EO to increase production of glyphosate, a chemical linked to cancer.

I'm astounded at how the same people who now easily believe Trump has gone to war on a whim to prove US might have for yrs rejected every piece of evidence that Putin invaded Ukraine to conquer it and prove Ru might. "Ukraine is ours!" Pu pounds his chest; "Pu is cornered and fearful", they insist.

While I'm on this rant about Dem messaging, it seems that Bluesky has forgotten that Democrats are overperforming with messages about affordability. Understand the electorate as a whole folks.
That IS connected to this unauthorized war.
