Shuler: Thirteen billionaires in one picture—four of whom now run agencies of our federal government. If you’ve ever met someone who says the word “oligarchy” is too confusing or too complicated, well, you can explain it with that one photo.

I wrote an op-ed on the world-class STEM research ecosystem in the United States, and how this ecosystem is now under attack on multiple fronts by the current administration: newsletter.ofthebrave.org/p/im-an-awar...
I’m an award-winning mathematician. Trump just cut my funding.
The “Mozart of Math” tried to stay out of politics. Then it came for his research.

OK, new rule, if your main RL baselines only use multi-layer MLPs a la original SAC or TD3, you are rejected. We have had at least 3 years of progress in architecture design for RL, comparing to an MLP based implementation is like trying to publish a vision paper with the Google Net arch.

He affirmed what we already knew: the ones breaking windows and starting chaos weren’t the ones demanding justice, they were opportunists hijacking the moment.

In other words, he promised repeatedly during the campaign he had a secret plan to end the war in 24 hours and he was just bullshitting everyone because he doesn’t have the first clue what to do, he gave away all negotiating leverage months ago, and his special envoy is a dope.

This has been going around for years but it's FALSE! Years ago Newsarama didn't do their research and presented some of my just-for-fun Livejournal sketches as official concept art. There WAS almost a Dark Horse TMNT but it fell thru so fast that I never had a chance to do any art for it.
Reapply cool designs from @mooncalfe1.bsky.social for a TMNT comic from Darkhorse that never launched.

People tend to dismiss VP Pence’s actions on J6: he was just doing his job, why should he get any credit for simply sticking to the letter of the law?
But if it was so easy to do, why was he one of the very few in his party to do it?

If our government is the one removing them but does not benefit from their later labor and is not paid for them, then does trafficking still apply?
I’m not trying to be pedantic here, but we do have a term for kicking out citizens. It’s “wrongful expulsion.”

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.
If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Really neat paper on grokking:
