This is the message. Not the endless attempt to particularize who the targets are, those make people feel immune and they're untrue.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 24-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION people in Denmark found NO LINK between aluminum in childhood vaccines and autism, asthma, OR chronic disorders.

Aluminum is an ADJUVANT.

It ENHANCES your immune response to a vaccine.

That’s it.

The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Yeesh, Bloomberg compares Trump’s administration to BlackBerry, Nokia and Eastman Kodak.

“.. In each case, leaders insulated themselves from learning. .. Dissent was seen as disloyalty .. while advisors who played to leaders’ illusions were promoted.” 👀

Names aren't classified, publishing a government higher-up's name is not "doxxing," and journalists are entitled to publish news, even if it is classified, as long as they don't break the law to get it.

It's not the press's job to keep the government's secrets.

I’m joining Rep. @robinkelly.house.gov to introduce articles of impeachment against Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and will use every lever available to end the terror ICE has unleashed on our communities.

Stay loud.

US government killing Americans in broad daylight, kidnapping foreign leaders, threatening allied territories and dictating corporate capital returns.

But “invest in America.” 🤡

it is the policy of this government to treat democratic-led states as conquered territories and the people therein as something like hostiles or even enemy combatants

New: DHS is lying to you.

At least four videos show what really happened when ICE shot a woman in Minneapolis. Shots clearly fired while vehicle already turning away from the officer. But DHS lied. Trump lied. Noem lied. Even judges have catalogued DHS' serial lying

DHS Is Lying To You About ICE Shooting a Woman
At least four videos show what really happened when ICE shot a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday. DHS has established itself as an agency that cannot be trusted to live in or present reality.

Yeah, people are fixating on a Cabinet Secretary being given a sovereign country to run because the president waged war without congressional approval and kidnapped the old leader. Weird that they’d get hung up on that.
WELKER: Mr. Secretary, are you running Venezuela right now?

MARCO RUBIO: Yeah. People are fixating on that. Here's the bottom line -- we expect to see changes in Venezuela

This would not have passed if those chickenshit Dems Davis, Cellar, and Gonzalez had not voted for it. They voted to put the parents of trans youth in prison for ten years.

Primary them all.
Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms.

3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers.

4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against.

It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power.

Story to come.

i've been spending a bunch of time deep in the weeds on constrained decoding, speculative decoding, and novel model architectures, and i have thoughts. and they are messy.

i have a track record of having great early technical insights. this is not a brag, though – being too early is usually functionally equivalent to being wrong.

build out the steel thread.
make sure it's sound and effective.
optimize, while maintaining those qualities.
add additional language support.
optimize the damn thing again.
make the interfaces nicer.

As part of my work on Ananke, I'm working on a new constrained decoding engine for SGLang, supporting constraint satisfaction with coordinated constraints, typed holes, and progressive refinement.

Denver scaled back a street safety project after pushback from the family of Colorado's wealthiest man.

While the city told the public that construction was the hold up, @spencersoicher.bsky.social obtained internal city emails showing the issue was "high level" community concerns.
