imagine defending your role in getting a pedophile elected like this. in public.

listen asking if Ms Rachel was Hamas or if Mamdani's aunt actually exists is JOURNALISM.

Sitting president in active pedophilia gang having thanksgiving dinner at the White House?? that's not news. C'mon.

As a former member of NYT’s finance team & the co-author of this story exposing the relationship between Epstein & Bill Gates as well as one on Epstein & JPMorgan, I am really frustrated to see people claiming that NYT sat on publishable info about Trump and Epstein 🧵 www.nytimes.com/2019/10/12/b...

Läser på om behovet av att stänga skolor runt om i landets kommuner. Förvaltningar säger åt kommunpolitiker att de måste, men kommunpolitiker vet att det snart är val och att man blir hårt straffad om man stänger skolor. Så det händer inget och kostnaden per elev bara ökar *alldeles för lång tråd*

I do, of course, have a paragraph from "Why We Fear AI" for this
An LLM is an abstraction over the status quo (or rather, the text of the status quo) that has, at its core, no other aim than producing more text that is just like the text already in existence. One result is that the dominant ideas, the dominant textual patterns of our time, are recast as “intelligence” per se. We might call the complex mass of concepts and ideas, the channels into which ideas flow often and easily, or the boundaries of what is reasonable to debate in so-called “polite society”—the dominant ideology of an age. An age’s dominant ideology tends to presuppose that the power of that age is natural; the hallmark of ideology, in this sense, is that it is easy to recognize only when it’s past its time. We may no longer think that an almighty god appointed a king to rule us, that women are naturally unfit to vote, or that sex outside of a heterosexual marriage is immoral. But at various times, to think otherwise (to think of replacing the monarchy with a republic, to affirm that women are people, or being in favor of sexual or gay liberation) was the far more difficult, even dangerous thought—if not to have, then at the very least to put in writing. Ideology, of course, is never complete, other thoughts are always possible. But ideology is easy to think, it’s what our thoughts are already marinated in. And hence, ideology will be dominant in the textual patterns of an age. Seen in this light, what is called “intelligence” in a language model, is really that—ideology as a thing that can pretend to be a person.

Of course, Eric Schmidt would think that the only two possible futures are rule by AI or rule through AI.

Trying to incorporate the critiques of the former to push for the latter, as if "deliberation with AI" wasn't precisely the "reproducing the ideology of the status quo"

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

it was always the most “open secret” shit imaginable and no one did a fucking thing about it. people don’t give a fuck about sexual abuse unless it convenient rhetoric to weaponize against communities at high risk for sexual abuse—trans women in particular

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Tänkt om det fanns någon som skulle kunna ha förutspått att utbetalningsmyndigheten skulle kosta mer än den drog in.
flamman.se Flamman @flamman.se · 17h
Utbetalningsmyndigheten har hittills lyckats kräva tillbaka 70 miljoner kronor i ”felaktiga utbetalningar” från välfärden.

Samtidigt har 264 miljoner kronor gått till att utveckla ett nytt system – som regeringen nu skrotar innan det tagits i bruk.

Nä men ojsan
Tweet från mig från juni 2023: Det finns cirka 0 chans att utbetalningsmyndigheten kommer stoppa tillräckligt mycket fusk för att inte gå massivt back, men det spelar ingen roll. Syftet är inte att stoppa fuskare, utan att göra livet svårare för alla människor som har rätt till bidrag.

Man hör ju redan högermän måla upp skräckscenarier om ökade sjuktal. Nej, sjuktalen har inte ökat det är sjuktal som tidigare dolts i statistiken pga att sjuka inte haft råd att vara sjuka.

Om karensen slopas kommer säkert högern mena att en uppgång av sjukskrivningstalen är synonymt med uppgången av fuskandet. Men egentligen visar det mest hur många som under decennier gått till jobbet fast dom borde varit hemma

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

Tillägg till Ola:

1. Den här ökningen är i sig välkommen, eftersom vi vet att behoven ökat i flera år. Att vi inte sett en ökning tidigare tyder på att folk som behöver försörjningsstöd inte har fått.
2. Detta har inget med invandring att göra.
