"It wasn't a seig heil" Hey man, I'm gonna be honest. I get that it's possible that you're that stupid, but I'm not.

There are so many good people in the world, but it's the bad ones that pursue power. That's how we ended up with today's world. The only answer is to build a world where no person can have power over another.

This is so incredibly cool. Also, imagine the crackdown if drug dealers started carrying pirate medicine. In related news, lemme pitch a show far superior to Breaking Bad.
Anarchist collective teach people how to make pirated versions of expensive pharma drugs using precursor ingredients. "A course of Solvadi, the drug by Gilead that cures Hepatitis C, costs $83,000. We made it for $70."

I still can't get over how bad AI has become. And this is coming from a computer scientist who spent over a decade studying and programming AI. I fucking LOVE AI, but here are 10 reasons I absolutely fucking hate it now, a 🧵 ...

I beg your fucking pardon?! "*Where's Daddy?* system" I'm not sure how this is remotely compatible with our values, @AuswaertigesAmt or how we can continue to supply arms to a country that had a system specifically to schedule strikes so as to kill families.
I spoke with Israeli intelligence officers about the AI-based target machine they used which marked 37,000 Gazans as suspects for assassination. These whistleblowers expose numerous machines & policies that killed thousands of civilians since October. https://t.co/462q4P6y2q

In light of the depressing news about AI-based military target generation: Aside from the fact that this appears ethically insane, it also seems *mathematically* insane: Whatever your training / validation data is, it is certain that your airstrikes are changing the underlying…

The Netanyahu regime now pulling off the rare feat of violating both the Geneva Conventions and the Vienna Convention—at the same time. You're living through history, folks.
This morning began with the revelation of Israel’s gruesome Shifa Hospital massacre. A few hours later, Israel bombed a diplomatic compound - an embassy - in Syria. Tonight it has murdered several foreign aid workers in an airstrike on their car in Gaza.

We went to #Muskoka to make maple syrup with B's folks. 🍁 So here is the process: 1. Maple sap drips into buckets from the trees. 2. Gotta collect a lot of it, filter, and boil it down to syrup. The ratio is usually about 35:1. 3. Filter the syrup again and put it in jars.

Setting: a physics conference in Warsaw organized by my grandfather in the 1950s or 60s. Soviet delegate Vladimir Fock makes a speech about how Einstein and Infeld are imperialist reactionaries.

#threebodyproblem I'm going to tell you about a much more realistic version of that opening scene btw that actually happened to my grandfather Leopold.

The #threebodyproblem show really leans into the stuff the book got wrong. Like physicists being driven mad when experimental results get wacky. In truth, physicists would be STOKED. The biggest problem in physics is that it's pretty saturated with nothing new to interpret.
