Trump's latest demand: Washington football and Cleveland baseball teams should change names back
President Donald Trump has called for Washington's football team and Cleveland's baseball team to return to their previous names. On Sunday, Trump posted on Truth Social urging the Washington Commanders to revert to the Redskins and the Cleveland Guardians to return to the Indians. He claimed there is significant public support for the change, citing heritage and tradition. However, both teams have stated they have no plans to revisit the name changes. The Commanders and Guardians adopted their…

Using Real Names of Disabled Participant-Contributors to Practice Citational Justice in Accessibility
In accessibility research involving human subjects, researchers conventionally anonymize their research participants to protect privacy. However, a lack of intentionality about who to publicly acknowledge for intellectual contributions to research can lead to the erasure of disabled individuals' work and knowledge. In this paper, I propose identifying disabled research participants by name (with consent) as a practice of citational justice. I share observations from examples of this practice in…

Seven episodes into “Foundation” and I’m mostly only watching it now to see how much farther astray it goes. Curious if season 1 even gets past its wildly variant version of chapter two of the first book.
At least unlike “I, Robot” this one kept names and starting plot.

One of the main problems with Game of Thrones, and why I never got into it, is that there's too many characters. There's like a fuckin million characters and I'm not remembering all those names and connections. I can't even remember my parents' birthdays

Fun fact: in #Polish, all cardinal directions have the same names as times of day. East is "wschód" which means "rise" (as in sunrise, "wschód słońca"), west is "zachód" — "set" (as in sunset, "zachód słońca"). North is "północ", lit. "midnight", and south is "południe", lit. "midday".
Apparently, the #English etymology is not so clear. "West" and "east" seem to unrecognizably stem from the words for evening and dawn. "South" seem to be related to "sun", whereas "north" to "to the left of the rising sun".

An LLM Agent-Based Complex Semantic Table Annotation Approach
The Semantic Table Annotation (STA) task, which includes Column Type Annotation (CTA) and Cell Entity Annotation (CEA), maps table contents to ontology entities and plays important roles in various semantic applications. However, complex tables often pose challenges such as semantic loss of column names or cell values, strict ontological hierarchy requirements, homonyms, spelling errors, and abbreviations, which hinder annotation accuracy. To address these issues, this paper proposes an LLM-bas…

Calamus 37 A leaf for hand in hand!
I continue to have little patience for these Whitman entreaties to American unity. The recitation of place names does little for me. But I do appreciate that he's talking more about loving unity between men than some abstract political message.
You friendly boatmen and mechanics! You roughs! ...
I wish to infuse myself among you till I see it common for you to walk hand in hand.
That's the gay part there. It's pretty mild, but still seems striking of talking about two boatmen or mechanics walking holding hands. One might even see an appeal to rough trade.
I am beginning to understand this Whitman concept of "adhesiveness", a brotherly love that could unify a nation. I still prefer a more sexual gay reading but I think his poems work in both ways.

Gotta love the ridiculous names kids make up for stuffed animals.
So far we have Hensapiko the mermaid, Beeba the tiger, Kentabina the bunny... There's more but these are some of the more memorable (and absurd) ones.

Future generations will learn:
• That Israel committed genocide in Palestine.
• That “The West” allowed it to happen and many Western countries profited and were complicit in it.
• The names of those who were complicit.
This isn’t a call to change your behaviour. At this point, we know very well who stands on which side of history.
This is just a reminder to be prepared because justice will be served.

PLpol, pseudoliberalism
Tell me, is a "liberal" the kind of person to claim that a woman must not become a president, as she'll get mad with power? Does a "liberal" declare their tolerance for specific people by using insulting names for them? Does a "liberal" call certain minorities "loafers"? Does a "liberal" support dismantling public services for "cost reduction"? Yet these are the views held by the voters of PO/KO, the Polish party often called "liberal".
It is not a liberal party, and it won't be one, because they have too much to lose. For years now, they exist only as an alternative to the "conservative" PiS party — not as something truly opposite, but as a comfortable alternative that's not all that different. So the Polish can gladly focus their contrarian, hateful nature into voting against one or the other party, without having to worry too much that some immoral rainbow force will try to shatter the bubble of their worldview.
