@hex@kolektiva.socialAfter the whole Adam Something "dating advice for leftist men" thing, I realized I should probably write something about that. I didn't, but I realized I should. Here I am sort of getting around to it.
I had a friend call me an "elder" at one point. I was like 35 at that time, but like... a lot of old leftists are just dead or in prison, so we take what we can get I guess. Being also an elder in the sense that I'm an elder millennial, who is also a parent and married for almost 10 years and all that, I guess I'm technically qualified.
So here it is, dating advice for (straight cis) leftist men:
1. Don't.
That's it, actually. That's the whole thing. Let me explain a bit.
First of all, this is dating advice for neuroatypical folks. We're way overrepresented in both extremes because this system wasn't built for us. And that's who is *the most* confused by all the relationship stuff, and most likely to try to apply all this masculinity/manosphere bullshit. I'm also talking a bit from experience here, as a neruo-spicy trying to "figure out" how to date within a paradigm entirely built around neurotypicals and their relationships. It's garbage. Throw it out. There's nothing worth saving.
His video had some line comparing not having sex to your house being on fire. I'm not gonna bother to quote it because I'm busy with actual life. But like, that's exactly what I'm talking about. I recognize that and it's horribly destructive. Men who buy in to patriarchy actually believe this, because those men value themselves based on (hetro) sex. Yeah, if you think you're worthless because you aren't "getting laid" then yeah, you're gonna feel like that's an emergency.
"Dating" as a paradigm turns humans into roles. It dehumanizes us all, and thus makes human connection much harder. It is a game that, like thermonuclear war, can only be won by not playing.
When you abandon "dating" and just act like a human, everything starts to be easier. There's no such thing as being "friend zoned" because you're just friends. Sometimes friendships become other things, sometimes they don't. It doesn't actually matter, because if you're actually there for friendship then you don't *need* anything else.
My grandma, at 98 I think, gave me some advice. My grandparents always got along well, and were married for enough decades that I listened really closely. She told me I should just do things I loved to do and everything else would work itself out.
And it kind of did.
I understand the fear, the idea that you'll die alone. I get that. I get the loneliness. It all hits a lot harder when you have ADHD emotions and past trauma. I get that. But that fear is self-manifesting. When you build your confidence, when you don't *need* to be "in a relationship," you have more room to actually build relationships. For me, dating was dehumanizing. When I abandoned that, I was able to actually be a good partner, and I was able to find my partner.
I would advise against marriage as well, but we did get married for legal reasons. It can still be hard to maintain that, to see each other as people rather than roles. That becomes extra hard as parents. But the times that we cut through that are the times we're closest. Those are the times when it becomes easier to remember that we're both humans and all human relationships need tending.
Roles don't need to be tended because they are classifications. Classifications are static. But relationships between humans are not. Humans are messy and chaotic. Humans have all kinds of complex needs and desires.
So yeah, don't date. Just be a human and see what happens. Maybe google "relationship anarchy" and see where it takes you.
If you have ADHD, it can be especially useful to understand that relationships with neurotypical folks can be especially difficult. Assume you're incompatible with 90% of the population as your baseline, and you'll start to understand why the standard "dating" thing has made you feel so alienated and miserable.
Neurotypical folks generally have no idea that atypicality exists, much less how it impacts relationships. Having to conform to a neurotypical relationship just adds additional mental strain unless you find someone (really special) who can do at least some of the work.
The ADHD thing was especially important for me. There were so many things I was told to do in specific ways by neurotypicals that never worked for me. Their advice always made me feel like a failure. When I was finally diagnosed, I realized they were just giving advice for the wrong type of brain. It was advice I could never use. Basically all dating advice I ever got fell into this same category.
That's my braindump. Maybe I'll develop it more in the future, but I'm busy so maybe not. I hope it helps someone who is struggling like I was.

arXiv:2603.27786v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We generalize fundamental notions of higher algebra, traditionally developed within the $\infty$-category of spectra, to the broader setting of $t$-structured tensor triangulated $\infty$-categories ($ttt$-$\infty$-categories). Under a natural structural condition, which we call "projective rigidity", we establish higher categorical analogues of Lazard's theorem and prove the existence and universal property of Cohn localizations. Furthermore, we generalize higher almost ring theory to the $ttt$-$\infty$-categorical setting, showing that $\pi_0$-epimorphic idempotent algebras are in natural bijection with idempotent ideals. By exploiting deformation theory, we establish a general \'etale rigidity theorem, proving that the $\infty$-category of \'etale algebras over a fixed connective base is completely determined by its discrete counterpart. Finally, we characterize the moduli of such projectively rigid $ttt$-$\infty$-categories, demonstrating that the presheaf $\infty$-category on the 1-dimensional framed cobordism $\infty$-category serves as the universal projectively rigid $ttt$-$\infty$-category.

@tiotasram@kolektiva.socialAlso: we're seeing what happens when white people are actually motivated en-masse (and the George Floyd response was actually another decent example of this).
General strike -> capitalist class goes "oh shit we need to deescalate" -> temporary reprieve.
White people actually putting their bodies on the line (or at least near enough to it that ICE killed them) got results. This is direct evidence of just how much oppression depends on the social fragmentation it invests immense energy into creating in order to not get its ass kicked both ideologically and literally.
Also for those white people like me who are scared to participate: I don't have the numbers, but there were something like 50,000 people who stood up (even if we just want to count observers and joiners-of-whistle-crowds I'd guess at least 5,000-10,000). Two in that category died (more like 30 have died in the direct-targets-of-ICE category). So don't look at Pretti and think "protesting is so risky." Consider that both the odds of being the one or two killed are low, and that if you don't stand up quickly and strongly enough against this shit, the body count will grow much higher.
This isn't over, and continued escalation and resistance is super critical now. Rather than hoping the twin cities story is a story of heroes elsewhere who solved the problem, make it a story of an inspiring example that gets replicated in LA, Chicago, and all around the nation where ICE is trying to metastasize into an unaccountable secret police.

@inthehands@hachyderm.io2. This danger / toxicity is not a necessary, intrinsic property of social media; it happened by •design•. Social interaction doesn’t suddenly become a new kind of psychologically toxic just because it happens on a screen. That happens when huge amounts of investment money pour into exploiting the human vulnerability of humans, weaponizing our own psychology to turn our social needs into a money pump, sucking us dry for profit. It’s a business model in the same category as casinos and diet pills.

arXiv:2603.25432v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Motivated by the desire for a new kind of approximation, we define a type of localization called pixelation. We present how pixelation manifests in representation theory and in the study of sites and sheaves. A path category is constructed from a set, a collection of "paths" into the set, and an equivalence relation on the paths. A screen is a partition of the set that respects the paths and equivalence relation. For a commutative ring, we also enrich the path category over its modules (=linearize the category with respect to the ring) and quotient by an ideal generated by paths (possibly 0). The pixelation is the localization of a path category, or the enriched quotient, with respect to a screen. The localization has useful properties and serves as an approximation of the original category. As applications, we use pixelations to provide a new point of view of the Zariski topology of localized ring spectra, provide a parallel story to a ringed space and sheaves of modules, and construct a categorical generalization of higher Auslander algebras of type $A$.

Abstract: Federated Semi-Supervised Learning (FSSL) aims to collaboratively train a global model across clients by leveraging partially-annotated local data in a privacy-preserving manner. In FSSL, data heterogeneity is a challenging issue, which exists both across clients and within clients. External heterogeneity refers to the data distribution discrepancy across different clients, while internal heterogeneity represents the mismatch between labeled and unlabeled data within clients. Most FSSL methods typically design fixed or dynamic parameter aggregation strategies to collect client knowledge on the server (external) and / or filter out low-confidence unlabeled samples to reduce mistakes in local client (internal). But, the former is hard to precisely fit the ideal global distribution via direct weights, and the latter results in fewer data participation into FL training. To this end, we propose a proxy-guided framework called ProxyFL that focuses on simultaneously mitigating external and internal heterogeneity via a unified proxy. I.e., we consider the learnable weights of classifier as proxy to simulate the category distribution both locally and globally. For external, we explicitly optimize global proxy against outliers instead of direct weights; for internal, we re-include the discarded samples into training by a positive-negative proxy pool to mitigate the impact of potentially-incorrect pseudo-labels. Insight experiments & theoretical analysis show our significant performance and convergence in FSSL.

Abstract: In this short note, we study dg categories with homotopy kernels, whose homotopy categories are known to admit a natural left triangulated structure. Prototypical examples of such dg categories arise as dg quotients of exact dg categories. We demonstrate that the stablization of the homotopy category of such a dg category admits a canonical dg enhancement via its bounded derived dg category.

In an earlier post I introduced the principle that there were four categories of side hustle. Let’s talk about the first category.
Employee-style side hustles pay you for hours worked.
Examples:
• Gig work
• Freelancing by the hour
• Part-time jobs
𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐬:
✔ Easy to start
✔ Immediate income
✔ Low learning curve
𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬:
✖ No leverage
✖ No scalability
✖ Income stops when time stops
💡 These hustles can help short-term – but they rarely change your financial future.
𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:
Are you building income… or just filling time?

Abstract: Let $S$ be a right group. Then there exist two congruences $\sim$ and $\equiv$ on $S$ such that $S$ is the product of its quotient semigroups $S/{\sim}$ and $S/{\equiv}$, where $S/{\sim}$ is a group and $S/{\equiv}$ is a right zero semigroup. If $E$ is the set of all idempotents of $S$ and we fix an element $e_0\in E$, then the pointed right group $(S,e_0)$ is the coproduct of its pointed subsemigroups $(Se_0,e_0)$ and $(E,e_0)$ in the category of pointed right groups. In general, there is a pretorsion theory in the category of right groups in which the torsion objects are right zero semigroups and the torsion-free objects are groups.

@pre@boing.worldSubscriptions and memberships that passively renewed despite months of disuse. Introductory pricing that sneakily doubled after the trial period. Each one was rebranded as a hostage situation that agents could negotiate. The average customer lifetime value, the metric the entire subscription economy was built on, distinctly declined.
...
Any category where the service provider’s value proposition was ultimately “I will navigate complexity that you find tedious” was disrupted, as the agents found nothing tedious.
😆 Disenshitification by AI would be quite a reversal of the current trends.
[...Door-dash is disintermediated by AI...]
This was oddly poetic, as perhaps the only example in this entire saga of agents doing a favor for the soon-to-be-displaced white collar workers. When they ended up as delivery drivers, at least half their earnings weren’t going to Uber and DoorDash. Of course, this favor from technology didn’t last for long as autonomous vehicles proliferated.
😆
