When Married Women Couldn’t Teach, Massachusetts Unions Led The Fight
An often forgotten chapter in women’s labor history, the fight against marriage bans in Massachusetts eventually found success with activism, passionate union efforts, and nationwide economic change

Coalitions on the Fly in Cooperative Games
In this work, we examine a sequential setting of a cooperative game in which players arrive dynamically to form coalitions and complete tasks either together or individually, depending on the value created. Upon arrival, a new player as a decision maker faces two options: forming a new coalition or joining an existing one. We assume that players are greedy, i.e., they aim to maximize their rewards based on the information available at their arrival. The objective is to design an online value di…

As @pluralistic writes here, “the American right is a brittle coalition:”
https://pluralistic.net/2024/07/14/fracture-lines/
We imagine the right as monolithic at our peril. Reply guys love, love, love to lecture me about how These People are all the same. Here’s the thing: they are not, and imagining they are is self-defeating. The right has been •incredibly• effective at finding fracture points on the left and jamming a crowbar into them. It’s time we did the same.

Someone educate the admins at mastodon.social that holocaust and Holocaust are different things. Note the capitalisation.
What israel is perpetrating in Palestine is *a* holocaust, not *the* Holocaust. And yes, it is genocide. And yes, they’re also guilty of close to eight decades of apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and settler colonialism. All these things can be (and are) true at the same time.
Basically, if you’re defending israel in any way, shape, or form right now, you’re the w…

Even before the war with Iran started it was clear that even the best bunker buster bombs probably couldn't destroy the deepest facilities in Iran. It makes the rationality of a US participation in the war less clear, Israel doesn't need US help to destroy other kinds of targets.

Serving Large Language Models on Huawei CloudMatrix384
The rapid evolution of large language models (LLMs), driven by growing parameter scales, adoption of mixture-of-experts (MoE) architectures, and expanding context lengths, imposes unprecedented demands on AI infrastructure. Traditional AI clusters face limitations in compute intensity, memory bandwidth, inter-chip communication, and latency, compounded by variable workloads and strict service-level objectives. Addressing these issues requires fundamentally redesigned hardware-software integrati…

This from @… is spot on and incredibly important. And we need to recognize it as a crucial fracture point in the right-wing coalition.
