Four months ago, the Alaska supreme court approved both Dan Sullivans on the ballot.
The Alaska division of elections lists the Petersburg candidate as
“Sullivan, Daniel J Jr” without a party affiliation,
and the senator, Dan S Sullivan, as the incumbent Republican.
Criticism of the Alaska lawsuit has been deep and wide.
“Attention Alaska,” wrote Libby Bakalar, the municipal attorney for Bethel and a former assistant attorney general.
“Donald Trump is abu…

Mary Peltola made a mistake. But her Republican opponent would be a disaster for Alaska
Trump and Senator Dan Sullivan have put my home state on the chopping block. But Peltola understands Alaskans

Final call for proposals to the Alpaca Festival of Algorithmic Patterns in the Creative Arts!
Alpaca is a festival on Algorithmic Patterns in the Creative Arts comprised of live performances, workshops and conference talks. We aim to bring people together who value deep, human curiosity into patterns. We hope this call excites you whether you are exploring patterns in heritage crafts or contemporary algorithmic art (but not AI).

Some Middle Eastern powers are waking up to the threat to their sovereignty posed by a US system that consistently privileges Israel’s priorities.
It is early days, but for a Gulf state leader to call for a Gulf security pact that includes Iran,
as Badr Albusaidi, Oman’s foreign minister, did this week,
is a potential Berlin Wall moment.
The implication is that the US should no longer be the security provider for the Gulf.
Iran is viewed with deep suspicion acro…

As Trump fans the flames of a world on fire, can diplomacy take back control?
Amid the chaos, havoc and war caused by a capricious and amoral US president, countries are waking up to the dangers of being excluded and abused by America

"... ich frage mich zunehmend, welche Rolle wir Älteren in einer Gesellschaft übernehmen möchten, die häufig über Generationengrenzen hinweg organisiert ist. Vielleicht beginnt unsere besondere Aufgabe dort, wo wir unsere Erfahrungen zur Verfügung stellen, ohne daraus einen Anspruch auf Deutungshoheit abzuleiten.
Zuhören. Erzählen. Weitergeben. Von jüngeren Menschen lernen."

Woah, Puzzmo is soliciting web puzzle games for inclusion in the site. No details on payments or much business stuff, but "Zach [Gage] is interested in helping make your game feel like the best version of its idea it can be." What a draw!
Wish I wasn't deep in shipping my work game so I could put together something.

Good reflections by Bryan Cantrill on AI-experts and fear-mongering:
"We cannot expect the public to understand the inner workings of all technology ... : technology is too broad, too deep, and too core to all of our lives to expect everyone to understand everything; we must — at some level — trust domain experts. When those domain experts sow fear, it is the fear that takes root, propagating much more readily than any evidence that may follow it."

America's history of public executions isn't what you think it was.

America abandoned public executions for a good reason
The Trump administration's plans to livestream the execution of Nidal Hasan ran afoul of a deep-rooted aversion to bloody displays of state power going back to the colonial era.

Such racist assumptions about Minnesota — including from the racists who live here, the racists who (for example) murdered George Floyd — severely misestimate this place. It’s complicated and sometimes ugly complicated, as all places are, but the humanist undercurrents here run •very• deep.
ICE, Veritas, I don’t care. Minnesota may be nice, be we are pros, we take democracy seriously, and we are not fucking around.

It only takes a very rudimentary understanding of economics to see that, in the long run, the market price of running "agentic AI" (or whatever the latest buzz becomes) and the salary of any kind of knowledge worker can only be separated by a gap that's dependent on *management's* ability to tell their output apart.
There is a cosmic-scale gap between the long-term value to a company in paying a salary to a human vs. getting an LLM to "do" the "same" work, but it's a gap that many people are investing heavily in hiding right now, and CEOs and managers become incredibly gullible when you promise them they won't have to deal with humans who might ask for raises, even though it should be obvious you plan to jack up prices once they're locked in. They also aren't well-known for a deep understanding of how their workers actually generate value, and tend to be easily distracted by shiny but shallow demos, which is exactly what LLMs can produce well.
Even in the most optimistic scenario I can imagine for these developments, the myth of upward mobility that's been a lynchpin for defusing class solidarity among wage laborers is going to take a significant beating. There's a completely obvious game plan underway to try to use fascism to shore up the power of the wealthy against any kind of mass movement, and to play the ancient divide-and-conquer game along race and gender lines just as usual, so the range of outcomes is huge, but every time you use an LLM you're pushing this closer to a sharper conflict.

#SAROS Zenith’s Eclipse Layer 1 has me relearning the game. You must enable enough mods for the sum of their point values to equal 30. At 60, you reach “Crown Level 6”, but you can only enable qty. 8 mods to get there. This makes the game much harder, but it shows how deep the combat design goes 😈
