Tech ain't that deep - and that's a problem | deadSimpleTech
With that in mind, it became fairly clear to me that the tech industry these days has a depth problem: as much as tech is becoming quite a bit more complex, it's also becoming shallower. Learning new things in tech these days, as often as not, simply doesn't give me the same feeling of satisfaction or achievement as learning or writing C back in the first years of my career did. Being effective in tech these days feels as though it's less about understanding than it is about memorising a big li…

Injury Didn't Stop CeeDee Lamb From Being Elite Deep Threat for Cowboys in 2025 https://www.si.com/nfl/cowboys/onsi/injury-didnt-stop-ceedee-lamb-elite-deep-threat-dallas-cowboys-2025

🧵 1/3
I've followed the story of Anthropic's new Mythose model. Some say the Project Glasswing stuff is, at its root, just a marketing stunt; others say this is a really, really big deal. The truth, no doubt, is somewhere in the middle, and I don't have any particular insight there.
But it does sound like this new model shows particular improvement at chaining together multiple bugs and vulnerabilities to create exploits.
We are seeing lots of very deep research…

So one of the authors is Nicholas Carlini, who works for Anthropic. This is basically an ad for the three letter agencies to use Claude. It massively over-promises compared to what the actual paper says.
But, it is important. First, this is really about silencing people. The threat of identification is designed to make people afraid to talk online. There's a massive asymmetry between the fascists and the people. The fascists are weird racists and pedophiles who are obsessed with control. No one likes them. No one likes their ideas, because their ideas are creepy and bad.
When they talk about their ideas, that people should be murdered or kidnaped based on their skin color, that there should be a national dress code, that people's sex lives should be monitored, that children should be treated like objects that are owned by the parent (specifically, one parent), that people with different skin color or uteri should be considered as livestock, people fucking hate it because it's awful. When we talk about our ideas, that everyone should be able to eat and take care of themselves, that people who can't take care of themselves should be taken care of, that we should live in a society that values life, that we should live in harmony with nature, people like those ideas. When fascists out us for talking about those ideas, people support us. When we out people who are working as fascist goons those people have to face social consequences.
Everyone hates these people. The US government is currently less popular than it has ever been. The only way they can keep power is by making everyone think that they aren't extraordinarily unpopular. The only way to do that, the way authoritarian have always done it, is to make everyone afraid to talk.
But, yes, what this paper is saying is actually kind of bad. It looks like people who don't take any precautions at all in separating identities can be identified about 30% of the time (based on the results). It's unclear how this will actually work in the real world. Larger corpses will probably have more data, making connecting things easier.
This isn't as good as a human trying to dox someone. It's not going to work as well. It may only work in a small number of cases. There will be false positives (just like there are with people doing the work). It's probably not cheaper than hiring people. But it does mean that you can just dump money into a machine that has no ethical framework and get data out. That's the point. It's hard to find humans who will do evil shit like help dictatorships target human rights activists, but if a machine can do it for twice the price then it's a better deal for the dictatorship.
For most people, you just shouldn't care. This isn't for you. As long as you keep doing what you're doing, and you can keep everyone else doing what they're doing, then there aren't enough resources to actually target you. Even if they know who you are, there are just too many people who hate them and too few goons.
For people who might actually be targeted, there are a lot of things. First, keep in mind what you're putting into anonymous accounts. Any feature that's connected to your real life is a feature that can be extracted to identify you. This has always been true, it just may be easier to find now. Your identities should be totally siloed. It's also harder to identify you if you're writing anonymously as a collective. Collectives are better anyway because they can help check your thinking. When you write as a collective, you can help clean up each other's personal details and language. A collective develops its own voice, which is distinct from individual contributors. If you do this, and you also present your work as being from one "person," then it becomes even harder for anyone (systems or individuals) to really figure it out.
I'm not going to do a full deep dive on this because I just don't have time, but your existing threat model should *already cover these threats* if you need to make sure your writing remains anonymous.
This paper doesn't present any novel methodologies. It just extracts a bunch of features, which a human would extract as notes, and tries to correlate those between identities, which is how human researchers work. Linguistic forensics were mentioned (not by name) in the paper, but the actual methodology doesn't actually seem to use them.
So a thing with less ethics can do a worse job for more money (when adjusted for the real, not investor deflated, price of tokens). It's worth knowing. It's not the end of the world, but it is a good reminder to check your threat model and make sure it's up to date.

Yet another all-day power outage scheduled for tomorrow. Have rigged up a deep-cycle battery and an inverter to run the heating plate in the brooder. 54 watts for one suitable for up to 80 chicks!

Basically 8x 100Ah batteries @ €150 each.

Precipitation diffusion downscaling and application to out-of-distribution simulations with and without stratospheric aerosol injection
Cameron Dong, James W. Hurrell, Elizabeth A. Barnes
https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.23776 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2605.23776 https://arxiv.org/html/2605.23776
arXiv:2605.23776v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI), a possible climate engineering strategy where reflective particles are injected into the stratosphere, has been explored to mitigate global warming and its associated risks, such as the intensification of extreme precipitation events. However, current Earth system models (ESMs) often used to simulate SAI and other climate change scenarios are too coarse to properly assess such risks. Traditional statistical downscaling methods, used to project higher resolution impacts, may be biased and unrealistic. To address this, we train a deep learning diffusion downscaler to generate 0.25{\deg} contiguous United States (CONUS) daily precipitation using historical and future climate simulations from the Mesoscale Atmosphere-Ocean Interaction in Seasonal-to-Decadal Climate Prediction (MESACLIP) project, then apply the diffusion downscaler to out-of-distribution CESM2 simulations with and without SAI. The diffusion model generates realistic downscaled precipitation using either MESACLIP or CESM2 inputs. It also faithfully recreates the climate change projections of extreme precipitation in MESACLIP. Diffusion-downscaled projections of the future CESM2 SAI scenarios suggest that SAI could nearly cut in half the CONUS-average increase in yearly max precipitation, compared to the non-SAI scenario. However, there is considerable regional variation and internal variability, with SAI modeled to only slightly reduce increases in extreme precipitation frequency in the Mid Atlantic and the Pacific Northwest, but mitigating most intensification in other regions. Future application of diffusion downscaling to a wider variety of SAI scenarios would provide valuable insight into how proposed SAI strategies may affect precipitation variability on fine spatial scales for regional impact assessments.

Abstract: Deepfake news refers to AI-generated (or AI ma-nipulated) multimedia content intentionally generated to deceive audiences by manipulating the facial expressions, or speech while maintaining the realistic appearance. The rapid progress of generative AI has made the synthesis of highly realistic fake videos and cloned voices widely accessible, posing a serious threat to the authenticity of digital news media. This paper presents a multi-modal framework that discerns the authenticity of video content by jointly exploiting audio and visual cues, thereby addressing the challenge of detecting the deepfake videos. We proposed a framework that involves features extraction from lip movements, audio content and video frames. Lip movements and speech content are encoded using the LipNet and DeepSpeech2 models, while facial features are extracted by leveraging the use of BlazeFace and represented with ResNet18. The extracted feature vectors are concatenated into a holistic video representation and classified with an ensemble of machine learning and deep learning models, including Random Forest (RF), Multi-layer Perceptron (MLP) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks. Exten-sive experiments performed on the FakeAVCeleb dataset shows that the proposed approach attains an accuracy of 94% using augmented audio features, outperforming a state-of-the-art multi-modal ensemble baseline. The results confirm the robustness and practical potential of the proposed framework for deepfake news detection.

At Cornell University in upstate New York, researchers are testing how a deep geothermal system can work
far from the tectonic boundaries and volcanoes that have long defined where distributing their energy is even viable.  
By tapping into the planet's internal warmth, the project, known as
"Earth Source Heat",
could supply the 2,300-acre
(931-hectare) campus in Ithaca with fossil fuel-free heat to help the university become carbon neutral by 2035.…

How geothermal energy could power US homes
Advancements in geothermal systems and sustained political support in the US provide an opportunity for this clean energy industry to scale.

The result that should really cause you to update your beliefs about this year’s midterms is not in the topline or the Times’ official reporting, but hidden deep in the poll’s crosstabs.
A big story of the 2024 election was that Donald Trump made inroads with non-voters who traditionally leaned Democratic, and even got some of them to turn out for him.
But now it’s looking like he has squandered those gains and put his party on the path to midterm defeat in the House
— an…

Independents and 2024 non-voters have swung back left
The big story in the new NYT/Siena poll isn't Trump's 37% approval (although that's very bad) — it's a 24-point swing among persuadable voters

The House Appropriations Committee approved the FY2027 Commerce-Justice-Science (CJS) bill today, rejecting deep cuts proposed by the Trump Administration: #NASA activities like science, which would get $1.3 billion less than current spending.
