'Just Desperate for a Paycheck': Sen. Tim Scott Mercilessly Mocked for Jumping In to Defend Trump Who 'Abandoned His A--' to Take Shots At Elon Musk In Growing Billionaire Feud

The difference between Ukraine and Russia attacks is clear. Ukraine hits primarily military targets, Russia primarily civilian targets.
We should keep doing everything we can to help Ukraine defend it's civilian centers.

Nottingham May Day march
Lining up for the march now. More banners popping up! UCU, Unite, XR, Defend Ukraine, No Cuts, a handmade placard about Sherwood Library. I brought a rainbow flag myself.

Misalignment or misuse? The AGI alignment tradeoff
Creating systems that are aligned with our goals is seen as a leading approach to create safe and beneficial AI in both leading AI companies and the academic field of AI safety. We defend the view that misaligned AGI - future, generally intelligent (robotic) AI agents - poses catastrophic risks. At the same time, we support the view that aligned AGI creates a substantial risk of catastrophic misuse by humans. While both risks are severe and stand in tension with one another, we show that - in p…

A Systematic Review of Metaheuristics-Based and Machine Learning-Driven Intrusion Detection Systems in IoT
The widespread adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) has raised a new challenge for developers since it is prone to known and unknown cyberattacks due to its heterogeneity, flexibility, and close connectivity. To defend against such security breaches, researchers have focused on building sophisticated intrusion detection systems (IDSs) using machine learning (ML) techniques. Although these algorithms notably improve detection performance, they require excessive computing power and resources,…

Jon Ossof's fundraising has slowed dramatically since Marjorie Taylor Greene said she wasn't running.
And Republicans are ramping up their attacks and their spending against Jon.
The timing is not great, to say the least.
You made your last donation to Jon Ossoff in 2020 -- Thank you for that.
But if we are going to reach our goals and defend this seat, Jon needs you one more time.
Can you do it? For Jon? To hold this seat?

Computational adversarial risk analysis for general security games
This paper provides an efficient computational scheme to handle general security games from an adversarial risk analysis perspective. Two cases in relation to single-stage and multi-stage simultaneous defend-attack games motivate our approach to general setups which uses bi-agent influence diagrams as underlying problem structure and augmented probability simulation as core computational methodology. Theoretical convergence and numerical, modeling, and implementation issues are thoroughly discu…

Packed up my XBOX and large TV in the basement today :-(
I don't play video games every day, but 2 or 3 days a week, my daughter, who lives in Toronto, and I will play Halo online and defend the universe from Covenant forces. It's now 22 days until the moving trucks arrive, and planning for activities each day is underway. We have to allocate time for yard maintenance, packing, and cleaning. Accompanying music choices are important...

Что нужно знать о порядочности Дурова:
Забанить канал координации кандидатов в России во время выборов — так точно, тов. майор! :blobcatsalute:
Забанить канал координации кандидатов в Румынии во время выборов — мы не позволим разрушать демократию. Твердо и четко! :blobancap:

🧵
Local outlets did *much* better than "Big Journalism" covering the #handsoff pro-democracy demonstrations.
Newsroom leaders need to defend democracy from autocracy.
See examples of good (and bad) coverage in our latest blog post.

In a conversation about the social effects of some new or emerging technology I often here the bromide "technology is neutral." The idea being that some manifestation of tech has no intrinsic value.
Facebook is trying to bring a wearable AR product to market, it will record everything you look at and use facial recognition to track people around you. Facebook has a track record of being evil, so trying to defend the product by saying "well, Facebook might be bad, but tec…
