NATO boss Rutte (fmr Dutch PM) sends app to Trump, who promptly publishes it.
"Wow, your bombing of Iran was great; it makes the world a safer place!"
Straight from The Hague, formerly known as the International City of Peace and Justice. Awkward.

Mr President, dear Donald, 
Congratulations and thank you for your decisive action in Iran, that was truly extraordinary, and something no one else dared to do. It makes us all safer. 
You are flying into another big success in The Hague this evening. It was not easy but we've got them all signed onto 5 percent!

The H7 series UFBGA176 25 package is 0.65mm pitch, 0.29mm diameter solder balls. Their recommended pad diameter is 0.3mm which is odd, per IPC I think you'd normally want an 0.25mm land.
But where things get weird is the 0.8mm TFBGA240 25. It's 0.4mm diameter balls, so I would expect 0.3mm lands but…

Great reframing by Malcolm Harris at 52:50 here: When a capitalist says they need more profit to invest in something socially beneficial like housing, that profit is a fee they collect from the public, and a blockage that exists *because* there's a capitalist class that controls the money we need. That's really insightful and I'd never thought of it that way.

I still love how something as totally basic as slowing down sound can reveal textures, harmonics, & microstructures that would otherwise be missed. A fleeting impact unfolds into something spatial, musical, & emotionally resonant. High overtones drop into the audible range, transients dissolve into evolving timbres, & the familiar becomes beautifully uncanny. In slowing sound, we don’t just decelerate it; we uncover its inner architecture - its grain, its buried melodies.

Like, I think we should talk about #Epstein, not because I believe that if we make enough noise we could get the system to hold people involved accountable but, rather, because the system is built explicitly not to do that. It is fundimental. It cannot be fixed. Trump just found something he could latch on to and ran with it, with no concept of the consequences.
Trump thought he could exploit anger to seize power, which he did. But then he thought he could just throw those people away when he was done with them. This will blow up in his face, as long as we keep talking about it long enough.

Overly academic/distanced ethical discussions
Had a weird interaction with @/brainwane@social.coop just now. I misinterpreted one of their posts quoting someone else and I think the combination of that plus an interaction pattern where I'd assume their stance on something and respond critically to that ended up with me getting blocked. I don't have hard feelings exactly, and this post is only partly about this particular person, but I noticed something interesting by the end of the conversation that had been bothering me. They repeatedly criticized me for assuming what their position was, but never actually stated their position. They didn't say: "I'm bothered you assumed my position was X, it's actually Y." They just said "I'm bothered you assumed my position was X, please don't assume my position!" I get that it's annoying to have people respond to a straw man version of your argument, but when I in response asked some direct questions about what their position was, they gave some non-answers and then blocked me. It's entirely possible it's a coincidence, and they just happened to run out of patience on that iteration, but it makes me take their critique of my interactions a bit less seriously. I suspect that they just didn't want to hear what I was saying, while at the same time they wanted to feel as if they were someone who values public critique and open discussion of tricky issues (if anyone reading this post also followed our interaction and has a different opinion of my behavior, I'd be glad to hear it; it's possible In effectively being an asshole here and it would be useful to hear that if so).
In any case, the fact that at the end of the entire discussion, I'm realizing I still don't actually know their position on whether they think the AI use case in question is worthwhile feels odd. They praised the system on several occasions, albeit noting some drawbacks while doing so. They said that the system was possibly changing their anti-AI stance, but then got mad at me for assuming this meant that they thought this use-case was justified. Maybe they just haven't made up their mind yet but didn't want to say that?
Interestingly, in one of their own blog posts that got linked in the discussion, they discuss a different AI system, and despite listing a bunch of concrete harms, conclude that it's okay to use it. That's fine; I don't think *every* use of AI is wrong on balance, but what bothered me was that their post dismissed a number of real ethical issues by saying essentially "I haven't seen calls for a boycott over this issue, so it's not a reason to stop use." That's an extremely socially conformist version of ethics that doesn't sit well with me. The discussion also ended up linking this post: chelseatroy.com/2024/08/28/doe which bothered me in a related way. In it, Troy describes classroom teaching techniques for introducing and helping students explore the ethics of AI, and they seem mostly great. They avoid prescribing any particular correct stance, which is important when teaching given the power relationship, and they help students understand the limitations of their perspectives regarding global impacts, which is great. But the overall conclusion of the post is that "nobody is qualified to really judge global impacts, so we should focus on ways to improve outcomes instead of trying to judge them." This bothers me because we actually do have a responsibility to make decisive ethical judgments despite limitations of our perspectives. If we never commit to any ethical judgment against a technology because we think our perspective is too limited to know the true impacts (which I'll concede it invariably is) then we'll have to accept every technology without objection, limiting ourselves to trying to improve their impacts without opposing them. Given who currently controls most of the resources that go into exploration for new technologies, this stance is too permissive. Perhaps if our objection to a technology was absolute and instantly effective, I'd buy the argument that objecting without a deep global view of the long-term risks is dangerous. As things stand, I think that objecting to the development/use of certain technologies in certain contexts is necessary, and although there's a lot of uncertainly, I expect strongly enough that the overall outcomes of objection will be positive that I think it's a good thing to do.
The deeper point here I guess is that this kind of "things are too complicated, let's have a nuanced discussion where we don't come to any conclusions because we see a lot of unknowns along with definite harms" really bothers me.

When someone starts by saying something that makes you shake your head, but they end by saying something that makes you nod.
I bet there's a German word exactly for that feeling/experience. Something like "shakennoda"? 🤔

CALLY: Well, you know how close.
TARRANT: It's just that if the Aurons are responsible for this, I wonder what it is you did to upset them before you left.

Claude 3.7 describes the image as: "The image shows a scene from what appears to be a vintage television production, likely from the late 1970s or early 1980s based on the filming style and aesthetic. 

The person in the frame has curly hair and is wearing a light-colored collared shirt or jacket. Their expression suggests they're engaged in conversation or reacting to something happening in the scene.

A friend of mine was lamenting that they felt my partner and I do a lot for them and they don't evenly reciprocate so all I can really do is reply to them:

The amount of data we have is getting too big -- every time I want to try a performance optimization or something similar, things take hours just to move around, and that gets frustrating.

Feeling like moving this account to a GTS instance, would delete my Bsky and bridge it there and make it a one-for-all, but I want something like WP to tweak not GTS. It'd be cool if @… would consider a 10 buck a month plan for something like ClassicPress w/ ActivityPub, I imagine that's pretty light.

Always nice when you're typing something on Discord, Windows steals focus due to a file copy operation running (moving stuff from phone to PC) and does *something* as a result (cus it assumes you typing the message on Discord == you wanting to interact with said pop-up).
