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…

Seeing usually smart folks getting rope-a-doped into arguing for LLM utility like there's a moral justice zero-sum trolley-problem slider between "useful" and "ethical" and we're just arguing about the best setting
But the real problem is even dumber
-is its mere use a climate disaster? Yes
-is its data provenance founded on theft? Also yes
-will it be used to ruin ordinary workers' lives? Yup
-will it ruin countless organizations wh…

Exact Turán number of the Fano plane in the $\ell_2$-norm
A classical object in hypergraph Turán theory is the Fano plane $\mathbb{F}$, the unique linear $3$-graph on seven vertices with seven edges. The Turán density and exact Turán number of $\mathbb{F}$, first proposed as a problem by Sós~\cite{Sos76} in the 1970s, were determined through a sequence of works by De Caen--Füredi \cite{DCF00}, Füredi-Simonovits \cite{FS05}, Keevash-Sudakov \cite{KS05}, and Bellmann-Reiher \cite{BR19}. Addressing a conjecture of Balogh--Clemen--Lidický \cite[C…

It feels like Trump is running into the inherent problems of international diplomacy among a world order of autocrats.
He tells Putin to stop bombing Ukraine, Putin says yes and does no. He tells Netanyahu to stop attacking Syria, Netanyahu says yes and does no.
Their nature as autocrats is that they do not respect a leader above them. They cannot be seen to respect a leader above them. Realists like Rutte are happy to play obsequious, but the "strong men" never will.

Yes, we are living in the future, fifteen years ago. But even back then, those who looked into the future were labeled as paranoid crackpots and negative propagandists, but they were right.

@… How weird is it to imagine there is someone out there who looks at this, and not only goes "Eh okay whatever" but actually thinks "YES! This is it! This will work! They will looooove this!".
Silicon Valley needs some serious group therapy sessions. Maybe we can all pitch in to cover the costs.

Guy next to me at the cafe I’m working out of this morning gets a call:
“… no we don’t live there anymore… no… no, we don’t live there anymore… are you serious?! [my ears perk up] Is this AI?… It is?!”
Spoke to him afterwards. Apparently “some energy company.” And it was an LLM on the other side. He said it sounded so real (a woman who gave him her name and sounded perfectly normal) until he asked it if it was AI when it responded “yes” and then restarted the script.
