Western countries can watch this genocide unfold without lifting a finger. That is their prerogative. But what they cannot do – what they will never again be able to do – is to pretend that they give a damn about human rights or democracy or international law. What they cannot do is claim to be civilised.
If you cannot or will not stop genocide, you are not a civilised society.
You cannot lecture anyone on ethics or morals or values. You are barbarians who have accepted the law o…

NIJ-funded research has enhanced understanding of domestic terrorism, particularly the rise of far-right extremist violence in the U.S., which has outpaced other forms of terrorism. The studies reveal that radicalization processes vary by group and crime type, and highlight the importance of community-based prevention strategies. Key findings include the diversity of extremist beliefs and behaviors, the role of military experience in radicalization, and the need for targeted interventions to pr…

Can Current AI Models Count What We Mean, Not What They See? A Benchmark and Systematic Evaluation
Visual counting is a fundamental yet challenging task, especially when users need to count objects of a specific type in complex scenes. While recent models, including class-agnostic counting models and large vision-language models (VLMs), show promise in counting tasks, their ability to perform fine-grained, intent-driven counting remains unclear. In this paper, we introduce PairTally, a benchmark dataset specifically designed to evaluate fine-grained visual counting. Each of the 681 high-reso…

Forget What's Sensitive, Remember What Matters: Token-Level Differential Privacy in Memory Sculpting for Continual Learning
Continual Learning (CL) models, while adept at sequential knowledge acquisition, face significant and often overlooked privacy challenges due to accumulating diverse information. Traditional privacy methods, like a uniform Differential Privacy (DP) budget, indiscriminately protect all data, leading to substantial model utility degradation and hindering CL deployment in privacy-sensitive areas. To overcome this, we propose a privacy-enhanced continual learning (PeCL) framework that forgets what'…

We're slowly seeing what leftists always warned about in the UK: all these laws against 'terrorism' are now expanding the definition to be used against every day citizens, from authors being arrested for donating money to activist organizations or hundreds being arrested for protesting a genocide.
It's never just a word, never just a law, and it'll never just affect everyone but you.

The truth may be puzzling. It may take some work to grapple with. It may be counterintuitive. It may contradict deeply held prejudices. It may not be consonant with what we desperately want to be true. But our preferences do not determine what's true.

However, existing methods vary widely in prompting, architecture, and adaptation strategies, making it difficult to fairly compare design choices and identify what truly drives performance.
