So when you're transitioning it's ok but when others do it you don't like it

this would be the perfect job for John Mastodon

I really think instead of neutrality, the expression should be rebranded to something closer to actual reality.

Learned helplessness?

Kind of the mood of everything these days.

However, as the sad story with OpenSSL has shown people do not in fact recognize these risks in advance and act to prevent severe security issues.

Sitting at the dentist while reading this and I feel confident they’ll get to the root of it!

And C and D (eutschland)

On the other hand when was it a quiet time since early 2025?

As a hungarian it really feels like being Cassandra. Having lived through this once with the hungarian media landscape and oligarchic takeover - and now seeing that most people in the US do not know is happening.

Your point is entirely correct: propaganda works and it doesn’t have to be good

But Giorgio Moroder says we need a click

Die Grafik des VCÖ zeigt den Anteil der Personen ab 16 Jahren, die nie oder selten ein Auto lenken, nach Bundesländern, in Österreich, Männer, Frauen, 16-19-Jährige

Jeder Dritte in Österreich lenkt nie oder selten ein Auto, in Wien zwei Drittel und bei den 16- bis 19-Jährigen fast 70 Prozent. Mehr Bahn, Bus und Rad-Infrastruktur erhöhen Freiheit in der Mobilität, reduzieren Autoabhängigkeit. #Verkehrswende

This should be replicated in Norway.

Actually: in every single European country.

Would help if you would fix the many issues with cross-border rail so that less people are forced into cars

This is what you do with coup plotters and corrupt leaders

What I mean is the british govt is doubly incompetent here

It’s a double failure in the sense that PA was clearly infiltrated by russian agents (this is something they’ve been doing for decades nothing new) and the way the brit govt responded fulfilled ru goals about sowing discord

I would really like if someone replicated the thing, both to have replication by itself, and also to have more recent models measured.

(people love to complain about how models from 6-12 ago are ancient, and I'd love to see how much that moves the results if anything)

Do you know any study on similar methodological level to the METR study or one that replicates it?

I kind of kept my eye open but I haven’t found anything

This datacenter is an Akula class - it sucks so much energy off the grid

And in the end this is one out of three planks of the fucking scientific method.

The dispassionate mindset to take no one’s word for it least of all one’s own.

Not sure who said that “if you do your damn best not to fool yourself you’re already most of the way there”

I'm writing a presentation atm about using the scientific method to cut through the AI noise. Back to basics with philosophy of science with falsifiability, hypotheses interacting with experiments, medical history especially of RCTs and biases,...

This is not something you fix in an hour late friday.

The “we take action but it will take a few days” is entirely reasonable.

Rubio’s speech vs the media reporting on it.

Wtf am I reading in several media reports about reassurance re nato, that wasn’t what he said in the speech

Programmers still being required to review code in 3-5 years.

(I guess AI writing code is a bit like AI summarizing: the definition got retconned, “writing” is fulfilled by even autocomplete just like a “summary” is fulfilled by LLMs writing a tag cloud in prose)

I’m sorry - but no.

The US needs to work on democratic reforms for a relatively long time to win trust back. That’s the problem with trust: takes decades to build and can be squandered quite fast.

(Atm things do not tend toward democratic reforms in the US, even with a 2026 dem house win.)

Tbh this doesn’t hold a candle to Szájer’s Brussels gay sex party pipedrain escape

I can think of several things under wild mess and I think that tells everything.

“Pray tell, which mess do you mean exactly?”

yeah that's on Mastodon
